From Freshwater Delights to Savory Roasts
While Bhutan is often associated with calm monasteries and vegetarian meals, it also has plenty to offer for non-veg food lovers. Whether you're looking for spicy chicken curry, beef momos, or grilled river trout, you'll find solid options in every major town.
Here's a regional guide to the best non-veg restaurants in Bhutan, including both local favorites and Indian-inspired spots.
As the main border entry for Indian tourists, Phuentsholing has a wide mix of Indian and Bhutanese non-veg cuisine.
Tip: Many restaurants serve both Indian and Bhutanese styles, so ask your server for their specialty.
Thimphu has the most variety when it comes to dining. You'll find everything from barbecue-style meats to Tibetan soups and pan-Asian cuisine.
Though smaller than Thimphu and Paro, Punakha has some great non-veg dishes served in tranquil riverside settings.
Try the local fried river trout if it's in season.
Paro’s food scene is cozy, with an emphasis on local Bhutanese ingredients and simple but tasty meat dishes.
Whether you're craving something spicy, meaty, or comforting after a day of hiking, Bhutan has just the right non-veg options to satisfy your appetite. The key is to keep your mind open, try local twists, and enjoy the pace of a place that cooks with care.
