Paakashala @ Udupi
A Pure-Veg Table: Minutes from Krishna Matha and Manipal
In the town that gave Udupi cuisine its name, a vegetarian restaurant has something to live up to. Paakashala Udupi sits 2–3 minutes from NH 66, eight minutes from Shri Krishna Matha and ten minutes from Manipal Institute of Technology, which makes it an easy stop for pilgrims, students and families heading down to the coast.
The kitchen works on three fronts. Udupi specialities appear daily, from Mangalore Buns and Goli Bajji to Kotte Kadubu, Mosaru Avalakki and Shavige Pulav, with rotating additions such as Sukkinunde and Uppittu avalakki through the week. South Indian and North Indian classics cover the rest of the day. And the continental section, with pizzas, pastas, burgers and sizzlers, has made the outlet a regular haunt for the Manipal crowd. A Hangyo ice-cream counter handles dessert on the way out.
As one of the best veg restaurants in Udupi, the outlet also takes on outdoor catering for weddings, family functions and college events. Ample parking for cars and buses and well-maintained washrooms round out a Udupi pure-veg restaurant that works as easily for a quick tiffin as for a full meal.

Frequently Asked Questions
Still have questions?
Our support team is here to help you with any queries
1. What are the must-try dishes at Paakashala Udupi?
The Udupi specialities are the reason to come here. Mangalore Buns, Goli Bajji, Kotte Kadubu, Mosaru Avalakki and Shavige Pulav are made daily, and dishes like Sukkinunde, Uppittu Avalakki and Akki Halbai rotate through the week. Beyond those, the dosas and filter coffee hold up well, and the sizzlers have their own following.
2. Is Paakashala Udupi a good spot for students from Manipal?
The outlet is about ten minutes from Manipal Institute of Technology, and the continental menu is built with that in mind. Pizzas, pastas, burgers and sizzlers sit alongside the South Indian and North Indian sections, and the Hangyo ice-cream counter makes for an easy finish. Seating and parking both work for a group.
3. Does Paakashala Udupi serve breakfast?
Breakfast is served, and it is the meal worth planning around here. Alongside idli, vada, dosa and filter coffee, the morning menu carries Udupi snacks made fresh each day, including Mangalore Buns, Kotte Kadubu and Mosaru Avalakki. Early risers heading to Krishna Matha or continuing along NH 66 will find it a straightforward first stop.
4. Does Paakashala Udupi handle outdoor catering?
Outdoor catering is available in and around Udupi for weddings, family functions and college or corporate events, with the same pure-vegetarian kitchen behind it. Menus can lean towards Udupi specialities, South and North Indian spreads or continental options depending on the occasion. Contact the outlet directly to discuss dates and numbers.
5. Is Paakashala close to Udupi’s main attractions?
Shri Krishna Matha is roughly eight minutes away and Manipal Institute of Technology about ten, with NH 66 just 2–3 minutes from the door. That fits it neatly into a morning at the temple or a campus run, and it works as a stop on the way to the beaches further west along the coast.
