Teahouses in Nepal are small lodges where you can eat, drink and stay on trekking trails in most areas of Nepal. The Nepalese use the word “bhatti”, which means “teahouse”, and teahouses are now well established on many trekking routes in Nepal. Treks in Nepal are often long, especially in the mountains, lasting from 6 to 25 days. And for those who don’t want to camp out in the mountains, teahouses are a great option for a good meal and a place to sleep.
The quality can vary, from nice lodges with soft beds and a restaurant to huts with stone and dal bhat, where you’ll find cold bunk rooms with straw mattresses. And in the higher areas, you’ll find the most basic teahouses.
