You only visit once, never again.☹️

It looked nice when we passed the cafe on way to Safari. But very bad experience when we went there. Be ready for long wait for the order to be served. Pathetic service, overpriced food. Can't believe that 'Cafe' outlet was not able to serve tea. You have to request for spoon, salt n pepper, even water. ' All Glitter is not Gold'.

Great place for short break and clean set-up

Very quaint place but they need to serve really hot coffee. Super potential. Very well located next to the Oberoi Hotel and would love to visit whenever next in Rathambore.

Bad food, overpriced, pathetic service

Jan 2021 • Couples

The Dhonk cafe has absolutely terrible food, extremely slow service and is overpriced. The only thing good about this place is ambience.

Complete No No

Jan 2021 • Family

The place looked pretty nice from outside and situated near Oberoi it seemed from outside to offer good food. However the moment you enter and try placing the order you will start hearing NO from the non cooperative and sttuburn staff. They are really overpriced and nothing as easy as a coffee coming out from a CCD machine which would take seconds come before 30 mins and that too after asking them atleast twice. The shop also situated here is overpriced. I would say it's non indian friendly. Better avoid

Great Experience

Jan 2020

We visited the facility there where the local villagers have created wonderful crafts, and offer their wares for sale. We learned so much about the importance of this endeavor, and left with one of the best souvenirs from our trip. It's an incredibly beautiful embroidered piece of fabric that will hang in our home. We met the woman who did the handiwork and got a picture with her. We got some fun pajama bottoms with a hand blocked tiger print on it. Our visit was really was delightful.

Sit and chill

Perfect place to sit and chill. Good coffee at a reasonable price and great service. Would recommend a visit and a read of one of the books on Ranthambore National Park.

Fair trade local crafts and women empowerment

Feb 2020

Very friendly coop of women who are learning the trades of local crafts. Their learning local artisanal craft forms provides the women an income generating trade to support themselves and their communities. Provides fair trade clothes, table linens, toys, and other hand crafts to eco tourists at fair prices.

Ethical textile manufacturing and shop!

Oct 2019 • Friends

I loved Dhonk!
Set up several years ago to help local families transition from poaching tigers to providing for their families via an ethical trade, this place is fantastic.
Although not cheap (like a lot of shops in India), the pricing is reasonable. I think 60% of the sale price goes to the product maker (yay!)
I purchased a cute snowman to go on my Xmas tree, a hair scrunchie with a tiger print and my husband picked out a cool cushion cover with a tiger design.
I think the three items cost the equivalent of around £25 GBP. A lot cheaper than home!
The Dhonk centre is clean and welcoming. The staff are friendly. There are a million products to choose from- clothing, cosmetic bags, home furnishings, table cloths, dolls...
You can also see how traditional block printing is done. Very interesting.
Please go if you are in Ranthambore!
