Hard Rock Cafe Kathmandu will open its doors at Sherpa Mall, Durbar Marg, in the heart of Kathmandu later this month.

The cafe will feature a US-inspired menu, cocktails and even a culinary tribute to its new home city along with memorabilia from some of the music industry’s biggest names. It will be located on the first and top floor of the building and can accommodate up to 260 covers indoors as well as an outdoor terrace, looking over the roofs of Durbar Marg.

"Opening Hard Rock Cafe Kathmandu during 2021 has been a huge challenge for our partners, and we feel extremely proud to finally be able to announce the opening of this iconic cafe in the beautiful city of Kathmandu" said Anibal Fernandez, Vice President of Franchise Operations, Hard Rock International.

“We look forward once more to welcoming our Hard Rock fans in Kathmandu, Nepal, in a safe and Sound environment”, Fernandez added.

Customers will finally be able to taste the burgers which Hard Rock is famous for like the Legendary Burger with its proprietary blend of buffalo meat, with cheddar cheese, crispy onion ring, leaf lettuce and vine-ripened tomato, served with the restaurant’s signature steak sauce.

One of the stars of the menu is the baby back pork ribs, specifically imported from Denmark for Hard Rock Cafe Kathmandu. 750g of ribs, seasoned with a signature spice blend, then glazed with house-made barbecue sauce and grilled to perfection, served with seasoned fries, coleslaw and ranch-style beans.

Along with a selection of bottled beers and wines, there will be a range of ‘boozy milkshakes and signature cocktails including Hurricane– a 1940s New Orleans classic comprised of white rum, a blend of orange, mango, pineapple juice and grenadine, finished with a float dark rum and amaretto.

To complete the Hard Rock Cafe ambience, diners will be seated alongside glass cabinets filled with fascinating rock and roll memorabilia and for those keen to snap up a memento of their visit, they can purchase themed merchandise.
