TIMBER CAFE IMPHAL

5 star for the best restaurant in Manipur :)
You have got to try their Thai fried rice and lime juice.
Customer service is excellent. The good thing about this place is that even when it’s packed, your orders don’t take long. I love everything about this place; the decor is not overdone and you get a lovely view if you sit outside. I have one request though, the owner should really consider having some live music on weekends ;)

love the place but the main reason why we come here is the food. the ramen taste like samyang noodles, they just added some chicken and veggies. i only like the fried rice.
also the food is a bit expensive and the most disappointing things is they don't have all the menu i ask for beef and pork which wasn't available. stocked should be check all the time. ???? how can u have food shortage.

For me it was a 3 star restaurant.
Timbers got a good atmosphere, and its not overcrowded.
The servers were attentive and professional.
The value for money for non exotic items was good. And for exotic items like octopus was a little high as per the qty. Therefore 3 stars for the food being decent for the price.
So we ordered hotwings and stir fry octopus for starters, mains some Pad Thai noodles with pork and chichen something Spaghetti and probably some pork dish. With a coffee and shake for drinks.
The hot wings were either not fresh or overdone, the exterior was leathery and hard, the interior was out of juices. The octopus was a decent stir fry, I mean you can't go wrong with such an easy dish..
The mains were decent however lacked any wow factor which I thought comes with hype of Timber as a restaurant. Also we had to send a search party for the chicken and pork in the spaghetti and noodles respectively.

Things that made me uncomfortable are.. I waited 40 mins to use the washroom, coz staff were using it, and they were professional but not courteous, we were turned away as we arrived 10 mins before time, they could have let us sit and wait.

I had tried Popa earlier, a small restaurant and bakery nearby, the food and prices were better and a more courteous and homely atmosphere.
