★★★★★ 5.0 Andrew Coles · Mar 2026

Touch of Nepal in the Butte. We are here after skiing and it really hit the spot. The place came highly recommended and we loved it. I got a variety of food like saag paneer, garlic naan, samosas dumplings and an amazing Sherpa stew. We also tried a mango smoothie that was delicious. Everything was freshly made from in house ingredients. We had great service and enjoyed their tales of hiking Everest. Everyone we talked to had been to Everest which just made the experience that much more memorable. We loved it so much we went back the next day lol.

Very good clean food, ample portions, calm vibe—everything you need after a day of mountain or outdoor adventures. A nice hot chai to warm up cold hands, if you just want a little nip. For meals, the Sherpa Stew is sure to please, as well as the Samosas. Highly pleased, and will come back for more!

After running up and down the mountain all afternoon, the Sherpa Cafe Sherpa Stew was soul fillin on a chilly quiet evening. Peppermint tea and the crispy pakora app very nice as well. Great / fast service at the doorstep of Elk Ave / main street CB

We stopped by Sherpa Cafe for dinner and it did not disappoint. Food was delicious. We ordered shrimp curry, samosas, chicken tikka, and two mango lassis. The food was good and not overly oily like we have had in other Indian/Nepali restaurants in mountain towns, so this was a great surprise. The naan was incredible. I’ve never had dates naan so I tried it here for the first time. It was so good that I’m borderline drooling typing about it right now.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Asha Shibu · Jul 2025

Stopped in at Sherpa Nepal Cafe while in Crested Butte and ordered the Chicken Curry and Lamb Tikka. Both dishes were decent but nothing particularly standout. The flavors were on the milder side—would’ve preferred a bit more spice and depth, especially for dishes like curry and tikka that usually carry more punch. The chicken and lamb was cooked well. Portion sizes were fair for the price, and service was friendly. Overall, not a bad meal, but probably wouldn’t go out of my way to return.
