You & I - Arts Cafe - Cafe in Shillong - East Khasi Hills, India

This Place has an authentic khasi touch to it... with variety of khasi meals & multiple options of tea being served here, one can indulge in the food and the ambience and feel close to nature. Their simple and famous boiled potato dish (Pham Saw) served with various herbs is a must try. Also the ice cream served here is too good, we tried passion fruit and berry blast flavour both were too good. Definitely a place to visit

If you want to try something offbeat but authentic when you are in shillong...this is one place you must visit. Their best seller the potato basket with herbs and butter is perfect for long conversations with friends and loved ones. I also tried their ice cream and juice and loved them both. Every thing is natural and organic. The staff is also approachable and patient with tourist. I am just happy that such a place exist.

One of the most amazing and good ambience place for good authentic khasi food. Any one visiting meghalaya and want to taste the authentic khasi food for them this is one of the best place. The place is unique and bound by tradition keeping the culture alive. We went for lunch a group of 7 people ordered most of the stuff and the amount was reasonable not expensive at all. The interior has been designed In a traditional way exhibiting music and arts The staffs are humble and have a friendly approach The lacking is in the transportation if you have your own vehicle it's fine but you are coming by public transportation then you might have a little bit towards to the main road to get taxi towards your destination Food 10/10 Service 10/10 Once you visit here you will visit again and again Regards Prasanth

I love this place. The traditional khasi food is the best. Phan Tungtap(Boiled potato with spicy dry fish chutni) , dohthad(smoked beef/pork) And the Roselle tea Anyone coming to Shillong or in Shillong and wants to try something new. Should definitely visit YOU & I- Arts Cafe.

It's a great place for local cuisine. You can basically get all types of tea here which is a plus for me . The way they decorate the place is unique compared to other cafe. It's such a good place for kids. Anyone can see that the owner did make a huge effort in making the place a beautiful one. I love how they have the fireplace too. Would definitely revisit and an advice for those who haven't visit yet the place please do.. It'll be worth. Keep up the great work guys.

The best place to visit if you're looking for authentic Khasi food. This place, located near Pine Air Bed and Breakfast is the best example on how to showcase any authentic traditions in its fullest sense, be it the food, interiors or the music. Cafe is built in hut model and interior is filled with items that denotes the tradition. Great customer service. If you're not into traditional Khasi food, you may find it difficult to like the taste. Enjoy your food listening to great music!

Well, nothing like an ugly welcome in Shillong by the owner of the You and I Arts Cafe. I was in the cafe for a couple of hours, spent close to a 1000 Rs through the day, working and enjoying what this cafe offers. The second time that I was there, I had the owner walk up to me and ask me how long I would be sitting in the cafe in front of the people already sitting there. Not only is it the heights of unprofessionalism, but it surely is not how anyone at any place should be treated. I was not creating trouble, sitting on my own in a corner, working on my laptop, never once asked for wifi access, always polite to the waitresses and the icing on the cake is spending my money and time. Having said that, it makes sense for a OWNER of all people to be polite in asking me to leave considering he does own and run the place. I asked him the most logical question - If I am paying for food and that's a lot of dishes to pay for throughout the day, since we know the pricing is reasonable (for me atleast) he says my waitresses complained that you are here for a couple of hours, so you need to leave. What the hell kind of answer is that? If you are going to entertain only the locals, please feel free to let visitors know that they are not welcome. Worst experience and it's ironic how quickly a good impression about a place can turn into a bad one.

For traditional cuisine of Meghalaya, one must visit this cafe. Even the atmosphere is set in such a way as to give a natural feeling while having food.
