Great Coffee In Paro International Airport, Bhutan (PBH)

By

After leaving the Bhutan Airlines Lounge, I found great coffee downstairs at Paro International Airport (PBH). Bhutan’s only major airport does coffee very well.

Best Coffee At Paro International Airport (PBH)

I found two coffee options, one called Himalayan Java Coffee and the other called Paro Airport Café.

Both looked quite nice, but I chose Himalayan Java Coffee because it had a La Marzocco coffee machine, which are the best in the world a far as I am concerned and generally a mark of good coffee.

The cost for a cappuccino was 240 Bhutanese Ngultrum, the equivalent of about 2.86 USD.

Sadly, it was served in a paper cup…but was still a very nice coffee.

As the lounge had no coffee and the coffee onboard turned out to be forgettable, it was nice to enjoy one last excellent cup of coffee in Bhutan.

I love that there were no Starbucks or Dunkin Donuts. I loved that about Bhutan in general…I did not see a single “chain store” in the entire country, not even a 7-11 (which appears to be at every corner in some Asian countries…).

“Independent” coffee does not always mean better coffee, but here it does and usually it does. It was a nice final memory of beautiful Bhutan.
