5 Best Restaurants in Noida

 Noida may just be a suburb in NCR, a cousin of South Delhi, but its location just across the Yamuna River makes it super accessible from the rest of the city. Hop on to DND Flyway and you're in Noida within 10 minutes flat. The suburb is also well-planned and boasts of wide roads, flyovers and good infrastructure. With a plethora of malls opening up on that side of the river, it is not so unthinkable now, to drive over for a great meal or a day of shopping.There was a time when Noida didn't have many eating options to choose from and one had to make the trek to South Delhi or Khan Market for a memorable dinner. Thankfully, those days are long gone. If you're in the vicinity, here are some great options for you. These are all standalone restaurants outside of hotels and have seating space:

4) Burbee's Café
 A new entrant in the restaurant scene in Noida, this is a cosy little café with graffiti on the walls tracing all the metro stations in the area. The menu is similar to that in many cafes, with burgers, sizzlers, grills and such. Child friendly, it's a good option for a casual meal with kids or to hang around with your friends.
