Aesthetically done up with traditional interiors, with the exception of the portrait of Dumbledore staring down as you dine, this uber-casual restaurant with an Indo-Pak vibe remains the favorite among night crawlers. It is open till midnight every night and till 3am on Friday and Saturday nights, and is a great spot to grab a late-night bite. The menu offers choice selections from Northern India and Pakistan, and the Tandoori chicken, boti kebab, and dal are must-try items.

Pho Hoa Noodle Soup

This no-fuss, cafe-style spot is open till mightnight on weeknights and until 2am on weekends, and is a to-go place to grab a late-night noodle soup. Also on the menu are rolls, rice bowls, and vermicelli plates. A must-try at this outlet is the Jazen tea and, of course, the Pho.

Donut Wheel

Great donuts, a cup of Joe, and ice cream – this place has everything it takes to be a great donut stop. Plus, it is open 24 hours a day. The place is super comfortable, complete with custom-made signs, classic donut shop signs, and a large mounted deer head above the door. The glazed donuts are a favorite among the patrons.

Taverna Bistro

Bistro, Restaurant, Mediterranean, Pub Grub

A lavish restaurant with ornate decor, whipping up delicious authentic Mediterranean kebabs, pies, and platters in the middle of the night, this is the place to be to satiate the midnight hunger pangs.

A down-to-earth atmosphere with a mom-and-pop feel makes this place very welcoming. Incredibly delicious Middle Eastern food, cheap prices, and a great atmosphere make this a wonderful Mediterranean cafe. Being open till midnight from Thursdays to Saturdays is the icing on the cake. The shawarma with curly fries and baklava are must-tries in this venue.
