I have recently been to Nepal couple of months ago and yes it is true that price has skyrocketed but then again I was there after many years so I had fun.
These are my favorites places:
Mezze by roadhouse : Its just opposite of the royal palace and has great view of the palace. Go there for a coffee in the afternoon.
Sam's Bar in Thamel. This has always been my favorite pub and it still is. I just enjoy the ambiance of this place.
OR2K in Thamel: Used to be pot hub back when I was in Nepal. But last time I didnt enjoy here.
La Grange in Thamel: Good for live band. It is owned by Sareen dai of Monkey Temple. Nice guy. Had fun listening to his music and talking to him.
Purple Haze in thamel: Band was good but all fuchha fuchhi audience. I felt like a grandpa there.
Tom and Jerry / Reggae bar/ Buddha bar : There were all the favs bars back then and I just revisited them all. They are still good.
For Newari foods :
Newa Suli at Harishiddi : https://www.facebook.com/pages/Harisiddhi-Newa-Suli/129255757252396
Newa lahana at Kritipur : https://www.facebook.com/pages/Newa-Lahana-Kirtipur/202577299791765
If you want to go hard core (I dont recommend unless you have strong stomach), go for Kwa Cha at Swatha. Its in deep patan on the wat from mangal bazzar to bangla mukhi.
Also try Bu: Lal cha : Its on the way from mangal bazzar to gwarko.
For family time : Take them to Jhamel. There are lot of family oriented restaurants there. I went to Moksha and Vespar Cafe. Both equally nice.
Also for the resorts, I went to Riverside resort at Kurintar on the way to manakamana cable car. It was really nice.
Also, for night stay, go to Club Himalaya in Nagarkot to see the sunrise.
All the best !!
Also, take a credit card with you that doesnt charge international transaction fees so that you dont have to carry pile of cash with you. True me, in no time you will spend 5K in restaurants.
@Atomic : By reading your post, it looks like you are from Patan and so am I. And looks like you have not visited Nepal after earth quake. Sandar 5 star momo in Kwalakhu is closed for good. There is now a gift shop instead of momo place.
Also, honocha is closed because of the earthquake. The one near Bhimsenthan is damaged and closed for good. And the one near Krishna mandir is also closed and was told that it will open soon.
And the mahabharat momo is replaced by everest momo in lagankhel .
