Getting there, best time and parking
Chandigarh has no metro, so cabs, autos and your own vehicle are the options. Sector markets have large public parking lots behind the SCO rows, which makes cafe hopping easy. Mohali and Panchkula cafes are 20 to 30 minutes by road from central Chandigarh depending on traffic.
October to March is the best time, with pleasant evenings for outdoor seating; winter mornings can be foggy. Weekend evenings in Sector 7, 26 and 35 are busy, so call ahead for larger groups.
