You can still hike up to the viewpoint after the last cable car the trail is clear and the lights up there give a nice twilight view of the valley. If you’re in a hurry, the Kangri café stays open until about 8 pm and serves quick Himachali thalis. A quick stop at a tea stall near the base also works; they usually stay open a bit later for snack hungry travellers. If you want a slightly more upscale bite, the Apple Orchard Resort in Dhanaulti is a short detour from Manali and offers local dishes.
