First time today and we weren't disappointed. Food is amazing authentic flavours. The veg samosa chat is very good and also the Kashmiri Pink Chai to die for, they also do plant milk if you are intolerant. The service is very welcoming, we highly recommend it

We have been there twice now and both time the food didn’t disappoint. The different Thalis are extremely nice but the mince they make is a firm favourite. Their version of halwa is different from Pakistani ones but is also very nice and is a nice dessert. Both times they have been accommodating to cater for my younger boy who’s a little bit selective. The owner is very hard working and friendly and I wish him the best in his endeavours.

Chanced upon Chai Nashta looking for somewhere to have lunch with my partner. We ordered a selection of their ‘street food’ and were really blown away by the quality. Really nicely cooked and you can tell that they care. We found it to be great value and the atmosphere is really nice and relaxing too. Will definitely go back!

The main guy in the front (I’m assuming owner or manager) was fantastic. Very attentive and polite. Food was good. Only criticism would be space, I think the seating is a bit cramped and should be spaced out. Otherwise all is good.

Outstanding authentic Indian. Very rare to find a place like this. Samosa chat was delicious and massala chips is flavourful. Best karak chai I have ever had.
