First of all, Anna ! Main character!! Amazing service ! If you are afraid of trying something new that you might not know what it is, just talk to her. She will walk you through the menu. You are going to be greeted with a smile and with the enthusiasm of someone that likes to share what they do. After you order with Anna’s help, you will wait a decent amount of time, and by that I mean,this is not your it’s pre-made and just to be served; this is a place that makes food to order fresh and made with tradition and love, and you can taste it ! The Chai is to die for. There is no industrial perfume flavour; these teas are the real deal, honestly, natural made with real ingredients and thoughtful recipes that only actual culture and flavours thought generations can develop. The flavours are intense but not overwhelming. Come here, say hi to Anna, and be ready to have a delicious treat and a great drink.

Samosa chat was fab and of course not to miss on there chai..!!! Overall a fabulous place..! A great place for vegetarians...as it is all veg..!! A special shout out to Ana..Who keeps the place alive with her active and lively interactions with every customer that walks in...it instantly connects...the comfort elevates...not only while taking orders but also on floor...she makes sure to check if every is fine and if something else is needed. Her friendliness and care makes this Chai Bar extra special..!!

Hi, I ordered from Chai Bar today, and I was really looking forward to the meal because I was very hungry. Unfortunately, I was disappointed with the quality. The loaded fries and the peri peri fries were very soggy, and the chai was cold when it arrived. I wanted to let you know because this wasn’t the experience I was expecting.

Best chai I've had in town, no question. The flavor was spot on and honestly just hit the right comfort vibe. Food portions are really good too definitely worth it. Also, Ana who works there is amazing. Super friendly and attentive, and just made the whole experience better. You don't come across service like that very often.

Today I ordered 4 special mix paratha and I found a hair inside one of them. This is very disappointing and unhygienic. Food safety and cleanliness should be taken seriously, and this kind of issue ruins the entire experience. I hope the restaurant improves their hygiene standards to avoid this in the future.
