Haveli The Yard

You'll find this Pakistani restaurant tucked into a beautifully converted Victorian warehouse on Upper Maudlin Street, where exposed brick walls and high ceilings create an unexpectedly atmospheric dining room. The kitchen doesn't mess about with authenticity – their karahi dishes arrive properly spiced and fragrant, while the naan emerges from the tandoor with those essential charred bubbles. The portion sizes here are genuinely generous, and they're not afraid to bring the heat when you ask for it. The lamb dishes are particularly excellent, slow-cooked until tender and swimming in rich, complex gravies that deserve every bit of that naan for mopping up.
