Chaiiwala

You'll find Chaiiwala tucked away on The Martletts, and it's exactly the sort of spot that rewards you for wandering past the usual high street chains. Walk in and you're hit with the smell of cardamom, ginger, and fresh chai being brewed properly—none of that instant nonsense. The place has that unpretentious, lived-in feel where locals genuinely hang about, whether you're grabbing a quick chai to go or settling in with a mate for a couple of hours. The menu keeps things focused: chai in various styles, Indian snacks, and enough flavour to make you wonder why you've been drinking builder's tea for so long.
