Part of the Chaiiwala chain — see all 125 locationsChaiiwala began in Leicester in 2015 with a simple, almost stubborn idea: bring the cardamom-and-ginger karak our founders grew up with, the cup served in family kitchens and roadside dhabas across South Asia, to the British high street, properly. No syrups. No shortcuts. A seven-spice blend, whole milk, slow brewing, pulled long the way it’s done back home. The first store opened its doors in Leicester, and the queue made the case. People weren’t just looking for a chaii, they were looking for the cup that meant home. Ten years on, we’re 115 stores strong across the UK, Canada and growing, pouring over 100 million cups, and still brewing each one the way our founders learned in Mumbai.

Fancied a light bite to eat and this was the only place open in the area. Female staff member was very friendly and recommended the roti wrap & Karak chai deal. Two wraps and two cups of Karak chai for £11 which I thought was a good deal! The roti wrap was freshly made and hit the spot followed up by a nice cup of Karak chai. Will definitely be back again.
Food was great Service was average. I now understand why food deliveried is cold. Delivery driver walking off with food with no heat bag and staff dont even say anything
Naz *5/5 Stars: Excellent Coffee and Top-Notch Customer Service!* I recently visited this coffee shop and was thoroughly impressed with both the quality of their coffee and the exceptional customer service. The baristas were friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about their products. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, making it a perfect spot to relax and enjoy a cup of coffee. The coffee was rich and flavorful, with a perfect balance of acidity and sweetness. I appreciated the variety of options available, including non-dairy milk alternatives and specialty drinks. What truly stood out, however, was the customer service. naz ......warm, welcoming, and went above and beyond to ensure I had a great experience. They were happy to answer questions and offer recommendations, and the service was prompt and efficient. Overall, I'm extremely satisfied with my visit and would highly recommend this coffee shop to anyone looking for great coffee and excellent customer service. Can't wait to go back!
We had amazing breakfast here and ordered multiple things. Loved the Karak coffee frappe as well. Ms. Naz served us and gave us a perfect experience.
My husband and I love having a karak chai and coffee here a few times a week. We’re always greeted with friendly smiles from Layla and Tayba, they always make our visits extra special! Thank you ladies
