Masala Chai / Tea

About Masala Chai / Tea

Masala chai is not a flavour of tea so much as a method and a ritual — the spiced, milky, properly boiled tea that fuels daily life across the whole of India, brewed at roadside stalls and in every home from dawn onward. The crucial thing, and the thing most places outside India get wrong, is that real chai is brewed, not steeped: the tea and spices are simmered together with milk and water rather than a bag being dipped in hot water. That boiling is what gives chai its body, colour and depth.

We make ours the authentic way, with loose-leaf Assam CTC tea — strong, malty and made for milk — boiled together with milk and water and a fresh masala of crushed green cardamom, ginger, clove and a small piece of cinnamon, then strained into the cup. The spice blend is balanced so no single note dominates: the cardamom and ginger lead, the clove and cinnamon sit underneath, and the Assam gives the whole thing its robust, brisk strength. It is sweetened to a traditional level, though the kitchen can adjust the sugar on request.

Chai has its own place in the rhythm of an Indian meal — most often at the very end, as a warm, digestive close, or in the afternoon alongside something fried like a plate of pakora or papad. The ginger in particular is considered settling after a heavy meal. It is comforting, aromatic and a world away from a teabag in lukewarm water; for many of our regulars it is the proper full stop to a North Indian dinner. Vegetarian and freshly brewed to order.

Vegetarians and meat-eaters share most tables here; the menu has plenty for both.

The rest of what we pour is on the drinks list, and the food it is meant to sit beside is on the full menu.
