A lovely quiet place to have lunch or breakfast. The omelette was amazing. The service was superb and the preserves stewed good. Will definitely be back and highly recommended.

We really liked the simplicity of the place - it’s part of the charm. The chicken tikka wrap was lovely and well-flavoured. However, the masala fries were a letdown. They should have been crispy but were instead soggy, which was disappointing and surprising given that we were dining in. I mention this as you would half expect fries to go soggy if it was a take away. The rose falooda was frankly dreadful - overwhelmingly sickly sweet to the point where the two of us couldn’t manage more than half. More importantly, it lacked key components: no sabja seeds (sweet basil), no falooda sev, and no scoop of ice cream, literally just rose syrup and milk. What we received looked more like Gaviscon than a traditional falooda. It either needs to be seriously reworked or taken off the menu entirely. I would come back, but sadly not for the falooda’s or chips/fries, hence the 3 stars.

Today, I had the pleasure of dining at Chai Bisket, and it was truly an exceptional experience. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed by the warm and inviting atmosphere. The highlight of my visit was undoubtedly the incredible service and food that made this afternoon memorable.I was fortunate to have Abhi as my server, who was attentive, courteous, and made sure that every aspect of my visit was perfect. His genuine friendliness and prompt service added a personal touch that elevated the entire experience.The food, prepared by the talented Chef Venky was nothing short of spectacular. I started with the Karakoram Chai, which was a delightful blend of spices and warmth. The rich, aromatic flavours were perfectly balanced, making it one of the best chais I’ve ever had. It was like a warm hug in a cup, transporting me to the serene landscapes of the Karakoram mountains.The Dahi Yogurt Chaat was another highlight. Chef Vekai has truly mastered the art of creating a dish that is both vibrant and flavourful. The yogurt was creamy and fresh, while the chaat was a perfect mix of textures and spices. Each bite was an explosion of tangy, sweet, and savoury notes that danced on my palate. It’s clear that Chef Venky pours passion into every dish.Overall, my experience at Chai Bisket was nothing short of outstanding. The combination of Abhi’s excellent service and Chef Venky culinary expertise made for a delightful afternoon. I highly recommend Chai Bisket to anyone looking for a unique and flavourful dining experience. I will certainly be returning soon to explore more of their menu!

A classic cafe’ which I haven’t seen for a while, in an area which seemed to step back from the usual hustle and bustle of inner London. Tranquil , good portions of good. The Han and cheese omelette was delicious and of a very substantial size. The salad chopped up well, coleslaw great and a decent proportion for the dish. Lemon tea great. The cutlery and dusted were clean and services. Staff was nice, a little more friendliness maybe. The price was great. Definitely would go again.
