Colaba West Hampstead is a modern Indian restaurant on West End Lane inspired by Mumbai's Colaba neighbourhood. The concept connects the area's street food, homes and historic dining institutions with a relaxed contemporary restaurant and cocktail bar.

Street snacks include dahi puri, bhel, aloo chaat and crisp okra, while small plates move through Indo-Chinese chicken wings, fish fry and homemade vegetable samosas. Tandoori choices include lamb seekh kebab, fenugreek chicken tikka, paneer shashlik, prawns and salmon.

Curries range from a homestyle Colaba chicken and prawn coconut curry to lamb shank inspired by Mumbai's Baghdadi restaurant. Slow cooked dal, chickpea curry, smoky aubergine and mushroom spinach give vegetarian and vegan diners a substantial range of dishes.

Layered chicken biryani and vegetable pilau suit sharing alongside naan, roti and fresh salad. Cocktails blend eastern spices with familiar western serves, while lunch, dinner, reservations and a dedicated vegan menu make Colaba flexible for both everyday meals and group occasions.

Address: 279 West End Lane, West Hampstead, London NW6 1QS, England
