Chaiiwala Leicester Granby Street is an Indian street food café at 78 Granby Street in the city centre. The brand traces its inspiration to a family tradition dating to Delhi in 1927, combining spiced tea with quick breakfasts, snacks and casual meals throughout the day.
Karak chaii is the signature drink, with several flavoured variations joined by coffee, coolers and shakes. Its strong tea and warming spice make a natural partner for savoury food, while the broad drinks choice also makes the café convenient for a shorter social visit.
The food moves between desi breakfast plates and street snacks such as pani puri and aloo tikki. Samosa burgers, chilli chip butties and other fusion items reinterpret familiar British fast food through Indian flavours, giving the menu a playful counterpoint to more traditional choices.
Counter service and an informal café atmosphere suit breakfast, lunch or a snack between city centre errands. With several Chaiiwala branches around Leicester, the Granby Street location is the central option for diners wanting the chain's characteristic combination of chaii and urban desi food.
Address: 78 Granby Street, Leicester LE1 6FB, England
