Chaiwalla in Bath and North East Somerset

Amazing samosas (no wonder they claimed "Jane Austen recommended lol!!). This little place offered foods that beyond my expectation. Fulfilling wrap and tasty veggie samosa. They also sell their spices and I was very intriged. Nice and friendly staff. I found a bench and had my lunch in front of Little Chai with some cheerful sunshine. Would recommend if you pass by!

Chaiwala offers an authentic taste of Indian street food that’s hard to beat. From their rich, aromatic chai to flavour-packed chaats and parathas, everything tastes fresh and true to its roots. The service is quick, and the quality is consistently excellent. Probably the best desi food in town—highly recommended for a delicious takeaway experience.

Delicious food, and very nice staff!

the food is incredible the ppl are so friendly, 10/10

Very good food excellent value and friendly staff/service

Probably the best vegetarian food I've had,with a service to match..... HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!

Samosa chaat was very watery and bland, was very excited to try, the people there seem nice but unfortunately I think not much attention has been paid to the food.

Not really authentic. I would expect the "wraps" to be in roti or paratha, but they're not... it's just a regular dry tortilla wrap. I did not enjoy. The staff was nice though.

Amazing flavours. Absolute dream stuff, and will be going back again! They do a few things, and they do them well. Top stuff. Prices are reasonable for Bath, too.

Delicious fresh ingredients great value for money and polite server. Would recommend for a lunch stop.

VERY tasty falafel and onion bhaji wrap, equally tasty samosa all very well priced. Would definitely eat here again!!

Best samosa and chai ever had. Highly recommend, must try👌

The food was delicious. The smells drew us in plus the line out front. We got the samosas with an extra falafel. It smells as good as it tastes!

Very tasty !! I ordered the samosa and falafel wrap and I love it ! Very spicy and very delicious great place if you're vegan too ! Workers were very friendly . I'd reccomend if you love Indian food !

The food was wonderful, and the staff were welcoming and accommodating. Thank you soo much! ☺️

Best Samosa and Chai served by the best people behind the counter!! Thank you Niraj ! Must have for when you’re in Bath !!!

Great music playing in this take away window stall- delicious samosas good to break up long walks. Inviting punchy decor.

Some dang crispy samosas at some good street food prices, especially for central Bath.

What can be said that hasn’t already been said about Chaiwalla? Amsterdam has mayo fries, Naples has pizza, Paris has steak frites and Bath has the mixed wrap from Chaiwalla.

I was drawn in by the hilarious sign claiming that Jane Austen herself loved these samosas. So, I had to try them! They were some of the best samosas I’ve ever had! Tender wrapping, generously filled, and the tamarind dipping sauce was fire. Loved my snack so much, I went back for samosa chaat for dinner!

Friendly staffs. Amazing wraps, samosas and chai. Clean shop. 10/10 would come again Update: came here for the 2nd time. food did not disappoint!

Unlikely that you will find samosas, onion bhaji or pakora better than this in the whole of the South West. Delicious 😋 and very friendly staff to !

Super tasty, friendly service - an all time fave.

Amazing falafel wraps full of spice and flavour. Great service and always welcoming.

a simple and authentic takeaway store with amazing samosas!! we also tried the all in wrap (with the onion bhaji and falafel and it was so so so good)

Extremely expensive, all food items. Samosa is £2, its 50 pence everywhere else. So called onion baji wrap with panora is £8. Are you kidding me??? Not even worth £1. Absolute zero value for money. People please don't get fooled. Beware!

You think you know samosas? You don't until you've had these. Crunchy, spicy, plump, delicious. Washed down with a warming cup of heavenly chai, it's the most delightful friendly place

Was doing a tour of historical pubs and happened upon this little gem. The two blokes in there were friendly engaging and working hard . I've been all over the world eating samosa and this was genuinely one of the best I ever had. The filling was so balanced and the pastry had a donutesque crisp and joy. Really really good stuff.

Hands down the best lunch place on the go in Bath. Special recognition to the all in one chickpea curry box, the bhaji wrap and gorgeous samosas and the whole team who are so friendly, kind and put a smile on my face every time I pop by!

Amazing onion bhaji wrap. Great and friendly service and very reasonably priced. Been meaning to try this place for ages and so glad we did. The falafel, samosas and chick pea curry went down well with my friends too.

I absolutely love their samosas! They're amazing, especially with mango chutney. I've also tried their wraps (All in mixed wrap, Falafel wrap), but in my opinion, they aren't as great. I'm a bit confused about the pricing, though—when I bought 4 samosas as a package, it cost £16, but when I bought 3 separately, it was only £6. Not sure why the package is more expensive.

The perfect place for a healthy fast meal. We loved the flavours, quality, generous quality and toppings. The service was brilliant too - my request of extra mango chutney was granted with a smile! Highly recommended 👍🏻✨

Great food and service, good prices, just a shame there's nowhere to sit if it's raining

I was only in Bath for a few hours and went back here three times for their Chai. It was Fantastic! They use Oat Milk instead of evaporated milk. I found it tasted so much better than evaporated milk. This is the absolute best tasting Chai I have had in the UK! A perfect blend of spices!

Great food i loved the samosa! Also, the guy working there is really nice and friendly.

Amazing customer service, very testy food. I had onion bhaji wrap, falafel wrap with samosa. Tomorrow I’m going back to have some more samosa and dal & rice. Good quality and quantity for the price, very Hygienic. Gluten free, vegan options available. Pure vegetarian as well. Highly recommend... close to Roman bath / bathe abbey.

insanely delicious and such good value for money. got the onion bahji wrap and it was the best flavour combination. samosa rocked too!

Niraj is a legend! I hadn't seen him in years after I moved away from Bath but I was in town the other day and we had a great chat and he gave me a free chai. Guaranteed lovely food and a warm welcome, 5 stars for Chai Walla :-)

A must visit food place if you are in Bath. You can sense the aroma from a fair distance. We were casually walking on the streets on Christmas Day and we found this gem. They were serving food for charity that day which was such a sweet gesture from the team. The Samosas are the highlight along with the chai. I would love to go to this place again and again

A must visit grab and go in Bath! A great little spot that has top tier takeaway for a great price. The onion bhaji wrap and samosa are delicious. Happily get this for lunch or a quick bite in the evening. A spot I make sure to visit whenever I’m back in bath, highly recommend!

The food is awesome, the staff are some of the nicest people you'll ever meet, and the pricing is super fair. Cannot recommend it enough!

This was the most delightful part of our visit to Bath. The spicy powder on the samosas was amazing. We visited on Christmas Eve, loved it, and returned again for more on Christmas Day (yes they were open). Niraj is such a nice and friendly guy. Everyone should stop by, it’s perfect in cold weather too

As someone visiting from California where there are plenty of Indian food spots, nothing I had there has even amounted to the food and hospitality I had here. The wraps and samosas were so delicious and the best I’ve ever had!

Had the samosa and falafel wrap combo. Falafel stayed crispy and delicious in spite of the sauces (which were super tasty but not overwhelming). Some samosas are heavy and greasy, but this one was crisp, light, and fantastic. Service staff were lovely. Perfect food for a cold evening! EDIT: a month later I am still thinking about this falafel. It's that good.

super nice little place! really friendly and the food is incredible

Had the samosa chaat from this place today - food was tremendous, everything was vegan apparently. Guys serving were really friendly and obviously enjoying serving up some great food for a great price - I’ll definitely be back next time I’m in Bath!

I tried the samosas at Chaiwalla in Bath, and they were absolutely fantastic! Perfectly crisp on the outside and filled with a flavorful, spiced filling that tasted fresh and homemade. They had just the right balance of heat and seasoning, making each bite a delight. Pairing them with their chutney or chai is a must. Definitely some of the best samosas I’ve had!

Well, where to start with this review, we're just gutted that we were only able to eat here the once, due to just passing through. We had heard about this place on Google, and wow did it live up to it expectations, the moment we arrived it smelt absolutely incredible. So we ordered the "all in one bowl" They absolutely stack it full, with everything on, and it was 10/10, better than the food we had in indain it's self, and that is no lie. And being 100% vegan plant based is amazing. I couldn't recommend this place more. And the staff are absolute legends 👌🤙

Hearty delicious food for good prices, recommend the box meal!

The smallest storefront that packs the biggest falafel wraps! The samosas are out of this world, and the fact that we can split the wrap between 2 adults makes it a very affordable stop for lunch or dinner. Will be back for sure!

Yummy food quick service very very good

Decent place with a good and reasonably priced selection of food. The staff could be a tad friendlier.

Super delicious falafel wrap and a very tasty seasoned samosa. Friendly and chatty staff. Unfortunately the food is so good that word has got around in the local seagull community and half my wrap got swiped, so watch out.

Brief visit to Bath but made my day finding this gorgeous place! Such flavoursome food and lovely people. If I ever end up in Bath again, I'll be seeking Chai Walla out.

This is a takeaway place hence i left the atmosphere unrated. The snacks are excellent and fresh and the staff are very friendly. This is my second visit here and i tried the chai and samosa which were brilliant. Tip, if you enjoy crisp samosa, ask for the sause on the side instead of on it.

Friendly staff, quick service and the best samosas I've had in the UK having lived here for 4 years. Really value for money for tasty food.

Amazing service and the BEST chai and samosas I’ve ever had. A must visit for anyone coming to Bath!

I'm a Bath local, I buy my lunch from Chai Walla once a fortnight and it's always awesome. The food's fresh and really tasty and sensibly priced, the guys who work there are always super friendly and seem to be having a great time. Particularly recommended for vegetarians because you can eat the whole menu, and they can do it all vegan too. Best street food in Bath.

Haven't eaten just yet but the staff are incredibly friendly really nice guys

Beautiful space and wonderfully food!

amazing veggie food, delicious and cheap! £7.50 for a bhaji or falafel wrap with a samosa or £9 for both which i went for and the wrap is packed big! definitely come here for an incredible takeaway and the staff are so lovely!

Just wow - The owner served us with a smile and had a lovely chat. The food was BRILLANT, so well priced and like nothing we’ve had before. So glad we stumbled across it - wish we had this sort of food in Australia. Thank you!!

Absolutely FABULOUS. The food is rich and flavourful and bursting with different textures and colours. Every time I get food there I have lovely chats with team who are all really friendly and downt to earth. Try curry with a samosa, my favourite dish for cooler days. Oh, and get the chai too.

Inauthentic. Definitely not the top of my chaats 🗑️🚮

The best samosa chaat ever! It’s so filling and the portion size is amazing!! My husband ended up getting the falafel wrap. The falafel is sooo crispy and flavourful. However, the wrap wasn’t that filled but still tasted delicious!

Lovely samosas.Perfect snack to have during a pub crawl! Very tasty with the magic spice powder on top!

THE FOOD WAS SO DELICIOUS and affordable (I had the wrap which had both falafel, onion bajji and a vegetable samosa). Beautifully decorated interior; there was no seating inside but still plenty of benches outside! The man who served us was very friendly. Highly recommend and are planning to go again!!!

Very tasty and very spicy (be careful with the chili sauce ;-) food. Everything is fresh and prepared to order. The price is absolutely right. There is only take-away and the shop is very small, you may have to wait outside... worth it :-)

Got a wrap, samosa and chai from here about 3 weeks ago and honestly am still thinking how delicious this was! That explains the queue we normally see. Staff were great too - friendly and excellent craic!

Amazing hole in the wall takeaway, leading you in with an amazing smell. The Onion Bhaji wrap was great, and the samosa was amazing! The staff were friendly and quick. Really well priced.

Top place to get a fantastic takeaway. Lovely guys too. Simply the best.

Delicious food and great service! Thank you Ed

Unreal food that I will keep coming back for. The worst part is trying to decide what to order as it's all so good! My go to, which I recommend highly is the Bhagi wrap with hot sauce and salad, with a samosa on the side.

We love coming here for onion bhaji wraps and samosas. The samosas are amazing, really crispy and fresh with a special tasty seasoning on the outside. The wraps are great and they really fill them up with lots of salad and bhajis. Staff are friendly and chatty. Only downside is that the shop is tiny so you have to stand outside to wait for food, but not an issue when good weather!

Definitely worth a cup of chai and samosa here when visiting Bath. Never expected to get an authentic Indian masala chai preparation in Bath and was pleasantly surprised.

Some of the best samosa and pakora I’ve ever eaten, coming from London that’s saying something

Honestly life-changing samosas, I can't get them anywhere else without feeling disappointed now

Best street food I’ve had in Bath and lived here for 20 years. Fast and friendly service! Deffinately recommend for a quick meal/snack.

Amazing food! I have never experienced such flavors. I really recommend this Indian restaurant.

Great food, great service and friendly. I eat here whenever I travel to bath for work. Also comes highly recommended from friends and colleagues.

If you’re visiting Bath, you need to make Chai Walla a *must visit*. The BEST samosa you will ever eat, we are going back tomorrow to get more. The falafel wrap was incredible, every bite was an absolute explosion of flavour and crunch. The customer service is exceptional and the value for money is amazing.

Affordable Indian street food made with heart. Would always recommend

They have hair in their food. Not expected in UK.

Delicious food. Fantastic staff who are infectiously enthusiastic about what they produce....rightly so! Incredible

Easily the best street food and nicest service anywhere in Bath!

Absolutely delicious food. Freshly made & homemade recipes. Come here every time I’m in Bath. They are that good!

Great place! Foods amazing and cheap. Definitely give it a go!

What a great find in the heart of Bath. I had heard nothing but good things about the food and it was all true!! Best samosas and wraps in the West. Mixed wrap is sooooo tasty! Heading back there for some frozen samosas to take back home.the guys are so friendly with quick service and they are always happy! Great job guys!

Really good food and atmosphere! Very friendly staff always good!!!

Amazing service very friendly 👌👌👌👌👌👌

Onion bhaji wraps are hands down the best I’ve ever had and the samosa’s are to die for. Best takeaway in Bath!

My partner and I visited on a hot day whilst visiting Bath. I was hesitant to go for it due to the heat but I am so glad I did! We each had a wrap and a samosa and they were amazing. I especially loved the seasoning on the samosa. The service was really friendly and accommodating. Thank you!

I wanted to try Chai Walla after seeing the reviews online. I ordered the Falafel Wrap & Samosa, but was told they could do me a Falafel and Onion Bhaji wrap instead as they didn’t have enough Falafels for just a Falafel wrap. Even though this would’ve normally cost £9, they only charged me £7.50 as this was the cost of a Falafel Wrap and Samosa. I can’t understate how flavoursome, delicious and moreish both the wrap and samosa were. I have tried quite a few falafels in my time, but this was the best ever. Coupled with the jovial and friendly service, getting food from Chai Walla was simply an absolute treat. I can’t wait to come back here again. My partner also got an Onion Bhaji wrap with a samosa and absolutely loved hers as well. The portion sizes were really fantastic value as well. I implore anyone visiting Bath to try this food. You won’t be disappointed!

Best street food in Bath and possibly the UK

Naah, chaii was a disaster 🤢, samosa by itself was good but samosa chat was disaster.

This place is so small, literally blink and you might miss it, but WOAH do they have the single greatest samosas I think I've ever had! Do yourself a favour, pay this place a visit because it's unbelievable how somewhere so small has stuff that good!

Wraps are out of this world! The bhaji wrap is amazing.

Food is not great quality, the salad was old + the flavours are awful. I don’t think the owners/chefs really understand Indian food.

Food was great. Kid making food was busy watching football rather than making the food. but it still got made in a reasonable time. Would recommend.

Defently recomend! Good price for what you get, which is a solid tasty feed.
