Desi Dhaba Chaiwala in Glasgow City

Definitely must try. We had desi breakfast and karak tea. Service was superb. Definitely will go again.

Sweet and lovely nice staff and homely family atmosphere ❤️ they can do the English breakfast But me and my pals had the spocey omelette and Pakistani breakfast food and it was really lovely. The traditional lamb curry is off the charts as well delicious!!

The experience at desi dhaba was amazing. All staff was so helpful and the owner is so lovely. Atmosphere is so homely and all food was 10/10. The food was hot and tasted home made. Excited to come back. Please go check out this amazing place.

Took my Boss here for lunch, absolutely outstanding food served here.

I recently visited this restaurant and found the experience to be below expectations. The food was ok but not great, but the pricing felt steep considering the ambience and environment. One major concern was the hygiene standards of the staff. Unfortunately, the server assigned to our table had noticeable body odour, which made the dining experience quite uncomfortable. This raised questions about their overall attention to cleanliness and personal grooming, something that should definitely be addressed in a hospitality setting. This place could be more enjoyable with a few improvements in hygiene practices and a closer alignment of prices to the environment offered.

A wonderful family run business with amazing service. They went above and beyond to cater for our trip, adapting to our group, to provide multiple meals at very short notice. It was a pleasure dealing with people who take immense pride and excellence in what they do, treating customers like family. All their food was absolutely delicious! We can’t recommend them enough. May God place even more blessings in your work

Amazing people, superb food, fantastic customer service - especially sister Zaitoon

Best service.... delicious food ... service with a smile or i should say service with awesome banter and laughter ...... really enjoyed the food especially the achar 😉😉 Shout out to sister zaytoon from her Irish customers 😊 👋👋

Very nice food, breakfast, lunch and dinner, full of flavour and a wide variety to choose from. Very polite and friendly staff and owners. Thank you for your service.

food is very delicious and service is excellent

I would highly recommend. Have done breakfast on Saturday morning, the omlate paratha and halwa Pori thali. And it was truly home style things sobar but tasty. Chai was also fantastic. Staff were very friendly and available. A true example of women empowerment. Worth a try. They also have map to pin the location for the customer which i felt very pleasant a way to respect their customers.

Been here a couple of times the food and the service is always amazing! I had the chicken karahi and the aloo paratha and both were delicious and made fresh. Really busy whenever I go in but they always make time for great service, can’t recommend enough.

Lovely food and service all of them. The cook Kinana was great

Super delicious food, everything is fresh, hot, and yummy! The restaurant atmosphere is very cosy and relaxing, and the staff are just lovely, so friendly and welcoming. Definitely would recommend a visit here. Family friendly, affordable and most importantly delicious food!

Amazing food!! We went with a group and we really enjoyed. The owner ummer gave us panipuri as a complimentary. That was really sweet.The vibe and staff was amazing!

Great authentic place. Reminds of home food back in India! Zainun and his brother are really great and were warm and welcoming. Wil be here again

Amazing food and service, went with a group and we all enjoyed it! The staff were extremely friendly which made the experience even better.

The best desi breakfast I've ever had! The atmosphere feels so authentic and the service is absolutely amazing! I'd definitely visit again if I'm in the city!

nice place to have desi breakfast nihari was so good, portion size was big enough for 2 - 3 person also tried halwa puri platter soo good, staff was really nice must visit, halal

Food is excellent and not greasy. Staff service is excellent. I am from Manchester the European centre for Asian food but the Desi Dhaba in Glasgow is worth the visit and excellent derive along atmosphere.

We travelled from Halifax as a weekend break and decided to try this place. The staff were awesome by greeting us in , gave us free complimentary Ghol Ghapay and keema Handi with 4 chapatis was beautiful.

After being recommended Desi Dhaba, we were pleasantly surprised by food and customer service. We had originally travelled from Milton Keynes to see family, however we'd travel again just for Desi Dhaba! Shoutout to Zaytoon, Qainaat and other team members.

The owner of the this restaurant is simply the loveliest woman I know. She knows just how to make you feel welcome. Food came fast and was absolutely delicious. Service was quick and reliable as always.

Delicious food that was 10/10 Fast service and lovely clean bathroom! The atmosphere and music was on point

Amazing food and the staff were so friendly definitely recommended for anyone around the area a go to spot for me

Tasty authentic dishes. Was worth stopping by on my way back home from Glasgow to Fife. Lovely friendly welcome and conversation. Parathas were especially excellent. Will definitely return.

The place I found near strawberry garden is real home like place and food was no doubt 😋 unbeatable and tastes like my mums food . Saru served me and my friends and her service,the way she smiled is very adorable ☺️. We will come back

It was great experience. Food was nice and especially saag with parathy.

Cannot recommend this place highly enough. Incredible food and lovely staff. I had the aloo paratha with a side of Dal and a mango lassi - it was amazing. I will definitely be back!

Authentic desi food, loved the parathas

Gorgeous food, well worth a short train trip out of Glasgow central. Freshly made to order. Great service. Seems like a really authentic place. Desi breakfasts A&B highly recommended.

The omelette was fantastic and the halva. Great food and plenty of it.

Amazing food, had nihari, naan, keema Somoza and aloo parata. The nihari is faultless and will come back for more, I would have loved the naan to be a slight sweeter and with more black see oil as this is how bengalis have it, the Somosa was fresh and moist and my wife loved the aloo parata, Please keep it up

I came Glasgow for the first time and liked the food here very much. Desi Dhaba Chaiwala reminded me of my home’s taste. Same like my mom’s handmade food

Very helpful staff and lovely food! I ordered a large delivery and I was worried about food arriving on time but it was at perfect timing and everyone loved the food! Thank you!

Great food and service, very friendly staff. Had everything packed sooner on request, added in a few free samples as part of a big order. Highly recommended as your nashta place in Glasgow.

Our visit to this restaurant was a fantastic experience. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with true Punjabi mehmaan-nawazi, making us feel right at home. The staff was incredibly friendly, adding to the warm and inviting atmosphere. We ordered Nihari, Saag with Butter, Naan, Lassi, and Chai, and every dish was bursting with authentic flavors. The Nihari was rich and perfectly spiced, the Saag had a delicious homemade taste, and the Naan was soft and fresh. The Lassi was thick and refreshing, while the Chai provided the perfect comforting finish. The ambiance, with its vibrant décor and cultural charm, truly transported us to Punjab. A must-visit for anyone craving real Desi flavors!

Lovely food and wonderful service my on disappointment was the food was brought over individually which sort of ruins the get together. But was very nice

I have been coming here for last few months and I must say, the food and service is always on point. Hopefully see you guys again when you get the pizzas started.

Fantastic Parathas , ghar ki yaad a gaiy. Reminds me of my mother's cooking. I love their curry pakora and alloo boojia. Taste of india.

Fantastic food. We had breakfast yesterday morning. And it was amazing. And boss man was very nice person. Great service and paratha was the best. We traveled from Bradford and stopped by glasgow for breakfast/nashta. It was worth it.

Desi Dhaba serves outstanding, authentic Desi cuisine with rich flavors and perfectly balanced spices. Their Nihari is packed with bold taste and halwa puri is aromatic and flavorful. Freshly made naan and parathas complement every dish beautifully. The generous portions and high quality make it a must visit for Desi food Lovers

Desi Dhaba serves authentic desi food with rich flavors and generous portions. Their parathas are crispy, well-stuffed, and pair perfectly with channey and omelette. The vibrant ambiance and homely taste make it a great spot for traditional comfort food.

Today I ordered halwa puri the puris were very thick and not fried well worst experience not going to order again

Best Karachi style biryani is Glasgow. Staff are very friendly and welcoming.

Golgapas are great!. Good Pakistani breakfast options.

Unfortunately less parking space

Too much expensive £7 per portion biryanis serving is also not enough for one person

It’s Bit Pricey but Food is great Especially I love the pictures of مُرشد عمران خان

The service at desi dhaba was absolutely exquisite the food was amazing the flavours tantalise your tastebuds in ways you can’t imagine the hospitality was great, couldn’t ask for better service, than this!!! honestly one the best Asian restaurant I have eaten at, very affordable prices. Overall, I would highly recommend this place for anyone who wants an affordable, Asian style meal

“I ordered breakfast from Desi Dhaba Chaiwala, and it was absolutely fantastic! The food was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. Every bite reminded me of authentic desi flavors. The chai was the highlight—rich, aromatic, and perfectly spiced. Highly recommend it for anyone craving a hearty and satisfying breakfast!”

11/10 service and food from all staff particularly zaitoon have come from Manchester to try this place out and it was incredible! Authentic Pakistani food incredible taste and comes out fresh and hot!

We are greeted with the friendliest welcome every time we go. The food is always exceptional, especially the aloo paratha & the channa halwa poori. The samosa chaat was exceptional too. A wee hidden gem, food is wonderfully tasty & has home made vibes! We just keep coming back 😍

Came from Manchester had a stop in glasgow for breakfast. Found this Chai Dhaba, Awesome pakistani vibe and breakfast vibes. Very friendly staff and quick service. Keep it up

Estábamos buscando un poco de "desayuno pakistaní original" después de un largo viaje desde Irlanda y no podríamos haber conseguido nada mejor. Si quieres una experiencia casera de auténtica comida pakistaní, entonces este es el lugar para estar. Todo, desde los sabores de la comida y el ambiente, me hizo extrañar mi hogar y al mismo tiempo sentirme como en casa. El personal es muy amable y profesional con un ambiente muy "apna" - 2 chais (de nuevo increíble! ) en la casa diciendo "app mehman hain" (ustedes son nuestros huéspedes) ¡Podemos planear nuestro próximo viaje a Irlanda a través de Glasgow para volver aquí! Gracias Desi Dhaba Chaiwala equipo

We were looking for some "original Pakistani breakfast" after a long voyage from Ireland and we couldn't have gotten anything better. If you want a homemade experience of authentic Pakistani food, then this is the place to be. Everything from food flavours and the atmosphere made me miss home and at the same time feel very much at home. The staff are very friendly and professional with a very "apna" vibe- 2 chais (again amazing!) on the house saying "app mehman hain" (you're our guests) We may plan our next trip to Ireland via Glasgow just to come back here! Thank you Desi Dhaba Chaiwala team

This is 1 of the very best place's in order for 💯% completely authentic freshly-made and served Pakistani and south Asian food. All the original "Desi" breakfasts, mains, sides, desserts, drinks and much more. I personally Love it here as the food is actually cooked not in a back kitchen but in plain view. Service is great. Family run buisness who are extremely warm and welcoming. Price's are some of the cheapest compared with most other's. There are booths for privacy Or Different types of table layouts. Looks small from the outside but is massive from the inside ! Not once have it not received completely freshly prepared food that I've ordered and enjoyrd, then come back out with a full stomach and it was just literally a few pounds 💷. Pakistani tea 🍵, Coffee ☕️, Lassi ( traditional yoghurt based drink ) Of different flavours. Basically, Desi Dhabba Chaiwala Is a ' Hidden Gem 💎 '!!!!!! A " MUST TRY " , for real foodie's like myself and others.

We ordered aloo paratha and halwa puri chana.We felt puri was too oily so couldn’t eat. Though the atmosphere was good but service could have been a bit better as we had to order by going to the counter could be taken at the table also had to request for tissues, water by going to the counter at the front.

Been to scotland a few times but did not notice this place until today. Food was all fresh and hospitality was great the service was good.The owner and his daughter were really nice people

Absolutely delish. Homemade taste, If it were in my city I'd be eating here every weekend. I got their cheese nan with omelette and desi chai. Good atmosphere, friendly staff, love the desi touches in the decor. 10/10 Masha Allah

we traveled from England to Scotland and had breakfast at a desi dhabba. The experience was incredible! The food was authentic and full of flavor, reminding us of home. The dhabba had a cozy vibe, and the staff were friendly and welcoming. It was the perfect start to our day and added a special desi touch to our trip. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a hearty, traditional meal.

We ordered halwa puri and paratha omelette with qeema aallo. Too good. Chai and mango lassi was also nice. Great place for nashta.

Brilliant. Will be back. Owner came round and made us feel very welcome

If looking to eat something Desi in Glasgow, Then don't go anywhere else ...Desi Dhaba Chaiwala is the best place for desi food loved every single bite of my breakfast ❤️

This place is amazing. The food oi hoi 10/10 got the lamb curry and chicken tikka and nan so good and fresh. Just like my grandad makes it. The halva puri out of the world. Defos coming back

Great food. Great portions. Friendly staff. 10/10 Service was quick and efficient. The food seems to taste better with every visit, but it’s consistently very good! The pricing was really good and overall it was great value for money. I’ve tried many similar places throughout Glasgow and this place (Desi Dhaba Chaiwala) is hard to beat! Only thing would like is a specials board so can see what the special of the day is while deciding what to order. 🙏

Food was amazing with great portions. Service was not as good as food but still nice experience.

Thanks Kainat for suggesting Nihari in breakfast. Soft naan and a grest omolate made it fantastic. Tea, undoubtedly is unmatchable in Glasgow.

Así que después de un largo y duro día conduciendo por el Lago Lomond y el parque nacional, visitando algunos lugares y disfrutando de la belleza de A 82 llegamos de vuelta al hotel, absolutamente destrozado, directo a las camas. A la mañana siguiente me desperté hambriento con ganas de algo desi, desi apropiado, sin posibilidad en el hotel. Terminó en este lugar después de probar su comida en un evento antes, recibido con una gran sonrisa por el propietario. El lugar me ha dejado absolutamente sin palabras, nunca tuve comida tan buena, tan fresca y tan rápida. Se recomienda encarecidamente una visita. Todo lo que pedimos fue 10 / 10 pero no te pierdas de pedir daal con paratha, con muchas muchas otras opciones disponibles también ! !

Fue una gran experiencia, todo el personal era tan agradable, mi familia y yo tuvimos un tiempo encantador allí y la comida tan buena que me gustaría ir allí de nuevo.

Best customer service food was so good 100% recommendations.

The food was very delicious specially karak chai was amazing. Thanks for your food and service.

Fácilmente la mejor comida pakistaní que soy glasgow. Ven aquí mucho para el desayuno. La comida está recién hecha con el perfecto menú tradicional pakistaní. También atienden a vegetarianos

Not Again. spent £20 bought Paye and 3 breads. I was shocked it was not even a plate of "shorba" , The box was quarter full and had two massive pieces in it. not even enough for one person. No taste at all, Absolute ripoff. I always go to Shinwari for paye , first time tried this place and sooooo disappointed

The place is here amazing and staff is brilliant and food was delicious, fresh and paratha were proper desi style crispy.

Looked like a small takeaway from outside but a whole different story when you enter. All good vibes...good food...kamaaal chaii and lovely welcoming staff. Highly recommended and will definitely revisit whenever in Glasgow next

“ Nan muy malo, patético”. A nadie le importa que si usted está recibiendo £ 3 para la abuela simple y llana entonces usted debe hacerlo así. Personal poco profesional debido a la debilidad de la Gerencia.

The atmospher was great they had a Qawali song on and you can feel the punjabi vibe as soon as you walk in. Food was not that Amazing the spicy omlate was not spicy atall, and the Kashmiri pink tea was well made but didin't have the salty namkeen taste. The Arabian partha was not that great, I was expecting a taste of Zatar, but it was plain with cheese and thin pices of chicken

Came here for breakfast, the food was delicious. I ordered the breakfast A, keema pratatha and saag pratatha. It was cooked fresh and tasted amazing! The staff were very friendly and welcoming. 10/10 will definitely be coming back!.

The food was so spicy no taste not recommended while I tried other desi breakfast places much better

We enjoyed the paratha and tarka dhal, followed by chicken tikka and more dhal with 2 roti. Desi çay to finish. Service was relaxed, caring and attentive. Will take photographs next time 😍

awesome food if you love desi food nehari paye or alu parathay just give it a try value for money and service was very good

Aloo paratha amazing, service and speed amazing

My family was out in glasgow didnt know what to eat, came by here and soon as we walked in we was greated by the staff and seated, the sister who was speaking to us she really was a 'gem' of a lady. Just the interaction was enough that i will be coming back. Everything was lovly. Thank you. May Allah grant continue putting barakat into this business.

I was here from Peterborough to attend a wedding and on the way back we thought try this place for breakfast. Atmosphere service including the food was proper desi style and friendly staff. Good size food portions. 👍👍👍

I would like to thank you and your team for looking after us on Saturday. You went above and beyond to cater for us and looked after us during service. Great food which looked fantastic and the taste was to die for. All my guests left happy and couldn’t stop praising your food. Thank you all once again.

I recently came with my family for the first time. The food was good and the service was great. The tea could've been hotter as it was lukewarm but I will definitely be back in the future. Hopefully next time my tea is extra hot!

Amazing food and such a great service. Highly recommend!!

A great place for desi nashita or desi food for lunch and dinner.

Absolutely zero star service from the staff. If u want to be ripped off, then go to this shop ....their prices going up every day and food quality & quantity going down day by day

Highly recommended visit, we will definitely be back. Amazing food and experience the whole family enjoyed. The staff and the owner were extremely kind and down to earth, the gulab jamun and gajrela were out of this world.

Desi Dhaba Chaiwala offers an authentic and flavorful taste of Pakistan with perfect chai, delicious food, and a vibrant atmosphere.

1. Paye 6/10. — 12 GBP without naan. 2. Desi Nashta 1/A: Halva puri 8/10. Good size puri but portion of channa and halva is small. 3. Mooli Paratha 6/10- 7GBP (plain paratha is 5GBP) ***Staff is nice and friendly. ***Only cash or bank transfer available as expected. ***Credit card machine is not working as usual for all desi places. ***Exhaust is not working so it feels like you are sitting in kitchen with a-lot of smoke. Good food but expensive.

Must place to visit in Glasgow if you want desi food with traditional ambiance. Highly recommended .

Stopped at this food gem great staff great management with the best desi nashta & the vibe at this place was amazing.. Would I visit again o yes definitely if I visit Glasgow again.

We were met by great service and fantastic food. I would highly recommended this place if you are looking for a scrumptious desi breakfast!

Totally loved the desi cultural vibe. Food is delicious with abundant portions. We ordered many dishes because it was a big group. Loved every single dish: omelette, parathas (plain and cheese), along with raita and achaar, nihaari and halwa puri. Chai was superb. Quick service. Spacious, clean and hygienic place, including the washroom. Photogenic spots. The staff was very polite and friendly. 11/10 recommended place.

I recently had the best experience at Desi Dhaba Chaiwala. The atmosphere, service, and especially the food were all outstanding. The entire ambiance was excellent, making it a memorable visit. A special thanks to Qainaat for the amazing Gol Gappay (both namkeen and meetha) and the delicious Gulab Jamun at the end. And of course, I can’t forget to mention the delightful Pink Tea!

I travelled from London for a family wedding and tried this place for breakfast. Excellent Punjabi style breakfast , my favourite was Paratha Omelette. Staff were very nice and owner showed us a lot of respect. I will definitely be coming back to this place

Food was very tasty and staff was so efficient and friendly definitely coming here again
