    Had an amazing experience at Chaiwala Aberdeen. I tried the Indian breakfast with karak chai, and everything was spot on. The karak chai was rich and full of flavor, and the breakfast was absolutely delicious. The omelette deserves a special mention , perfectly cooked with right amount of salt.(30p for some chilli on omelet was silly though 😀) The service was impressively fast, and the staff were very welcoming, calm, and friendly, which made the experience even better. The place itself was very clean, and the interior decor was cinematic and beautifull, giving a really nice vibe. Highly recommended if you’re looking for authentic taste, great service, and a lovely atmosphere in Aberdeen. Will definitely be coming back to try more desi foods.

    Absolutely amazing place. The food was so flavourful and fresh, the fries were exactly how I like them, crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. The drink was something that will definitely make me come back for more. The service was quick. The place itself is very cozy.

    Had a good experience at the Aberdeen Chaiwala branch. The staff explained the deals and ingredients really well and were very friendly. One staff member (I think her name was Vandi / Vanda) was especially helpful. Good service and nice chai and breakfast ,,,Will visit again.

    I visited Chai Wala Aberdeen and had a great experience. Jan C was very friendly and helpful in explaining the authentic Indian menu. The masala chai tasted just like Indian street chai – strong, aromatic, and perfectly made. The snacks were fresh and full of flavour

    Great customer service from the staff here. Especially Jhansi who has been great with everything. Came here multiple times and always received great service. Definitely recommend this place, as it's halal and close from Holiday inn.
