  The Drinks Here Are Incredible! I recently visited Chai Wala and was blown away by the quality. If you are planning a visit, you absolutely must try these three drinks—they are game-changers: • Mango Mojito: This is honestly summer in a cup! It is so refreshing, with the perfect balance of mint and sweet mango. Easily one of the best mojitos I’ve had. • Lemonade: Crisp, zesty, and perfectly chilled. It’s the ultimate thirst quencher and doesn't taste artificial like some other places. • Toasted Cinnamon Vanilla Matcha: This was the star of the show for me. The cinnamon and vanilla add such a cozy, warming flavor that pairs perfectly with the matcha. It is smooth, unique, and totally addictive. Highly recommend checking this place out if you want top-tier drinks!

  Just devoured the Chicken Tikka Wrap from Chaiwala and I'm obsessed 🤤 The flavors were so on point, perfectly marinated chicken, crunchy veggies, and that signature sauce though 😋. And let's not forget the chai it was spot on, just like the ones you get on the streets of Asia. Staff was super friendly and welcoming. If you're craving something flavorful and comforting, Chaiwala is the place to be

  The Hot Cookie Mess is perfect for a Ramadan dessert! Warm, gooey cookie with melting chocolate and ice cream — such a comforting and sweet treat after iftar. Definitely a must-try for dessert lover

  I noticed a new Indian restaurant had just opened in Colchester, so I decided to give it a try. I ordered the Indian breakfast, it was okay, but it didn’t quite hit the spot for me. Maybe it’s because I prefer my food spicier, and it wasn’t quite hot enough for my taste. However, the tea was amazing, and I was served by a lovely lady, Ishita, who made the experience even better. The interior was well designed and perfect for pictures, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. I’d definitely go back to try other items on the menu, hopefully, I’ll find something that’s just the right level of spice for me!

  Since the owner keeps begging for reviews, here you go Mr. Sohail. The quality of the food is below average for what they’re worth. Biryani and bowls are really dry Portion sizes are really small They don’t serve cutlery to you when you’re seated, so you have to pick the cheap wooden ones up yourself, the staff don’t do them for you even when it’s right next to them. A dry wooden spoon feels like torture to your tongue. Owner of the place hires those less fortunate, or international students, and pays them less than the minimum wage, £7 or lesser per hour, or women he finds attractive. Super predatory. Save your money.
