Incredible food! My partner and I had an onion bhaji burrito, which also came with a decent sized samosa! It was all made pretty quickly, despite being fairly busy at the time. Also, it was very reasonably piced! Highly recommend.

Found this little gem on an off chance, but lived everything that came from it. Vegan food that was absolutely tasty.Was a bit gutted that it was a cash only place, but it is literally next door to a cash machine. Highly recommended if youre in Bath. Theres food, then there is Chai Walla Street food. Brilliant.

Have heard so many good things about this place so decided to give it a go! Now I know what the hype is about… food was delicious! Tried all of the items on the menu but what really stood out was the samosa chaat and the onion bhaji wrap! The mango chutney that was used was sweet and fragrant, and complements the other components so well!

Visited Bath for the day with my partner and tried Chai Walla on a whim. Being veggie/vegan we find it hard to eat out sometimes, but these guys make excellent food! Everything is decently priced and would love to eat from here again next time we visit.

Great food, really recommend the wraps. Excellent service and the tamarind sauce is worth a visit for in itself.

Yummy food and delicious chai at great value. Almost deserving of 5 stars, only I wish the guy serving hadnt used the same glove to handle food and money...

Food is lip smacking. The falafal wrap were just mind blowing. Specifically the falafals are too too tasty. Can eat up unlimited. The samosa chat was also good.

This is not the real chai walaI thought Id give it a try since I was passing by and saw some great reviews. Unfortunately the chai did not taste very good. It was basically PG tips boiled in a pan.Very disappointed.

Onion bhaji wrap - delicious & inexpensive lunch. The pulley system they’ve made for paying with cash really adds to the experience.

Great food, tasty, sweet and spicy. Pretty good value for money especially when you consider the location.Clearly has regulars so cant be bad.Not been to India but have had plenty of meals cooked by first and second generation Indian Brits and it compared well to themDefinitely recommend for a snack or lunch as a decent alternative to the ubiquitous chain food outlets

PROs: Friendly service, food quantity, central location, menu choice, next to an ATMCONs: cash only (in Covid times, not recommended), the food good but not something I will remember for longI would have given it 3.5 stars instead of 3 if I could.

Very disappointing chai - doesn’t do justice to the name! Wrap was ok, although the overpowering taste is the sweet chutney. Takes only cash, despite current covid times.

Friends were going on about it I just had to try it. Oh boy did it exceed my expectations. Amazing wraps, GREAT value for it. Definitely add a samosa to the dea. I can vouch for the onion baji wrap but defo try the other choices on the menu.

Review №31

This place is in very near to Roman Spa and other sites. We ordered samosa chat and onion bhajji wrap. Both were very tasty. This is a take away store and had a long queue. The prices are reasonable and staff is polite. MUST visit if you need some street food taste.

This place is amazing! We had the infamous onion bhaji wrap and also the samosa chaat and they did not disappoint! Authentic flavours and very friendly and quick service! Would definitely recommend

Al
Review №34

If your expecting to get indian streetfood and some proper chai then dont get your hopes up, foods ok. But the chaat ended up being a soupy mess and the chai was bland.I thought this was another branch of chaiiwala but this was another place.

Review №35

The food was great and quick and so fresh. He made it from scratch and fries it so nicely. The onion bhaji wrap with a samosa for only 6£ was a great deal. The wrap was nicely filled and samosa was savory. The whole menu is vegan and the falafel would have been a great option as well. There was a line and also only cash when we were there.

Be
Review №36

The food in absolutely fantastic - second to none! But please get a card machine. I do not carry cash, especially now due to the pandemic. The other day I ordered through Deliveroo and collected as it allowed me to pay with my card. The staff member was borderline rude to me, telling me that Deliveroo takes 30%. That may well be - if you had a card machine I wouldn’t have needed to do it!

Review №37

The chai is terrible. Please dont think, this is how indian chai is made.The proportion of milk , water and masala is so so wrong... THIS IS NOT INDIAN CHAI

I am a regular at the Coventry road branch and I love coming across a girl named Sunna who works there whether it be on the phone when I place my order or when I go into the store because she is always is SO positive and friendly in the morning and her customer service skills are very rare :)Natasha is also someone I bump into quite often who is also very helpful so thank you to these girls at Chaiwalla Coventry road!

Ordered some samosa chat - was full of just chickpeas and not really a chatt (with no chutneys or shev). Also came with some sort of gravy in a chat.Got the pakora wrap too - The pakoras were over fried (burnt) .Had to throw away.The single samosa was nice though...Overall not a goo experience.

Review №41

We had the falafel wrap and the spicy lentil chaat. It was incredibly flavoured and something we will remember. The curry was one of the best in terms of flavour pay off I’ve had, and I’ve had a lot! Would definitely return and recommend. It would have been if it wasn’t cash only but there is a cash point just round the corner.

Best place to eat in Bath if you dont mind paying little, fresh veg ingredients and a slightly chaotic atmosphere.Youll also have to queue as its so popular...

Review №44

So great! The food is delicious (we had bhaji roti and samosa chaat. Both delicious! Also the guys there are modern day heroes. The little kid before us ordered a wrap, asked how much, and the guy said Ill charge you £5 cause youre a kid. Awesome!Be aware - theyre cash only.

Fantastic home made Indian food! Stayed in Bath for 2 days, first day I had an onion bhaji roti wrap, second day I went back for samosa chaat! So good! All made on site, freshly fried samosas and bhajis, and theyre open till about 3am at the weekend! Awesome!

This is hipsters Indian food, not real Indian food. Had onion pagodas here. Were oily, soft and not good at all.

Review №60

This place was fantastic! As someone who lives here, I will frequent this place! So many spice flavours without being too hot at all. The samosas were to die for and they do an amazing onion bhaji wrap. Currently £6 for an onion bhaji wrap and a samosa. £4 for gluten free curry and rice. Tiny place full of charm with lovely conversational staff. Not a long wait (although the queue will go out the door if it is more than two people! This is a prime example of some of the best street food in Britain!

Come here every time I’m in bath and the place has never disappointed. Delicious food at a reasonable price served by the loveliest bloke around. Wraps are good options on the go but recommend the samosa chaat if you enjoy a bit of spice.

Without a doubt Chaiwalla is one of Baths hidden gems. The food is beyond fantastic, the service is always fast, friendly and generous, and the prices are very reasonable for the quantity and quality of the food. Cant fault the place.

Exceptional Samosa chaat... bring back home memories.. It was the best dish by far compared to the Falafel and Onion Bhaji.. Still a treat for those longing for a snack!!

Wonderful street food with an Indian twist. Small but utterly delightful range of food to take away - samosas and falafel particularly good! A real find and worth seeking out.

Very good Indian food, even though I wish there was some options for meat eaters, the food is very tasty and delicious. They only take cash which is quite weird considering the current situation and the price is ok, but not particularly a great deal for what is provided.

Review №95

A tiny little place, serving feel-good street food.We thoroughly enjoyed our falafel wrap with a small criticism over the overall consistency of the meal. There seemed to be a lot of liquid leaving the wrap which leaked into the tin foil wrapper, making it rather difficult to eat and quite soggy.Value for money on point however.
