Overhyped place.. the mutton berry pulov was bland and the Salli boti had too much tomatoes.. however the caramel custard was the best the Ive ever had. The food is overpriced for the quality that it serves. Poor hygiene and they only accept cash.. overall bad experience and I think people should stop overhyping this place.. there are many other good restaurants worthy of such popularity.

A vintage restaurant since colonial times with classic parsi dishes . Do try chicken cutlet and berry pulav . Its a must try to get know authentic parsi cuisine.

It is so rare to come across Irani restaurants in Mumbai these days for they are vanishing so fast. Britannia restaurant is still holding its ground since 1923 offering authentic Indo-Iranian cuisine. Its berry pulav, Sali chicken, mutton cutlet and Caramel custard are out of this world. A must place to go if you are interested in old and quaint places.

I had heard about the place and the food that they serve.. went today with friends and what an excellent experience it was.Real vintage feel in the restaurant but the food and the hospitality with professionalism took our breath away. Portions are adequate for two to three and we tried the famous Berry Pulao ( Prawns, Chicken and Veg) and Chicken Farchha in the main course and tried all the three desserts which included the Caramel custard, Choco Mousse and Sweet Iranian Curd...Strictly only Cash outfit and the ambience around the place helps you to digest all that is eaten by taking snaps all around the place for your Social media desires.Another major plus is adequate car parking ...If you are in Mumbai...... must go place...Cannot miss it... make a date.

The authentic Parsi food you should not miss.Vintage Cafe.

As someone who appreciates history, I was really looking forward to checking this place out. Had the most hyped Mutton Sali boti. The dish was light on the stomach despite the masaledar looks. The starter item of chicken leg felt like a failed KFC. The ice cream flavor soda was really good and unique.

Absolutely fantastic place for foodies...Must try mouth watering bombil duck, Berry pulao and sweet lime soda.

Amazing food. But too heavily priced for it. Banking on heritage aspect. Ambience looks vintage to the point where some might call it badly maintained. Decent in terms of hygiene nontheless. Try the keema. Idk about the freshness of the fish they procure but the preparation is great!

They accept only cash. I paid cash to the waiter which I counted twice before. Went to wash basin. Came back to collect my bag and the waiter said there is Rs.100 less. I knew there was no point arguing. So paid and left. Oh yes, also, the food is just not worth the money you end up paying there. Just an experience. An expensive experience.

True classic hospitality with great signature cuisines. The staff are great and the Parsi owners so humble and full of love. I love Britannia 💘

Lovely food , authentic Parsi Irani cuisine , berry pulao is best in town .

Ultimate experience reminds me before indipendence must visit 👌

The OG. Amazing berry pulao, fried chicken and old-school chocolate mousse and sodas! Fast service and warm staff. A must try.(Cash-only payment though)

Really good food and passionate staff. It is indeed one of the heritage outlets of Mumbai.Only drawback is they accept only cash, not sure why they arent updated here. Maybe to continue the legacy.

Great place to be with friends, family or dates;the food here is delicious and a little overpriced compared to the other vintage restaurants.mutton kheema with bread has a fantastic taste!

Visited here after a very long time...Same ambiance, same taste of food..same Menu over the years ..As always our staple today was Sali chicken with Chapati, chicken cutlets, Chicken Berry Pulao. Meal finished with Caremel Custard ..Awesome food....

The place is old, the menu is old but the taste of each thing MGR I tried is refreshing.

Simple Irani hotel setting, but amazing food served. Had their specialty, Berry Pulao and it was really delicious. Tried their Dhanshak which was great. Also, tried Pallonjis Ice Cream Soda and Rasberry. In short, the food is amazing, the place is simple and the staff very courteous. Five Stars.

Excellent place. Especially berry pulao

Food was fine, heavy, and tasted a bit off. Great staff and ambiance.

Other than the old ambiance, the vintage check tablecloth, the servers with bow tie and the limited menu of signature dishes it is just hyped. The prices are just too high for a normal middle class person to eat without thinking about the price.... I mean each bite would make you remember the price!Disappointed!

We went here on a monday afternoon. The restaurant has an amazing ambience, it feels like youre going back in time to pre-independence Bombay. We ordered chicken berry pulao, which was amazing and quite filling. The mishti dahi was also quite good. The only downside is that they only accept cash, no cards or google pay.

Waste of monry.. excessive sweet in all food.. especially raspberry soda it was like cough syrup..

Came here for the first time in 2006 and happy to be returning 14 years later. Yes, the prices are a bit higher than your average lunch spot but the quality of the food and the antique atmosphere more than make the money worth it. Service is also very prompt, friendly, and done with pride for the history of this establishment. One of my favorite Mumbai spots and if I’m ever in South Mumbai around lunch time, more often than not I end up here.

One of the oldest restaurants serves Irani and Parsi cuisine. Especially Berry Pulaw is the unique preparation and signature of the restaurant. Heritage and authentic restaurant. One should must visit here if you visit Mumbai.

Great parsi food restaurant..Must try fry Bombay duck , sali mutton boti

Such a yummy place with loads of charm! The berry pulao is worth the fame and adulation. Chicken salli was amazing.

The restaurant gives u a tour of the past... Food is good... Service is quick...

An original Parsi Restaurant ,in terms of look and feel with authentic Irani cousine .Must try for food lovers , in the heart of fort area and quite ok in terms of price .

In todays age of internet, Im not sure how I got lured away by all those fake positive reviews and decided to give it a try. This place is a definition of being overhyped to the extreme !! Starting from the ambiance (old is an understatement, the decor is century old, unchanged,zero maintenance done and the beams are dangerously hanging from the concrete of the ceiling). If you want to have good parsi food this is the place to avoid for sure.Pricing and Food - Mutton berry pulav for Rs. 800, prawn pulav for Rs. 900, mutton boti for Rs. 650, fish patri Rs. 900. You would experience what is giffen goods (feeling that something expensive would be really good) in economics when you visit this place. Please note that all the dishes are for one person (1.5 may be if you eat once in two days) and they dont take card or any other modes of payment except cash in INR. Chicken farcha Rs. 400 just for one piece ! I can keep on going but its easier for you to take a look at Zomato. Food quality is okay but taste is medicore at its best. This is not continental, neither Indian nor a proper parsi food (not at least in 2020).Special note 1 - We entered and tried to take a table which was free (no marking as reserved). The guy at the counter shouted on the waiter. We were sturtled with this attitude and was puzzled what went wrong. The waiter told us that the table was reserved and told us that we need to pay by cash. When we agreed to it he said then you can take this table. We were confused again !Special note 2 - We had travelled about 9-10 kms just to eat here and after being disillusioned with the experience we decided to go out when the waiter asked whether we needed to order anything else. When we replied in negative he seemed somehow irate. We paid the bill and was going out when my mother wanted to take a picture with one of the wall in the backdrop (mahatma gandhi and Indian Flag on the wall). After taking a picture, supposedly the owners son from the counter (aged about 35 ish guy, fair complexion) shouted on us.Below was the conversation as it is ....Owner : You cant take picture as this is my restaurant (extremely angry voice).Me : Well, you shouldve mentioned somewhere that photography is prohibited. And why on earth are you shouting on us? Were not your employee.Owner : look its written (points at a print on the staircase of the first floor which reads as rights of admission reserved)Me : That doesnt mean one cant take pictures.Owner : You may please leave, khuda Hafeez !Racism personified by owner, overhyped, weird staff behaviour if your bill is not high enough, super expensive food items, mediocre taste.You are an Indian (they seem to have a fetish for non Indians and it shows in their interaction with foreigners) and still wanna go .... Be their guest (pun intended).

Hyped. Very expensive for the quality. Iv eaten better berry pulaos and kheema elsewhere.. The only good thing is the old world charm with the ambience.

One of the best palce to enjoy parsi cousine...must visit

I didnt have the option of giving zero stars, the berry pulao was very bad , tasted like the pulao they give in air india

Experience it. Then you will understand. Why a 5 rating

One of the Oldest Irani Cafe Of Mumbai & as the legend goes, the birth place of the Iranian Berry Pulav in Mumbai. They use the Original Zereshk Berries Imported all the way from Iran in their Berry Pulav which elevates the taste to Next Level. The Salli Kheema, another legendary dish which they serve is probably one of the best kheemas you will ever get in mumbai. The raspberry soda is a good accompaniment for the meal.

Even chai wala accepts UPI these days. Only cash? Oh because this is a colonial vestige reminding. Looking at the rules posted all over their walls youll be convinced this place is run by a tyrant. Youll never see me here.

Must visit place, lots of history and authentic parsi food.

The only capital of this Irani Cafe is its past glory. Now highly overrated, highly overpriced, quality of food indifferent and neither well maintained not very clean. A look at the outside photograph with signboard peeling off would give you forlorn look of a place which is long past its prime.If you are keen to know about Iranian Cafe heritage pay a visit to this cafe from the outside and then settle for some other place to eat.

Visited this place as it was a much hyped about restaurant. To our disappointment, it was just the hype. Raspberry soda tasted like cough syrup!! Literally.Mutton biriyani and Paneer biriyani was like eating basmati rice and sweet curry. (Both similar gravy, just pieces were different). And for Rs.700, mutton biryani was definitely overpriced and sweet!

Worth experiencing one of the oldest irani restaurant. food is taste of the century you need to go early as there is waiting for almost an hour but the taste is worth the wait price is slightly high but food quality 👌 amazing worth it try their Sali boti and Berry pulav you will not be disappointed

Awesome authentic amazing fantastic superb ... Best place to get authentic parsi food... The Berry pulow and chicken cutlets were amazing... The raspberry soda and icecream soda were the refreshing winners... To end the meal the caramel pudding was awesome.Price is on a higher side but worth it...

Had my first taste of Parsi food over here and fell in love with it instantly. The place is iconic and has super fast service. The food is super tasty, doesnt need me to vouch for it.

Britannia & Co is a very quiet and warm place to have some amazing Parsi food. It is easily accessible by road. The interiors were like old world types coupled with friendly service team. The food was absolutely amazing. The specialties to be ordered are Berry Pulao(Chicken/Mutton), caramel custard and the ice cream soda. Service is pretty fast and the pricing is a bit on the upper side but the taste is amazing. Just FYI, its open on Saturdays till 10pm.

If you are a food lover, Britannias Berry Pulav is something you should have at least once in your life time - sublime!

Extremely overrated .Dont rely on the ratings .Chicken sali and berry pulao and raspberry & lime soda were a complete disappointment .

This place is a historical place actually, a lot of reputation, history and definitely good and fresh food. The place is located in a good location in fort and has good ambience with a typical parsi decor and some special parsi household dishes . There are different kinds of sodas(must try icecream soda) and drinks available too ,but not alcohol. Overall its food is very good , the service is good and on point. We had ordered chicken cutlets, chicken dhansak , patranu Machi and chicken Berry pulao and also caramel custard. I would strongly recommend the cutlets and berry pulao and also the custard (the best Ive ever had!!!).

Britannia & Company has won my taste buds and enslaved us by the great taste. There is always a heavy rush at this place.The management runs a tight ship. Make sure to get a table on the ground floor. The upper floor is hot in afternoons and you will also miss out on the ambience.Every dish is filling for two people and comes with the express 10 min delivery to table. I only wish I could have tried out everything on the menu.We had enough of the steep price and filling portions for the day.Ordered:Chicken berry PulavRaspberry cold drinkLemonade cold drink

Food and feel is great. Only challenge is their unacceptance of credit/debit cards.

Amazing food. Great taste. Loved it :))

If you are visiting Britannia for the first time, chances are that everything apart from the food might just be a major disappointment- and it is reasonable to expect that. With an apparently running down building facade and interiors that don’t appear to have been done up in half a century, with an ever scowling person in charge at the till, a sign that brazenly dissuades customers to argue with the management (wow!), a policy of payment only in cash in today’s New Age Cashless India, photographs of the map of India openly flanked by those of Persia and Britain.... that is a really a list to never go back. But I promise... you will. All the above are just the traditional charms of the place, take it in your stride, look for some hidden gems amongst the flags, the photos and emblems of the Parsi religion, interspersed with those of Mumbai when it was still Bombay, a photograph of Gandhi and that of the Queen of England, the sign boldly claiming the Eating House (not restaurant) is Fire compliant (whatever that means!), smirk as the person at the Cash till looks down upon people not carrying cash.... I really had a whale of time laughing at, and enjoying the whole experience.And then comes the food.... I really have nothing to say. Just give any of the Berry Palav’s a try (I tried chicken, but go for the Mutton one), and the Salli Chicken which was on every other table (we tried the Fried chicken with a boiled egg, which was also superb). And even if you are full, do NOT leave out the Caramel Custard, which probably is the best I have ever had, across cities and continents, and you will know what I mean....And the best part of the so called heavy meal here, you will not feel heavy and full, since the berry palav does not have the traditional Indian oils, and is quite light on spices (but is otherwise flavourful).

I had read and watched a lot about this iconic eatery in Mumbai and it definitely doesnt live up to its reputation. The place really needs upgrade of their interiors, the roof has fallen apart in some places. The berry pulau and mutton boti sala we ordered were just ok and not like mouth watering what everyone else reviewed.

Please try Berry pulao. One of the best Iranian Cuisines.

Food is average, not recommend for people who like spicy food.Quantity is good but very overpriced. Ambience is rustic.

Nice Parsi food with an old colonial ambience. very warm and friendly staff. the interiors are not renovated , its still the old furniture of the typical Irani cafe round chairs . the place shuts post 3-4pm.

Iconic restaurant of Mumbai known for its Berry pulao. I love the Bombay Duck fry there though

Good place for good old vibe, i really loved the parsi uncle very friendly, the berry pulao was really good but didnt like the caramel custard much

Famous for its berry pulao and other Parsi cuisine. This place never disappoints.

This is a classic Iranian restaurant in he heart of South Bombay. The place, furniture and ambience is very elegant.Not many options for vegetarians, but it is anyway known for meat dishes. Dosto, ginger soda are amongst the best soft drinks.It accepts only cash, cards are not accepted.

Oh a slice of history! Worth the wait even if it means climbing the rickety looking stairs and sitting in not very comfortable chairs. But oh my, the food, it is awesome!Please do try the berry pulao, it is out of this world and leave some space in your tummy for dessert.

Excellent food with an old world charm in the ambiance and setup. Enjoy the food and warm hospitality. Priced on the higher side, but definitely worth the money!!

Finally a joint which not only lives up to the hype, but also exceeds it. The prices are a bit ott, but all things considered, its worth it. I would have given 5 stars had there been more options for vegetarians. 🤞

Its oldest Iranian restaurant in Ballard estate rather in Mumbai. Authentic parsi/ irani food. All foodies must try Berries Pulao and Caramel custard! P.s. You may see some bollywood celebs here! I saw shraddha kapoor!

It was on my bucket list from a long period of time. However It was not an aww struck experience which I was expecting. Tried their prawns berry pulao which was different but not as good to be recommended to the foodies. Liked the spicy ginger soda and boti masala. Though a costly affair, one visit is still worth. However, I believe there are better Irani cafes around.

A very famous restaurant indeed, but I felt its overpriced and overrared. Food is alright. Quantity is good. Overall I would say, you can try once, but its nothing very impressive

Tasty and authentic food

Very nice authentic irani restaurantberry pulav MUST HAVE

Perhaps the best place to have parai and irani food in Mumbai. Any Mumbai trip is incomplete without a trip to britania and co. this place has its own importance in the culinary culture of mumbai. They are specially known for their iconic salli chicken, pulao and raspberry soda.Salli chicken is very moderately spicy and topped up with the thin potato crips. Pulao is garnished with specially importes chillies from iran and it has a very subtle aroma of spices.Though prices seems expensive it is worth the price.

For a sheer Parsi OR Iranian food experience it’s a delightful experience to enjoy a meal at Britannia! Forget the ambience (which is non-airconditioned and old wooden chairs with fan), it’s the authentic food with good service which will relish! You must try Fresh Bombay-ducks, Berry Pulao, Dhan-shak options available in Chicken and mutton and don’t forget to enjoy Rasberry and custard. Its open only during lunch time and on week-days only. It’s clear with the owners we have live to enjoy too! As all Parses says ‘JamjoJi’ which mean have a good meal. Go with a good appetite you wouldn’t regret the experience.

Tangy taste the chapati they gave were bad in taste the the billing we got was not at all. Worth.. naam badey darshan chotey...sad

It is an Old Iranian/Parsi Cafe. The ambience is calm and comforting. It is very very famous for its Berry Pulao. I tried the Egg Berry Pulao. The Pulao also had gravy in it. It is topped with fried onions,cashews and lots of berries giving it the tangy flavour. It is a must try. For the vegetarians, they also have a veg berry pulao and for the chicken lovers they have chicken,mutton berry pulao as well. Along with that I had Pallonjis famous Raspberry soda. It is also a must try. No cards are accepted there. Payment has to be made in cash only. The staff is also quick and kind. It was a great experience.

The chicken cutlets were fantastic.The sauce with it was a little sweet.Chicken pulav equally good.lovely ambience,Great experience!

This place is one of Bombays treasures!Such yummy food! The Berry pulav is simply amazing and the quantity is great! Two of us couldnt finish it! I was also excited about meeting the 94 year old owner of the restaurant! Who I met and clicked a photo with as well! Hes such a sweetheart! His son was also so kind, he told us stories about the dogs there.Will surely visit again soon!

Amazing Parsi food. Great food, simple ambience. Quick service. Mutton berry pulao was tasty and extremely light.Ordered Salli chicken with rotis. Rotis were soft and tasty and sallo chicken is boneless.Dont miss the Pallonjis Raspberry and Mosambi and ginger drink.End your meal with their out of the world caramel custard.

Old world charm and lovely Parsi cuisine.

Love the food here! Pictured here is the Egg Berry Pulao, Mutton Sali Boti, and Caramel Custard

Iconic & a great place to visit. We decided to visit on Navroz (Parsi New Year 2018). The menu is filled with Parsi delicacies. We tried the Chicken Beri pulav, Mutton Salli boti, Bombay duck, roti, Pullonjis strawberry drink and caramel custard. The food was very yummy. The service was lightening fast. Presentation was super awesome. And the owner was lively and ensured he wished everybody Happy Navroz. Only small issue I had was with the Chicken in the Beri pulav which was hard and chewy. But, in all, the experience was very good. Recommend a visit.

It was my first meal of the day and I was really looking forward to it, and kid you not I was surprised by the menu and the ambiance it was just terrific, the vintage stuff the hangings in the wall every thing was just making it special especially the host he was so welcoming, he was always around.Anyhow if you are at this place the berry pulao is a must must have. I cant wait to go back and taste more of the fabulous food.

Develops successful administrative strategies such as [task] that led to [results]

Dont miss out on meeting Mr.Boman KohinoorThe 97yr old owner who likes keeping his guests engagedProbably one of the oldest restaurants in IndiaServing traditional Parsi fare.Found the food to be really expensive, going by Bangalore standards950 bucks for a berry pulav. But this restaurant is a bucket list item when in Mumbai

Always excellent and quality meal. The best place to try Parsi Cuisine in Mumbai. Though priced on the higher side. The service is good and helpful. I keep going there to entertain non parsi guests. But it is getting seriously expensive and quantities are reducing on the plate.

A must visit place. Berry biryani, salli boti a must try. A lill expensive though.

Wanna experience the parsi food delicacy.. Then this should be in your bucket list..Berry Pulav. Sali chicken or mutton, bombay duck fish and custard or soda leave you mouth shuttering with them.. Historic place to engulf the cuisines nevertheless to the amount you spend... Its a try & feel kinda one.

Cash only. Taste is amazing, but the price is way too high.

This restaurant was the first place to visit when I came to Mumbai ! It looks more like an ancient place to maintain its old look like there was a history chandelier that didnt worked and the plaster was mostly off as can be seen in the pics. Moreover, the owner is very friendly and jolly by nature.

Amazing food with great hospitality... loved the restaurant

Its one of the oldest Parsi restaurant in Mumbai established in 1923 by the Kohinoor family. There are very few irani cafes left in mumbai. You get to see the owner himself, Mr. Boman Kohinoor, 93 yr old, running around taking orders, chatting up with customers and still full of energy.The service is quick and efficient since they have limited menu of parsi variety.The ambience is quite old - British era style which will take you few years back in time. The typical parsi furniture with all sort of management notifications framed on the wall. It is Non-ac Restaurant and is only open during the Lunch Hours that too from Monday to Saturday from 11:30 AM to 4 PM.We ordered Salli chicken and mutton keema with chapatis ( rotlis) which was good very soft and light.We also ordered prawns berry pulav which was amazing especially those berry which are imported from Iran. We also ordered few deserts which were average.Being a fan of Parsi food, have tried other places in fort which are equally better except the berry pulav.So if you want to experience good parsi food which is less expensive you can go to Jimmy boy or ideal corner.This place is bit expensive but must visit at least once to experience the real flavour of berry pulav and please carry cash since the place doesnt accept credit cards.

Before going here I had really high expectations about this place , but to my disappoinment the food wasnt tasted that good. You will get more tasty and authentic food elsewhere than here. They only accept cash ( I dont know why ). You will get vintage feeling here.

Hyped for history, wish it was for food. Average irani fare of berry pulao and sali boti. Little low on flavors (read spice), may be to cater the firangs who love this place. However recommended if you like history...

One of the surviving Parsi joints which sells Berry Pulao and patrani machi

One of the most overrated place in Mumbai, the so-called famous berry pulao is the biggest scam. The raspberry cold drink they sell at 70INR it tastes like cough syrup with zero fizzes. This is not a place for the people who like the taste.

Best food

Food is great. Be it the berry pulav or sali chicken or mutton. And old school establishment with good parsi food. Good ambience. Although place is bit worn worn down but it is definitely worth the visit.

The food was OK... The restaurant itself looks very nice and old-school. Food was served extremely quick but we had higher expectations in terms of taste.

Iconic Parsi Restaurant, only open for lunch on all weekdays. Food is brilliant but expensive.

Britannia and Co restaurant is definitely one of the top legendary Irani cafe in Mumbai. It was started in 1923, you can feel the charm of those old colonial buildings. Everything was perfect starting from flags of India, Iran and England. Then old photos of famous personalities. Coming to food, we ordered chicken berry pulav which was good but it could be better. Chicken was little bit hard, I prefer tender chicken which should melt in your mouth. Otherwise berry pulav was the best i had in Mumbai. Quantity is very less with respect to the money and they dont accept cards. These two things are the major drawbacks.

Heritage eatery of Mumbai. Awarded by the queen of England. Many many memories. The place is same ,old with out any changes in the interior. Now they are famous for their berry pulao, Salli Boti, caramel custurd and Bombay duck fry. It is expensive restaurant, accepts only cash. Food is decent.

One of the oldest restaurant in Mumbai. Their Signature dish Berry pulao and boti are definitely the best food to experience. Custard is way beyond your expectations.

We never taste such kind of food .Not only the food co made beverages are excellent.Icecream soda deserve special mention.

Not up to hype & Overated . Food was just ok . Only thing which was different were their drinks and desserts

The berri pulao is something that you shouldnt miss out when you come here. We also tried the Bombay duck fry which was good.
