Dishoom Edinburgh
Halal-friendly fare
For a delectable selection of halal dishes, pay a visit to Dishoom Edinburgh. Within its welcoming interiors – deeply imbued with the spirit of independent India – you’ll find true Bombay comfort food, inspired by treasured corners of the city. From lunchtime onwards, a host of halal-friendly favourites await: flavoursome grills, small plates, moreish chaats and fragrant biryanis. All our lamb, chicken and turkey is sourced from halal-certified suppliers (we keep copies of the certificates), and all non-halal items are stored and prepared separately. Book ahead, or just walk in. Available daily from 12pm.
With love from Bombay
Dine early or late. Graze on halal-friendly small plates and finest snackery, and feast on Dishoom favourites – including our berry-studded Chicken Berry Britannia and slow-simmered House Black Daal. An array of vegetarian delights, too. Or simply quench thirsts with lovingly-brewed House Chai and deeply drinkable teetotal tipples – not a single drop of alcohol within. Perhaps a Mango Lassi, sparkling Sharbat or nostalgic Thums Up.

Salli Boti:— A first-rate Parsi classic (a notable example of which is served at the inimitable Britannia & Co. in Bombay.) Tender halal lamb is braised in a rich and flavoursome gravy then finished with crunchy salli crisp-chips. Served with buttered Roomali Roti.
Chicken Ruby:— Tender halal chicken in a rich, silky makhani sauce. A good and proper curry redolent with spice and flavour.
Dishoom House Chaat:— Warm-cold, sweet-tangy, moreish. Golden-fried sweet potato covered with cool yoghurt, pomegranate, beetroot, radish and carrot. Tamarind drizzle and green chutney lift it nicely.

All our lamb, chicken and turkey are sourced from Halal-certified suppliers, and we have copies of the certificates for your peace of mind. While we do offer items like alcohol, sausages, and bacon, rest assured that all Haram items are prepared separately. They're cooked on dedicated griddles or pans, with utensils thoroughly washed afterwards. These items are also stored separately in our refrigeration area.
