An invitation to attend the soft launch of our newest café

After much daydreaming, rule-writing and researching of the 1970s Bombay financial scene and its (clean and shady) characters, at long last we have the keys to our brand-new home in Canary Wharf

We will officially open our doors on Wednesday 30th November, but before then, and in preparation, we are so very excited to invite you to the soft launch of our newest, swishest café.

Our soft launch will run until 3pm on Tuesday 29th November. As a thank you for joining us during these early stages, all food can be enjoyed at 50% off across breakfast, lunch and dinner – too good, you simply must come (please, take a look at our menus and be fully convinced)!

Dates:– Tuesday 15th November until 3pm on Tuesday 29th November.

Offering:– 50% off food only.

Reservations:– Bookings are now full but walk-ins are welcomed warmly. Simply drop by at any time, we're so looking forward to seeing you.

So, come one, come all, we simply cannot wait to see you, serve you and to show you around our rather snazzy new place. In the meantime, we suggest you lose yourself in the first chapter of our newest founding myth...Read Chapter One and watch the trailer here.

Kindly note:– Our soft launch discount is reflective of the fact that these are some of the very first shifts for our team, so whilst we’ll aim to deliver an experience that is every bit as good as you should expect from us, please do excuse any little hiccups that may occur. Festive feasting menus and specials will not be served during our soft launch, but will be available once we officially open our doors on Wednesday 30th November.

Dishoom Loves. Issue XVIII.

The July issue of Dishoom Loves is already here (and perky, for your eyes). Fill your mind with some of the best South Asian talent, from a 17-year-old playwright sharing her life story, to a beauty expert’s top tips and tricks. And, a doctor who writes about henna.

Permit Room Cambridge: A tribute to 1970s Bombay

Arched into the cobbled lane of Trinity Street, behind a mustard yellow door, an all-day bar-café cuts loose. Not to be confused with the buzzy bars in Dishoom cafés, this Permit Room is entirely other – a tribute to the way Bombay kicks back and cuts loose – a salute to the city’s permit rooms, beer bars and drinking holes.

Dishoom Loves. Issue XVII.

June brings the promise of sun-drenched days – or monsoons – balmy nights and a smattering of first-class cultural happenings.
