Dishoom King's Cross
Lunch lightly or lavishly
Come lunchtime, fill bellies and loosen belts at Dishoom King’s Cross. Within a former railway transit shed (or for Bombayites, a godown), you’ll find the food of all Bombay – its cafés, grills, street stalls and homes.
Our all-day Dishoom King’s Cross menu brims with crowd-pleasing favourites: fancy salads, small plates, fine snackery and fulsome feasts. Lunch lightly or lavishly. Crowd in with colleagues for a swift-but-tasty working lunch (drinks too). Or arrive at midday and linger long into the afternoon over bottomless glasses of steaming chai. Make a daytime booking, or simply come along and walk in. Available daily from 12pm.

Lunch with promptitude!
Book ahead to skip the queue, tuck into a Paneer Roomali Roll or a fancy salad and marvel at our speedy lunchtime service. Brighten business lunches with grilled kebabs, rich curries and hearty vegetarian dishes. Pair with thirst-quenching midday tipples – teetotal or otherwise. Perhaps a cooling Mango Lassi, sparkling Sharbat, or our very good Dishoom IPA.
