Bawarchi - Brent

Tina not only was a lovely person but she helped me choose my dish . I had been visiting my Mother in the local hospital and so it was a tough day . She made me feel so welcome , immediately offered me a carafe of water and suggested I had a masala chai . This was just what I needed , along with her cooking and heartfelt chat . Lovely little restaurant to sit in too ….

Bawarchi is an old fashioned Indian restaurant that caters mostly to its local community round Kensal Rise and Queens Park in North West London. If you 're a regular they remember who you are and they chat. (They also offer an after dinner drink on the house). We visited last just before lockdown and everything, apart from the mood of the staff, because they weren 't looking forward to another burst of inactivity, was as it should be. The poppadoms were crisp and light, the naans were fluffy and dangerously more-is, the Pathia special (recommended) was spicy, the chana dal creamy. Good value, friendly and tasty food (try the sizzling dishes). It 's just a shame that you can only get it as a takeaway now (delivery to local addresses is free). But we have to make the most of things as they are, so give 'em a ring and place your order!

Great place to go with friends, lovely friendly staff who care about you having a good meal and are also active in the community. Tables well spaced and clean, food cooked to order and best of all they give you time to enjoy your meal

I called tonigh to order a collection at the end of the order I said I'd like to pay by card please No you can't pay by card. I explained my mum is on her way but doesn't have her card she's just collecting. The response was NO you can't and dont ask my why you can't take it or leave it!!!! So rude so I hung up and checked online reviews and Thank you for being so rude because I've now just found the best curry house in Willesden Lane called Bombay bicycle and the food is 5 star so fresh and the taste. So now my friends if you read this review try Bombay Bicycle Much better food and customer service.

I came here for dinner with a friend. I ordered the chicken momo as a starter and the lamb jalfrezi as a main. Both dishes were cooked well. Service was attentive and the place is cosy.
