About Masala Chai

Masala chai is black tea simmered with milk, sugar and spices such as ginger, cardamom, cinnamon and cloves. It is the drink of India, sold on every street corner.

Regional versions

Every stall and home has its own blend. Cutting chai in Mumbai is a half glass, adrak chai is heavy on ginger, and Kashmiri noon chai is pink and salted.

What to order with it

Have it with samosas, pakoras or a biscuit. Most restaurants make it to order.

How this list is made

We started from public records, OpenStreetMap and Overture Maps, searched town by town for places those records miss, and read each restaurant's menu from its website or online ordering page. Places whose opening hours we could not confirm recently say so, and we check them again every month. Dishes marked "on the menu" come from the restaurant's own website or ordering page. "Usually served" is our best guess from the style of the place, so call ahead if you have your heart set on it.

Missing a place, a dish or a closure? Tell us and we will fix it.
