Mandira's Kitchen Menu & Prices — Guildford

Add per person

Our thali for those who want a bit of everything. Pulao, dal, choice of chicken or veg, naan, papad, raita, pickles and a gulab jamun for a sweet ending. (Choice of chicken or veg)

Just like at home, whatever the kitchen's made. Aged basmati rice pulao, veg or chicken curry, crisp papad. (Classic or vegan, child friendly option available)

A homemade spread inspired by the tea trolleys of mandira's childhood, flaky savouries, sweet bites, spiced masala chai, and mango lassi, just like they served on quiet plantation afternoons. Add some bubbles for a grown-up occasion. Note: we recommend pre-ordering our afternoon tea as there may be up to a 30-minute wait during busy times. Sadly we cannot offer a vegan or gf option on our afternoon tea. (For two)

Mandira's pick from calcutta - soft paratha, smoky fillings, zingy onions and secret sauces. A roll with soul. Milder option available. (Chicken or paneer)

Melty cheese, sweetcorn, green chutney, tomato, onion on grilled brioche. A bite of mandira's childhood, with the right kick. (Gf option available)

Handmade crispy pastry, filled with spiced potatoes (ve) or lean minced lamb. Best with tamarind chutney over chai and gossip.

Crisp crackers, cool yoghurt, chutney drizzle, potatoes and chickpeas. Sweet, salty, tangy, messy - a bit like your favourite cousin. (V)

Puffed rice, chutneys, crunchy bits, fresh herbs, a bhel is sweet, sour, spicy and a little bit addictive. (Ve)

Ripe mango, sweet corn, and ruby pomegranate tossed with lime, chaat masala, and a pineapple drizzle. Topped with crunchy sev and fresh coriander. (Ve)

A delicious, spiced veggie mash served with warm buttered bread, fresh onions and a squeeze of lime. Hug in a bowl meets street food swagger - scoopworthy! (Gf option available, v)

Every indian child's first love (and every adult's guilty pleasure). Zero nutrition, full flavour. Served plain or spiced -with decorative veg bits, because we're fancy like that. (Veg or chicken flavour, milder option available)

Where naan meets pizza. Topped with spiced chicken or paneer, chutneys, cheese and fresh coriander. (Chicken or paneer, mild option available)

Spiced lean minced lamb with peas served with buttered warm mumbai bread, onions, lemon - our inhouse favourite. (Gf option available!)

Straight from the gymkhana clubs of india. Spiced nuts tossed with lemon juice, onions and secret masala. Sharp, salty, and seriously moreish. Best shared over drinks... or not shared at all. (Ve)

Crisp papad topped with tangy-spicy onion-tomato mix - the perfect sidekick to any meal. (Ve)

Soft, fluffy, and shamelessly buttery. The kind of naan that makes you forget cutlery exists. Best enjoyed with our slow-cooked dal makhani. (V)

Handmade whole wheat crackers, cumin studded crisped to perfection. Served with our signature pineapple chutney -a little heat, a little tang, a lot of flavour. (Ve)

A fresh toss of chickpeas, tomato, onion, and coriander with a squeeze of house green chutney. Our go to side for everything.

Slow-cooked - warm and soul-warming. Add a buttered naan for a match made in heaven. (V)

The lovechild of carrot cake and my grandma's spice tin. Laced with our signature garam masala, and served with a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream.

Fresh carrots, slowly simmered in milk and kissed with cardamom and nuts. Just like they'd serve at home, if home were somewhere far away and full of stories.

The classic indian gulab jamun in a cheesecake, with a spiced ginger crumb. Not quite east, and not quite west.

Condensed milk dumplings soaked in a cardamom and saffron infused syrup.

Choose any three from our small-batch range: mango & cardamom, fig & almond, lychee martini (ve), coconut & pineapple chutney, watermelon & tamarind (ve), chai & pistachio.
