Good simple menu that executed very well. Excellent succinct wine list. Importantly, dog friendly too! Our dog was spoiled by the staffs and customers.

Such a different experience, it was a great night out. Servers were so friendly and welcoming, definitely recommend, but its a bit on the pricier side if you’re really going to enjoy it.

Hammersmith

Patri has several meanings, in Hindi it means Pavement, in Urdu it means Track and in ancient Sanskrit its means a vessel or small furnace. The name took us back to our origins and we decided to use Pavement, Tracks, and Furnace to come up with a street food menu containing all three elements. Our starters are street food classics on pavements in India and Pakistan. Our grills are freshly cooked in the tandoor at over 400 degrees to replicate cooking in a furnace. Our curries are inspired by the railway cooks on train journeys in India.

Founder and Head Cook Puneet Wadhwani, has created a never-before-seen menu bringing to life the snacks and dishes he once ate as a child growing up within a bicycle ride of New Delhi train station.
Experience the depth and aromas of Proper Indian Street Food.
With a small yet cozy outdoor deck enjoy our award-winning food and sip cocktails, medal-winning wines, and craft beer in a leafy village surrounding. Let us take you on a journey.

Lovely food and would definitely recommend in that aspect but please make sure you ask how long you have your table for as we were there only an hour and still halfway through main course that we were told by the manager we need to hurry up as they need the table for another booking. We weren’t informed that we only have the table for an hour. We then got the bill but we were not happy as 2 ppl from our group were still eating their meal. We said that this is not on as we can’t rush our food still not had desert or coffee. Manager then snatched the bill from the table and walked off. Not very professional at all. My friends then ordered their tea but was luke warm when it came. So we said to take that off the bill. One of the waiters was very nice, young lad who brought us our new bill. We asked to take off service charge as weren’t very happy. He did so. Thankyou to him. The food was yummy so would definitely recommend in that aspect.

It was a phenomenal night. Ignore old reviews, they’re definitely out of date. The cabaret was a real showcase of amazingly talented people between singers, a circus act, comedian and burlesque dancers this place has it all. Staff were lovely throughout the night; they sat us down and it’s table service during the show so the cocktails flowed all night. The place turned into a members club after the show but we were allowed to stick around until late. Fabulous place, definitely would recommend.
