Fresh Ingredients
Whole spices ground in-house, full-cream milk and ginger cut fresh each morning. Nothing from a packet.
Authentic Indian chai, handcrafted snacks, and warm conversations — served fresh every single day.
We obsess over the things that matter — the leaves, the milk, the boil, the welcome. Here is what goes into every cup.
Whole spices ground in-house, full-cream milk and ginger cut fresh each morning. Nothing from a packet.
Single-estate Assam and Nilgiri leaves, selected for a bold, malty body that stands up to spice and milk.
Family recipes carried from Hyderabad to Glasgow — the same masala, the same slow simmer, every time.
Samosas folded and fried through the day, so the pastry is always shattering-crisp and the filling warm.
Warm wood, soft light and room to linger. An adda is a place to stay a while — we built ours that way.
Your chai in minutes, never rushed. Order at the counter or online for pickup — always with a smile.
Brewed on the stove, poured hot, and priced so a great chai is an everyday treat.
In India, an adda is a corner where friends gather, plans are made and hours disappear over endless rounds of chai. We missed it. So we built one on Sauchiehall Street.
Every masala blend is ground in our kitchen, every snack made the way our families taught us. No shortcuts, no syrups — just honest chai and a seat that's always yours.
Come for the tea. Stay for the conversation. That's the whole idea.
Hot, handmade street food — the crunch and comfort that a proper cup deserves.
