Local tips
- Arrive with an open mind and appetite for sharing. The tapas-style menu encourages ordering multiple small plates to experience the full range of flavours and textures across chaat, sides, and mains.
- Book ahead, especially for Friday and Saturday lunch or evening service. The restaurant fills quickly due to its popularity and intimate size, and walk-ins may face significant waits.
- Try the signature cocktails and mocktails, which are crafted with the same care as the food. The Veri Lime and Lemonis mocktail is particularly refreshing and pairs well with spiced dishes.
- If you have coeliac disease or severe gluten sensitivity, call ahead to discuss cross-contamination protocols and available options before visiting, as the kitchen shares oils and preparation surfaces.
- Visit during afternoon tea service (High Chai) for a curated selection of savouries and sweets at a more relaxed pace than evening dining, or order delivery to your home across Birmingham.

A Slice of Indian Street Culture
Zindiya Streatery & Bar transports diners to the bustling street markets of India without leaving Moseley. Founded by husband-and-wife duo Ajay and Shivani Kenth, the restaurant celebrates the vibrant, diverse food culture that defines Indian street food. Every corner reveals something unexpected—from vintage signs and posters to shuttered shopfronts emblazoned with logos, all bathed in the warm glow of fairy lights. The centrepiece is a stunning hand-painted mural created in collaboration with local crafters and artists, establishing an immersive environment that feels both laid-back and authentically energetic.The Chaat Street Menu and Street Food Philosophy
At the heart of Zindiya's offering is chaat, India's most celebrated street snack, presented across multiple variations. The menu section 'Chaat Street' invites exploration through dahi puri—tangy, sweet, spicy, and crunchy all at once—and samosa chaat, layered with spicy chickpeas, sev, pomegranate seeds, yoghurt, mint, and coriander chutneys. Pan puri, gol gappe, and other traditional street bites sit alongside creative sides like okra lady fingers marinated in gram flour, chilli chips with soya sauce and crunchy peppers, and gunpowder potatoes with spring onions and coriander. This tapas-style approach encourages sharing and discovery, allowing diners to experience multiple flavours in a single visit.Beyond Street Food: A Diverse Culinary Journey
The à la carte selection expands the experience with aromatic prawn curries, crispy battered fish with chaat masala, and spiced wings tossed in chilli sauce. The chicken tikka burger—a British-Indian hybrid topped with mint and coriander chutney and served with sprouting lentil salad—exemplifies the restaurant's creative approach. Dhaba-style curries draw on North Indian flavours, featuring paneer makhani with cottage cheese in creamy tomato sauce and chana masala, a Punjabi staple with chickpeas in spicy, tangy gravy. Everything is freshly prepared, reflecting the restaurant's commitment to quality and flavour depth.Inclusive Dining and Dietary Considerations
Zindiya caters to diverse dietary needs with clearly marked vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free options throughout the menu. The High Chai afternoon tea service offers a curated selection of savouries and sweets, delivering Zindiya's signature dishes directly to homes across Birmingham's suburbs. For those with coeliac disease or severe gluten sensitivity, advance communication with the restaurant is recommended to discuss cross-contamination protocols and available options.Cocktails with Stories
The cocktail menu is as thoughtfully crafted as the food, with each drink telling a story and sharing memories from the owners' experiences in India. Signature offerings include creative mocktails like Veri Lime and Lemonis, which blend citrus brightness with subtle curry spice notes. The bar selection reflects the restaurant's commitment to quality and imagination, elevating the dining experience beyond food alone.Atmosphere and Social Experience
The restaurant thrives as a social hub, welcoming families, groups, and couples into its warm, inclusive environment. The combination of vibrant décor, Bollywood soundtrack, friendly service, and the energy of a bustling Indian street creates an atmosphere that encourages lingering and conversation. Whether visiting for a casual lunch, evening meal, or special occasion, diners consistently report feeling transported and thoroughly entertained by the complete sensory experience.Iconic landmarks you can’t miss
