Located in the heart of Moseley, Zindiya Streatery and Bar is a lively Indian restaurant that brings the bustling spirit of India’s street markets to Birmingham. Created by husband-and-wife duo Ajay and Shivani Kenth, Zindiya is a labour of love inspired by their teenage dream to recreate the immersive experience of Indian street food culture. The restaurant’s name blends “Zindagi,” meaning life, with their daughter’s name, Diya, symbolising light and splendour.
Zindiya’s vibrant interiors transport guests straight to the colourful lanes of Delhi, Mumbai, and Kolkata. With rickshaw booths, vibrant décor, and artwork by local crafters, it’s a feast for the senses. The venue seats up to 90 people, making it an ideal spot for private hire. Whether it’s a birthday, corporate event, or festive gathering, Zindiya’s atmosphere and extensive menu promise a unique celebration.
The menu is a love letter to Indian street food, with bold flavours and fresh ingredients taking centre stage. Begin with pani puri, a playful combination of crispy wheat balls filled with potatoes, chickpeas, and tangy tamarind water, or gunpowder aloo chaat, a spiced potato dish with fragrant chutneys. Move on to heartier fare from the dhaba curries selection, like the rich butter chicken or the comforting chana masala. The grill street section serves up smoky delights such as chicken tikka burger and lamb chops, cooked over charcoal and served with zesty dips.
For group bookings, Zindiya offers their High Chai Afternoon Tea, a delightful twist on a classic. Think cardamom scones, gingerbread macarons, and savoury treats like aloo tikki chaat paired with fragrant masala chai. It’s a perfect way to enjoy an afternoon of conversation and delicious bites with friends or family.
With its vibrant atmosphere, flavour-packed dishes, and warm hospitality, Zindiya is an unforgettable venue for hosting events that your guests will rave about.
