Tucked away on the vibrant Brick Lane, Bahara Indian Kitchen & Culture offers a colourful setting for private dining in the heart of East London. Whether you’re planning a birthday celebration, family gathering, business dinner or special occasion with friends, the restaurant combines warm hospitality with authentic Indian cooking in a characterful space in Shoreditch. For more intimate occasions, a private dining room seats up to ten guests, while the main restaurant can also be hired exclusively for larger celebrations.
Private dining menus showcase dishes inspired by the diverse flavours of India, with plenty of options to share around the table. Guests can begin with favourites such as poppadoms, dahi puri and handmade samosas before exploring dishes from the tandoor, including paneer tikka, tandoori mushrooms, tandoori chicken and seekh kebabs. Main courses range from rich paneer butter masala to classic butter chicken, accompanied by freshly baked naan breads, rotis, fragrant rice and a selection of traditional sides. To finish, desserts include syrup-soaked gulab jamun and kulfi in pistachio or mango flavours.
The drinks list offers something for every occasion, with wines, Champagne, beers, cocktails, mocktails, spirits and hot drinks all available. Signature cocktails include the Rose Lychee Martini and Whisky Sour, making them an ideal accompaniment to a celebratory meal.
Inside, colourful murals inspired by Indian art, statement chandelier-style lighting and comfortable seating create a welcoming atmosphere that’s full of character. The restaurant’s vibrant facade, painted in soft green and pink tones, makes an eye-catching first impression, while the cosy interiors provide an inviting backdrop for long lunches, evening celebrations and memorable private dinners.
Located just moments from Spitalfields Market, it’s also well placed for extending the celebrations with a stroll through one of East London’s liveliest neighbourhoods before or after your meal.
