Chakna | Bar Nibbles
Nachani Papad & Dips
(Millet Crisps | Thecha | Chundo | Pachadi)
GF, V, NF, VG-A 13.80
Regardless of the region you go to in India, a theme that unites all verandas is the age-old tradition of sun drying – whether it is fruits, vegetables, spices or our personal favourite – papads/ papadums. We pair Nachani Papad with the fiery kick of Maharashtra's Thecha, the sweet tanginess of Gujarat's Chundo, and the creamy delight of Kerala's Pachadi.
Parsi Bun Maska
(Toasted Potato Buns | Homemade White Butter)
V, NF, NOG, GF-A, VG-A, DF-A 4.80
A simple joy from Irani cafés and railway platforms across India — soft, toasted potato buns generously slathered with our house-made white butter. Buttery, warm, and made to be dipped in chai, just the way we remember.
Mathri Achaar
(Flaky Crisps | Homemade Pickle)
V, VG, DF, NF, NOG 8.80
When the craving for a little something hits, mathri and achar are here to save the day. Crisp, flaky bites of spiced mathri paired with tangy-pickle. A timeless Indian snack that's perfect for those in-between moments or as a delightful companion to your favourite drink.
Kerala Pazham Pori
(Ripe plantain | Lightly spiced batter | Crisp-fried)
V, VG, DF, NF, NOG 10.80
Golden, crisp, and straight out of Kerala’s evening kitchens — Pazham Pori is our take on the humble banana fritter, made with ripe banana and lightly spiced batter. In Southern India, this is what you’d get with your 4pm chai, whether you were stuck indoors during monsoon or visiting a friend unannounced. At Veranda Indian, it’s just as perfect with a cup of tea, as a sweet bar snack, or an end-of-meal treat.

CHAAT
Old Delhi Aloo Tikki
(Crispy Aloo Tikki | Chickpeas | Murabba | 2PCS)
V, NF 17.80
A street side classic from the bustling lanes of Old Delhi! Crisp, golden aloo tikki, hearty chole, with a surprise twist of sweet and tangy apple murabba. A bite of nostalgia with a dash of the unexpected.
Bengal Churmur
(Broken Crisps | White Peas | Potato)
V, VG, DF, NF, NOG 16.80
Somewhere between a chaat and a crush-it-yourself snack, Bengal Churmur is the kind of street food that demands to be eaten with your hands. A tangle of soft white peas, boiled potatoes, and crisp bits smashed together, soaked in tangy tamarind, mint & coriander chutney and our house spice blend. Fresh coriander adds brightness, and every bite is a riot of textures—soft, crunchy, spicy, sour. It’s messy, nostalgic, and completely plant-based, just like the best street food should be.
Pani Puri
(Puffed Wheat Balls | Potato | Spiced Water | 8 PCS)
V, VG, DF, NF, NOG 14.80
There’s a reason paani puri always comes in dozens—one is never enough. The crunch, the explosion of flavours, the refreshing hit of spice and tang—it’s a moment of pure joy, just like it was back when you first tasted it. Whether you call it golgappa, puchka, or paani batasha, one thing stays the same: it always leaves you wanting more.
Delhi Sweet Potato Winter Chaat
(Sweet Potato | Lotus Root Crisps | Homemade Tomato Chutney)
V, GF, NF, NOG 16.80
Winter vacations bring back the memories of spending time around bonfires, roasting sweet potatoes and listening to listening to the elders recounting kisse and kahaniyan (anecdotes and stories). This chaat is a nod to those slow, smoky, story-filled evenings.
Dahi Puri
(Puffed Wheat Balls | Yogurt | Tamarind | Mint & Coriander Chutney | 6 PCS)
V, NF, NOG 14.80
Little rounds of happiness filled with sweetness, spiciness & tanginess
Papdi Chaat
(Crispy Homemade Papdi | Chutneys | Sev)
V, NF 15.80
Crispy papdis, tangy chutneys, cooling yoghurt and a sprinkle of spices come together in this vibrant street-food classic.
Small Plates
Butter Chicken Pockets
(Butter Chicken | Pita Bread | 2PCS)
GF-A 19.80
Butter Chicken, but make it handheld. Juicy tandoori chicken, smothered in that rich, velvety makhani sauce, all tucked into a warm, convenient pocket. Same bold flavours, zero fuss — just grab, bite, and enjoy.
Chennai Chicken 65
(Crisp Chicken | Curry Leaf | Homemade Chilli Sauce)
GF, NF 21.80
Spiced, crisp, and straight out of Chennai’s street food playbook—our Chicken 65 is all about bold flavours and fiery kicks. Juicy chicken bites are marinated with South Indian spices, fried to golden perfection, and tossed with curry leaves and green chilli. No sauce needed, just pure, addictive crunch.
Bhatti Murgh Tikka
(Chicken thigh | Turmeric | Hung yoghurt | Charred bell pepper purée)
GF, NF 19.80
Not all tikkas are red. This yellow version gets its striking hue from turmeric and dahi (hung yoghurt), slow-marinated with warming spices and cooked over open flames for that unmistakable bhatti char. Served with a velvety fire-roasted bell pepper purée, this is comfort food with grit and heart.
Lucknow Shami Kebab Slider
(Lamb Patty | Slider Bun | Walnut & Flaxseed Chutney)
GF-A 21.80
Legend has it that the Shami Kebab was born out of indulgence. A Nawab in Lucknow, famed for his love of fine food, had lost all his teeth—but none of his appetite. Determined to keep his patron well-fed, his royal khansama crafted a kebab so tender, it needed no chewing at all.
Our version honours that legacy. Slow-cooked lamb and chana dal are blended with house-ground spices, then shaped into delicate patties that are crisp on the outside, melt-in-your-mouth within. This is more than just a kebab. It’s a quiet nod to culinary creativity, royal indulgence, and the kind of cooking that puts care above shortcuts.
Rawalpindi Chole Pockets
(Slow cooked Chickpeas | Ginger | Green Chillies | Homemade Masala | Homemade Pickle)
V, VG-A, NF, NOG, DF-A 19.80
No onion, no garlic—just pure, bold flavour. This is how chole was made in the streets of Rawalpindi long before shortcuts existed. Slow-cooked chickpeas soak up the warmth of ginger, the heat of green chillies, and the depth of our homemade masala, creating a dish that’s as simple as it is powerful. We tuck it into soft pockets of bread, letting the spices do the talking. A side of homemade achaar brings that extra kick—because some things are best left unchanged.
CRISPY Paneer Sliders
(Paneer | Homemade Tomato Chutney | Spiced Onions)
V, NF 19.80
This one’s for the kids who grew up on bread pakoras and paneer cutlets tucked between slices of white bread. Our take swaps the loaf for a soft slider bun, filled with golden, crispy paneer, a smear of tangy homemade tomato chutney, and spiced onions for crunch. It’s playful, comforting, and full of those after-school snack vibes — just the way mum used to make, but with a little Veranda twist.
MAHARASHTRA Kothimbir Vadi
(Coriander | Chickpea flour | Spices | House chutney)
GF, DF, VG, V 15.80
A Maharashtrian tea-time staple, this coriander-packed snack is where simplicity meets bold flavour. Fresh kothimbir (coriander) is folded into a spiced chickpea flour batter, steamed till set, then shallow-fried until golden and crisp at the edges. Served with a side of our house chutney, it’s earthy, herbaceous, and deeply nostalgic — like sitting in your aaji’s kitchen on a breezy afternoon, waiting for the vadi to cool (but burning your fingers anyway).
Kalonji Paneer TIKKA
(Paneer | Nigella seeds | Hung yoghurt | Mild spices)
V, GF, NF 19.80
Inspired by Farrukhabad wali Nani’s signature paneer tikka, this version is gently marinated with kalonji (nigella seeds), hung yoghurt, and mild spices. The result is a tikka that’s soft, delicately flavoured, and never overpowering — just the way Nani made it. A comforting favourite across all ages, and surprisingly popular with toddlers too.
Bombay Veg Frankie Slider
(Potato | Schezwan | Frankie Masala | 2 PCS)
V, NF, VG-A, DF-A 18.80
If you know, you know. The OG Indian wrap, born on the streets of Mumbai, packed with flavour and made to be eaten on the go. Our version keeps it real—homemade potato patty, our signature Schezwan sauce, and a dusting of house-blended Frankie masala, all wrapped up just right. Spicy, tangy, and deeply satisfying—because some things don’t need reinventing, just done right.
BIG Plates
Punjab Paneer Parantha (2 pcs)
(Paneer Parantha | Homemade White Butter | Yogurt | Mixed Pickle)
V, NOG, NF 21.80
Straight from the heart of Punjab, this is comfort on a plate. A golden, flaky parantha stuffed with spiced paneer, ginger, coriander, and chilli, served with cool yogurt, mixed pickle, and a generous dollop of homemade butter—just like it should be.
Rajasthan Dal Baati Churma (3pcs)
(Panchmel Lentils | Ghee | Hard Unleavened Bread | Sugar | Spices)
V, NOG 26.80
Born in the deserts of Rajasthan, Dal Baati Churma is a story of resilience, of making the most of what the land offers. In a place where water is scarce and the sun is relentless, warriors and travellers needed food that could last for days. The baati—hardy wheat dumplings—were once buried in hot sand, slowly baking under the desert sun. When hunger struck, they were cracked open, softened with ghee, and eaten with protein-rich dal - Panchmel, a Marwari delicacy, a hearty, spiced lentil stew. And because every meal deserves a sweet ending, churma was born—crushed baati mixed with sugar and yet more ghee, turning survival into indulgence. This isn’t just food; it’s the taste of Rajasthan’s spirit—bold, rich, and unforgettable.
Smoked Black Dal & Malabar Parotta
(Slow-cooked black lentils | Kerala-style layered bread | Homemade white butter)
V, NF, NOG 28.80
This is the kind of plate that slows you down — a smoky, comforting black dal simmered for hours, just like it would be on a charcoal chulha, served with flaky, layered Malabar parotta and a generous scoop of our homemade white butter. It’s a meal that doesn’t try too hard — just honest, nostalgic, and soul-satisfying. A quiet tribute to slow kitchens and the everyday rituals that shaped us.
Lucknow Shami Lamb Kebab Burger
(Lamb | Chana Dal | Homemade Masala)
GF-A 24.80
Legend has it that the Shami Kebab was born out of indulgence. A Nawab in Lucknow, famed for his love of fine food, had lost all his teeth—but none of his appetite. Determined to keep his patron well-fed, his royal khansama crafted a kebab so tender, it needed no chewing at all.
Our version honours that legacy. Slow-cooked lamb and chana dal are blended with house-ground spices, then shaped into delicate patties that are crisp on the outside, melt-in-your-mouth within. This is more than just a kebab. It’s a quiet nod to culinary creativity, royal indulgence, and the kind of cooking that puts care above shortcuts.
Kolkata Fish & Chips
(Crisp Barramundi Fillets | Shoestring Fries | Kasundi Mustard Sauce)
DF 29.80
A Calcutta street favourite meets a Western classic. Golden-fried barramundi fillets in a light, spiced batter served with crunchy shoestring fries and a side of punchy Bengali kasundi — a mustard sauce with serious personality. Comfort food with a sharp edge.
dESSERT
Kheer Brûlée
Rice Pudding | Brûlée | Blueberry Compote
VG, GF, DF, V, NF, NOG
Our Kheer Brûlée layers traditional kheer with a caramelised brûlée top, finished with a fresh berry compote for a pop of colour and taste. It made its debut on Sharad Purnima, a night known for its bright moonlight—just like the shine of this dish on your table!
Kulfi Falooda & Rabdi
(Milk | Cardamom | Rose | Saffron | Vermicelli | Basil Seeds)
V, NOG
Some desserts are just meant to be an experience. Kulfi—a richer, creamier cousin of ice cream—is slow-cooked milk infused with cardamom, then frozen into a dense, melt-in-your-mouth delight. Falooda brings the fun—silky vermicelli noodles, chewy basil seeds, and a drizzle of rose syrup come together for layers of texture and flavour. And then there’s the rabdi—thick, luscious, and simmered to perfection, tying it all together with a touch of nostalgia. It’s indulgent, refreshing, and just the right kind of messy—the way all good things should be.
Gajar Halwa
(Carrots | Milk | Sugar | Ghee)
V, GF, NOG 10.80
Not the kind you find in sweet shops — this one’s straight from our childhood winters. Slow-cooked the way mums and grandmums made it at home, using carrots, milk, and just enough sugar to let the carrots shine. No shortcuts, no khoya, no fancy garnishes — just the comforting, homestyle version that filled the house with warmth and the smell of love.
Kerala Pazham Pori
(Ripe plantain | Lightly spiced batter | Crisp-fried)
V, VG, DF, NOG 10.80
Golden, crisp, and straight out of Kerala’s evening kitchens — Pazham Pori is our take on the humble banana fritter, made with ripe banana and lightly spiced batter. In Southern India, this is what you’d get with your 4pm chai, whether you were stuck indoors during monsoon or visiting a friend unannounced. At Veranda Indian, it’s just as perfect with a cup of tea, as a sweet bar snack, or an end-of-meal treat.
