bangalorebooths with peopleIf you’ve ever romanticized about exploring the tastes of India on a train, then Bangalore Express in London is your kind of joint. Here, contemporary Indian cuisine is served to heaps of young and enthusiastic Londoners, within an interior that unabashedly mimics train booths – only more sleek and modern. Linear grooved walls with abstract painted blocks, tube steel ladders, and double height booths create the coach-vibe though a real sense of intimacy still remains.

And then there’s the food. bangalore foodEclectic options are paired next to classics like tandoori, dosas, and curries. All are fragrant, flavor, cheerful, and cheap, making it an addictive combination when coupled with the lengthy wine list, and quirky design. Admittedly, there are gripes about their service, but healthy, tasty, and fast, quality food means Bangalore Express is solidly packed. So next time you’re in London, jump aboard.
