Naan Staap®

We had been on our way to get take away kebab rolls from Tayyabs, which is our go-to place in the area. However, it was raining and miserable and we didn't fancy eating out in the rain. I hate eating in at Tayyabs but that's another review, so we saw this interesting looking place with amazing looking karak chai in the window so we ducked in. It was quite empty when we arrived and we had a ponder and ordered a stuffed bread each and a couple of chai. We were 4 people and we had the achari chicken naan, potato and cheese naan, lamb qeema masala naan and lamb dum paratha. We tried both the masala and karak chai, and it was great there are full flavour, less sugar and no sugar options! We had the less sugar, and it was plenty sweet enough! There's a clean loo and nice clean tables and booths. We were still hungry so ordered a portion of bhatura, which is 3 pieces and only £1.95! We had channay, with egg on top, but the flavour wasn't one we were used to, so that was the only dish we weren't so keen on. To finish, we had to try the karak maska, which wasn't on the menu, but we saw it on a screen advert, which was clotted cream sandwiched between 2 pieces of brioche bread loaf, and a cutting chai cupful of karak chai to pour over the top. You then eat with a spoon. Utterly divine! Would highly recommend and would also go out of my way to go here. There are a few branches around London, but none really in convenient locations to me, just like with some of the other mini chains of desi places. :( The service was very polite and super patient with the inevitable uncle complaining about the cost of a cup of chai, but seriously the quality of the chai was top notch, possibly made with condensed milk, and so delicious and mouth watering, I couldn't fault it at all.

Excellent food, service is pretty quick and food is made to order, very fresh. Fantastic service, the cashier was keen to explain the menu and incredibly helpful. He was very polite and accommodating. Thank you.

super tasty!! the naan was so flavourful & i got free chai!! the staff were so nice as well. some may say a perfect lunch

★★★★★ A hidden gem for Karak tea lovers! Their Karak is perfectly spiced and brewed just right - exactly what you need on a chilly London day. The veggie-stuffed naan breads are incredible - fresh, pillowy, and generously filled with crisp vegetables. The combination of their signature Karak tea and naan makes this place truly special. Quick service and reasonable prices too. Definitely worth seeking out if you're craving authentic South Asian flavors in London.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Was early to meet a friend and decided to have some cha. We ended getting their aloo stuffed naan and it was delicious. Freshly made and ingredients hitting the right spots

I recently visited Naan Staap Whitechapel, and I must say the experience was elevated thanks to Taimoor Khan. He truly defines service excellence! From the moment I walked in, his warm welcome, professionalism, and attention to detail made me feel like a valued customer. He handled everything with a smile, was quick with recommendations, and ensured our order was perfect. Taimoor’s dedication to providing the best service stood out — he was courteous, efficient, and went the extra mile to make sure we were satisfied. It’s rare to find someone who takes such pride in their work. Naan Staap is lucky to have him, and I’ll definitely be returning thanks to his exceptional service. Highly recommend both the food and the amazing service by Taimoor Khan!

Food is nice. Service is slow. Portions generally small. Menu misleading - they say the strawberry mojito is made with fresh strawberries. It's not a mojito. It's a syrup with fizzy drink, a slice of lemon and icecubes. Not returning. 👎
