"As far as handheld, two-gobble snacks go, vada pav—a slider-sized Maharashtrian snack of deep-fried potato in a little doughy white bread bap, alongside whacks of chilli and coconut chutneys—is very much up there. Get one, or three at Shree Krishna Vada Pav in Harrow. It’s a colourful, casual, fast food-ish space that’s just as good for a solo lunch as it is a quick and delicious good-value dinner. If you’re after something heartier and more gravy-heavy, get the vada misal or the methi malai mutter." - heidi lauth beasley, rianne shlebak, jake missing
"There must be science behind why canapé and slider-sized bites are often so satisfying. Maybe it’s because they’re two, maybe three mouthfuls, and they’re gone. But it also relies on them being as delicious and as flavourful as the menu from Shree Krishna Vada Pav. The Maharashtrian mini-chain, with casual in-and-out restaurants in Hounslow, Ilford, Harrow, and Wembley, specialises in deep-fried bits in doughy white bread baps, alongside whacks of chilli and coconut chutneys. Onion bhajiya, potato bhajiya, a Sichuan samosa—you name it, they’ll put it between bread." - jake missing, rianne shlebak, sinead cranna
"This mini-chain has locations in Hounslow, Ilford, Wembley, and more, all specialising in vada pav. It’s a slider-sized Maharashtrian snack of deep-fried potato in a little doughy white bread bap, alongside whacks of chilli and coconut chutneys. As far as handheld, two-gobble snacks go, these are very much up there. The Wembley location is boxed away in the top corner of a glassy food hall, and like all of them, is a colourful, casual, fast food-ish space that’s just as good for a solo lunch as it is a quick and delicious good-value dinner. If you’re after something heartier and more gravy-heavy, get the vada misal or the methi malai mutter, and be content in the knowledge that very little here costs more than £10." - jake missing, rianne shlebak, heidi lauth beasley, daisy meager, sinead cranna
"You’ll find Shree Krishna Vada Pav’s Wembley location up in the top corner of Trader Wembley—a big, industrial food hall with an almost IMAX-sized projector screen playing Sky Sports on loop. There’s a bar on one side too, so if you’re interested in the unbeatable combination of cold beer and Maharashtrian vegetarian snacks (a pre-match, half-time, and post-match vada pav is an excellent idea), then there’s nowhere better to do it." - jake missing
"The Wembley branch of Shree Krishna Vada Pav is boxed away in the top corner of glassy food hall Trader Wembley. Like other outposts of SKVP, it makes all kinds of vada and pav combinations, as well as a handful of curries. The Maharashtrian slider-sized snacks are always satisfying but, depending on the size of the crowd, aren’t always the most consistently made. Still, it continues to make a strong argument to be the best chain around and if every major train station in London had a SKVP, there’s now doubt this city would be a happier place." - jake missing
