The Chakra Lounge — Restaurant in Sheffield

March 2025 – 💫 It’d been a while since I last visited Chakra Lounge in Sheffield, where I had previously enjoyed one of their evening events. More recently, my foodie friend Sophie (@chef_in_sheff) and I visited their Sheffield branch for a weekend breakfast. Why I’d never been for breakfast here before, is beyond me, as it was incredible.

With a vast menu of delectable Desi-style breakfast/brunch dishes with an English touch, you’re sure to find something to set off your taste buds with the ancient flavour of India! From a wide range of adventurously flavoured hot and cold drinks to a fully vegetarian & vegan food menu, we were overcome with so many amazing options.

We enjoyed; ⭐I went for the Breakfast Waffles with vegan sausages, avo & pea smash, halloumi, fried onion, fennel-nut mix, drizzles with maple syrup. I added a fried egg on top (of course) and the hash browns (🐷). Wow, this was stacked high! It was incredible. I really didn’t need that much food, but I loved it! ⭐Sophie went with the Desi English Breakfast which is completely vegan as a standard with vegan sausages, hash browns, masala chickpeas and smashed avocado & added halloumi and scrambled eggs – this was a massive plateful! A bit too much for one, but it looked fantastic️! ⭐Chakra Masala chai, a hazelnut mocha and the famous iced matcha and rose latte which was subtle but beautiful! ⭐We may have taken some bakes home too for the boys (or us really haha)️

Wow, what a delightful morning. This café is gorgeously decorated to enjoy a tranquil time whilst trying out some of the most delicious Indian-inspired, authentic food and drinks. They also have a downstairs area, popular for peaceful workspaces.

We recently visited a delightful Indian café that left us thoroughly impressed and eager to return. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted by the warm and friendly staff, whose attentiveness made us feel right at home. They ensured that every need was met with genuine smiles and excellent service.

The café boasts an extensive menu with an incredible variety of dishes, catering to all tastes. Whether you're after traditional Indian curries, street food favourites, or lighter bites, there's something for everyone. The selection of hot and cold drinks is equally impressive, ranging from classic chai lattes and aromatic coffees to refreshing lassis and iced teas.

The prices are refreshingly reasonable, making it an ideal spot for a casual meal or a treat without breaking the bank. Be warned, though: the larger meals come in incredibly generous portion sizes. We found ourselves marveling at the hearty servings, perfect for those with a big appetite or for sharing with friends.

Despite the café being busy, our food was served quickly and arrived hot and beautifully presented. The dishes were bursting with flavour, clearly prepared with fresh, high-quality ingredients. The staff remained attentive throughout, checking in to ensure everything was to our satisfaction without being intrusive.

This café strikes the perfect balance between quality, service, and value. Whether you're stopping by for a quick drink, a light snack, or a full meal, you're bound to leave happy and satisfied. It's not often you find such a gem that gets everything right, but this place does just that.

We’ll definitely return to explore more of the menu and enjoy the warm, welcoming atmosphere again. Highly recommended for anyone looking for great Indian food with...

Tried the food at Chakra Lounge for the first time today! Before today I'd only ever been to get a takeaway chai latte (their chai is so good and creamy) and thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience.

The service was excellent, really friendly staff who looked after us really well and checked on us often. The atmosphere was super relaxing with lovely incense burning, that along with the decor makes it a gorgeous little gem in the city.

Most importantly: the food! I had the vegan thali, with the special Tiramisu latte and finished off with almond and pistachio torte.

The thali is great value for money, as you can see in the video you get a really decent amount of food - a generous helping for one person, or could share between two and try something else off the menu alongside it. The thali had 2 kinds of curry, chutney, rice, lovely salad, poppadoms and (loads of!) naan bread. As a vegan I rarely find naan bread at a restaurant so this was a lovely treat and the bread itself was fluffy and delicious. The almond and pistachio torte has an amazing texture and is filling! Their drinks are all amazing - my group of friends tried a few different ones and everyone really...
