Est. 2017OUR HERITAGE
Our journey began in 2017 with “Hayes Paan and Snacks Corner”. Driven by a relentless passion for the rich, authentic flavours of Pakistani Punjab — specifically Lahore, the region's food capital, and Gujranwala, its culinary haven — we evolved.
In 2022, we rebranded as Taste of Village to reflect our true calling: bringing the warmth, spice, and uncompromising quality of traditional, village-style Desi cooking to London.
Authentic Flavours. Charcoal Perfection. We don't just cook food; we share our culture, our home, and our history on every plate.
SIGNATURES OF THE HOUSE
Masterpieces of slow cooking and open-flame grilling, prepared fresh daily.

For meat lovers, our premium Ribeye Steak and slow-cooked Turkey Roast are highly recommended. If you are dining with a group, you cannot go wrong with our massive Grilled Platter for Family, perfectly portioned for 5-6 servings at just £64.

Wake up to the slow-cooked perfection of our Nihari, rich Lamb Paya, and our famous Haleem. For those craving classic street-style breakfasts, we serve fresh, hot Halwa Puri, crispy Chana Paratha, and perfectly spiced Pathora Chana. It is the ultimate authentic Desi Original Nashta experience in town.
