Thursday lunchtime
Summer's day and it was quiet. Staff were very friendly and lovely. Genuinely wonderful atmosphere. Apologised for delay.
Prices not bad.
£16 for 3 items and a bottle of water
Sat outside....lovely rear courtyard
Really nice place! The food was delicious especially the samosa chaat and onion bhaji! Hot and cold deshi Cha was also lovely. Service was great and very friendly. I Would certainly recommend Cha & Nasta!
Hidden gem of a restaurant tucked behind the take away storefront. All food is freshly prepared and worth waiting for! Wonderful service and even better food. A must-stop visit for anyone looking for hole in the wall restaurants.
Such a lovely place with delicious food. The owner is friendly and very hospitable. I would highly recommend the paneer kathi roll and the pani puri.
My first time back since September and this lovely place is still fantastic. I had jhaal muri it was very fresh and nice and spicy . Also tried the Chana Aloo Kathi which was very good . All wash down with a very warming cup of deshi cha
I visited Cha & Nasta, St. Alban's for the first time. This is halaal restaurant. It was an amazing experience having lunch here. This is run by family business and most of the staff is female. Food was homely and delicious as well. They have Indian/bangladeshi snacks, curries and main course. Rates of the items are cheap. They have dine-in and take away as well.
We ordered Sev Puri, Papdi chat, Murugh Masala, Murugh kati roll and Pink tea. All the items were good.
Tip 1 : While ordering, please do mention level of spiciness you need.
Tip 2 : This restaurant is closed on Sundays.
A quaint and happy place!! Delicious food…made by really sweet hosts … and a beautifully decorated seating area in the back!! If you are looking for a relaxing time accompanied by good ambience and tasty food .. this is the place .. the hosts go out of their way to make you feel welcome and at home ♥️
Authentic, friendly, and delicious! We come here every time we are in St. Albans. If
you've been to India or Bangladesh, ask them to make it a little more spicy for you.
We got the masala chips and it was really good. We were given some masala tea as well and it was delicious. The owner was really sweet and all the food is homemade. Highly recommended. Definitely going back with my friends again.
What a great little find. Cha Nasta is a family owned and run Bangladeshi restaurant and take away, all supervised by the friendly and helpful Bushrah. The food is from family recipes and is prepared with time and care and it is FULL of flavour but not burning heat. Bushrah can adjust it to suit if you ask. There is the option to take away, but we sat in the open courtyard (there is also a lovely, new summer house area ready for when the chills set in.
Food - great, chai - wonderful, service - brilliant.
Will definitely return.
