About

What it’s like

Amala Chai began selling chai in London in 2019, using founder Akhil’s grandmother’s recipe. The tea and spices come straight from small family farms in Assam and Kerala, and the spice blends are ground in the UK from each year’s harvest. The King’s Cross outpost is a tuk tuk on Pancras Square, open every day from 8am to 7pm. The brand runs a second stall at the King’s Cross Square market outside the station.
