Chakra Restuarant

Chakra is an inventive and pioneering group of Indian restaurants, located in Kensington and Kingston (with further sites being planned in 2020) that delivers healthy and intelligently re-invented Indian cuisine and cocktails in uniquely themed restaurants that have been designed to uplift the soul. Chakra rewrites the Indian restaurant rulebook in terms of the experience that it delivers, adapting timeless Indian recipes, using ingredients that positively impact a diner’s sense of wellbeing, without compromising on flavour. Both restaurants are a sanctuary to escape to. Teal colour palettes, harmonious accent colours and an abundance of vegetation come together to create an oasis of calm–that balance all the Chakras (centres of energy within the body).
