Punjab Shaftesbury Wing

In the heart of Covent Garden, Punjab Shaftesbury Wing sits beside the iconic Punjab restaurant, celebrating the depth and warmth of Punjabi cooking. The glow of the tandoor and the perfume of toasted spices set the tone, promising comfort, generosity and vivid flavour.

The menu moves from crisp beginnings to slow-cooked satisfaction. Light starters such as pakora and aloo tikki lead into tandoori favourites like chicken tikka and lamb tikka, rich with char and smoke. Curries follow, from the silky comfort of butter chicken and the bright lift of chicken karahi to the aromatic depth of lamb rogan josh and lamb karahi.

Seafood takes the spotlight with king prawn bhuna and banan macchi tikka, while vegetarian classics such as saag paneer and aloo gobi hold their own. Papadam and raita keep things lively, biryani brings fragrance to the table, and naan or garlic naan is always close at hand for the final swipe of sauce.

For those seeking familiar comforts, generous flavours and the theatre of the tandoor, Punjab Shaftesbury Wing delivers with quiet confidence. It is a place to linger, share and let the curry do the talking.
