The reason selecting the title is that be prepared to wait. You will get impatient, you will be tempted to look elsewhere (fortunately there are almost no choices in the neighbourhood) you will get frustated... and if its raining you will get grumpy. But believe me, at the end of it when you have a bite of the berry pulav... More

I had heard a lot about this place. So this was on my must visit list whenever I visited Mumbai. And now after eating there, I have to say that the meal was truly Full Mazaa! As others have mentioned, this place is open only for lunch and closed on Sundays. Locating the place was slightly difficult. Perhaps the best... More

A typical Parsi cafe, located at Ballard Pier, I found Britannia over hyped. The restaurant is only running due to its legacy. I found the joint just another joint. The much hyped chicken berry pulav is not that tasty or may be "no longer" that tasty. Its just rice fried with cashew nut and berry, and served with a bland... More

Ok so if you're new to Mumbai and are looking out to try authentic persian cuisine at affordable rates then Britannia is the place to go! Tucked away in the bylanes behind Ballard Pier, the area is calm and perfect for a quite afternoon. Must try the Berry Pulao, as it totally lives up to all that you're going to... More

So finally I had my first lunch at Britannia today. I had heard about it since so long and been recommended by so many of thousands of people, and all of them were right. The food here is exceptional. I had chicken berry pulao, mutton sali and roti. Chicken berry pulao was the outstanding dish for me. The taste of... More

Try the Berri Pulao, and Brittania's caramel custard which are the signature items of the restaurant. The senior owner keeps a close vigil on the customers and the service. Don't go for idling time, as there is always a queue waiting to take the table , particularly during lunch time. One of the very few traditional Parsee joints of old... More

The Parsis maybe a shrinking community but they are still big on the "Eat, Drink and be Merry" motto of life. As is evident at the near 100 year old Britannia and Co. heritage restaurant, more commonly known as Britannia Cafe among locals. The owner who is a descendant of a proud legacy of Parsis, is a 93 old parsi... More

Britania cafe is one of the heritage sites of Mumbai. Have been a frequent visitor ever since my childhood. The food they serve there is awesome.
