Dishoom is a British chain of Indian restaurants. It was founded in 2010 by co-founders Shamil and Kavi Thakrar, along with Amar and Adarsh Radia, who both left the business in 2017. It was designed to match the Irani cafés popular in Bombay in the 1960s.
Described by some as Indian street food, the restaurant describes its offering as Bombay comfort food with an evolving menu. The menu includes breakfast naan breads.
The first Dishoom restaurant opened in 2010 in Covent Garden, London. In 2023, the brand opened its first spin-off concept, Permit Room. As of July 2025, the company operates 11 Dishoom restaurants across the UK and four Permit Room bars in Oxford, Cambridge, Brighton and Notting Hill.
