Mowgli Street Food Edinburgh: location finally revealed for exciting new Indian restaurant

Fans of authentic Indian street food take note: Edinburgh Live can now reveal where the exciting new restaurant Mowgli will be based in Edinburgh.

In December, , and they have just announced that they've signed a lease on a fancy property on Hanover Street, just off Princes Street in the heart of Edinburgh city centre.

The eatery specialises in types of food Indians eat at home and in the streets, with plenty of healthy and vegan options.

Announcing the news on Twitter, owner Nisha Katona said:

"BIG NEWS- Mowgli Edinburgh is happening! Soo exciting- we are utterly thrilled to be making our home in Hanover Street just off Princes Street with an aim to open this winter."

The tweet was accompanied by a street view shot of 21 Hanover Street, which used to be a recruitment agency.

Appropriately, one of the dishes on the menu is the "Office Worker's Tiffin", which includes four tiers of meat and veg for £16 as well as the veggie-option "Indian School Tiffin" for £14.

You can expect some quirky decor as other Mowgli restaurants have featured benches suspended from ropes, fairy lights and indoor trees.

Mowgli was founded in Liverpool in 2014 and has since expanded to ten sites around the UK.

Nisha Katona's chain caused excitement among foodies in Leicester when it launched there earlier this year.

She says there will be new Mowgli branches in Bristol this month, followed by Leeds, Edinburgh and Glasgow in 2020.
