We ordered Alu paratha & paneer parantha combo with ginger chai, parathas & chai both were very tasty. But quantity of raita with paratha was not enough also had to order pickle & butter on side. I also ask for warm water which they refuse to warm for us & instead offer me water bottle which was obviously not warm at all.

I visited Chai paratha on a Montreal trip last month. This place was a must try on my to do list & I must say, it didn't disappoint! I loved the beautiful, cultural interiors & the food was finger licking good. As others mentioned in their reviews, we felt at home there as the owners who are a sweet couple chatted with us & gave us recommendations from the menu. The chai was amazing, the aloo parathas was flavirful & soft & the best part is, everything was so reasonable. I recommend this place to anyone visiting Montreal & who would wanted to have an authentic & delicious brunch!

I just had one of the best cups of masala chai I've ever had here. Tastes like they use real quality spices. My kid had the mango lassi, also excellent. The service was great too you can tell they appreciated us being there. I can't wait to go back & try the food.

The most authentic Pakistani breakfast I've had in North America! Very cute little shop & reminded me of Pakistan very much. 10/10 must visit. Chana masala is a must try
