Chaiiwala opens second drive-thru

With 100 seats, it is also the largest restaurant in its portfolio.

Indian food cafe brand Chaiiwala announced the opening of its second drive-thru at a site of a former KFC and Costa just outside Blackburn in Mellorbrook.

Chaiiwala, together with petrol forecourt and convenience retailer EG on the Move, invested  £500,000 for this new drive-thru location.

Last month EG on the Move also opened the country’s first Chaiiwala eatery dedicated to serving British Asian cuisine at London Luton Airport (LLA). Plans are already in place to open similar concessions across similar air and land transportation hubs.

EG On The Move plans to open three more Chaiiwala drive-thrus, the group said.

The new 2,000 sq ft restaurant has created 25 full time jobs for the local community with customers able to order via self-ordering kiosks, at the counter, online or at the Drive-Thru with Smart Digital Drive Thru menu boards.
