Menu
Hyderabadi Dum Biryani
Cafe Bahar's legendary Hyderabadi Dum Biryani is the reason most people visit. Slow-cooked to perfection with aromatic basmati rice and a secret spice blend, the chicken and mutton biryanis have earned a massive cult following among Hyderabadis over five decades.
Hyderabadi Haleem
Cafe Bahar's Haleem is a Hyderabad institution — slow-cooked mutton blended with wheat and spices into a rich, creamy stew. An absolute must-try, especially during Ramadan season, and one of the most authentic versions you'll find in the city.
Tandoori & Kebab Starters
Cafe Bahar's tandoori starters are crowd favourites — from the smoky, tender Murgh Tangdi Kebab and Chicken Tikka to the crispy Fish Tikka and juicy Seekh Kebab. All cooked fresh in a tandoor oven and served with mint chutney and onion rings.
Hyderabadi Curries & Gravies
Enjoy a rich spread of Hyderabadi and North Indian curries at Cafe Bahar. From authentic Mutton Curry and Chicken Gravy made with Nizami recipes to Paneer Butter Masala and Mirchi Ka Salan — all cooked in rich, flavourful gravies best paired with fresh naans and rotis.
Breads & Rice
Complete your meal at Cafe Bahar with freshly made tandoori breads and rice. Choose from buttery Naans, paper-thin Rumali Rotis, crispy Parathas, or simple steamed and Jeera rice — all made fresh and perfect accompaniments to the rich Hyderabadi gravies.
