I had breakfast at this restaurant on Sunday, and it was an excellent experience! Everything was fresh, delicious, and perfectly prepared. The presentation and service were both outstanding, and the staff was professional and friendly. If you’re looking for great taste and quality in one place, this restaurant is definitely worth trying — highly recommended!

7/10 a solid “good” breakfast, with Chana as the standout item.

Food was so nice and fresh. I went there with my friend for the firat time and our experience was just great. We order a lot of food but still it all was so economical. We tried Chana, paye, nan, pratha, omelette and their achar is real desi style feels like home made. Will visit soon.

We travel from ireland to Birmingham for just food and found out about chak 69 for breakfast i never try in my life this kind of halwa puri best 10/10 and guy there hamza serve us with smile and good greetings we will be back soon whenever craving for good food specially breakfast

Breakfast was absolutely amazing! Perfectly balanced flavours, beautifully presented, and cooked to perfection. It’s a must-try for anyone visiting Chak 69.

I recently visited CHAK 69 and had an amazing experience! The breakfast was absolutely delicious — I especially loved the chana and paratha, which were full of flavour and cooked to perfection. The portion size was generous, and everything tasted fresh and authentic. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the staff were friendly and attentive. It’s clear they put a lot of care into both their food and service. I’ll definitely be coming back again soon. Highly recommend CHAK 69 for anyone looking for a proper, tasty desi breakfast!

If you want to experience authentic Lahori cuisine, then look no further, Chak 69 is the place to go. None of the frozen stuff which has become an unfortunate feature of breakfast places noawadays. We ordered the Desi breakfast. Homemade, flaky parathas hot off the press served with omelette, puris, chanay, halwa and desi chai. The Keema Paratha was top notch. The chanay had a depth of flavour that we've never tasted before. Fantastic customer service and reasonable prices. We had a conversation with the lovely owner who was down to earth, and all the staff ensured we were taken care of. We returned for dessert. Outstanding Kheer, delectable falooda and the Oreo milkshake was smooth. Look forward to returning when we're back in Birmingham. A must try for all you foodies out there!

If youre looking for a taste from back home especially for the pure lahori feel, chal 69 gets it. Where it lacks in ambience and a little slow staff, it makes up for in taste and quality food. The staff were generally polite but I feel it could have been better if things like plates and forks be provided without having to ask for it.
