A taste of South Asia is now on the menu for motorway travellers.

Indian street food brand Chaiiwala has opened a new restaurant in partnership with Roadchef at Sutton Scotney Northbound Services on the A34 in Hampshire.

The outlet will be open daily from 8am to 9pm and offers a selection of South Asian street food and drinks.

Sohail Ali, co-founder of Chaiiwala, said: "We're delighted to be building on our partnership with Roadchef by opening at Sutton Scotney Northbound and introducing even more motorway travellers to Chaiiwala.

"Motorway travellers are increasingly looking for more choice and variety when they stop, and our menu offers a fresh alternative to the traditional roadside options."

This is the second Chaiiwala location on a UK motorway following its debut at Watford Gap Services in 2025.

The menu includes Karak Chaii, Pink Chaii, Desi Breakfast, Bombay Twister, loaded naan, rice boxes, and sweet options like the Lotus Biscoff Cheesecake.

Roadchef said the opening is part of its ongoing £300 million investment programme to enhance motorway service areas with new food and drink concepts.

Dan Sutton, brands director at Roadchef, said: "We're committed to giving our customers more choice every time they stop with us, and Chaiiwala is a fantastic addition to Sutton Scotney Northbound."

The opening supports Roadchef's wider £300 million investment programme, which is enhancing its motorway service areas through new food and drink concepts, improved facilities and a more diverse offer for customers travelling across the UK.
