Our Crab Kari Omelette, that has quickly become a favourite at Hoppers Shoreditch, pairs a comforting, fluffy omelette with crunchy podi-coated soft shell crab, a flaky thread parotta, and a generous pour of savoury crab gravy. It will transport you straight to the bustling mess halls of Madurai that inspired this dish.
If you haven’t tried it yet, our Crab Kari Omelette is exclusively served at Hoppers Shoreditch.

Every strike has a silver lining...
During this week’s tube strikes (Tuesday –Thursday), anyone dining on the Hoppers Experience Menu gets a complimentary Mango Spritz, our spring special on us. It’s our little way of turning a frustrating commute into a reason to sit down, slow down, and eat well.
The Hoppers Experience is a proper feast of everything we do best. Short eats for the table, your choice of kari, then hoppers, dosas and sides for tearing, dipping and scooping. A little bit of everything, for everyone to share at £36 per person.
We’ve also got Ceylonese Iced Tea, Passionfruit Soda and House Ginger Beer as non-alc alternatives.
And because good hospitality goes further than our four walls, £1 from every Mango Spritz will still go to Feeding the Future, our charity initiative, providing food and support to children in need in Sri Lanka.
Available across Soho, Marylebone, King’s Cross & Shoreditch, Tue 20 -Thu 22 May.
Book via the link in bio.

In Kerala, banana chips are the local go-to snack, loved and eaten just as much as a bag of crisps. Thinly sliced raw banana, fried in coconut oil until golden and crisp, then sprinkled with salt for a perfectly savoury crunch.
A familiar sight in Kerala is street vendors slicing through huge bunches of green bananas straight into giant woks of bubbling coconut oil, frying fresh batches through the day for people to snack on warm.
At Hoppers, we fry our banana chips fresh daily and serve them as a savoury snack to share over drinks. Best enjoyed with a cold Toddy Ale or one of our signature cocktails.

Our Lankan Chicken Kari finds its way onto all sorts of plates. Scooped up with dosa, torn into with a hopper, dipped into with roti, or ladled over string hoppers.
Everyone seems to have their favourite way.
With the Bank Holiday weekend around the corner, come by Hoppers if you’re craving some comforting kari, however you like to enjoy it.

Our Mango + Coconut Trifle is back.
Juicy Indian Alphonso mangoes layered on soft jaggery cake, silky coconut custard, and a golden semolina toffee crumble to finish.
It’s one of those desserts that quietly disappears faster than it should.

Snapshots of spring at Hoppers.
As the days get longer and our terraces at Marylebone and King’s Cross are in full swing, we are loving the familar buzz that arrives with the sun. Crispy hoppers fresh off the pan, cocktails carefully poured and our shorteats and karis making their way to the table.
It’s the season for long lunches, easy evenings and a few extra rounds with friends.

Kerala has a way of cooking fish that we fell in love with during our travels down the southern coast of India. It’s simple, honest, and full of flavour.
Our Kerala Sizzling Fish Kari is a salmon fillet wrapped in banana leaf, arriving at your table with a fragrant sizzle, and a creamy Kerala curry. Mild, comforting, and perfect for dipping a hopper or a dosa.
Exclusive to Hoppers Shoreditch. Book your table now.

Last week we celebrated Vishu, the Malayali New Year with our Hoppers family. Chef Renjith and the team prepared a traditional Sadya, an unforgettable vegetarian banquet served on a banana leaf.
Sitting side by side, being served by each other and laughing together was a powerful reminder of what makes us who we are. Love, kindness and a shared passion for great food.
We will be hosting a similar meal for guests this summer. Who wants to come along?

Spring Special: Mango Spritz
Inspired by the arrival of mango season, our Mango Spritz brings together Cocchi Americano with ripe mango, jasmine honey and a bright lift of yuzu, finished with prosecco. Floral, citrusy and gently fruity, it’s an easy aperitif for sunnier, longer days.
Now pouring at all our Hoppers restaurants.

Spring Special: Prawn Kari Dosa
Our prawn kari dosa is an ode to the street side kades of Madurai. We pour a rich Tamil prawn curry over bubbling dosa batter as it cooks on the tawa creating a dish that’s the best of both worlds, a dosa and a curry.
Come try this at Hoppers Soho, Marylebone and King’s Cross from 13 April for a limited time.

A few of our favourite moments from our 10th birthday staff party earlier this year. A chance to pause and celebrate the people behind Hoppers.
Ten years of Hoppers couldn’t have been possible without an incredible team who bring heart, warmth and enthusiasm every day. From the energy in our dining rooms to the soul in our kitchens, they are the reason we are proud to celebrate this milestone together.
A huge thank you to everyone, past and present, for being part of the Hoppers family. Here’s to the memories.

We’re very grateful to see Hoppers Shoreditch featured in today.
Shoreditch has always been a place that evolves, and opening here gave us the chance to do the same, exploring new influences from south India, towards flavours of Chettinad, Madurai and Bangalore, while keeping some of our favourite dishes close.
A big thank you to for the generous review. We’ve put a lot of care into the stories, flavours and small details at our Shoreditch home, so it means a lot to us to see them recognised.

Few things bring back late nights in Colombo quite like a kothu. It’s to Sri Lanka what the kebab is to London.
The clatter of metal on metal. The sizzle of the hotplate. Chopped roti tossed with curry, eggs, spices, and meat or vegetables.
You’ll find lamb and vegetable kothu on our menus at Hoppers Soho, Marylebone and King’s Cross.
Swipe to see how it’s made 👉🏻

While Eid is a time of celebration it is also a time of giving, and in that spirit we would love for you to come in and break bread with us and at the same time consider contributing to Feeding the Future, our charity initiative in Sri Lanka.
Feeding the Future began in 2022 and is one of our proudest achievements at Hoppers. We began with one simple hope: to ensure every child has access to vital nutrition and education.
With your help, we’ve raised £400,000+, supported 1,250 families each month, and helped build three pre-schools for 148 children. We have big plans to do a lot more.
