It all began in Nairobi, Kenya, in 1935, where Bishan Das Anand started a catering business that would become a legacy. Proud to be a family-run institution, Madhu's has carried the heart of hospitality across continents and generations — arriving now at the very heart of Mayfair.
Today, Madhu's of Mayfair brings together the bold, aromatic traditions of Punjabi cuisine with the adventurous spirit of East Africa — refined for one of London's most storied neighbourhoods.
