Specialising in Indian street food and craft beer, Bundobust is preparing to expand further into Yorkshire.
Since Bundobust opened its first restaurants in Leeds back in 2014, the locally-renowned India street food and craft beer restaurant has slowly taken over the north, one bhaji box at a time.
Now, Bundobust is opening a second Yorkshire restaurant in the heart of York.
The former Argos building on Piccadilly in York’s city centre is their chosen base and although the owner’s haven’t officially announced their expansion online, an application for a new venue has been filed with the intention of opening as early as April 2022.
On the menu, we’re expecting all of our favourite dishes and far more. Inspired by its Gujarati roots, the Bundobust offering has always been 100% vegetarian, with around two thirds of the menu completely plant-based, the new York location is set to be no different,
Earlier this year, the restaurant’s first venture into meat substitutes saw a successful collaboration with Meatless Farm. Using plant-based chicken and meatless mince allowing the Bundo team to explore more traditionally meat-focused Indian dishes, the ‘Bundo Does Meat Combo’ was well-loved by Leeds, so much so that the company extended the collaboration for an additional month.

The venue is known for its stand-out meals, but their craft beer is also a huge selling point on the Indian-inspired menu.
At the new York restaurant, we’re expecting that restaurant-goers will have exclusive access to Bundobust Brewery beer, alongside other modern beer selections.
Brewed inside their personal brewery in Manchester, York daytrippers and locals will be able to tuck into pints or taster flight boards made from recycled plastic bottles.
Vegetarians and vegans across Yorkshire are likely to have been travelling all the way to our city for a sample, but the new York opening will allow the masses to review the critically acclaimed independent enterprise for themselves.
The application for 11-13 Piccadilly, the former Argos building, seeks permission to serve late night food until midnight, with requested opening times of 9am – 12.30am.
