About Bundobust

It all started with a tweet...

Bundobust was born out of a collaboration between two Bradford boys, Mayur Patel and Marko Husak – the chef with generations of Indian food heritage, and the pioneering craft beer bar owner.

Beer and a curry?

Combining their expertise through a series of pop-up events, Mayur and Marko spotted a demand for a contemporary update to the classic “beer and a curry”: authentic dishes, boundary-pushing beers, flavours and techniques overlooked in mass-market Indian food and brewing, all served in an informal bar setting.

 

Bundo begins

After a series of pop ups the first Bundobust opened in Leeds in 2014, with Bundobust Manchester Piccadilly following in 2016, Bundobust Liverpool in 2019, and Bundobust Brewery opening it’s doors in 2021.

Too Much Spicy

Critically acclaimed and widely regarded as a game changing enterprise within the independent food and drink industry, Bundobust has forged itself as a beacon of successful casual dining in the North; winning ‘Best Innovation’ at The Casual Dining Awards in 2024, and featured on Rick Stein’s Food Stories.
