Chapati Man

Chapati Man was created by a husband and wife team, Chris and Andrea in 2007. The idea came from Chris taking left-over curry in a wrap to work. Their love of music festivals inspired them to share with other party-goers, the authentic curry recipes Chris grew up with; still being made by Chris's mother Martha – and the Chapati Man brand was born!

The Chapati Man journey began in 2007 by selling Spicy Indian Wraps at major events and festivals in the UK – their colourful trailer unit is now a mainstay at festivals, such as Glastonbury, Bestival, Camp Bestival and the Lovebox Weekender. Chapati Man was voted. No.1 food caterer at Glastonbury Festival 2007 by Virtual Festivals– an outstanding achievement in their first year of trading. More recently, Chapati Man was in the top three 'essential eats' of Glastonbury 2017 - another huge achievement!

Chris and Andrea used to go to music festivals as punters for years and spotted a niche in the market. They realised times were changing and festival goers wanted something different, authentic and with more quality to it than burgers and chips – festival organisers knew this too so saw Chapati Man as a breath of fresh air. Their purpose-built trailer, emblazoned with their striking Indian elephant design has become a festival landmark and focal point to meet, eat and get back to the entertainment refreshed and satisfied.

Chapati Man’s chicken saag wrap, with fresh mint chutney and a cachumber salad won the National category at the British Sandwich Designer of the Year Finals 2011.

More recently (from February 2015), Chapati Man has brought their Spicy Indian Wraps to the City of Londons’ premier pitches of Broadgate Circle, Paddington Central, City Point, Chiswick Business Park and Here East (Olympic Park). Trading with StreetDots, Chapati Man have joined a line up of traders that serve lunch to the city workers across London, on a Monday to Friday basis.
