Mylahore

What Mylahore does

MyLahore is a family-owned British-Asian restaurant chain operating five full-service dine-in locations across northern England and the Midlands: Bradford (original 2002 site, which also houses a dedicated Bradford Delivery service), Leeds (opened 2015), Manchester on the Rusholme Curry Mile (opened 2016), Birmingham (opened 2020) and Blackburn (newest, opened 2024). The company serves halal Pakistani and North Indian cuisine — flame-grilled meats using a proprietary 24-hour marinade recipe, traditional karahi dishes cooked to order, and dum biryanis — with all meat and poultry sourced fresh (never frozen) from British and Irish farms. Beyond dine-in, MyLahore operates collection/takeaway at all sites and has outsourced all online delivery to an exclusive Uber Eats partnership, with telephone delivery available in Bradford, Leeds and Manchester within a 3-mile radius.

The business operates three sister revenue streams beyond the restaurants: Ranges by MyLahore (a consumer packaged-goods arm selling ready-to-grill items, tray bakes, celebration cakes and desserts via ranges.mylahore.co.uk), By MyLahore (a separate events-catering company for weddings, corporate functions and birthday parties via bymylahore.co.uk), and a gift card programme. Customer engagement is driven through an iOS/Android mobile app hosting the MyLahore Rewards loyalty scheme (10% credit back, £1 per £10 spent), an active content marketing blog, and a presence on Instagram, Facebook and TikTok. Target segments are multi-generational Muslim families, the broader British-Asian community seeking authentic Pakistani cuisine, young adult diners, families with children, and corporate/event hosts.

MyLahore is a privately held, family-run company that does not franchise and has not raised disclosed external funding. Its stated competitive position rests on 100% halal certification, traditional Punjabi/Lahori cooking techniques, family-friendly facilities (prayer rooms, disabled access, baby changing, kids' meals), and a community-rooted brand heritage tied to the founders' 1964 arrival in the UK. No financial metrics, headcount, or legal entity details beyond the trading name are publicly disclosed in available sources.
