About Momo Shop
Momo Shop is Chorlton's go-to for authentic Nepalese cuisine, anchored by momos that reviewers describe as "delicious," "phenomenal," and "a burst of fresh and vibrant flavours." The kitchen excels across the menu—pan-fried and steamed dumplings, keema noodles, and sizzling dishes all earn consistent praise for bold, well-balanced flavours and generous portions at £10–20. The casual, cozy interior features quirky Nepalese touches (om signs, Buddha faces, pop-punk playlists) that create a warm, inviting atmosphere without pretension. Staff are noted as kind, welcoming, and attentive. The venue caters to diverse diets with strong vegetarian and vegan options, serves beer, wine, and cocktails, and welcomes dogs inside and out.
