Christmas party season starts here, on Ifield Drive.

We've put together two Christmas party menus this year, each with Standard, Vegetarian and Vegan options, from £40 per person with VAT included. The dining room will be dressed for the season, the bar is open, and private dining keeps your group together however big the table.

A discretionary 10% service charge is added to the bill, and that's the only sum you'll need to add on.

Book your Christmas party at zarirestaurant.co.uk

Behind the scenes at Zari, the tandoor is where much of the magic happens. Our chefs bring five-star experience to Tandoor dishes and regional Indian cuisine, and our team is run with a personal touch by Almara, Sadique and head chef Patrick.

With dinner served every evening from 5pm until 11pm, there’s plenty of time to linger. Whether you’re local to Crawley or travelling in from further afield, we’d love to welcome you.

You can reserve your table through our website or give us a call on 01293 525107.

Halloween falls on a Saturday this year, which means a whole evening to play with once the sweets have been handed out and the doorbell has finally gone quiet.

Leave the plastic fangs at home and come down to Ifield Drive. The dining room's warm, the bar's open, and Almara, Sadique and head chef Patrick will take it from there.

Halloween's a week tomorrow, and if you're after a scare before then, start with the spice.

Friday night at Zari, and someone at the table will order the hottest thing going just to prove a point. We've seen it many times. The brave ones get a plate with real fire in it; everyone else gets cooking that's warm, fragrant and every bit as good.

Pick your side, then bring them both.

As the evenings draw in and Halloween approaches, there is something in the air at Zari.

Our team on Ifield Drive are preparing for an evening to remember. Almara and Sadique Miah and head chef Patrick bring 65 years of combined experience, and guests travel from Gatwick, Brighton and across the southeast to join us. Curious about the secrets behind the kitchen? Ask us about our cookery masterclass.

We are open seven days a week, with lunch from 10am and evenings from 5pm. Reserve your table at zarirestaurant.co.uk or call 01293 525107.

The nights are drawing in, the lights are going up soon, and the festive diary is about to fill up. 🎄

Get a head start at Zari, our award-winning restaurant on Ifield Drive. Almara and Sadique, head chef Patrick and the team are here to make it a Christmas catch-up to remember, whether it's friends, family or a bigger group celebrating together in our private dining space.

Tag who you'd bring, then book online or call us on 01293 525107. Our gift vouchers are available too, for anyone who's hard to buy for.

Halloween's not here yet — but the kitchen's already thinking about the ending.

A great dessert is the part of the meal that earns its keep. At Zari, it gets the same attention as everything that came before it: the balance, the finish, the moment that makes you sit back and feel like the evening was properly spent.

If you're planning something a little atmospheric before the month is out, this is your nudge.

Halloween's still days off, but the evenings haven't waited. It's dark by six, there's a bite in the air, and the walk home feels longer than it did a month ago.

That's exactly when spice earns its place. Regional Indian cooking, layered and warming, the sort of heat that builds slowly rather than shouting at you.

Bring someone who's been complaining about the cold all week.

Friday — and if the week has earned anything, it's earned a proper dessert.

At Zari, the end of the meal gets the same care and attention as everything that came before it. The kitchen takes it seriously, and so do we. It's the kind of finish that makes a Friday evening feel like it was properly spent.

If you haven't booked yet, there's still a table with your name on it this evening.
