1. The Brook & Pines Wood-Fired Pizza
Nothing beats the satisfying crackle of a thin, crispy pizza crust, fresh out of our wood-fired oven. Our pizzas are a crowd favorite, made with hand-stretched dough, homemade sauce, and a generous topping of fresh ingredients.
Top Picks:

Each pizza is baked to perfection and pairs brilliantly with our house brews—especially a crisp lager or amber ale.
2. Beer-Battered Fish & Chips
This British pub classic gets a Brook & Pines makeover. Fresh fish is coated in our special beer batter—light, crisp, and golden brown—and served with a side of thick-cut fries and tangy tartar sauce. The subtle notes of our craft beer in the batter bring out a flavor that’s rich, satisfying, and unforgettable.
Perfect with: Our in-house wheat beer or citrusy IPA.
3. Signature Chicken Tikka Platter

It’s bold, smoky, and bursting with flavor—ideal for sharing over drinks with friends.
4. Brook’s Special Momos (Steamed & Fried)
Hailing from the Himalayan region, momos are a staple in any mountain-town menu—but at Brook & Pines, we’ve elevated them to a whole new level. Choose from steamed or fried versions, stuffed with your choice of chicken, pork, or veggies, and served with our spicy house-made chilli dip.
They’re bite-sized, addictive, and the perfect starter for your meal—or snack to go with a cold beer.
5. Butter Chicken & Naan Combo
A timeless classic, our Butter Chicken is rich, creamy, and full of bold, comforting flavors. Served with warm, fluffy naan or jeera rice, it’s one of our best-selling dishes for good reason.
Our version stays true to its North Indian roots, with a deep, velvety gravy and perfectly cooked chunks of chicken that melt in your mouth.
Pair with: A cold pilsner or a mild ale to balance the spice and creaminess.

A tribute to the pine-filled landscapes of Kasauli, this unique appetizer features tender local pine needles coated in a delicate tempura batter and fried till crispy. Served with a tangy dipping sauce, this dish is a conversation starter—and a must-try for anyone looking for something out of the ordinary.
Light, crispy, and beautifully aromatic, it’s a nod to the mountains that surround us.
