Our Journey
Karwan began in 2016 in Southall, London, founded by Dost Mohammad with a vision to share the authentic tastes of Afghan cuisine. Starting from humble beginnings, Dost Mohammad’s passion and dedication to bringing Afghan flavours to a wider audience laid the foundation for Karwan’s growth. Each branch we’ve opened has carried forward this mission, introducing the best of Afghan cuisine and hospitality to new communities. Karwan has since earned a reputation as a go-to destination for Afghan dining across the UK.
