Hot Mug Cafe’s butter chicken is slow-simmered in a rich, creamy tomato gravy with tandoori-grilled chicken and a gentle blend of North Indian spices. Pair it with soft garlic naan and you’ll taste why locals call it the best butter chicken in West Edmonton. Dine in at our cozy Callingwood cafe, or order online for delivery and takeout across the west end.
Butter chicken (murgh makhani) is North India’s most famous comfort food, and it’s the dish our regulars order again and again. At Hot Mug Cafe we make it the homestyle way: chicken is marinated in yogurt and spices, grilled tandoori-style, then folded into a silky gravy of tomatoes, butter, cream and fenugreek. The result is creamy without being heavy, gently spiced, and full of that slow-cooked flavour reviewers describe as “just like home-cooked food.”
Every order is prepared fresh in our kitchen at 6719 177 St NW, and we’re happy to adjust the spice level on request — from mild and family-friendly to extra hot. Portions are generous, so one serving with rice or naan makes a satisfying meal for hungry appetites.
The classic pairing: tear off a piece of warm, buttery garlic naan and scoop up that creamy tomato gravy. Add a side of fragrant basmati rice, a cold mango lassi, or finish with warm chocolate almond torte for the full North Indian comfort-food experience at our Indian café in West Edmonton.
