What we serve

The Lunch Menu — Sharing Plates Worth the Trip

Amsterdam has no shortage of lunch spots. But if you're after lunch restaurant in De Pijp that goes beyond grain bowls and smashed avocado — Miri Mary is the answer. We cook Indian. And we cook it properly.

The format is sharing plates. Dishes arrive as they're ready, the table fills up, and the conversation does the rest. It's the way lunch should work.

Butter Chicken BennyMust Order

Toasted brioche, spiced chicken tikka, pickled onions, poached egg, makhani sauce poured over the top. People come back specifically for this. Order it first.

Chole KulchaVV

Slow-cooked spiced chickpeas and soft, slightly charred kulcha bread. Our vegetarian centrepiece — deeply savoury and genuinely filling.

Goan Ros Omelette

A folded omelette with Goan coconut ros curry sauce. Smoky, coastal, warming — completely different register from anything else on the table.

Lunch ThaaliFirst Visit

A curated spread of multiple dishes on one platter. First time at Miri Mary? This is how you start — taste the full range of the kitchen in single sitting.

Saag KuclaVV GF

Creamy spiced greens with kucla bread. Earthy, rich, completely plant-based. One of the most satisfying things on the menu for anyone not eating meat.

Tip: The full lunch menu rotates seasonally. Check the website before you visit for current specials.
