Monkey Temple

Monkey Temple at 92 Askew Road, Shepherd's Bush serves Nepalese and Himalayan food from the Askew Road in W12. The Monkey Temple — Pashupatinath and Swayambhunath, the ancient Hindu and Buddhist temples of Nepal teeming with sacred macaques — is one of the most iconic images of Nepal and its extraordinary religious and cultural heritage. Nepalese cuisine — momo dumplings, dal bhat, thukpa and Newari specialities — has grown in popularity across London as part of the broader South Asian food scene. Askew Road W12 9BL is close to Ravenscourt Park underground station on the District line.

Nepalese restaurants are relatively rare in West London, making Monkey Temple a distinctive and welcomed dining option on the Askew Road for the Shepherd's Bush community.
