This comprehensive guide showcases the best Indian restaurants in Yorkshire, from traditional curry houses to modern interpretations of Indian cuisine. Explore hidden gems and renowned establishments, offering a diverse range of flavors and culinary experiences.
Curry has revolutionized our once-bland national cuisine, making a half-decent curry readily available throughout the UK. Yorkshire, particularly West Yorkshire with its significant South Asian population, stands out as a haven for curry lovers. The region boasts an impressive array of Indian, Pakistani, Bangladeshi, Sri Lankan, and Nepalese restaurants, offering everything from classic bhunas and madras to more unique and lesser-known dishes.
From the curry capitals of Leeds and Bradford to hidden gems across North to South and East to West, this guide presents a selection of Yorkshire's finest 'Indian' establishments. Exploring West Yorkshire, we find culinary treasures like the Sweet Centre Restaurant in Bradford, a renowned establishment serving authentic Kashmiri curries since 1964. The International, also in Bradford, specializes in Punjabi cuisine and karahis, offering a more adventurous selection beyond the usual korma to vindaloo spectrum. Heading to Leeds, Dastaan in the affluent suburb of Adel is widely considered the city's best Indian restaurant, featuring innovative five-course tasting menus and rare dishes, such as the intriguing pork cheek vindaloo. Bengal Brasserie in Burley, the winner of the Curry Life Awards 2023, is celebrated for its extensive range of fish, duck, and house-special curries. Another must-try is Destination in the hip village of Slaithwaite. While presentation might not be the first thing that comes to mind when thinking about curry, Destination sets a new standard with its smart, modern ambiance. Venturing into South Yorkshire, Urban Choola in Sheffield stands apart as a modern Indian restaurant that goes beyond the typical 'curry house' concept. Its menu emphasizes authentic curries inspired by various regions of India, with a focus on fresh ingredients and unique flavors. 400°C, also in Sheffield city center, caters to a wide range of palates, boasting a fantastic selection of vegetarian and vegan curries alongside traditional British-Indian meat dishes.For those seeking a taste of regional specialties, Mumbai Lounge in Darfield offers a refreshing array of dishes from different parts of India, including Afghan steak marinated in cream and yoghurt, and a Rajasthani jalfrezi served with eggs. The Indus in Conisbrough is a beloved establishment known for its 'apna' (home-style) menu and traditional British-Indian dishes, featuring a diverse selection of vegetarian options, Punjabi specials, and more.In North Yorkshire, Spice Culture in Harrogate offers a chic and contemporary take on Indian tapas, wine, and cocktails. Their menu features a wide variety of curries, both familiar and less explored, alongside plenty of vegetarian and vegan choices. Finally, Realitea in Harrogate provides a unique experience, combining the ambiance of an Indian tea house with delicious Indian lunches and cakes. The highlight is their fortnightly 'dhaba' evening, where guests can enjoy a three-course meal with poppadums, appetisers, a chicken or vegetarian main course, rice, and dessert, reminiscent of roadside cafes in India
