As the home of the Curry Mile, Manchester has long been known for its wide choice of Indian and South Asian restaurants. While the not-quite-a-mile strip of restaurants on Rusholme’s Wilmslow Road now tends towards more Middle Eastern cuisine, there are still plenty of gems to be found there like Mughli and Sanam - the oldest on the whole stretch.
And there are plenty more great places to eat Indian, Pakistani, Bangladeshi and Nepalese food elsewhere in the city and surrounding boroughs of Greater Manchester. Choice in the city centre has never been better, with incomers like Dishoom and Bundobust joining homegrown favourites like Indian Tiffin Room and This n' That.
And the rest of the region has plenty to shout about too, with award-winning foodie favourites like Lily's in Ashton-under-Lyne and long-established names like Great Kathmandu and Original Third Eye in Didsbury.
Whether you’re looking for a traditional curry house, an upscale city centre restaurant or somewhere to grab a quick rice and three lunch, here’s our pick of some of the best Greater Manchester has to offer, in no particular order. Have we missed your favourite? Let us know in the comments.
From humble beginnings as a tiny cafe in Cheadle, Indian Tiffin Room is now a small (but still independent) chain with branches in Manchester city centre and Leeds. The reasonably priced menu mainly comprises south Indian street snacks such as dosas and chaats, but you’ll also find a small selection of curries and dishes typically served at dhabas (roadside restaurants).
There are also some inventive Indian-inspired cocktails such as the Icy Spicy Chatpata, a potent mix of tequila and pineapple with a jolt of green chilli.
