Curry Paradise’s aim is to provide simply the best in Indian food, using the finest Indian ingredients, freshly prepared daily. It’s a simple goal that makes it hard to pinpoint exactly what makes this spot a local favourite and what their specials are.

The food is super delicious and they offer 40 different curry options to eat. Last but certainly not the least, everything is all reasonable priced! Which is a blessing to anyone who is craving Indian food.

Great for: Solo, Takeaway, Pub-Crawlers

📍87, 89 Brixton Hill, London SW2 1AA, United Kingdom

The Great Indian Kitchen

What makes The Great Indian Kitchen so great is that they offer the taste of India all the way to midnight! For pub-crawlers such as myself, having a place that cooks good food and are still open late at night is an absolute godsent. Though, I still prefer dining in at their tables as their walls are painted with intricate artwork for you to enjoy while eating.

The menu at The Great Indian Kitchen offers a variety of Indian dishes, including curries, biryani, and tandoori dishes, as well as sides and desserts.  What I recommend are the standout dishes, the chicken tikka masala and the lamb rogan josh.

Great for: Close Friends, Groups of Friends

📍21 Tulse Hill, London SW2 2TH, United Kingdom

Kricket Brixton

Kricket is most famous for being a cozy and modern bar but their Indian food is just absolutely divine. We tried the £20 early bird meals and our hungry faces absolutely lit up with the smell of their rich bhel puri, seriously though I could finish 3 bowls of those things.

We had more than enough food to go around and even when they’re super busy serving beers to their customers, it’s great that their staff are still being super attentive. I’d also like to add that their the Keralan fried chicken and the butter garlic crab are also super tasty.

Great for: Close Friends, Couples

📍41-45 Atlantic Rd, London SW9 8JL, United Kingdom

Khan’s of Brixton

It’s traditional homemade Indian cuisine served under a homey vibe. The owner himself even occasionally comes up to ask how the food is. All the side dishes are stellar as well so one tip from me is to pay an extra pound to get those side dishes as mains.

It’s also cool to know that their ingredients are fresh from the market so you could expect amazing paratha that rivals even other high-end Indian restaurants in London!

Great for: Close Friends, Couples, Catching up with Friends

This place is just the best for groups, and I don’t think I’ve ever had a wholesome experience that tops what I had in this spot. We went as a large group and bonded with the other large seated behind us, all because Bebs has something that makes it so popular for people, and that is their karaoke.

I mean, of course, their food is just absolutely amazing, and their also super attentive and reasurring to people with any allergies or to vegetarians. But it is the experience you have bonding with strangers and the super accommodating hosts, who welcome any feedback with open arms, are what makes Bebs Kitchen so special. The only place I do not recommend takeaway or home delivery for first-timers.

Great for: Groups of Friends

📍126 Acre Ln, London SW2 5RJ, United Kingdom

Bombay Kitchen

You could probably taste the love they pour into the dishes they serve here. It’s not a particular Indian food with a twist but it’s Indian cuisine served in a vibe that makes it feel like home.

The lamb curry was just downright amazing and the Prawn Puri is fresh and so aromatic!As a bonus though for people who enjoy takeaways, rest assured, their food will be on time, fresh and with generous portions!

Great for: Groups of Friends, Takeaway, Solo

📍48 New Park Rd, Brixton Hill, London SW2 4UN, United Kingdom
