Chilli Pickle

Chilli Pickle on Highbridge Street has established itself as the top-rated Indian option in Waltham Abbey, with a 4.3 rating from 813 customer reviews and a Sunday set-price special — starter, vegetable side, main course, naan or rice and tea or coffee — that is widely praised for value. The kitchen's own website lists Chicken Shaad and King Prawn Bhuna among its signature dishes. Reviewers describe the food as very fresh with good spicing, and the staff as friendly and efficient, though service can feel brisk at busy periods. Highbridge Street runs parallel to the River Lea on the historic Abbey side of Waltham Abbey, close to the Norman church that is reputedly the burial place of King Harold. An established and well-regarded local favourite.
