Chennai

Locals in Cheltenham have a quiet gem in Chennai, an Indian curry takeaway that holds a stellar 4.6/5 from 133 reviews. This place isn't about flashy gimmicks; it's about serious, soulful cooking that's earned a loyal following. The kitchen team clearly understands that great curry starts with patience—slow-cooked sauces, freshly ground spices, and a respect for tradition that shines through in every dish.

The menu is a love letter to South Indian and classic curry house favourites. Their lamb rogan josh is a standout, with tender meat swimming in a rich, aromatic gravy that's neither too heavy nor too mild. The chicken tikka masala here is a creamy, tangy delight, perfectly balanced. For something different, the prawn curry brings a coastal freshness to the table. Whether you're feeding a family or just treating yourself, Chennai delivers the kind of satisfying, deeply flavoured food that makes ordering in feel like a proper occasion. They deliver across Cheltenham, so get that order in.
