Gulshan

Gulshan is Broxbourne's most decorated Indian restaurant — a small, family-run dining room in The Precinct on the High Road where chef Shamim Ahmed was named Indian Chef of the Year in 2014. The menu steps beyond the standard Bangladeshi-British format: the award-winning Railway Lamb is the dish most cited by regulars, and Kashmiri Chicken with Lychees — a creamy, fruit-inflected preparation rarely seen locally — appears frequently in reviews alongside the paneer sashlik and dal samba. TripAdvisor reviewers have called it "simply the best Indian restaurant in Hertfordshire, possibly the country." The dining room is small and service is attentive; the kitchen also handles takeaway and offers free delivery. Over 20 years of family ownership and a single-site focus ensure quality stays consistent.
