Indian Ocean

Over in Hythe, Indian Ocean has quietly built a loyal following for its thoughtful Indian cooking, racking up consistently positive feedback from local diners. Cleanliness is clearly front of mind here too, with a solid Food Hygiene Rating that reassures anyone ordering in. It's the kind of place where the kitchen takes its time with the classics, making sure each dish lands with the right balance of spice, depth, and aroma.

Their menu leans into familiar favourites like chicken tikka masala and lamb bhuna, but the real star is the biryani—fluffy, fragrant rice layered with tender meat and a gentle heat that builds rather than overwhelms. Everything arrives well-packed and piping hot, ready to be torn into straight from the bag. Whether you're after a midweek curry fix or something to share, Indian Ocean delivers the goods across the Hythe area without fuss.
