Cinnamon Tree

Locals in Stoke-on-Trent have long made Cinnamon Tree their first port of call for tandoori cooking that brings real fire and finesse to the table. This is a kitchen that understands the smoky depth of a proper clay-oven grill, turning out dishes that are as bold in flavour as they are generous in portion. It’s the kind of place where the spices hit with intention, not just heat — a sign of a chef who knows their masalas.

The menu leans heavily into the classics, with biryanis that arrive fragrant and fluffy, and curries that range from rich, slow-cooked rogan josh to silky, tomato-based butter chicken. The tandoori specialities are the real draw here: think charred, marinated chicken tikka, seekh kebabs with a satisfying snap, and sizzling platters that make for a proper feast. Whether you’re ordering for delivery or popping in for a collection, Cinnamon Tree delivers that consistent, comforting quality that keeps a neighbourhood coming back.
