Cafe India

Cafe India is one of Glasgow’s oldest Indian restaurants and is situated in the heart of Glasgow’s Merchant City. Set in this vibrant area of Glasgow, the restaurant offers a unique dining experience; constantly evolving menus, a carefully matched wine list and organic Scottish Craft Beer selection – all designed to reflect an ethos of innovation and creativity.

They challenge the notion that Indian haute cuisine can only be created using age old recipes and ideas, believing that Indian food should constantly evolve and adapt. Their ethos has been to revolutionise the way Indian cooking is viewed in the UK and to continue to push the boundaries. The team create dishes and menus combining Indian ingredients with local produce and Indian cooking techniques, with a European influence that produces a distinctive layering of flavours.

All their main ingredients are delivered straight from the market on a daily basis to ensure only the freshest, locally sourced ingredients reach your table. To make their dishes and sauces as low fat and healthy as possible, they do not use ‘Ghee’, which is high in fat and the chicken is steam cooked or grilled. This approach ensures you can enjoy all your favourite dishes but with a healthier twist and as they are prepared in their state of the art ‘theatre style’ kitchen – your experience begins with the sounds and smells of your food being prepared by the team of talented Chef’s.

Café India’s Executive Chef Bablu Roderick has worked in first class hotels and restaurants across India, Bahrain and the UK. Head Chef Rashid Ahmed has over 22 years experience including the position of personal chef to the Prime Minister of Pakistan.
