Indian Restaurants in Cheltenham (2026)
Cheltenham has 3 indian restaurants. Here is every verified option.
#1 Tandoori Zone — 300A Charman Road, Cheltenham
Indian
What makes it great: You do not end up at Tandoori Zone by accident. You end up there because someone told you to go. The tandoor here is not decorative. The naan arrives blistered and puffed, pulled seconds ago. That is the difference. The test of a restaurant is whether you think about it the next day. Tandoori Zone passes.
Hours: Mo-Fr 11:30-15:00,17:00-21:00; Sa 17:00-21:00

#1 Babalu’s
Indian
What makes it great: Babalu’s earns its crowd the honest way — through the food. The biryani is the benchmark dish. If a restaurant nails the biryani — the rice, the protein, the seal, the aromatic lift — it can cook anything. If this place were in Fitzroy, there would be a queue. In Cheltenham, you can still walk in.

#1 Krishna
Indian
What makes it great: You could walk past Krishna without noticing it. Regulars prefer it that way. Spice is not heat. Spice is complexity. This kitchen builds layers — each bite reveals something the last one hid. You will not Instagram it. You will remember it.
