Just a stone’s throw from the Odeon cinema in Bradford’s outskirts, lies a true gem for Indian food lovers. Bradford is famed for its curry and The Raj is no exception. The independent eatery prides itself on its traditional dishes, generous portions and excellent value for money. It’s no wonder it’s a favourite place for casual dining with friends and family.
The Raj is perfect for laidback dining before a film. The humble eatery will make everyone feel right at home with friendly staff that know the menu inside and out. They’re also happy to recommend dishes to guests visiting for the first time and can advise them on heat levels as their dishes are known to be on the spicier side.
While The Raj caters to diehard classic curry house fans with their creamy Kashmiri-style kormas and fiery vindaloos, diners won’t want to miss their house specialities. In fact, they’re known for serving dishes that aren’t typically on Indian menus such as the gosht dall, featuring tender lamb and lentils and the fruity dil razz, which includes chicken, lamb mince, pineapple and a special spice blend.
For fuss-free Indian cuisine in a casual atmosphere, The Raj won’t disappoint. Any occasion will surely be even more of a treat for Gourmet Society members who can look forward to savings off their bills when they call to book ahead and present their membership cards. It’s the perfect excuse for a mixed grill starter platter to share, extra paratha or rice.
