Madha - North & South Indian Kitchen

You'll find yourself on Albion Street in the city centre, walking into a place that doesn't bother with unnecessary frills but gets the food absolutely right. The kitchen knows the difference between a Kerala curry and a Delhi one, and they're not about to pretend otherwise. Service moves with genuine warmth rather than performing hospitality, and the dining room feels lived-in—the kind of place where regulars nod at each other over plates of dosa. Whether you're after aromatic biryanis from the south or richly spiced curries from the north, the cooking is honest and confident. At around £10-15 for mains, you're getting proper restaurant food at reasonable money.
