Tap & Tandoor Peterborough

What a great Indian restaurant to have in the town centre. A mix of traditional and creative dishes make a difficult choice but the quality of everything tried was sensational. Portion sizes are generous and the price is more than fair for what is given. Have recommended to friends already and will continue to do so. My new go to Indian restaurant in Peterborough.

Group of four of us visited a weekday lunchtime so it was very quiet, we were one of two lots of customers which worked out really well as it was almost private dining. Have never visited before but I’d heard good things and I was exited to try the menu. We ordered four starters (small plates) a sharing platter and two main dishes. The food was really yummy. I’d say try the naan sliders and paneer for starters. We had a mixed grill to share with a side of pilau and a naan. I really enjoyed all it. Can’t wait to go back sometime.

Tap & Tandoor is an Indian establishment in the city centre of Peterborough, next to Cathedral Square. It's divided into two parts: The proper restaurant with its front to Cathedral Square, and a beer bar & gastro pub on the side, which is the part that I frequented on several nights during my stay in the city. There's more than half a dozen kegged craft beers on offer, I tried several. But I mostly drank Kona's Big Wave IPA. Not just because it's a decent beer, but because it develops an inordinate amount of foam when being poured. It was quite amusing watching the growing frustration of the bar staff trying to pour a pint (Sorry!), which took several minutes every time. Prices are elevated (roundabout UKP 6.50), and seating on the rough hewn wood benches outside was quite all right. Plus, unlike other pubs in the city, Tap & Tandoor is open until late even on weeknights.
