The Great Indian, London: ‘A thoroughly delightful food pub’ – restaurant review An old north London boozer has found new life as an Indian restaurant, and redefined ‘gastropub’ along the way.
At the top of the menu at the Great Indian, a new and thoroughly delightful food pub in London’s Archway, there’s a set of slogans of a sort guaranteed to make my teeth itchy.
The Great Indian is owned by Aman Dhir who already has a takeaway of the same name in Hackney where they serve chicken tikka, seekh kebabs, aloo gobi and the rest.
He has been spending time in Archway, alongside his Indian cooks and the Indian front of house team.
The executive chef here is Surjan Singh, an experienced restaurant consultant from India known there as Chef Jolly and familiar as a judge on MasterChef India.
