Amazing food - Edit
Love this place! The curries here are super tasty and I loved their chicken wrap with salad. Very cheap too.

What A Gem - Edit
We discovered this place by chance a couple of years ago and were both made up that it's still going strong. Located a stones throw from The Arndale, Little Aladdin serves up a completely vegan selection of kebabs, wraps and curries, all at very reasonable prices. We went for a Seehk Kebab and a Beef Doner, with a small bowl of chips each and a coffee. 22 quid, and there was as much garlic mayo, chili dip etc as you wanted. Dunno if the "meat" is homemade or not, but it was delicious. The doner was quite spicy, full of salad and bursting with flavour, the Seehk was a little more relaxed, but equally tasty and 2 quid cheaper. Having tried several vegan kebab chains, this great little place gives them all a run for their money and requires less of yours. Going back tomorrow for the Korma and pashwari nan. Lush. Definitely should be in the top ten vegan places in town.

Tooo Good!!!! - Edit
Another return visit for a sit-in, which was fantastic, too good, so I had to get a take-away was well!!!

Quick, Tasty and Reasonability Priced - Edit
My second visit to Little Aladdin, my first since they have gone fully vegan, and I wasn’t disappointed. Though my first choice of curry wasn’t available, the chana masala that I did have was great, as were the bhajis and fritters that I had as sides. The vegan beef doner was also excellent, the only slight let down was the garlic naan, more a garlic bread, but it was satisfying nonetheless.

Great value - Edit
Stumbled in for dinner and was pleasantly surprised. Had the 3 curry and rice for £7.50, 2 bhajis and a plain naan.
Read moreService was great, super friendly and explained what was on offer.
Chanla masala, Bombay potato, vegetable curry. Good portion size for the price, could just do with a little more flavour.
Bhajis were great, though a small piece of uncooked batter wasn't very nice! Gave us some mango chutney as well which was lovely!
Naan was good size.

Great Value, Tasty Vegan Food - Edit
This place offers so many options. From curries, wraps, burgers and kebabs to vegan cheese naans, breaded mushrooms and salads and dips. Really nice, friendly staff. Several tables if you want to eat there. Compared to most vegan/vegetarian establishments (especially in Manchester), the value for money is also brilliant. Oh and the chips are great too.

This place is great for a quick, cheap eat in Manchester City Centre. The owner was friendly and welcoming, and ran through all the options with me. The onion bahjis are delicious, and gluten free! (Not to mention quite big, so one is enough).

Not totally vegan - Edit
Supposed to be totally vegan. We were offered dairy yogurt on our samosa chaat so sorry this joint is vegetarian.. Delightful vegan chaat, essentially samosas with a salad garnish, onion and spicy chickpea accompaniment.
Read moreSpicy, filling, as well as cheap.
Definitely will return.
No doubt. Thanks, owner. 🤣

Always support fully vegan - Edit
3 stars because the place is fully vegan and i love that, however the guy serving did not listen to our order, perhaps because he was busy but we asked for Biryani he said he could do some, it ended up being some dry rice with some tasteless potatoes and loads of onion and bits of veg not a Biryani, the next guy behind us asked for Biryani he said they had none so assuming he tried to get us some made up which was nice but the food was not. Had 3 curries and rice to be fair was good and the samosas very nice. Overall i would not rush back food pretty standard but i do love to support a fully vegan place so will return to give a second chance

Excellent vegan curries, would strongly recommend the "3 curries and rice" deal, also the samosas and bhaji were outstanding. Really friendly, helpful staff. If you're in the Northern Quarter, definitely try this out.

Perfect place to pick up some inexpensive vegan food in the Northern Quarter, quite simple but wholesome and the service was the best! The only downside is the food was quite oily, but it was overall lovely, my favourite being the bhindi!! Love ❤️🌼

100% vegan Indian! - Edit
100% vegan Indian restaurant. Extensive options. I like how unpretentious it is, with quick service. It's all very laid back. I had the green platter: I could choose 3 different vegan curries to go with the rice. The vegan cheese naan was nice and I also tried the vegan pecan brownie (my favourite) and the cinnamon brownie. Would definitely go back to try more of the menu

Great food, lovely staff, all vegan! - Edit
It was a cold and rainy day and my partner and I were craving something warm and comforting. I remember walking past this establishment on our first day in Manchester and seeing the absolute deal of a meal (3 curries and rice for £5.99) they had on offer.
Read moreIt was a no-brainer and we went into the restaurant, a quaint little place with a small seating area, we ordered the 3 curries deal as well as samosas and some peshwari naan. It was absolutely delightful. Exactly what we needed! The food was well spiced and overall delicious.
I genuinely cannot pick a favourite as all of it was incredible! Definitely recommend

Love this place. There main curries have the day aren’t too spicy so you can ask for extra sauce. I always come here with friends and order a bunch to share. Their best is samosa chaat and, new vegetable biryani and cheesy garlic naan.
