Lovely Takeaway

Enjoyed a takeaway from here. Lots of vegan options clearly marked on the menu - some of which very spicy. Poppadoms were free with the order.

Pros: Excellent food , Very filling

Delicious Indian food in Aviemore

We were looking for vegan food and alighted upon the Royal Tandoori, which offers a wide range of vegan and vegetarian curries. The staff were courteous and prompt and the food was really well made and just what we wanted after a day of walking up Cairn Gorm.

I had the spinach curry, which was medium spiced, just as I like it. Their roti are vegan too, and, sharing a rice with my partner, this was enough to fill a hungry walker.

Pros: Delicious curry, Something a bit different in Aviemore, Friendly staff

Cons: Beer selection is poor (if you like ales)

Bangin Curry

Plenty of clearly marked vegan options on menu. We had a potato spinach curry, and another slightly hotter vegetable one with rice and chapatis. We asked about ghee and dairy and the staff understood and were helpful. We had poppadoms to start and the usual tray of dips was brought out although we were informed that the yellow one had yoghurt in it.

Pros: Lots of options , Tasty curries, Friendly staff and fast service

Great saagaloo

We had dinner at this place. The bhindi was not great, but the samosa’s were nice and the saagaloo was really good (ask them to make it spicy, because they’re used to adjust to European tastes).

Pros: Very good saag aloo

Old school Tandoori with vegan options

From the outside this Tandoori does not look especially alluring and the menu is old-school, divided into various styles of curry with your choice of meat, fish or vegetables. But it does have various vegetable side dishes marked as vegan. The vegetable biryiani was not marked as vegan (it was under the multi-choice biryiani section) but when I asked if it was dairy free and specifically that it did not have any ghee, the waitress checked with one of the managers who said it was vegan. Obviously I had to take this on trust but given that they have other dishes marked as vegan, I had no reason to doubt it. Similarly my companion asked about one of the curries, and was assured the vegetable version was vegan. We had poppodums to start with and requested no yoghurt on the pickle tray, and indeed there was none. This is virtually unprecedented - usually the yoghurt still comes.

The food was tasty and the usual large portions you get in Tandooris. Poppodums, pickles and the two main courses came to around £20 (no drinks). Friendly service.
