Our story

Nearly half a century on Broad Street

Chesham Tandoori opened in 1978. The town has changed a great deal since then. We're still here, still family owned, and still cooking the same traditional recipes that brought people through the door in the first place.

We buy locally wherever we can, cook everything to order and serve it with a smile. Simple rules, kept for a long time. It's how we've become, as we like to put it, a firm pillar of the local community.

Great restaurant, since the first meal my parents had when they moved here 20 years ago, till yesterday night.
