Quick info
About Turmeric Kitchen - Paddington
Turmeric Kitchen sits on Westbourne Terrace in Paddington, an Indian restaurant operating inside the Chilworth Hotel and a short walk from Paddington Station. The kitchen runs a wide menu of 71 dishes, and the Avocado Bombs stand out as a dish worth trying alongside the broader Indian spread. Seating operates on a walk-in basis, with no reservations taken, and the restaurant opens daily, giving guests flexibility whether they are staying at the hotel or arriving from the station. The size of the menu allows for a range of curries, breads and starters beyond the Avocado Bombs, making it suited to groups wanting to sample several dishes at once. Its position within the hotel building also makes it a convenient stop for travellers passing through Paddington rather than a destination requiring advance planning.

Customer Review Summary
Vegetarian starters draw the most praise, especially the avocado bombs alongside beetroot and tandoori ki phool, with the veg biryani and paneer angara also singled out. The naan gets called light and tasty. One reviewer, though, found flavors dialed down and unauthentic, with chewy lamb chops. Most describe friendly staff and a charming setting inside the hotel.

“The service and the setting and location is great. However we were a bit disappointed with the food. The flavours did not feel very authentic, and dialed down. The lamb chops were extremely chewy. The chicken tikka tali was not bad. We just ordered starters so the mains could be good. The price is reasonable.”

“Went here for my birthday dinner. Lovely experience, really like the atmosphere and the food especially is great quality for money. We got 3 vegetarian starters (in the photo), beetroot, avocado bombs and tandoori ki phool. We got veg biryani, paneer angara, okra and aubergine. All were excellent!”
