Quick info
About The Khyber Restaurant
The Khyber Restaurant is an Indian restaurant on Victoria Road in Swindon, set in a clean, well-decorated dining room a short walk from the town centre. The menu centres on curries, with dishes such as Chicken Patia sitting alongside the broader range of familiar Indian restaurant plates. The team also runs an Indian takeaway and delivery service for off-site orders, and offers off-site catering, including setting up and serving food at private events such as a 30th wedding anniversary party. The space seats diners on site for sit-down meals and takes walk-ins alongside any bookings. Service runs through the main meal periods, and the kitchen accommodates side-by-side requests when guests are torn between options. The Khyber Restaurant occupies a ground-floor room in a row of shops along Victoria Road, with nearby street parking.

“We were staying in the Premier inn in Swindon town centre, we found this Indian and ate twice there in the 9 days we were there. The restaurant is clean and food was delicious, reasonably priced and large portions. The staff were very friendly and my service dog was allowed in . The restaurant had a lovely atmosphere and well decorated. I would highly recommend going here. Wish it was in the north of Scotland where we live as we would have it as one of our regular restaurants.”
