Bandook Indian Kitchen

Bandook started life in Bristol's Wapping Wharf in 2017, and the Bath flagship opened in Milsom Place in November 2019. It comes from the team behind the fine-dining Mint Room restaurants in Bath and Bristol, who built Bandook as their casual, street-food-led sister venture - same kitchen pedigree, looser format.

The menu runs breakfast through dinner with light snacks, small plates and large plates built around Indian street food: Grandma's curry, Punjabi lamb chops, taco dosas, Delhiwale's pocket kebab and a Lucknowi parda lamb biryani among the signatures. An extensive cocktail list runs alongside. The restaurant won Best Restaurant at the 2024 Bath Life Awards, and the Milsom Place setting - a courtyard just off the main shopping streets - makes it an easy stop for a long lunch or a proper dinner.
