Mother India's Cafe

Y'know that feeling when you go for curry but just can't for the life of you decide what to order? That's where Mother India Café comes in. Little sister to the original Mother India, this informal and friendly atmosphere makes for a wonderfully laid back dining experience which isn’t too hard on your pocket either.

With an extensive array of delicious Indian flavours and plenty of options for vegetarians, customers can use the tapas style portions to experiment and taste a little bit of everything. This new style of Indian cuisine has made Mother India’s Cafe one of the most well received restaurants in Glasgow.
