India Bistro’s first UK restaurant brings its celebrated Labour of Love concept to Chapel Allerton, reimagining modern Indian dining through a crafted and contemporary lens. The space is designed to feel warm, tactile and welcoming, echoing the brand pillars of natural materials, comfort and togetherness. Earthy tones of sand, saffron, terracotta and moss sit alongside textured finishes, rattan details and handcrafted elements that celebrate the artistry at the heart of Indian cooking.

The interior blends soft architectural curves, layered lighting and earthy textures with a modern, understated palette. Sculptural planting, woven ceiling features and atmospheric wall lights create a sensory backdrop that feels grounded yet refined. Each zone has been designed to foster connection, from the softly lit bar with its textured wall finishes and warm gradient tones to the dining area framed by rattan divider screens, crafted joinery and statement pendant lighting.

The servery and open kitchen take inspiration from traditional craft forms such as block printing and hand tooling, reflected in the tiled flooring, detailed timberwork and soft natural textiles. Organic artwork references Indian vernacular design in an elevated, contemporary way, giving the restaurant a sense of story and soul. The terrace continues this narrative with patterned flooring, natural timber seating, layered lighting and integrated planting that create a calming, atmospheric outdoor space.

Designed to feel like a home filled with texture, warmth and shared moments, India Bistro in Chapel Allerton embodies a new chapter for the brand in the UK. The result is a crafted, soulful dining experience where modern Indian cooking, community and atmosphere come together seamlessly.
