Royal Balti House
About
Royal Balti House is Bolton’s oldest Indian restaurant, opening its doors in 1969 as Kohinoor and still standing as a culinary landmark. The kitchen specialises in authentic Northern Indian fare, with the signature Bolti dish – a fiery curry served straight from a cast‑iron pot – and a comprehensive vegan menu that caters to every dietary need. Lauded by the English Curry Awards, Nations Curry Awards, and the Bolton News, the venue combines award‑winning cuisine with a warm, family‑friendly ambience that has attracted celebrities and locals alike. Patrons can dine in, order takeaway within five miles, or enjoy specials such as free beers, wine, or starters when spending £20 or more, making the restaurant a value‑oriented dining destination for both solo diners and larger groups.
