Royal Bites is an independent vegetarian Indian cafe and restaurant at 51B Melton Road in Leicester. Its approachable daytime setting specialises in homemade street food, snacks and sweets, offering a broad introduction to regional vegetarian cooking.
A Gujarati thali gathers several preparations into one complete meal, while breakfast can include parathas, chickpeas, chutney and salad. Chilli paneer and Indo-Chinese dishes provide a different balance of spice, crisp textures and savoury sauces.
Samosas, kachori, dhokla, onion bhaji and bateta wada are suited to a quick snack or a larger table assembled from smaller portions. Bhel puri and other chaat bring together crunchy, tangy and fresh elements, with Indian sweets such as shrikhand available afterwards.
Everything is made without meat, but individual dishes can still contain dairy, gluten, nuts or other allergens. Guests with allergies, intolerances or vegan requirements should confirm current recipes and preparation arrangements with staff before ordering.
Address: 51B Melton Road, Leicester LE4 6PN, England
