Ticca Tikka is a modern Indian restaurant and takeaway at 122 Kingsland Road in Haggerston. The menu combines familiar curries with colourful street food and a substantial vegan selection, giving diners several ways to approach a meal. The informal room and evening opening hours suit both a quick dinner and a longer shared order before exploring the surrounding Shoreditch and Hoxton nightlife.
Street food starters bring together crisp, tangy and spicy flavours. Samosa chaat layers spiced potato and chickpeas with tamarind, mint chutney and dairy free yoghurt, while paani poori arrives as hollow crisp shells with chickpeas and sharp sauces. Steamed Ticca momo, chilli paneer, achari paneer tikka and chicken lollipops extend the choice from gentle savoury snacks to dishes with more heat.
Main courses cover chicken tikka masala, korma, jalfrezi and bhuna alongside other regional curry styles. Tandoori cooking gives chicken, lamb and paneer a smoky character before they are paired with rice, bread or sauce. Vegetable curries and meat free versions of familiar recipes, including a vegan Kashmiri rogan josh, allow plant based diners to explore more than one token option.
Pilau rice, naan, masala chips, cucumber raita and chutneys make it easy to adjust richness and spice across the table. Fresh salads with avocado, mango, chickpeas and pomegranate provide a lighter contrast to fried starters and creamy sauces. Ticca Tikka’s combination of classic British Indian favourites, contemporary street food and clearly developed vegan dishes gives the Kingsland Road menu broad appeal.
