Indian Gymkhana Club is a historic sporting and social club on Thornbury Avenue in Osterley, with a restaurant serving members, guests and visitors throughout the week. Founded to promote sport and community, the club brings dining together with cricket, hockey, football, events and private functions. Its restaurant and terrace offer an informal setting for a meal, a drink or food shared after activity on the grounds.
The tandoor shapes much of the starter selection. Chicken tikka, tandoori chicken wings and whole or half tandoori chicken are marinated with yoghurt, herbs and spices before cooking in the clay oven. Lamb seekh kebabs and tandoori lamb chops provide robust alternatives, while paneer tikka gives vegetarian diners the same smoky cooking method and sizzling presentation.
Main courses cover familiar meat, seafood and vegetarian curries. Prawn masala and fish masala use tomato, onion, ginger, garlic and coriander, while palak paneer, chana masala, aloo gobi and mixed vegetable curry offer substantial meat free choices. Dal tarka and dal panchratna focus on lentils, and richer options such as butter paneer or vegetable korma bring a creamier balance to the menu.
Basmati pilau, pea pulao and egg fried rice can be paired with plain, garlic, cheese or Peshawari naan. The terrace menu extends the choice with loaded fries, chicken tikka burgers, masala fish and chips, paneer Manchurian and Schezwan fried rice, reflecting the club’s relaxed approach to social dining. Gulab jamun, kulfi and rasmalai provide traditional sweet finishes after the savoury courses.
