Mumbai Inn is an Indian and Nepalese restaurant at the corner of 1 De Montfort Street and 73 London Road in Leicester. Its city-centre position places it close to Leicester railway station and provides a convenient setting for an evening meal or collection order.
The kitchen draws on both Indian and Nepalese traditions, using carefully selected herbs and spices to build aromatic sauces and distinct layers of flavour. Familiar curry-house choices sit alongside dishes that reflect the restaurant’s Himalayan influences.
Starters, grilled dishes, curries, rice and breads allow diners to assemble a meal across several cooking styles. The broad format works well for sharing, while different strengths and flavour profiles give guests room to choose between gentle, fragrant preparations and dishes with greater heat.
Dine-in service is supported by takeaway collection, including extended arrangements around local events when advertised. Guests with allergies, intolerances or dietary requirements should consult the current menu and speak to staff about ingredients and preparation before ordering.
Address: 1 De Montfort Street / 73 London Road, Leicester LE1 7GE, England
