THE BUSINESS

Our clients established Punjabi Tadka back in 2010 after taking over the Atrium Court Indian restaurant which had traded for many years prior also, so the business is long established as an Indian restaurant, and Punjabi Tadka is an institution in the town.

The business enjoys an excellent reputation for its quality Indian cuisine and excellent service, and this is reflected in their strong online reviews and their various awards.

The business has a loyal and regular clientele for both sit in and delivery/takeaway, and this is derived from the high volume of residents from throughout East Kilbride, as well as from surrounding towns and further afield. The business also benefits from the surrounding health clubs, South Lanarkshire College, nearby Industrial & trading estates, as well as the East Kilbride Shopping Centre, cinema & ice rink etc.

Whilst the business is long established as an Indian restaurant, the premises would easily lend themselves to suit a wide variety of different restaurant & bar concepts, and benefit from a public house style premises licence which permits opening until 1am.
