Description
Tamila in Clapham brings a lively dose of South Indian flavour to Northcote Road, serving up a menu built around buttery roti, comforting curries and shareable small plates that nod to the flavours of Tamil Nadu. Expect moreish onion bhajis, flaky breads and deeply spiced dishes like Thanjavur chicken curry, all designed for relaxed sharing in a bustling, convivial dining room. The restaurant comes from the team behind The Tamil Prince and The Tamil Crown, with Prince Durairaj and Glen Leeson expanding their much‑loved concept south of the river to create a modern reimagining of a classic curry house.
The Clapham outpost has quickly earned a reputation as a neighbourhood favourite, drawing in crowds for its vibrant atmosphere and consistently delicious plates. Its quality hasn’t gone unnoticed either, with the restaurant earning a Michelin Bib Gourmand for delivering great food at good value, alongside appearances in the Michelin Guide in both 2025 and 2026.
Whether you're diving into okra fries and sweetcorn starters or lingering over curried dhal and rich meat dishes, Tamila keeps things unfussy, flavour‑first and always welcoming. With efficient, warm service and a drinks list designed to keep the good times flowing, it’s the kind of place you wander into for a quick bite and end up staying far longer than planned - just the way Clapham likes it.
