Tucked away on Pershore Road in King’s Norton, Kurry Kingdom is the kind of spot you walk into once and instantly know you’ll be back. From its fiery Chicken Pathia Puree to that cheekily named Really Really Expensive Chicken Balti, this restaurant doesn’t just serve Indian food-it brings full-on flavour drama to the table.
Let’s talk starters. If you’re the type who judges a place by its Onion Bhaji or Vegetable Samosa, Kurry Kingdom passes with flying (and crispy) colours. The Seekh Kebab and Chicken Shashlik? Juicy, spiced just right, and plated with flair. It's these small plates that set the mood for what’s coming next-and it’s coming in hot.
Now, the mains are where things start to get serious. Their Chicken Tikka Masala might be a classic, but here, it’s layered with complexity-creamy yet subtly smoky. The Naga Lamb is not for the faint-hearted, but if you're chasing that slow-building, lip-tingling heat, this dish delivers. Want something milder with tropical flair? The Malayan Vegetarian Biryani Naan is an underrated pick-sweet, comforting, and absolutely satisfying.
Rice and bread options don’t disappoint either. Go for the Lamb Bhuna Pilau Rice combo, then mop it all up with a Garlic & Coriander Naan-yes, the kind that pulls apart with a little crunch at the edge and softness in the middle. If you're more of a purist, a Plain Naan paired with Poppadoms and Chutneys makes a traditional but solid choice.
Beyond the mains, the vibe here is just easy. There’s wheelchair access, dine-in comfort, and even no-contact delivery for those cosy nights in. Whether you're solo dining or grabbing takeaway, the service remains consistently attentive and warm. Plus, they cater to all kinds of dietary needs, with vegetarian options, halal food, and even a nice selection of beer and spirits for those who like to pair their curry with a drink.
And the desserts-don’t even think about skipping them. The Chocolate Brownie with Ice Cream is rich, gooey, and exactly what you want after a spice-packed dinner. For those who lean toward lighter endings, there’s a coffee on hand to wrap things up just right.
What gives Kurry Kingdom an edge in Birmingham’s crowded curry scene is its balance between boldness and familiarity. There’s comfort in the classic dishes, but a sense of fun in how they’re presented-like their cheeky Chicken Boohna or Lamb Chops Again that tempt regulars back time and again.
It’s also the kind of place that feels reliable. Whether you’re after a quick bite at dinner, a full feast with friends, or a late-night food fix, this spot has the flexibility and flavour to match. And if you're the sort who appreciates great service with just the right pacing-never rushed, never forgotten-Kurry Kingdom gets that balance right too.
For those who live in the area or happen to be passing through Birmingham, this place deserves a spot on your culinary map. It’s got heart, heat, and heaps of character. Just don’t blame us when you start craving that Chilli Chips and Garlic Naan combo on the regular.
