We say…
Located along the buzzing Harborough Road, Cardamon is just outside of Northampton city centre and is close to plenty of parks and shops. It’s a great choice if you live locally and who to enjoy some high quality food close to home. The Fox and Hounds pub is within walking distance, making this a nice choice if you’re meeting up with friends and fancy a few drinks after your meal.
Distinguishable from its glowing sign, Cardamon has an inviting exterior with a cream entrance decorated with plants. Once inside, you’re greeted by a pleasant bar area that offers a wide selection of wines and spirits, creating a lively and friendly atmosphere. The interiors are generally classic and relaxed, with light walls and a fresh appearance. This unpretentious venue is a lovely place for friends and colleagues to unwind with some tasty food.
Cardamon’s menu consists of lots of classic Indian dishes, with healthy options alongside indulgent treats, perfect for any occasion. A typical meal might begin with some Spicy Wings with a tangy kick or a classic Samosa with your choice of a vegetable or meat filling. For your main course, select from some succulent meat freshly cooked in the Tandoori oven, including a spicy Peri Peri Chicken served with salad and roasted vegetables or choose a classic Balti dish with your choice of spice level. The chef’s specials are interesting takes on classic dishes and are a great place to start if you’re spoilt for choice, with a Taj Special in a thick sauce, with your choice of chicken or lamb. If you fancy some seafood, you’ll be tempted by the Fish Uri, cooked in a medium sauce with plenty of garlic. Cardamon’s menu is extensive and exciting, providing lots of options, making this a lovely place to dine with a group.
