The Tandoor Tavern at The Horse & Groom Inn brings together two very different culinary traditions in the heart of Wigginton village.
You'll find an Indian restaurant operating within a traditional English pub, which means you get the genuine atmosphere of a local drinking establishment alongside a kitchen turning out authentic curries, biryanis, and tandoor-cooked specialties. The bar remains a proper pub bar, while the dining areas offer comfortable surroundings where you can enjoy genuinely flavored Indian food rather than standard fare you'd expect from a typical country pub.
Locals have embraced the place because it simply works well. After a day walking or exploring around the Cotswolds, the contrast of vibrant spiced food in a relaxed village setting makes for a satisfying evening. The combination feels unpretentious and genuinely welcoming rather than contrived. Wigginton itself is a smaller village, so this spot provides something different from what you'd normally find in such a quiet corner. If you're staying nearby or visiting larger towns like Chipping Norton, it's a straightforward drive and well worth the trip for anyone wanting good food served without pretense in a friendly environment.
