The Original Gandhi is an Indian restaurant in Swindon, positioned usefully at the eastern edge of the Cotswolds if you're exploring the region or using the town as a base for visiting nearby villages like Cirencester, Fairford, and Lechlade.
After spending time wandering the countryside, it's a good place to refuel with something different from the typical pub menus you'll find throughout the area.
The kitchen turns out a solid range of traditional Indian dishes, with aromatic curries, tandoori specialities, and freshly baked naan all on offer. You'll find it popular with both locals and visitors after a day out in the villages, whether you're after familiar comfort food or something with a bit more spice to it. The atmosphere is relaxed, making it work equally well for a quick bite between explorations or a more leisurely meal at the end of the day.
Swindon sits on the practical edge of the Cotswolds rather than in the heart of it, so this restaurant exists slightly away from the main tourist areas. That said, its location makes it convenient if you're heading to or from the prettier villages further into the region, or if you simply want a break from the more predictable dining options in those smaller towns.
