Indian Cuisine – Massala Tandoori Restaurant, Perranporth
Located right in the heart of Perranporth and just a few miles or a couple of minutes’ drive from Perran Springs Holiday Park is the Massala Tandoori Restaurant. It features a mix of Indian cuisine that includes traditional dishes with their own signature touch alongside several exclusive and unique dishes.
While takeaway is available, dining in the unique and modern setting is a pleasure in itself if you feel you’d like to sit down to a hot meal. On top of that there is an all-you-can-eat buffet available on Sundays, as well as a ‘banquet night’ on Wednesdays that lets you eat as much as you want from the selection of 10 dishes that are available. Both of these special menus are great value for money. There is also a set menu for four, where the food never seems to end, and we find it a struggle to finish completely! Overall this restaurant is extremely clean, very friendly, tasty food and great value for money.

selection of tasty options ranging from Chinese-style curries or sweet and sour dishes, to various types of noodles, rice dishes, and more. Some of our favorites are:
Szechuan Chilli Beef
Cantonese Duck
