Grand Trunk Road
Based in East London’s vibrant South Woodford, the Grand Trunk Road restaurant takes inspiration from its namesake. Built for traders in the 16th century, the Grand Trunk Road is Asia’s longest road, running through several regions and connecting Bangladesh to Afghanistan. The road acted as a major trade route and is still functional today. It has welcomed many travellers, as they sought to trade ingredients, spices and recipes, giving it its lively, diverse and colourful reputation.
The Grand Trunk Road restaurant offers a huge selection of dishes inspired by the sights, sounds, smells and flavours of this famous route, as well as the vibrant atmosphere and community spirit that would have been felt by all who travelled it.

We celebrated our anniversary at GTR. From start to finish our experience was simply sublime. Staff were attentive and Rajesh kindly took the time to explain dishes, their cultural significance and made very welcome suggestions. The food tasted exquisite and presentation was exceptional. We can’t wait to go back!
