Namaste & Welcome · An Adventure in Taste & Culture
Slow-simmered curries, clay-oven tandoori and fragrant biryanis on Corporation Street — served in our fully licensed restaurant, or delivered to your door.
Our Story
Nestled on Corporation Street in the heart of Chesterfield, Indian Blues brings the rich, aromatic flavours of the Indian subcontinent to Derbyshire. Every dish begins the traditional way — whole spices toasted and ground in-house, marinades rested overnight, and breads slapped to the walls of a fiercely hot clay tandoor.
From slow-cooked bhunas and silky kormas to fiery naga and Goan specialities, our kitchen honours classic recipes while adding a flourish that is unmistakably ours. The same care goes into every takeaway we send out — same authentic flavours, same warm welcome.

The Craft
Great Indian food is built in layers. We toast cumin, coriander and cardamom until they release their oils, grind garam masala fresh each week, and balance every sauce by hand — never from a jar.
Whether you like it creamy and mild, medium and fragrant, or blow-your-head-off naga hot, our chefs will guide you to your perfect dish. Heat levels are marked across the menu, from medium to extremely hot.
