The Farmhouse Restaurant

Indulge the Best of Both Worlds proclaims The Farmhouse restaurant on Beechwood Avenue in Coventry. This smart local eatery blends the best of Indian cooking with hearty, traditionally English dishes. That is not to say, though, that the food at The Farmhouse is of the faddy fusion variety. Instead, diners here are presented with two menus – one wholly devoted to the best in English food and the other solely covering fine Indian food. This is a unique approach to dining in the Midlands.

The Farmhouse is an upmarket Indian and English restaurant on Beechwood Avenue in Coventry. The dining room is a decked out in utilitarian chic – all bare beams and dark wood, and in the summer months, there’s a terraced area with room for kids to play. The menu offers both distinctly Indian and distinctly English dishes, meaning it’s easy to keep everyone happy. Try old fashioned English prawn cocktail and follow it with something buttery soft from the tandoori oven, or go the other way and have onion bhajis and follow them with steak and kidney pudding. The smallest diners are catered for too, with a special children’s menu that even includes a pud for less than a fiver. This is a fine local eatery for all the family.

Of course, Birmingham, not far up the road from this Coventry restaurant, is the home of Indian food in Britain, and as such there’s a kind of logic to The Farmhouse’s decision to offer both Indian and English cuisine, and more still to them keeping the menus completely distinct from each other. After all, Midlands diners are perhaps the most discerning curry fans in the country, and a chicken tikka dumpling simply isn’t good enough. Head over to The Farmhouse on Beechwood Avenue for the best of India and England in one place.
