Mowgli, Indian Restaurant in Preston
Fronted with green tiling and high glass-panelled windows lined floor to ceiling with our famous swing seats, Mowgli Preston is the place to meet friends and family and to unwind and unplug. Found at the Miller Arcade, once a home to Victorian Turkish baths, the 1899 gallery was modelled on the larger Burlington Arcade in London. Mowgli Preston sits amongst other well-known and independent shops, restaurants, and bars, and its old school charm will take you back 100 years.

The Mowgli Story
A tale of a different kind of Indian restaurant in Preston
Mowgli Preston is all about bringing the type of food that Indians eat and cook at home, with the fresh, bright and intense flavours of the streets of Varanasi. We’ve moved away from the stereotypical curry house menu to focus on the aromatic, herb-led dishes that are actually found on an Indian family table. These family recipes, handed down through generations, are being brought to life in the heart of Preston to give you a taste of real Indian street food.
The Mowgli experience
What to expect
Our Preston home is a sociable, stylish spot where the swing seats, green tiling, and tall glass-panelled windows create the perfect atmosphere for a sit-down meal with friends and family. Either grab one of our infamous swing seats or a booth and get stuck into a pile of small plates and classic Indian street food.
