Massala Lounge

Massala Lounge has been in Sale since 2006 and is somewhat of a local institution on the food scene. 

While the menu does have plenty of authentic cuisine that you’d expect to see on an Indian menu, it shines with the quality of its ingredients. Plus, the service is great and very welcoming. 

It can get quite busy, especially at weekends, so worth popping in to book a table if you’ve got your heart set on dining in. 

Available for takeaway? Yes. 

📍Massala Lounge, 3 School Road, Cheshire, Sale M33 7XY

Madras Spice

Madras Spice in Sale Moor has a large menu, but doesn’t skimp on quality. Choose from a huge selection of starters including chicken chat, mixed kebab and veg pakora. Any of their signature dishes are bound to satisfy your appetite, including lahori sizzler gosht and tandoori chicken saag. 

There’s something for everyone. 

Available for takeaway? Yes. 

📍Madras Spice, 180 Northenden Road, Sale M33 2SR

néel panéer

You can expect more than just meat in spicy sauce from néel panéer. It’s become a popular Indian restaurant in Ashton on Mersey village since it opened due to its excellent starters and sides with tandoori grills. 

Available for takeaway? Yes. 

📍néel panéer, 3 Green Lane, Ashton upon Mersey, Sale M33 5PN

The New Mughal Balti House

Expect a warm welcome at Mughal Balti, every time. Choose from its vast selection of clay oven specialities, including tandoori murgh, lamb tikka and paneer. 

The New Mughal Balti House is also a popular option for those looking for something different for Christmas dinner, as it is open on Christmas Day. Make sure you book in advance! 

Available for takeaway? Yes. 

📍The New Mughal Balti House, 43 Washway Road, Sale M33 7AB

Curry Cottage

Curry Cottage set meals, for both meat and non-meat eaters, are reasonably priced and very filling. Includes poppadoms, mix starter, chicken tikka starter, onion bhaji, lamb pasanda, to name just a few items! A more traditional curry house, their menu has everything you might expect. 

Available for takeaway? Yes. 

📍Curry Cottage, 394 Washway Road, Cheshire, Sale M33 4JH

Green Pepper

Another extensive menu, Green Pepper’s ‘snacks’ are ideal for those with a smaller appetite. They include the chicken shashlik wrap and the donner achari naga wrap (both £5.95). 

Whether you’re looking for Indian vegetarian foods or authentic non-veg dishes, you will get it all here. 

📍Green Pepper, 11 Green Lane, Ashton upon Mersey, Sale M33 5PN

Roti’s tiffins

Roti Food & Liquor Sale

One of Sale’s newest additions to the Indian restaurant scene, Roti opened in Stanley Square in 2021, after its success with its nearby Chorlton restaurant. 

Dishes are served to be shared, as tapas-style portions; thanks to the owner’s Indian-Scottish heritage, expect a fusion of both cuisines. If you haven’t been there yet, you might think it won’t work, but it really does. 

Roti is open for lunch and often runs its ‘tiffins for a tenner’ offer. Much of the menu is meat-free, making this restaurant a great option for vegans. 

Available for takeaway? Yes. 

📍Roti Food & Liquor, 24 Stanley Square, Sale, M33 7WZ
