Green Gates Indian Restaurant on Ferry Road, Renfrew, is part of the acclaimed Green Gates group that originated in Stirling and has since expanded into Glasgow and Renfrew. Located just a short walk from Renfrew’s bus routes and ferry terminal, this branch occupies a refurbished Georgian townhouse, combining traditional charm with contemporary comfort.
The restaurant’s interior features exposed brick walls, warm wood paneling and a blend of relaxed brasserie-style seating alongside areas set with white linen for a slightly more formal feel. Around 40 covers are arranged across cosy tables and comfortable booths, creating an inviting space for casual dinners, family meals or small group gatherings.
Green Gates offers a menu that spans northern and southern Indian cuisines, inspired by home-style cooking. Starters include pakora, samosa chaat, tandoori fish pakora and South Indian chilli chicken dosa. Main dishes feature popular curries such as butter chicken, chicken tikka masala, lamb rogan josh and regional specialities like Goan fish curry, saag paneer and whole tandoori chicken. South-Indian vegetarian options and a clay-oven kebab selection (including seekh kebab) cater to diverse tastes, while a 'raan for two' roast-style leg of lamb offers a sharing option.
The restaurant also provides a selection of beer, wine, cocktails and soft drinks, plus a complimentary amuse-bouche of spicy mushroom soup on arrival. Tableside extras and occasional mid-week lunch deals are offered, along with a takeaway service featuring set meals for two.
Green Gates balances the comfort of a local curry house with the quality and variety of a regional Indian kitchen. Its friendly service, warm environment and blend of classic and more adventurous dishes make it a versatile destination, ideal for families, couples and small social groups seeking authentic and accessible Indian cooking in Renfrew.
