Located on Heath Lane in Findern, Lagan sits on the banks of the Trent and Mersey Canal, just outside the city centre. This stylish venue is the third branch of the successful Lagan Indian Tapas concept, known for its vibrant dishes, relaxed atmosphere, and contemporary twist on traditional Indian cuisine.
Following a £500,000 transformation, the Derby location features a sleek indoor-outdoor space with a pergola, water installations, and a spacious cocktail bar. With seating for up to 400 guests - including 150 outdoors - it’s perfect for everything from casual lunches to lively evening gatherings.
The menu is built around shareable small plates, combining classic Indian spices with modern presentation. Highlights include crispy desi tacos, garlic mushrooms, chicken tikka sliders, and paneer wraps. There’s also a selection of curries, wraps, and fusion dishes that blend Indian and English influences. Each meal supports a charitable initiative, providing a nutritious meal to a child in need in India.
Drinks are equally impressive, with craft cocktails, specialist wines, and a wide range of beers available to enjoy in the sun-soaked beer garden. The venue also hosts live music, private events, and seasonal specials, making it a dynamic addition to Derby’s dining scene.
