The Good Curry Guide was a regularly published guidebook providing information about the UK's top curry restaurants. The Good Curry Guide was first published in 1984, by Pat Chapman, founder of The Curry Club. From 1991 through to the last edition in 2013, Cobra Beer was the Guide's sole sponsor.
Overview
The Good Curry Guide reported on over 1,000 top curry establishments. Though there was advertising and sponsorship, no fees were accepted for inclusion, and all of the inspections were anonymous.
Readers were actively encouraged to submit their reviews, online or by post, which were then considered for prospective inclusion in the next guide.
Restaurant Awards
The Good Curry Awards were given to the top UK curry restaurants by The Good Curry Guide from 1991.
