For those craving authentic Indian cuisine with bold flavours and a home-cooked feel, Munnar Hills in Douglas (previously known as Masala Zone) offers a wide-ranging takeaway-only experience that brings together the best of North and South Indian cooking. With no dine-in service, the focus is squarely on quality food for delivery or collection, making it a go-to for nights in or easy midweek meals.
The menu is packed with the classics — rich kormas and bhunas, fiery vindaloos and madras — all available with your choice of chicken, lamb, beef, prawns, or vegetables. Each dish is prepared with traditional spice blends and locally sourced Manx ingredients, delivering flavour that feels both familiar and refreshingly real.
Alongside the curry staples, you’ll find a strong selection of biryani dishes made with fragrant rice and layered spices, plus a rotating lineup of chef’s specials so regulars always have something new to try. Everything is cooked to order, including the ever-popular naan breads, perfect for tearing, scooping, and mopping up sauces.
What sets Munnar Hills apart is its commitment to regional authenticity and a lighter, home-style approach. Whether you want the creamy comfort of a butter chicken, the straight-up heat of a vindaloo, or the slow-cooked depth of a lamb bhuna, it’s done properly, with care and consistency.
Because Munnar Hills is collection and delivery only, the kitchen has honed recipes that travel well and arrive hot and fresh. Portions are generous, packaging is sturdy, and timing is reliable — whether you’re ordering a family spread, a dinner for two, or a solo treat.
Vegetarian options are well represented across the menu, and the team is happy to adjust spice levels or accommodate dietary needs on request. Friendly, approachable service makes ordering straightforward.
To round things out, there are the essential starters — onion bhajis, vegetable samosas, pakoras — ideal for sharing or building a fuller feast. You’ll also spot a few lesser-known regional dishes that reward the curious.
For flavour, freshness, and convenience under a new name, Munnar Hills remains a reliable favourite in the Douglas takeaway scene — authentic, varied, and consistently satisfying.
