Proud to be a family run business, Madhu’s has been at the heart of the family for four generations.

It all began in Nairobi, Kenya, where Bishan Das Anand in 1935 started a catering business. He later opened the legendary Brilliant Hotel in 1957 and established himself as a successful name in the industry.

Inspired by the work of their grandfather, Madhu’s Brilliant was opened in 1980 by Sanjay and Sanjeev Anand aged 17 and 16 respectively.

The name Madhu’s was derived from the nickname of their father Jagdish Kumar Anand. Their mother Krishna Kumari Anand, also the head chef was instrumental in the success of Madhu’s Brilliant.

In 2004, the family embraced a new chapter by rebranding the business as Madhu’s, a name that continues to honor its heritage while evolving to meet the expectations of modern diners.

Today, Madhu’s stands as a symbol of excellence, blending timeless traditions with innovative dining experiences.

A Legacy of Flavours

Madhu’s UK has flourished into an emblem of culinary excellence, rooted in tradition and elevated for today’s discerning palate. From its humble beginnings in Nairobi to becoming a cornerstone of British Asian cuisine, Madhu’s has crossed borders and bridged cultures.

Celebrating milestones in iconic venues, crafting unforgettable moments at weddings, and redefining luxury dining, Madhu’s continues to write its story. With each dish, a legacy is honored; with every event, a new chapter begins—blending heritage and innovation to create experiences that transcend time and place.
