The restaurant opened in 1975 and takes its name from an old hill station in North West India. The area became a favourite weekend retreat for officers during the days of the British Raj since it offered a cool climate and a break from the heat of the Indian plains. Many important treaties and trading agreements were also signed at Simla.From the British Raj to 21st Century Oswestry, the name Simla has always been associated with a degree of culinary excellence and this is adequately reflected in the menu and fine wine list which we are proud to present.
