Please note-the restaurant is now open for in-house dining and take away for collection only. The traditional cuisine of Kerala includes lots of lentils and fresh vegetables. As a result, our menu contains a wide array of gluten free, vegan and vegetarian dishes. These are authentic Kerala dishes rather than substitutes.
If someone in your group doesn't want to feel self-conscious about their dietary requirements we provide a varied and welcoming place to take them. If you have any questions just call ahead or ask us when you get here. We'll be delighted to explain any ingredients and help you choose a dish that suits you.

How to find us
Report
If arriving from Madingley (A 428, M11 Jn 13) or Huntingdon Road (Histon, A14) or Chesterton Road (Milton), turn onto Queen's Road and drive towards the Silver Street Junction. Parking is available on Queen's Road. Walk forward, past the Silver Street junction, past Darwin College and Granta Pub on your left and Rice Boat is just two doors away on the left, after the boating lake.
Parking
Report
Riceboat is on the main Ring Road in Cambridge so there is no parking on-site. We have a drop-off area at the back of the restaurant which you are welcome to use briefly. Drive through the archway between the Riceboat and Domenic's hairdresssers, bear left to the space beyond the building to your left.
