Fresh Every Morning
Our Tandoor Is Lit Before Sunrise
We believe the difference between good Indian food and great Indian food starts with the bread. Our naan is stretched by hand and loaded into a clay tandoor every morning — no frozen inventory, no shortcuts.

Our Story
A Neighborhood Market Rooted in Indian Tradition
Bombay Market started with a simple observation: families in Champaign were driving hours to find the spices, flatbreads, and ingredients they needed for everyday Indian cooking. We opened our doors on North 2nd Street to change that.
Today, we serve a diverse community — from first-generation Indian households keeping recipes alive to college students and food lovers discovering the depth of Indian flavors for the first time. Every product on our shelves is chosen with the same standard we'd apply to our own kitchens.
