Non-veg is not one kind of meal
A search for non-vegetarian restaurants on Avinashi Road can produce very different answers: Chettinad cooking, biryani, seafood or a fried-chicken burger. That difference matters more than a single “best” label. A table of cuisine and road pocket will get you closer to the meal you mean than a generic list of places serving chicken somewhere on the menu.
The Broadway side has Junior Kuppanna, Rayappas, Neydhal, Jade By Broadway and UFO Burgers. Urban Bar-B-Que is toward the airport end. Hotel Kannappa is another mixed-menu option to check toward that end. Do not assume these venues are all neighbours: Avinashi Road covers several kilometres and a cinema food court has a different entrance and schedule from a sit-down restaurant. For the wider choice including vegetarian venues, use the full road guide.

No unverified price is supplied for the independent restaurants in this table. Cuisine categories describe what to investigate, not a promise about every dish offered on the day. Before travelling for a particular preparation, check the specific branch's current menu and opening hours.
Junior Kuppanna: Tamil Nadu non-veg
Junior Kuppanna is one of the better-known names near Broadway for Tamil Nadu non-vegetarian and Chettinad-style food. This is a useful first stop if your idea of non-veg involves a proper cooked meal rather than a burger or a quick fried-chicken box. Look at the current meat dishes and accompaniments together; the style of a dish matters more than a generic “chicken available” tag. It is also a sensible comparison point against Rayappas if Chettinad cooking is the specific purpose of the trip.
Set aside time to sit, order and eat. A restaurant meal is harder to fit into a narrow pre-screening gap than a food-court order. If you are travelling from Broadway Cinemas, verify the exact location and route rather than treating “near Broadway” as an in-building counter. Current prices and wait times are not confirmed here, so checking today's menu is preferable to making assumptions about value from a directory category.
Best for: A regional sit-down meal near the Broadway side.
Rayappas Chettinad Restaurant: a wider non-veg menu
Rayappas Chettinad Restaurant covers Chettinad dishes, biryani, seafood and chicken, with Chinese, North Indian and South Indian choices also associated with its menu. That breadth helps when one diner is committed to biryani while another wants a seafood dish. The restaurant's name signals a regional focus, but it is worth looking at the current menu before deciding that every member of a mixed group will find exactly the dish they expect.
If seafood is the primary reason you are going, ask what is available that day rather than relying on the presence of “seafood” in a listing. If Chettinad-style meat is the priority, compare Rayappas with Junior Kuppanna based on the actual dish, portion and current price you want. They are both Broadway-side leads; neither is part of the cinema food court. Leave time for a sit-down meal and the return to your next stop.
Best for: Chettinad or seafood when the group wants more than one cuisine choice.
Neydhal: a non-veg-focused lead near Broadway
Neydhal is specifically associated with non-vegetarian food near Broadway. That makes it relevant to this narrower search even though a single cuisine label does not establish its strongest individual dish. Start by checking its current menu for the protein and preparation you want rather than expecting the breadth of a multi-cuisine restaurant like Rayappas. It is a separate destination from the Broadway food court, so verify the map pin and entrance before walking or driving over.
We do not attach an invented price, signature dish or opening time to Neydhal. If you are choosing among it, Junior Kuppanna and Rayappas, use today's menu to decide whether you want a broadly non-veg-focused restaurant, a Tamil Nadu classic or a Chettinad-and-seafood mix. If your schedule only allows for collection and a quick meal, a food-court stop is a different decision altogether.
Best for: Checking a restaurant dedicated to non-vegetarian choices.
Jade By Broadway: biryani and a broader table
Jade By Broadway is the biryani-led possibility in this shortlist, also covering North and South Indian food. It works better as a candidate for a group meal than as a specialist fried-chicken recommendation. Ask which biryanis and other mains are available now; the presence of a category in a directory is not a guarantee of a particular meat choice at every service. If you are deciding between Jade and Rayappas, compare the dishes your group actually wants rather than assuming “biryani” is identical at both.
The name can make Jade sound as though it is part of Broadway Cinemas' indoor food court. Plan it as a separate restaurant visit and confirm the entrance. Before or after a film, account for travel back, ordering and eating time. If the gap is short, use an in-complex food option instead of betting on a sit-down meal finishing on schedule.
Best for: A group that wants biryani alongside North and South Indian options.
Urban Bar-B-Que: seafood toward the airport
Urban Bar-B-Que is the airport-end seafood lead in this guide. It is useful if your journey is already taking you to that side of the corridor; it is not a near-Broadway fallback just because both areas are associated with Avinashi Road. Compared with Rayappas, which lists seafood among several cuisines, this is the more seafood-directed name. Neither description confirms what catch or dish is available today, so check the menu before a dedicated seafood trip.
For an airport journey, work backwards from your required arrival time. Even a restaurant near the airport-facing end may involve a drive to the terminal, parking and food preparation. Check the precise address and current hours instead of treating “airport end” as “inside the airport.” If some people in your party avoid seafood, review the whole menu before selecting it for a group.
Best for: A seafood-focused stop on the airport-facing side of Avinashi Road.
UFO Burgers: fried chicken in Broadway's food court
UFO Burgers is inside Broadway Cinemas' food court at Shop No. 6. Its fried-chicken burgers use marinated, breaded, pressure-fried chicken inside a pressed, sealed bun. The Abduction is the mild, creamy-garlicky starting point at ₹199; The Inferno Zone at ₹229 is the ultra-spicy choice. If the point of the trip is fried chicken, do not select The Mothership by mistake: it costs ₹219 and uses flame-grilled chicken. The sealed format holds fillings together, although a hot burger can still lose some crispness while sitting in a wrapper.
There are paneer options across the burger line for vegetarians with a non-veg-focused group. If you want more than a burger, fries are priced at ₹89, ₹99 and ₹109; the combos come with refreshers, not milkshakes. Check the menu for the exact pack contents. The food court makes this the easiest of these choices when you are already at Broadway. Broadway's policy on carrying food into the auditorium is not confirmed, so eat in the appropriate area unless the cinema tells you otherwise.
Best for: A quick chicken burger with known prices and a defined spice choice.
Hotel Kannappa: a mixed-menu option
Hotel Kannappa offers both vegetarian and non-vegetarian food, including Haribhavan and UAE Arab cuisine dishes. That mix is useful when “non-veg” describes only part of the table. Check the current branch menu to see which items meet everyone's dietary needs; a venue offering vegetarian dishes does not automatically imply a separately prepared vegetarian kitchen. If strict separation matters, ask the restaurant directly.
It belongs with the airport-facing options in this guide rather than the immediate Broadway food-court choices. Verify the exact outlet and travel time before suggesting it to a group meeting at the cinema. Current prices and service hours have not been confirmed here. For a quick fried-chicken-specific stop, UFO is a closer match to the brief; for a mixed sit-down table, Kannappa deserves a look at its live menu.
Best for: A group balancing vegetarian and non-vegetarian preferences.
Match the craving to the part of the road
For Chettinad-style meat, compare Junior Kuppanna and Rayappas near the Broadway side. For a non-veg-focused restaurant without a stated signature dish here, check Neydhal's current menu. For biryani with a broader Indian selection, consider Jade By Broadway. For seafood, compare Rayappas with Urban Bar-B-Que, remembering that the latter is toward the airport end. For fried chicken specifically, UFO Burgers is the Broadway food-court choice with published prices and mild-to-hot options. Hotel Kannappa fits a mixed group better than a narrowly defined fried-chicken search.
The category is only half the decision. Check the address, available dish and current hours before travelling, particularly if you are fitting a meal around a screening or flight. Our Broadway-area guide separates in-building counters from nearby restaurants; the fried-chicken burger guide goes deeper on that particular style.
