Aagrah in Craven

Superb food and service. The food at Aagrah is the best I've had. Utterly delicious. Went for vegetable Madras: without doubt, the very best I've ever had. Great service throughout. Very highly recommended.

Popped in on a Saturday evening for tea, visited with 2 couples. The restaurant was busy but they found us a table. The menu was not a traditional Indian menu what I’m used to but there was plenty of dishes to choose from. We all had poppadoms, starters and mains and we all agreed the food was very nice. Staff were efficient and friendly. Would return.

Appalling ordered a special byriani with explicit instructions for no shellfish as I am highly allergic the waiter was told at least 3 times for no shellfish as I am allergic. Enjoyed the poppadoms while waiting the mains arrived adorned with very shellfish like prawns atop 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️complained and to be fair the staff offered to remake but by that time my confidence had disappeared and was in no mood to eat

Fab location by the canal, nice food, service was fantastic. The manager was very friendly, professional and well mannered. Definitely worth a visit!

The food was nice would definitely go back again. This time would ask for Asian style to up the spice. Great location next to the canal and great service. The manager was very helpful, professional and well mannered. Would recommend a visit!

Lukewarm, seemingly mass produced, supermarket shelf microwave-ready food. Wife’s bhuna appears to be frozen veg in a bland curry sauce. Again, shop bought samosas; no fresh herbs / spices. My chicken achar was ok but barely warm. Not offered dessert; seemed in a hurry to get us out - plates cleared, bill presented (without asking). Next customer! Mass produced restaurant chain fare. Plus side - staff polite and cheery! Used to be a treat to go to the Aagrah - much better curry houses are available in Skipton. Disappointing.

Very disappointing; shabby; unclean bathrooms, had not been for 5 years and won’t go again. Our two vegetarian different dishes were identical and not great. The vegetables in it were predominantly potatoes and carrots, can’t get cheaper than that and so a very overpriced dish. Sorry Aagrah we had hoped for better.

Wow! Aagrar Skipton is amazing! I ordered the Lamb Punjabi Masala, Lamb chops and cheese naan, which was delicious. The atmosphere was beautiful and the decor was spectacular, which made for a great dining experience. Service was on point from the waiters, definitely recommend Aagrar Skipton to anyone looking for a delicious meal in a beautiful setting.

Went out with a couple of friends last weekend for a curry out. 10/10 food absolutely amazing, fine dining curry, amazing atmosphere too. The staff were so welcoming and friendly and overall would highly recommend this Aagrah for a curry out

Waiter very friendly and we had a great table but the food was meh. In particular the peshwari naan was awful. Pineapple and sultanas on a dry pizza base! Obviously no Tandoori oven. Got the price of the naan off the bill. Restaurant grubby.

Poor experience for what should have been a lovely Christmas celebration with colleagues. Party were hugely over charged, stating we had "copious" amounts of alcohol! Clearly thought we wouldn't notice. Most of us were driving. No itemised bill given, the manager was rude and disrespectful when challenged. We were asked to come back to discuss the issue but we have never given opportunity to meet in person since. No response to further emails from a number of the party. Disgraceful, check your bill!! Def won't be returning!!

Quite disappointed with this place, looks a bit tired from the outside and the same on the inside. It’s not dirty, but looks really worn out. The food was nothing special, really bland overall.I would not recommend this place, far better places to eat in the area.

Best seat in Skipton. This has got to be the best kept secret in Skipton. While everyone else scrambles for a seat and end up sat on upturned beer barrels there is a small outdoors seating area at the Aagrah right next to the canal that gets overlooked. Great food. Great ambience. Great service.

The food and the service was really good and the staff was friendly the view there is really nice too, beautiful atmosphere.

Visited skipton Town with friends The Yorkshire rose pub owner recommended indian restaurant we tried as per her recommendations food was next level with excellent service .

I’m confident the food here poisoned me. It’s the only food I ate in the last 24 hours that I did not eat in the proceeding days. There was also a good amount of meat. It was also half of what came up. I would...

Delicious meal with plenty of choice. A little too spicy for me. But highly recommend. Good service and friendly welcome. Finally a coffee that is not bitter

Ordered take out for 6 adults using the app, was straightforward. Only issue is the app states they do not open till 5:30pm when it is actually 5pm. All dishes were plentyfull and very tasty with little oil floating.

We was really looking forward to trying this restaurant, however, we was not impressed, the starter was very under cooked, shami kebab was like slop, we mentioned it to our server and he said he would let the chef know, that’s as far as that...

What a shame. Great location, and to be fair we had good service and could not fault the staff who were attentive ... However the food in our opinion was below average. Don't go expecting this to be a "curry experience"... That it is not....

First time we have ever had a Take Away from this restaurant.....it was excellent, great food as always, and large portions that meant we had it for Tea the next day! Our favourite Indian Restaurant bar none!

went here yesterday for mothers day, myself and my eldest son Scott, absolutely gorgeous setting, fabulous food, polite respectfull young staff, theres a big car park directly outside which is good has i have a disability, the decor is lovely, big glass entrance, overall, a...

Nasty food Nasty waiter's Unclean I have reported them Please report any food or hospitality issues The manager picking his nose and shouting at people, he obviously needs help with his behaviour I'm shocked

Myself and my family visited over Christmas spending over £100 on food and drinks. On arrival we were greeted by a member of staff and as we had parked outside we were asked our car registration due to only people visiting the restaurant could park...

I came with my other half. The scenery was so pleasant and matched our vibe. Food was spot on that i had to order a second round just for takeout. I can confirm this place is amazing and definitely recommend😊😊😊

Very nice restaurant for Indian curry, I had a Chicken balti asian style, very tasty absolutely impeccable. The texture of the cheese naan was out of this world definitely recommend. If you are touring around Skipton make sure you pay a visit to Aagrah Skipton,...

We went here without checking reviews! At first we were greeted well and the menu looked great. Hence the 1 star! We had to wait over an hour for our order to arrive. Starter kabab dish- we were told there will be 2 pieces of...

Excellent food, amazing staff and service. An authentic curry, very well flavoured. Regular customer and never any complaints, always good 👍🏻

I have been here a few times and the food never disappoints. We had our Christmas dinner here too today, a buffet! The food was beautiful with plenty to choose from, a nice break from the norm. The staff are always welcoming and polite. 5*...

Trading on the good name of the company they bought out. Simply terrible food and very expensive to boot. Avoid at all costs.

Where do I start? Only visited here because Skipton balti house was closed, we planned our night on the understanding Skipton balti house would be open until midnight, after reading the opening times on their website. Had a few drinks in Skipton and then headed to the Balti house around 8.30 to find a hand written note in the window saying closed. Plans scuppered! Being on a Monday night we didn’t have many options left but we were hungry. Promised an Indian to the kids so headed to Aagrah, having already read the reviews we didn’t expect much but thought it surely couldn’t be that bad, low and behold it was worse! On entry into the building I could see that everyone was pushed into one corner to make it look half busy. The table by the window offered a great view, best thing of the night. We ordered a popadom and pickle starter, the popadoms weren’t too bad but the pickle condiments were mixed up with one another (mint sauce in lime pickle, lime pickle in mango, mango in chilli etc.) and they all had a sour taste, they came out in plastic take away tubs that you would expect to get from a kebab shop. Carry on regardless. Next rice and naan breads. The rice looked like uncle Bens with a couple of mushroom slices on the top and the naan breads looked like a thin pizza base with holes in. The rice was clay cold, so we complained about it. It was taken away and came back slightly warmer. The curries came out and to be generous Wetherspoons curry are of better standard which is damning. Needless to say we won’t be going back but feeling sorry for the staff as they obviously don’t decide what goes on in that branch of the chain. We payed the bill and left. So please don’t be drawn in by the bright lights but the chips were nice.

Don't go near the place! . Ordered a take out for our wedding anniversary last night. I had one of my faves chicken hyberdadi. Whilst eating I noticed a few pieces of chicken that looked undercooked & I left them to one side. Later on in the evening my stomach was making all sorts of strange noises, only for me to wake with severe abdominal pain at 3am. Needless to say I spent the rest of the night & most of the day in the bathroom. I feel like I have been hit by a bus & I'm extremely upset that being so unwell is affecting me doing fun stuff with my kids in the summer holidays. Especially as it's completely unnecessary! A reputable restaurant like aagrah really need to be more careful, this is not acceptable hygiene & cooking practise, & I would expect so much more. Up until now aagrah has been one of my favourite restaurants but I will now avoid it like the plague & tell everyone I know to do the same. They deserve to go out of business!

First visit to this restaurant but will definitely not be returning. Service was shocking and food was cold so had to be returned. Drinks were whisked away before we had finished. Staff tried to memorise drinks order and got it wrong. All staff seemed uninterested and rushed. Expensive too! Shipley restaurant is far better.

Staying in Skipton with 2 small dogs and hadn’t booked anywhere for dinner! The proprietor opened up the garden which is next to the canal. Food really excellent and service good. The naan was the best I’ve ever had!

This wasn't a great experience. Much of the food appeared to have been prepared well in advance - the chicken was tough and dry, and the naan bread had an odd texture, more like a pastry than a bread. I've eaten at several restaurants in this chain before, and have always found the Leeds branch to be excellent. The Skipton branch started out well, but deteriorated soon afterwards and it is now causing harm to the reputation of Aagrah. I doubt that I will return.

I came here with friends and overall it was disappointing. Service was rushed. My friend hadn't finished eating when they started to clear the table. I also found a hair in my rice, when I showed the waiter they asked what did I want.. did I want another rice. No apology or addressing it. I was later charged for it which I thought was poor customer service. I do have dietary requirements of gluten free. When the first waiter was asked about the poppadoms being gluten free he shrugged. the next waiter was more helpful, but seeing as I got a piece of hair in my food.. I'm not sure how careful they are so anyone with allergies, take care in this place.

Beautiful food and great service! Will be back!, starters, mains and desserts, ALL DELISH! We’re Indian so we’re always extra critical of Indian cuisine but credits where it’s due! Unreal!

Always a great place and staff are so friendly and accommodating. Great location and view of canal. Menu has so many favourites

Came for a meal here and throughly enjoyed. Could not fault, the staff were friendly, the restaurant was clean and welcoming and the food was out standing. Good value for money Would highly recommend

A very classy nice restaurant. A warm welcoming, followed by an excellent service, with a lot of attention to details on order to please you. Food was amazing me and my family had a very good time will recommend my friends. Thanks 😊

As someone from Bradford, and taken into account that the Aagrah started in Bradford, I can safely say that those Bradford curry standards have not followed. The starter was fine ... pakora using fresh veg but the mains were substandard. A lot of frozen veg, lacking aroma, lacking spice (basically just lacking) ....it was like a base sauce with some veg thrown in. To add insult to injury the chappatis were charged seperately (something else not followed on from Bradford curry ethics) meaning the whole thing was a very expensive affair for a meal was a poor as the ones we had in Herefordshire when we lived there (and they were dire). We came out totally shocked that they get away with charging so much for so little quality. The staff were friendly enough but service was slow. We waited ages for the main to arrive. Overall there was nothing redeeming about the whole experience. Will not be going there ever again....not even if I was rich. Awful, just awful.

This has to be one of the best restaurants in the Uk The food is incredible! Every time I go back it gets better. The staff can’t do enough for you and make every visit perfect. Thank you can’t wait to eat here again. Darren.

So first order due to a recomdation....paid for two garlic nans only recieved one...orderd chips ...it was litterly less then half in the tub ( wish id of taken a pic..) was not going to ask the guy to come back and drop off another garlic nan off on a sat night...but 1st impressions...not the best. Happy to give you my online order number so you can check this out.

Went in to pick up a take away. A man emerged from a door-clearly something to do with the restaurant- came close to me- maskless- asked me if I was being served. No social distancing. Won’t be back til pandemic over. Have been regular for years.

First time trying here as we usually go local but I am so impressed with the food here. We got two mains & a mixed starter, everything was to die for.. really enjoyed it so thank you so much. We will come again 😊

On behalf of us all – thank you for making our evening such an enjoyable one! Excellent environment, friendly service, great menu choices and really decent food and at affordable prices. Will be back.“ Merry Christmas ❤️

I trust the Title of the review will speak volumesOn arrival we were 'instructed' to wait in the seating area, not asked if we would like to order any drinks whist waiting10 minustes later we were escorted to our table, seated within 3 feet of the next table (not Covid safe)5 mins more passed and we had to request a drinks menu, on receipt of it we asked which of the dry wines would they recommend, the response "Oh ermm Pinot Grigio or Chardonnay" evidently not a clue.....we dont expect someone with someilier knowledge but honesty would have been preferred eg "I dont know and will get someone to help"I asked if they could add a segment of Lime in the Corona beer I wanted to order...."Yes Sir no problem" When it arrived it had a slice of Lemon in it. I asked about it, only to be informed by the Manager, they dont have any Limes?After another period (5mins) we were then asked if we'd like to order the food......"Not yet as we haven't been given a food menu to consider".......Food ordered....... 15 mins later.......Both Currys (Paneer Balti) were served, albeit flavorsome both were Lukewarm, similarly the Basmati Rice and the Rotis came unwrapped and tepid (didn't take long to go cold) .....You could argue, we should have brought it to the attention of the waiting team, however, as we'd been in the place circa 35/40 mins for our meal, to be honest I just wanted to eat it and get out........Perhaps, if, from a professional waiting team perspective, we'd have been asked in a timely manner eg 5 mins of starting to eat the meal, we would have mentioned it, we were asked when we'd eaten more than 50% of our meal...........I did answer "The food arrived Lukewarm,"The Head Waiter / Manager responded by saying, he'd have a word with the Chef (what does that even mean?) Perhaps a more professional response would be to insist the meals be taken away, offered an immediate replacement, a different choice, a complimentary drink or meal voucher. You might not be surprised I said "Its too late" ...........I couldn't stomach another 40 mins of incompetence.One of the serving staff was wandering about with Jogging bottoms and a tracksuit top on???The original couple who we were seated next too at the non Covid safe distance table adjacent were replaced by another couple 30 mins later. £38 for what can only be described as a miserable event, an abismal culinary experience, consisting of incompetent service at an exceptional level and no attempt by the Manager when taking our payment to recover the situation (when he knew about our grievance) Not even an apology!!!!I have visited the Aggrah over the years from way back in the day, when they had a small enterprise in Shipley, Commercial Street and to witness its demise to such a degree that we can say hand on heart, we have had much better experiences at what would be considered low end Curry establishments. It must, and should be a concern.So much so i'm hoping a copy of this review is seen by the MD

My boyfriend ordered a chicken masala which was ok but I got a chicken Korma and it was horrible. There was no flavour, the sauce looked curdled, the chicken was tough and definitely tasted like it had been reheated. The nan isn all fairness was nice but that's it. Throughly disappointing I could have just made a better curry myself with a sauce from a jar.

The food is pretty average overall. We had popadoms, three starters (chicken tikka, sheek kebab and onion bhaji), a chicken tikka masala, rice, chips, chapati, naan and two cokes. With the 40% discount, it came to around £30 which was fine but doubt we’ll return for the full price as it’s not worth it for the quality of food.The venue is nice but you can’t really see much of the canal and there was little social distancing going on. Staff are friendly and helpful though, so that’s a plus.Overall very average. Don’t go expecting to be wowed!

Having been a big fan of the Aagrah most of my life I am disappointed with what is is these days! I have had a few poor experiences but due to what it was keep giving it another try...but I think I'm done! Dined last week and they were reusing the same tables over and over again - during covid?! Whilst I understand smaller places do what they can I cannot possibly understand why they would do this in this day and age when they have so much capacity! We were also sat in the window which was very cold - again no reason for this so a strange choice. The food was OK at best, especially for the price tag and the tandoori special mixed grill (once a favourite) was bland, very dry and overall poor. The most upsetting part of the visit was that the 40% on food not drinks also did not apply to poppadoms and pickle tray...not quite sure how these are drinks?! Also for the extra £8 these cost we found this beyond poor! I really don't mind paying for quality but even with the "40%" off I felt cheated! Won 't be trying again even for a proper offer! Sad times!

Food was very good, not the best naan bread or onion bhaji I have had. Delivery service was quick and included beer.

We had a takeaway of lamb madras and a chicken karai a few days ago and I can quite honestly say that it was awful. The madras had cream in it and the karai was nothing like one not even close. We have had better from morrisons. £30 and feeling like we have been ripped off. This place used to be very good too.

Booked here during pandemic, the food is really good quality and staff very helpful. Location is amazing, do not miss out if you enjoy great Asian cuisine

Food usually good, but have just collected a takeaway meal only to find once again that there is a dish missing.

At it's old premesis, this was the best restaurant in Skipton. Now it is average at best. Turned up for our booked table for 4 and had to wait 15 minutes, before being placed on a table, that could only fit 2 people on. Place was packed and I feel our table was given to some people who hadn't booked. I refused the table due to it being too small. We had to wait another 10 minutes before we got a table for for 4 people. The interior is becoming shabby. Service improved re the food. The food was bang average in quality and taste. Only exception, was the cheese and onion naan (really nice). Bill was steep for what we had and taking into account the average quality.

Absolutely love this restaurant and yet again had a fantastic meal here. Staff were really attentive and friendly and made everything feel safe with Covid measures. The food was absolutely fantastic as usual :) thank you Aagrah.

Visited here twice in 3 days. Very good standard Tandoori dishes. Friendly and helpful staff . Limited menu due to Covid but still lots of choice. Cosy restaurant with quality food.

Arrived to find the restauranr almost emty. Also a rather vile smell and noticed furnishings rather grubby. Menu pricey and waiter rather careless, unwelcoming and rude so we left spending our money elsewhere.

Honestly one of the worst meals i have ever been to absolutely ruined an evening out with friends . Had to leave the restaurant after over an hour of waiting for a curry and rice each then being told the bill we owed for 4 pints and ten poppadoms was £32 ??? Scandalous . Aagrah as a chain restaurant need to take a look at the waiters they employ , meant to be fine indan dining came across more like a greasy spoon cafe on a council estate . Avoid at all cost unless you want a meal of disappointment

Had a table booked this evening. Inattentive and rude staff with zero communication led to us leaving while waiting for our order. I waited to pay (My friends insisted we leave without paying due to the lack of communication and rudeness from the staff but that’s not on) and was astounded to find out we were charged £31 for 4 pints and 10 popadoms. The gentleman who I paid was mildly apologetic - “sorry we’re quite busy” but would it not have been courteous to advise us on the way in so we could make a conscious decision as to whether we wanted to stay and wait 1 hour + for our order ? Poor all round really.

Had four meals delivered to our holiday accommodation. All very enjoyable and would certainly order from Aagrah again.

Had a lovely two course meal as a family. Plenty of choice and the food was tasty - one of our children is quite fussy but he ate loads and is now a convert to spicy tandoori. The location is great and we were happy to have a view of the canal. Everything was very clean with lots of attention to hygiene etc.

Myself and my partner went for dinner on the 25 July.It was possibly one of the worse Indian meals I have ever had.The popadoms were soft, the waiter came by with the starters having carried them for several tables all on top of each other.I had requested a few changes to my main course, they ended up serving it to someone else who had ordered a chicken dish and were now eating a chicken and prawn dish...Then just made me another dish but not as I asked for, made comments to the waiter only to be told he would speak to the chef, it’s a waste of money, don’t bother.

We were staying over in Skipton and keen for a takeaway so initially tried ordering online, but after 20 minutes gave up on that and eventually found the phone number to call in our order. That was fine and service on collection was good. I was pleased that the order was handed over in a paper bag, so far so good. Then I got back to discover that every item came in a hard plastic container!! This is shocking in 2020 when there's barely a day goes by without some news on the global waste crisis and plastics killing the world's oceans as well as contributing to climate change. I probably won't have a takeaway from an Aagrah again.The food was pretty good btw

We were lured by the clear advertising relating to meal deals between 5:30-7pm only to be told at the end of the meal that those offers do not exist anymore because of COVID-19?! I didn’t realise the pandemic was fatal to meal deals..! If this is the case, then boards advertising such offers should not be displayed outside, it’s misleading. Food was mediocre and some items lukewarm (Naan and rice).Had to ask for cutlery to eat our main course. Would not return.

It has been a few years since my last Aagrah meal and on Sunday evening whilst staying at my mums, I decided that we would have a treat and get a takeaway from my old favourite Indian in Skipton. For years I went to the Aagrah when it was behind the unicorn hotel and have been to it since it has been at the old Waterfront, always very impressed with the quality of the food but how things have changed!! It was a telephone order and the chap on the phone was very good and helpful. Although it cost £52 for just 3 main meals and a few popadoms, I justified paying more than most places in Skipton as it was ‘the best’. Sadly not any more! The food was always very fresh with rich spices and a good balance. I worked as a chef in Michelin X restaurants so I know what I’m talking about and I have to say that the food was shocking! It was very quickly delivered which was my 1st warning sign and I could tell why. The food is almost certainly pre-made and whether on the premises or elsewear, there is nothing fresh about it. Even the pickle tray tasted bland and straight out of a jar not fresh and vibrant. We ordered a Korma for the children which was bland beyond compare, a Lamb Hydrabady (an old favourite of mine from there), a Murgh Massala Balti (Chicken in Keema sc) 2 pilau rices and the said pickles and popadoms. And the only things that tasted freshly prepared was the popadoms. So disappointed as I had bigged it up to be good. What happened Aagrah? Did you start doing things centrally and transporting the food in? Do you not realise that the standards that got you to where you were are what will keep you there? I cannot see your business continuing to grow unless you halt your alarming slide in quality of cuisine and that would be a shame and sour some very good memories eating at your establishment. I’ve had better curries from Sainsbury’s ready made deli and a damn site cheaper! VERY POOR INDEED!

We ordered a take a way last. The food was very poor, l asked for my dish to be medium to mild and all they did was add sugar the taste was awful. There is definitely something wrong here. The food is no where near as good as Shipley!!!

Not sure which one I’d prefer. This was the worst we’ve experienced from these guys yet, and we’ve had some dodgy ones. Never to be defeated we’ve always thought we’d give them, another go, several times. But that’s yer lot. Definitely won’t be coming back for more dry meat and stale poppadums at £40 a pop. Adios Agrah.

From the moment we all arrived at the restaurant all the staff were very attentive to all 8 of our party. They showed us to our table after hanging up every bodies coats, menus were already on the table ready for us to choose. All our meals were very good and served with a smile from all waiters. All of us would recommend to other visitors to Skipton

Four of us visited whilst we were in Skipton, the food is very hit or miss. My original dish (So called award winning) was extremely bland and tasteless "Aachar" (Upon complaining to the waiter this was changed for another dish, whilst this was much better in flavour it lacked attention to detail with large chunks of raw garlic) my friends experience was the same as mine.My wife ordered a Lamb dish which was good how ever my friends wife's curry was poor and over powered with coriander. Keema Nan was good the cheese and onion nan was more like a pizza carrying on the very hit or miss theme of the evening, if you like good quality consistent Indian food this is not the place to visit.

visit with my family, enjoyed the best Indian curry service was well supervised staff was very friendly cannal view was very good will visit again thanks u guys

What a excellent place to vist, nice food with friendly staff service especially restaurant manager was very poliet and friendly at reception

visit the restaurant with my family, received good staff service, food was good and served at given time, will visit again and recommend to my friends too!!!

This is the worst Asian restaurant in Skipton. Lots of microwaved dishes and rushed service. Won't return.

A family of 10 of us ate here last night for a birthday celebration. It was dia from start to finish, firstly the drinks came in dribs & drabs a few arrived then the rest scattered over another 10 to 15 minutes. The poperdoms we ordered even came before the drinks. We ordered mains only after that, they took at least an hour to come even though the restaurant was virtually empty. 3 of the dishes were served stone cold so we had to send them back to be heated. The rest of the dishes were just 'Ok' I had lamb bhuna which the Shipley Aagrah get spot on and it was awful the lamb was chewy and there was no flavour whatsoever and the rice was like packet rice. The customer service was beyond attrocious, they couldn't have cared less and even though they weren't busy every time you asked for another drink it was like you were putting them out. We must have asked for table water 5x and it never aŕrived.... We had an email offer at the start of January for 20% off food throughout Jan, we asked for the bill and surprise surprise it was full price so we had to ask for the discount to be added. They were obviously thinking we were a big party and we wouldn't notice. Apparently nothing is cooked fŕesh and it is all frozen brought in.... I cannot believe the standard of this restaurant compared to other Aagrah restaurants. Will never return.

Not the friendliest welcome. Not the best food. Expensive. You can get much better food for less money within walking distance. I don’t know if the staff were having a bad day but everything appeared to be a effort. The curry’s were greasy. Not a good experience.

Family visit on 30th December to celebrate a birthday. Started OK - drinks and starters served quite quickly - then chaos ensued. As we waited and waited for main courses we noticed people around us being served wrong dishes, food standing around on serving trolleys undelivered, and then dishes being sent back because they were incorrect and/or cold. After being in the restaurant for nearly 2 hours we STILL did not have our main courses, despite asking repeatedly about when we would be served. Finally food was brought - and, surprise! - some of it was cold! It had definitely been standing around for some time. We complained to the manager, who insisted the food was hot (when stirred!) - and he kept repeating this despite me putting stone cold dishes of rice into his hands! At no time did he acknowledge the very obvious problem, or indeed that other diners around us were now making similar complaints.

Visited on 30th Dec to celebrate a birthday. Started well with drinks and poppadoms arriving swiftly, then had our main food orders taken by possibly the least charismatic man in Yorkshire. Starters and drinks arrived in a timely manner and the starters were tasty. Unfortunately this was the peak of our experience, with things taking a turn for the worse.

What a fabulous restaurant and staff really friendly. We had the pickle tray to start then startes which were amazing and the main, I just couldn't eat it all but my husband finished it for me. I was very warm halfway through and my face was red, the waiter brought me a drink of water and said is it too hot for me, I laughed and said no but kept the water, How thoughtful, will certainlt be back when in the area.

Heard good things about this chain but we were in the main disappointed with the quality of the food. The service was good but mostly indifferent when confronted with specific requests. The poppadoms were stale and were replaced. Thankfully our party had the Christmas spirit so all was mostly forgiven. On investigation we were informed that the majority of the food was prepared in Bradford and brought over which would explain everything.

Outstanding! Called in for a meal after a hard day working at my mother’s house. I was starving. The staff are so friendly and nothing was too much trouble. The food was brilliant and we will certainly be back!

We booked and so were on the list - getting there early doors 6 ish

We arrived quite late last night due to another restaurant letting us down. I'm pleased they did. The friendly waiter took us straight to our table. He gave us menus for food and drinks straight away. We felt like royalty with all the attention we received. We didn't have to wait long for the food. Another friendly and very funny waiter brought out our food. Giving some banter he certainly made me laugh. The food was amazing. The garlic nan was huge and delicious. My husband had the Chicken achar and I had the Kingprawn achar. Both delicious. Thankyou for amazing food and amazing service guys. Keep up the good work. We'll be back next time we visit Skipton.

Nous avons diné dans ce restaurant, et avons choisis de tester différents plats pour l'occasion et ce fut un regal, découverte gustative exceptionnel et plutot spicy !

Do not have anything from here if you are vegetarian. We had a veg thali a couple of weeks ago and one of the dishes had a massive piece of lamb in.... obviously one they missed when picking it out to serve

Went last Saturday with a group of friends. Fourteen of us we booked a table for 8 o’clock. Still waiting for our table at 8.30 and not seated until about 8.45. We ordered quickly as one of our party had to leave at 9.15 to catch a train - she just ordered a starter for this reason, and had to leave before it arrived. Not good. Eventually the main courses arrived - my veg korma had a congealed skin on the top - it had clearly been sitting around for a while. Very basic selection of veg in there, zero effort had gone into making it tasty and interesting. Maybe they don’t care about their veggie customers. The accompanying paratha was inedible - tasted as though it had been brushed with rancid butter. I was really disappointed by the experience. I’ve been to other branches of Aagrah and enjoyed the meal - certainly won’t go back to this one. We were seated very near the kitchen and were aware of loud arguing and the sound of crockery being smashed, so all in all not a very relaxing meal!

Had a great evening with good friends on out first visit to Aagrah.

I’m not overly fussy about service in restaurants, but I do object to waiters leaning across me without a word to serve another diner when there was nothing to stop them walking around the table. The waiters were quite cold and distant and I certainly didn’t feel particularly welcome.

Alongside the canal in the middlr of Skipton, the Aagrah is well located. We hadnt booked and early evening on a Sunday had to wait for a table. The menu had plenty to offer and we ordered starters and maon courses. Quixotically, the main course was served at the same time as the starters meaning they sat there cooling whilst we ate the starters! The meals were OK, but only that. A Lal Maas said on the menu to be 3 chillies was in my view 2 at best.

Dit was het eerste restaurant waar ik in 1993 als Nederlander voor het eerst Indiaas heb gegeten. Sindsdien ben ik verslaafd aan deze keuken.

Went on a sat evening quite busy Food was lovely good service Indian beer on tap was great Good value for money too

We called here for a takeaway whilst on holiday on the Canal. We had poppadom starter (can't really go wrong with that) and a Chicken King Prawn Makrani and another complete meal dish that I've forgotten the name of, with a mushroom pilau and a Peshwari Naan.

I was really looking forward to dining here but my Chicken Bhuna didn’t taste anything like a Bhuna in fact it tasted exactly the same as the other three curries we ordered. My Shikh kebab was lovely but the Shami Kebab was wierd mush that tasted almost of cinnamon or something odd. The nan bread wasn’t the best I’ve had but was ok. Wouldn’t return I’m afraid

We stayed in Skipton on a canal boat and looked for a take away meal. This restaurant was excellent for a take away. the food was excellent and very tasty in that the tastes were delicate. The service was superb

After a busy day walking the Dales (22km), I just wanted a quick, filling meal and after another long hunt around Skipton town, I eventually found the Aagrah tucked away next to the canal. My first curry for several years (no Indian restaurants in Italy!!!) comprised a Methi Ghost (lamb+ spinach with fenugreek) which hit the spot completely. Probably not the cheapest but very prompt, courteous service and very tasty, Job done!

Called in a small group, booked for 07:30. Was quite busy but there seemed to be plenty of staff. Took a while to get served, waiters confused between themselves who was doing what. Eventually got drinks and and waiting what seemed an age for food. Despite other tables coming in after us. Tried the lamb kharai, wasn’t good at all. No taste, not much sauce, no vegetables just really bland. Hungry so ate it. Then took what seemed like an eternity to get the bill. The staff were like amateurs and very junior, quite rude how they collected plates and lent over you too whilst they scraped them. Better places to go, give this place a miss.

Nice surroundings and good sized portions, tasted OK but not spectacular, a bit on the expensive side.

A couple of weeks ago we had friends visit us from down south. We decided to take them to the Aagrah again as we enjoyed it last time. This time it was a little embarrassing. Curries were served in chipped dishes and the cutlery was cheap and thin. The food was excellent as always but the service was very thin on the ground. We sat near the window and could see wallpaper peeling off the wall. It may sound a little picky this review but the place needs a touch of TLC to bring it back to its best. We will be leaving it a while before we go again.

Visited Aagrah as being vegetarian you know there is a great choice of tasty vegetarian food. We had the special vegetarian starter for two which was ok, nice.

We ended up here, as it was the closest restaurant to get into from a rain and hail downpour. Service was attentive and friendly, and the food was nice, but one of the rice bowls that came was cold. It was without problem heated up, but not really what one would expect, considering the prices.
