Alibaba- Coaches And Horses Pub in Cotswold - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

This quiet country Cotswolds pub is a beautiful setting for what was simply some of the best food I've ever tasted. As I live fairly locally I've been here a few times and the depth of flavour in each of the dishes I've had is simply amazing. The presentation on modern designer plates is the icing on the cake. I've been to many Indian restaurants all over the UK but this is the best. Sadly, it's now closed. I would love to find out where the chefs are now working, as I would travel some distance to enjoy their wonderful food again.

Lovely coffee served with a biscuit had a look at her history of hhe pub.. king Charles 1 stayed here and didn't pay his bill. That bill is on the wall

Staying at a local campsite & we were told that this place delivers to your pitch onsite. We had already looked into having food at the restaurant as it was a pub and you can take your dog, but decided to try the delivery option as it was free delivery. The app / website was a bit clunky to use and didn’t correspond to the paper menu on-site and some dishes didn’t have a description of what they were. Also the app asked for a road name despite it finding the campsite. After negotiating a frustrating ordering process we opted to share a meal deal for 1 as portions are usually generous. We were very happy with the food that arrived before the time estimate too directly to our pitch. The quality was excellent and the flavours were delicious. We had lots of dips with the popadoms , the mixed meal starter was tasty and we were impressed with the quality & taste of the lamb. Our main meal was lovely as was the aloo gobi & naam bread. Definitely recommend this place, but please improve your app.

Stayed here in our camper van whilst visiting Bourton on water. Had read the reviews so had high expectations and was not disappointed the food was to die for so full of flavour we had chicken dansak and the Indian lamb shank both were perfect

As locals we eat here when we are able and have never been disappointed. Always great service for all the staff and really tasty meals. Came this evening with some friends from Essex for a birthday meal and everyone went home really happy! This place deserves to be much busier - thank you all!

Went to this restaurant based on reviews, a little walk out of Brouton and you have a wonderful little cosy setting. Food was lovely and the hosts were very welcoming and service quick. Would definitely recommend to others visiting the area.

We ordered take aways from this establishment and were not disappointed. Delivered well within time, piping hot and well presented. Excellent and varied choice of dishes - perhaps hard to choose. Each meal was as it should be and the Menu is well presented so you know what the ingredients are. Both chicken and lamb dishes use excellent quality meats and great spicing. We will return in the summer!

This is the 2nd takeaway in a week, great food delivered on time, piping hot and great value for money. The best I have ever tasted.

One of the best Indian meal I've ever had. Lovely restaurant with simple and very clean decor and table linens. Menu has some dishes on that are different to the standard Indian restaurant offer which is great. We had a mixed kebab and green chicken thigh tikka both of which were melt in the mouth delicious. Pickle tray with poppadoms had unusual and very tasty options. Mains for js were lamb shank and lamb roshuni which were top quality. Very good service and a complementary drink at the end of the meal. We stayed in our motorhome in the car park overnight. Excellent place, we will be back.

It made instant impression on entry. Spotlessly clean and bright. Good atmosphere and decor. White linen tablecloths. Tables well spaced out. Prompt service. Really good menu. The poppadoms came with the best aray of spices I have ever encountered . The main courses were so good that we sent our cmpliments to the chef. Service fast and attentive without being intrusive. We had real ale with our meal.It was evidently well looked after. We were happy to tell the manager we think is the best Indian restaurant in Bourton on the water.

Whilst staying in Bourton on the water we decided to try a takeaway, we ordered online which was one of the easiest systems I have ever used. The food arrived in well under the hour and was piping hot, all nicely stored in foil containers. We went for Lamb Roshuni which was well spiced, but not hot and the lamb just melted in your mouth. Chicken Shashlik, the chicken was tender and the peppers, onions and tomatoes all cooked perfectly. To go with the two mains we had Aloo Channa which was really good, nice soft potatoes and chick peas all in a lightly spiced sauce. A nice and garlicky Nan bread, Poppadoms and Pilau rice. Delicious food, great delivery. First class customer service.

We came across this curry house which is a converted old pub. I wouldn’t come here just for a standard English with drinks. All our food was really fresh, tasty and the service was great. We’ve parked a motorhome overnight for free in the car park and thoroughly enjoyed our food and drink particularly the complimentary drink at the end of the meal! We had so much food we took some with us.

Really enjoyed our visit . One of the best Indians I've had. Place was very clean . Service was good and the food was very tasty and fresh. Would definitely return.

I cannot comment on the food as we went in lunchtime and they do not serve any food. Expected more of a pub instead of walking in to a big perspex screen covering the bar and drinks and staff hidden behind it…ok they sold Cobra on draft which is good but the place has no ambiance at all as character non existent. Watching one of the waiters strimming the outside with his trousers, white shirt and covid mask was interesting…hope he washed and changed before serving food..yeh! So, not even an average pub in my eyes and wouldn’t eat there.

We really enjoyed the two person set menu that we had here tonight. There was so much food we didn’t even go close to finishing it! Absolutely loved the appetiser - pappadums with an amazing tasty, colourful array of sauces and an onion salad. Delicious! The next course was more dipping sauces but this time with three grilled meats. The beef was a little over cooked but was tasty while the other two meats were great. Main course = perfect rice, tasty lamb balti, overly sweet chicken tikka masala, perfect naan, nice Bombay aloo and Goni sag. While the meal fell short of perfect it was very enjoyable and good value for money. Service was professional and the restaurant is a nice space to spend time in. Recommended.

We visited Alibaba Indian for the first time on a recent trip to Bourton on the water. We both like Indian food but as always when you visit a place for the first time your never quite sure what to expect. We were both very...

Really great authentic Indian food. All very good from starter till dessert. Decently priced. Friendly staff. Clean Restaurant. Just outside the village; easy accessible with own parking.

I was served a raw lamb burger and told that they couldn't offer a refund because they had no cash and didn't know how to refund on cards. Gave us a bottle of wine instead, but really felt like an awful experience.

stay far away from the steak baguette. its enough to put you off food for a week. the steak and ale pie was equally disgusting. a coke and a bottle of water cost 9.50

Had dinner here last night and the food was very good, we thought. Service a little slow because they had a large table, but no complaints. Good value and we were welcomed and treated well as customers. Worth a try.

Stopped here on way back from walking to Upper Slaughter. Nice sunny day so chose tapas for 2 and a drink. The tapas was an assembly of anchovies, olives, stuffed peppers, humous, diced butter, 2 bread rolls, 3 pittas and 3 slices of cold meat....

Always spot on been several times and always been great. Lovely dips for starters and mains are good portions too. Also a pub so good for a beer too

We have had several really nice meals here,however the last takeaway was not very good. Chicken Korma absolutely tasteless with watery sauce Chicken Tikka very tough chicken Spinach dish however was lovely Hope this was just a one off and food returns to its best

This establishment is without doubt the finest Indian Restaurant I have ever visited. It's hard not to wax lyrical over every aspect of our visit. We found the Alibaba at 9am when asking if we could park to go for a walk nearby. We came...

Exceptional service and great tasting food! The paneer tikka in particular was amazing. Thank you for a great evening.

We visited on Saturday 12th February. Restaurant was pleasantly busy but still plenty of space between the tables. Service was excellent, and food was equally excellent. I have a decent appetite so rarely leave anything but I ended up taking half the food home in...

Lovely welcome from the staff and really nice food. The menu had some different options which were really tasty and beautifully presented. The king prawn puri, Persian lamb and lime pickle were particularly favourites. The staff were also really pleasant. I’d recommend. The only thing...

Everything about our evening was superb. We were warmly welcomed, the service was excellent and the food fantastic. Would highly recommend a visit.

Our expectations were high after reading the great reviews about Alibaba Restaurant which is in the Coach and Horses Pub and we were not disappointed. The menu was extensive, such a great choice and the food was absolutely wonderful but in our opinion what was...

When talking to a local resident we asked about great places to eat that night, Sunday, she suggested this place as it is where a lot of locals eat. She was not wrong It was easy to book a table and when we arrived we...

We stopped at this Pub/Indian Restaurant for lunch one day during our holiday. A stranger combination I have yet to come across however, we ordered our drinks and asked if they were still serving lunch to be told they were and were given menus. I...

I knew Bourton would be touristy, but the pubs were so uncomfortably packed when I hiked in that I just bought some milk from a shop, drank it sitting on the green with the throng, and couldn't escape this beautiful hell hole fast enough. I...

Visited for our first time whilst on holiday. Received a warm welcome from friendly staff. Food was excellent, chosen from a menu with a good selection of chef's specials and out of the usual dishes beautifully presented . Attentive service from the lovely waiters and...

Had a wonderful meal, large portions and beautiful presentation of food. Extensive menu, attentive and friendly staff.

We had passed this place when out on a tour in Moreton in the Marsh and decided to check it out. Well I so glad we did, the food was fabulous, the staff really helpful and polite and the price amazing value for money! If...

Excellent food, excellent service and amazing value for money, will return soon. A gem of an Indian, hidden in the Cotswolds..

Excellent food and excellent service..one of the best Indian restaurants we have eaten in. the staff were friendly and the manager/owner was very attentive. Unbelievable value for money..

We have been twice rently.Very clean .Staff extremely polite excellent service and the food was very good no comments at all .

We enjoyed a very tasty meal involving popadoms and pickles (more pickles choice than your usual Indian restaurant), starter, main course, rice and nans. Everything tasted good and the 3 staff in the restaurant were all very friendly. The place was busy, especially for a...

Stopped in for lunch thinking it was a pub, and really glad we did. No lunch menu so ordered a few starters instead. Everything ordered was beautifully fresh, wonderfully tasting and looked like a picture on thr plate. So glad we stopped.

We had a pleasant takeaway dinner while staying in Bourton. The dishes were much as expected and portions very generous. The naan bread suffered during our hike back into town and we had to revive it in the oven. We had a short wait for...

We managed to squeeze a last minute booking for a table for two into a very busy restaurant and we were not disappointed. We both had the Thali which tasted incredible, simply divine. The service was friendly and sufficiently attentive.

Excellent food, wonderful service. I'd highly recommend. We had lamb entrees that were tender and uniquely spiced.

Had an Indian meal here on the 3rd of September 2021. Great selection of food on offer.we had pompadoms with a selection of chutneys to start. As a main we had chicken jalfrezi, chicken madras,lemon rice,lime rice keema nan and chips. All were cooked to...

Thank you to the amazing staff! What a lovely place and dishes cooked to perfection! Must admit that the food exceeded our expectations and the service was brilliant. Super friendly and polite. Do recommend this hidden gem!

Really delicious food, nice dining environment and good service. Well worth the walk out of the centre of Bourton.

We stopped here to break a long journey. The food was good and service excellent. The indoor restaurant looked very nice but, because of Covid, we preferred to eat outside and the staff were happy to serve us there. However the outdoor area, especially the...

Delicious food, lovely service, relaxed atmosphere. Can’t fault this restaurant. Just sorry we didn’t have any cash to leave a tip!

Booked a table for 16 people as a three generation birthday celebration. The staff were helpful and attentive. The food was absolutely delicious. I had eaten here once before and was highly impressed and our second visit with family did not disappoint. Food was fresh,...

There was a party of 12 of us, 6 adults, 6 kids. Staff were really friendly. Food was amazing! We all said it was the best curry / Indian we’ve ever had! Good price too

This pub only serves Indian food, which for a typical looking English pub in the Cotswolds is surprising. Having said that, we ordered some starters as we did not fancy a full curry each and they were delicious. We had some samosas and chicken tikka...

I was a little dubious about eating here after having read the reviews but must confess that our party of 4 really enjoyed the meal here. The staff were very nice and helpful, the starters and main meal were very tasty, we were too full...

Owner was super friendly. We ordered biryani, one of the chef’s specials and Nan bread which were all excellent. Much tastier than usual. A couple of side dishes were more ordinary. Nice bright restaurant room with small pub bar next door. Would recommend.

Vsited the Coach and Horses after walking and thought we could have a drink. Found the staff unfriendly and was very shocked to pay £1.75 for a small packet of crisps.

Food was absolutely delicious with a larger selection available. Phoned for a takeaway delivery order, and was quoted maximum of an hour delivery. However, after an hour and 20 minutes we had to contact them again asking where our order was. We were told there...

I ordered a take away which took nearly 2 hours to arrive. However, I really did not mind this too much as I understand Saturday night is a busy time. On the ordering form I specifically requested the curry dish to be medium spicy and...

Lovely food but no covid precautions in place. No track and trace. Waiters all bar 1, wearing masks under their chins. Hacking coughing coming from the kitchen. We felt as unsafe/ uncomfortable as we ever have throughout the pandemic.

The staff here are so nice and caring ! The service here is the best I’ve ever had Would! recommend!!!

Lovely food. Good selection of dishes to choose from. Went with the recommendation from the house and was not disappointed . Presentation of the food was a nice touch too. First time out of lockdown, So booked a table , just in case. Had 62...

We met up here with some friends after lockdown restrictions were lifted, mainly because of the convenient location. But now we know how amazing the food is, we'll definitely be back. A couple of us went for special dishes we'd never heard of, and they...

the last time we visited Bourton on the Water, 3 years ago the Coach and Horses was a pub with several stables that had been converted to comfortable accommodation where we stayed. when we visited again in October 2020 we had to find other accommodation!...

Great service, very extensive menu and gorgeous food. They also accommodated our dog. Highly recommend

I ordered from here and was not disapointed. Although i live a few miles away the food arrived still hot. It was the best curry i have had in a long time. The menu is quite extensive so there is a selection to fit every...

I lived in Bourton On The Water a few years ago so this was my local pub for food & drinks & served amazing traditional pub food but visited yesterday and I've never experienced such a rude barman, no hello as I walked up to...

The food great and very quick service enjoyed the meals and the wine was reasonably priced they need more practise with the liquor coffees far to sweet and the sugar left in the bottom of the glasses was off putting but they did give us...

Decided to try and not disappointed at all, open on Monday's which is unusual so a real bonus. Very large selection of dishes available and hard to know what to choose, several south India based options which are not always available.

Out walking with my partner and 3 dogs around Bourton today and came across the pub on route. Didn't look great from the outside but we spotted another couple having a drink outside so thought we would stop for a drink in the sun. On...

Just got back to our hotel after visiting this gem of a surprise. Looks like a typical country pub but the Indian restaurant inside was fab. We were met by very welcoming and friendly staff and given a menu that made my eyes hurt. Great...

We stopped at the Coach and Horses for lunch, as we have been before when in the area, and found that it had changed to an Indian restaurant. This was the best Indian meal we have ever had, the food was so full of flavour,...

We enjoyed an excellent evening here at The Coach & Horses. The indian restaurant was lovely and the staff very welcoming and friendly. The food was of excellent quality and a menu boasting loads of choice, certainly something for everyone. We will most definitely return...

What a find! Gorgeous food and attentive staff. Dog friendly too. Definitely going back before the end of our holiday. Open every day despite what it says above. Exceptional value for money.

Avoid Coach and Horse restaurant at all cost. The waiter was rude, and when we tried to get help with the menu his response was he didn't have time to explain. Alarm bells started ringing , but still went ahead and ordered a beer, glass...

Excellent curry in nice restaurant with friendly staff. Chef has some adventurous dishes and pulled ours off, as well as serving all the usual dishes you’d expect in a curry house. Accommodating for small children.

Thoroughly enjoyed our meal last night. They serve a great selection of chutneys with the poppadoms, some I’ve never tried before which was lovely. Portions are huge and felt awful leaving some food (couldn’t take it home as was staying in a local hotel). The...

We walked to this restaurant from our Bed and breakfast and what a find! It’s a lovely Indian restaurant, delicious food and a great choice on the menu. The staff were friendly and attentive well worth a visit as we would highly recommend- thanks

We very much enjoyed our visit. The food was excellent with generous portions. We wished we had room for dessert! Service was friendly and suitably attentive. The complimentary drinks at the end of the meal was a very nice touch.

We were staying nearby and were a little sick of English pub food. Alibaba did not disappoint. There was a huge variety of food, which kept the vegetarians in our group happy. Delicious. Recommend.

What a find! This is an excellent and authentic Indian restaurant. Great food, generous servings and very good service.

This place is fantastic. The staff our amazing, the building is light and airy, but the real difference is the food. I have never seen Indian food served in such a delightful way! Tastes great, good portions and great value. Can’t ask for anything else!

Fantastic food! Really tasty & great sauces, all very different. It was especially wonderful to have fresh vegetables rather than frozen ones. We asked if they could make us a vegetable version of a chicken dish & they were happy to do this. They even...

This is a gem of a place! The food was so delicious and plentiful, I had to take a doggy bag home. The staff were very friendly and went over and above to ensure we had a great experience, we even had a complimentary drink!...

let me start by saying i'm not a big fan of indian food. have been here a few times for sunday lunch roast dinners which were quite nice. but took some family there who are big fans of indian food. these people are really trying....

We had a takeaway from here as COVID restrictionins were lifted. Really delicious food, good distancing, would recommend

Arrived at the coach & horses, the meal was fantastic the portions were generous even had a doggy bag to take home, the staff were so helpful and even let us stay overnight in our motor home On the car park, pub stopovers list this...

I'm not a connoisseur of Indian food but I do know good food when I eat it. Had now 4 takeaways during lockdown and can honestly say its consistently good food. So heres the dishes I can recommend Sag Bhaji. Not like a normal bhaji,...

3 of us went here on Sunday Lunchtime, having heard good things about it, we booked a table for 1.30 and thank goodness we did the place was heaving. We were given a nice table in the window, the staff were very attentive and polite,...

Had previously had mixed reviews but decided to go and see for ourselves, had a lovely meal the restaurant was packed food was excellent, and nice to see some different choices rather than just the usual. Service was great, also got a complimentary drink.

Myself and my partner visited here for Valentine’s Day. The food was so delicious and huge amounts of food for a very good price point (korma £9 and rice £2.95) Only down side was 4 popadoms were £5.80 as the starter, which I feel was...

Ordered for delivery. Very friendly on the phone as well as the driver. Food was excellent and mine was very spicy which was exactly what I was after!

Been here a few times and is now our go to Indian in the village. The restaurant is lovely and the staff are very helpful and always there if you need something. They cater for big parties which is great. I would say although the...

My partner and I have just had a great evening here. The food is very good and the service matches it. I would highly recommend you go and enjoy a great meal here.

Great find . We stumbled across the Alibaba on a walk from Bourton to the Slaughters . Food and service was excellent would highly recommend.

Didn't realise that the Coach and Horses was now an Indian restaurant, however this turned out to be a pleasant surprise. The staff couldn't have been more attentive and friendly, the food was of a high standard, nicely presented and full of colour and flavour....

Fantastic to find an Indian restaurant which allows dogs in the bar area. Staff really friendly and attentive. Food amazing and very well presented. Would recommend a visit if in the area.

Went in the pub not realising it was an Indian restaurant as it still looks like a very traditional British pub from the outside. What a great surprise! Very attentive waiter and the food was absolutely delicious. Lovely atmosphere and good price. Highly recommend.

Excellent good value food but appalling service. Pint of lager spilled on me, with no apology until the manager finally became aware and agreed to knock some money off the bill. Starters came before finished poppadoms. Main course delivered before starter plates removed but we...

Hebben daar geborreld en gegeten en was echt toppy met een uitstekende bediening en zijn zelfs nog heel leuk uitgezwaaid....dus...

Went here for Sunday lunch Was very apprehensive being as it’s a Indian restaurant. But the roast dinner was excellent !! Roast beef & Roast Turkey carvery all served with freshly cooked vegetables & all the trimmings! The best roast we have had in years...

Looking for a bite to eat and a place to work for a couple of hours. Was surprised that it wasn’t a traditional pub but what an amazing and accommodating place. Made an off menu light meal which was superb. Will be back.

I can’t rate this place highly enough, the service was first class and the food was great. We were a large group of 10 without a booking and they rearranged the tables and made us feel really welcome. All I wish is that I lived...
