Bangla lounge in Kirklees

Very nice restaurant, polite staff and excellent food. Highly recommended.

Another five star ***** meal at Bangla Lounge, Birstall! Top quality food, service and ambience. You really cannot go wrong here - there is something for everyone and you can ask the chefs to cater for your heat tolerance! Try the Abdul Specials which may not be on the menu but are amongst the best curries I have ever had.

Fantastic food and service! The atmosphere was cozy, and the staff was so welcoming. Perfect for casual dining or a celebratory evening. I can’t wait to return!

Ask for the Abdul Special if you like spice

Highly recommend this restaurant, if you love a bit of spice ask for an Abdul special, not on the menu, but the owners own recipe, and probably the nicest curry I've ever had. Fantastic value for money!

Amazing meal for my husband 40th. Thanks for all the things you did to make it memorable.

Been coming to Bangla for over 6 years ! Honestly, hands down, the best quality curry I’ve ever had. Also excellent value for money. Whether it’s takeaway or eating in the restaurant the food and service is always amazing !

Great food, reasonably priced, good friendly staff and great service

We normally go on a Wednesday which can be quieter but the welcome is always the same both food and staff excellent

10/10 Authentic Bangladeshi Cuisine, Fish Balti, Duck Speciality and King Prawn Bhuna. Also the Daal was exceptionally tasty. Staff were attentive and friendly. Decor has privacy for comfortable dining. We came for our Anniversary, left with great memories, thank you.

Family gathering. Great service very friendly. Food great. Thank you for a great evening

Delicious food 😋 great service 😋 highly recommended 👌

Went here with family for my 30th after have a bad experience with Newabs some of my family members were put off curry cuisine. But bangla did not disappoint everyone had an amazing meal, quote " the best butter chicken I have ever had" I am a regular but I wanted to says thank you for delivering amazing quality once again.

Fantastic family meal (30th Birthday celebrations) Service was 100%, time management fantastic, customer service excellent. A fabulous place to eat, ambience perfect. All staff were amazing, couldn't have asked for better. Well worth the 40 minute journey. Plan on returning.

Loved everything from start to finish. Really friendly staff, from entering to leaving. We had great service. The food was fantastic , freshly made & red hot. My chicken dopiaza was the best I have had in a long time. All of our party were very happy with their choices & wouldn't have changed a thing. Enjoyed it so much, we have booked to go again with the family.

I was away from home and needed to eat, i decided to eat at Bangla Lounge nearby to where i had been and found everything about Bangla Restaurant was excellent and would recommend to anyone to enjoy perfectly cooked food. The starter was very nice, clean restaurant and very good value for money.

Been coming here for 10 years, always great food and service. I would highly recommend.

Abdul and to all his lovely staff,a massive thank you for bringing my taste buds alive,fantastic food as always

Amazingly tasty and authentic food, lovely and friendly staff, and a lovely place, what's not to love!

Great service. Amazing food highly recommended

My first visit, I called in for a takeaway. Madras was so hot I couldn't eat it, and I'm half Sri Lankan and used to hot curries. Just raw heat with no flavour behind it. Also the chapati had bits of raw chopped vegetables on it, which led me to look at their food hygiene rating which is only 3. My first and last visit.

Been quiet a few times over the years. Food was good recently, however we got extras on our bill. So suggest you get a bill and check it before you pay.

Our food was gorgeous tonight service 100% will order takeaway and go again

Nice food, good service. Enjoyed our meal

What an absolutely amazing night at the Bangla. Food, staff, everything. Best night ever

Great food and great service, can't fault it.

Very nice curry, great service. Take your own alcohol Edit: another visit, why can't I give the place 6 stars? Bloomin fantastic, again and again and again.

We have ordered from Bangla quite a few times for a take out. The staff are always friendly over the phone and it usually arrives within the hour which is great. The past few times we have ordered, we have requested the curries to be extra spicy. The flavours are all there but unfortunately there's no spice to it. I get the chicken tikka garlic balti and asked if this could be done extra spicy but even the kids tasted it and said it was mild. The spinach and cheese starter is amazing and would definitely recommend. We unfortunately won't be ordering from here next time as despite the curries tasting nice it just doesn't have that kick to it.

Positives: The food quality was good. The staff were friendly, gave us a warm welcome, and spent a lot of time chatting with my friend about the restaurant and food. The restaurant itself was clean, and linen tablecloths and napkins were present indicating fine-dining. Small customer parking area, and on-street parking nearby Negatives: I checked the Bangla Lounge website for pricing before reserving a table. The prices on their website (and linked to on TripAdvisor) were reasonable - VERY different from the actual prices. For example, Chicken or Lamb Harialy was £7.50 online, but £12 in the restaurant... and the website price was NOT the takeaway menu. In the UK, it is illegal for customers not to see a restaurant menu BEFORE they are seated. I dined with a friend, and here was my order (website and actual prices): Onion bhaji: £2.95 -> £4.50 Chicken tikka Korai £7.25 -> £10.50 Peshwari nan: £2.75 -> £3.75 Total bill according to their website: £12.95 Actual bill: £18.75! For this reason only, I have given the Bangla Lounge 3 stars. My friend was NOT concerned with the price hike, and wanted to give Bangla 5 stars. We ordered water, which arrived in a large bottle. This was not topped-up when empty. Other: We received a bill which included "Basmati rice"... a dish we neither ordered nor received. However, we had chapattis, and these were not on the bill. They don't have a licence to sell alcohol, so take your own. My friend was happy and will return. I will not return purely because I can't justify the high price.

Nice restaurant, great service, lovely food Great choice of food from the menu You can take your own alcohol as they are unlicensed

Fabulous food, great staff and always a warm welcome. Glenn & Jill

Amazing food, staff were very attentive, were very accommodating to our children too. Really enjoyable experience and gave me pickle that I as craving too 😊

After reading good reviews about this place we thought we’d give it a try, and traveled an hour from North Yorkshire to find the real deal. From the welcome as soon as we entered to the excellent food and service, we were totally impressed. The starters and mains were very tasty and cooked to perfection. IMO this is one of the best Asian restaurants around. We’d recommend it.

Brilliant food and service noisy on night spoilt evening a bit

It's always a really great experience here. We went on a Friday evening and although there were some tables, as it's very popular I'd recommend booking, just to be safe. I think you have to judge everywhere on each occasion and the quality has always been high eating in here, last night however was next level. Service was really great and attentive throughout and we had poppadom's and water shortly after sitting down. It's great you can bring your own alcohol here too. Starters were freshly cooked, tasty and crispy (Fish, and Spinach Pakoras) and the mains of Lamb Jalfrezi were just incredible - really tasty, balanced and a nice spicy kick which never overpowered the flavour: a real skill. If you're feeling braver, just chop up the chilli served on top and mix it in. This place has recently won the Bangladeshi Restaurant of the Year at The Nation's Curry Awards 2023 and on this showing you really cannot deny that. Our bill was brought without asking, and we paid without asking too, which did feel like a bit like we were 'on our way' but rather that than waiting around to get someone's attention when you're ready to go. A fantastic experience.

Oh wow! So nice and tasty, just really good flavours. Had chicken biryani and garlic chilli chicken. We ordered the takeaway to Morley and it was delivered hot, within half an hour and just probably the best takeaway curry we've ever had! Can't wait to dine in!

Warm welcome, nice decor, classy tableware etc, friendly staff, vibrant atmos (prob due to the byob!) Delish food, piping hot & a good variety. Sundries were top tier. Poppadoms, pickle tray, naan, chapati, salad side plate -- all the little things like that were great and they can often make or break it for a dining experience. Will definitely be back soon!

Delicious food, super friendly staff, amazing service. Would absolutely recommend. Looking forward to going back.

Wow like absolutely beautiful food the flavours outstanding.. the service amazing

Usually order takeaway from here. We will dine in eventually! The food is very very good. I haven’t found a better curry place in the area yet! Always arrives hot and on time and the menu selection is amazing. I’m a boring Korma girl but there are a few dishes on the menu that I will be trying.

Just when I think they can’t get better they do the meal tonight was superb!

Good food, friendly service, a bit noisy though

Fab restaurant,really lovely staff & the food is faultless ! Our favourite place to eat!

Everything was excellent as always.

My expectation was very high for this place it was highly recommended, but it wasn't anything special

Staff were all lovely, came for a birthday meal of 20 and they got the whole order correct. Restaurant was stunning and food was brilliant. Would definitely come again and recommend to all. Thankyou to all the staff

Had a delivery from Bangla tonight and the food and service was superb, as ever. Everything was still hot, and deeelicious! Thank you

My favourite place for a curry!!! I love coming here as Abdul and his team are so helpful and friendly and you can take you're own alcohol!

I’ve known Abdul for some time now and been to the bangla number of times. This time I’ve taken family for my wife’s 40th and can say that Abdul and his staff did us proud! His service was on point and the food out of this world! Thankyou mate see you next time. It’s a ten from len!!

Probably nicest Indian I have had in a while , very very nice would highly recommend, never been in always order out but very quick delivery , reasonable price and a very large selection of dishes , always happy to accommodate e.g. we get just korma sauce as like a side and it's no issue , portion sizes are good and meat is nice.

gorgeous food great service good prices never disappointed every dish has there own twist to it and its lovely

Not the most authentic, rather pricey, they is better out there, sorry i wont be attending again

First time here after hearing some good things. Bright and lively atmosphere. Food was delicious with a subtle twist on your standard curry. Service was excellent despite being a busy Saturday night. Bring your own alcohol so great value for money.

Fabulous food, beautiful restaurant and lovely staff💖

Starters very nice, salad fresh ,popadoms crunchy , mains very nice and freshly made, staff very attentive and friendly would recommend and will visit again in the future thanks

I’ve been a frequent visitor to the Bangla for a couple of years now , and as a regular traveller across the Uk for business I’m fortunate enough to try many places and the Bangla is right up there with the best. Everything from the standard of food, the cleanliness, staff, and proprietor Abdul are all faultless. 5* keep up the great work!

another lovely meal it's a bring your own booze restaurant and the quality of the food is really good well worth a visit best curry house in the area

Just had a take out. Disgusting. I was impressed with the chicken and the veg then boom rubbish. Swimming in oil. Chips cold and greasy. Chappatti cold Poppadom soft and not crispy. Mango chutney like water. Chicken pakora dry and horrible. I would give a wide birth. Never mind supporting for an award.

Portions were really small not worth the money

Banging as always. Amazing staff beautiful food. No wonder your finalists in the national awards . Well earned and well done too all. 👏 🤞🤞 good luck lads

Travelled up from Birmingham (the home of the Balti) to have a night with the family. We had a wonderful meal from poppadoms to starters to main! All 4 of us had different dishes off the menu and everyone was so flavoursome. Abdul was very accommodating and made us feel so welcome. The atmosphere had a real buzz, and the price will definitely bring us back!! Birmingham has a Bangladeshi rival! Thank you Abdul and team Gerry

Never had a bad meal here, absolutely loved my korma and my husband enjoyed his balti. Best food around and friendly staff

I visited the Bangla on Sat 21st Jan with a group of family and friends to celebrate my birthday. We go every year at this time as its a great way to get people together to celebrate my birthday, friendship and the start a new year. Abdul was the host with the most and looked after our table along with the other staff who were friendly and courteous. The meals were delicious, as ever and the atmosphere was brilliant. To top the end of the night off I was presented with a scrumptious birthday cake, with a sparkler candle and a rendition of a birthday song. The cake was huge and fed us all easily Thank you Abdul and the Bangla for helping to make my celebrations Special

Went for a meal here last night and have to say this place is amazing ! Food was very very good, friendly staff and great prices it’s a must visit !

Went here for a birthday recently. The service was brilliant and the food was incredible. Its only small so would recommend booking to avoid disappointment. Its also unlicensed, so you can bring your own alcohol which keeps the price down! Can't wait to go back!

Immaculately clean, wonderful attentive service, excellent quality food and very reasonable prices. Highly recommended.

Lovely restaurant with very helpful staff. Food prepared fresh. Abdul makes sure you get the dish cooked the way you like it.

First class restaurant, great service great food

Fabulous food and service. Prices reasonable for such good quality food

Excellent meal for new years eve

Not sure what’s happening with the Bangla lounge at the moment… I wonder if they have a new chef cos the curries tonight were horrible.. tasted my sons korma it’s vile he didn’t eat it and I don’t blame him it was inedible.. the past couple of curries we have had have not been as good as it use to be but thought we would give it another go tonight but I won’t be ordering again from here now. I will give my custom to a different place. The prices have shot up too by a lot it cost 30 pounds for 2 curries and rice and chapatti.. if I could have rated 0 I would have

Best place for a curry in the area, whether sitting in or taking out

Great food, great service and great value.

Good evening, I dined in on a previous Friday night with my partner. The food was amazing, (chicken tikka garlic) was mega!. Unfortunately I was being aware of the gentleman with glasses hearing and witnessing him shouting and being informal with his staffs, I found it such a-shame whilst they looked after me very presentably through out the full night, looking forward for Abdul returning, it will bring the positive energy back to the ambiance.

We would highly recommend the Bangla. Tastefully decorated with lights that change colour which adds to the atmosphere. Food was excellent and staff were very friendly and attentive. BYO also. Definitely will.visit again when next in the area.

The food here is amazing every time I visit which is at least once or twice a month. It's smart and spotlessly clean with white linen. Abdul and the team are always welcoming and attentive. I missed my Bangla night out in the midst of...

Not a regular curry eater myself but took a group of friends from New Zealand for a meal here Sept 14th. Abdul suggested a mild dish for me and my friends - curry experts ! - had a varied selection of starters and mains, all...

We held a surprise birthday family & friends gathering here, they did excellent, food from start to finish was excellent, staff very friendly and prompt, well done to kitchen staff too, highly recommended, thank you again..

We held a family & friends birthday surprise gathering, the preparation was of a high standard, the staff were very friendly & prompt, food was excellent and plenty full, thanks to the kitchen staff too, highly recommended.

Àmazing food and amazing service

We had a mixed starter for two, excellent value and very tasty. I had a tandoori king prawn dish, the flavours are exceptional. My husband had a chicken harialy and the levels of flavour were amazing.

The owner and his staff could not have made us feel more welcome. Their professionalism and work efficiency was outstanding. The restaurant had a beautiful décor and the ambiance made it. The food was the best I have had in a long time and I will return and use their takeaway facilities. It could not be any better all round. Anybody coming to Bangla will not be disappointed. I went on recommendation and will recommend to all myself. Thank you again for a wonderful night.

Great food and atmosphere,take your own alcohol is a massive bonus.

Absolutely fantastic. The food was amazing. Brilliant atmosphere and the staff were just so lovely. Our second visit but it certainly won't be our last.

I'm thinking if the takeway was great, dinning in must be even better. Great food. friendly staff see you soon

Nice friendly people, amazing food. Cozy decor. Highly recommended. Made special dish on request. It was amazing. Was looking for my home food and found here.

Great food and very friendly service.

Our favourite Indian takeaway! Always tastes great, you can tell the ingredients are high quality and fresh

Have been twice now, second time last weekend. Food is lovely, service impeccable. I like the BYOB factor too. Huge variety of dishes which may be a 'red flag' in some restaurants but not in an Indian. They're happy to make variations of the menu...

Went here for the first time with friends tonight. Lovely decor and well spaced booths at the top which was very comfortable for 4 persons. BYO as no alcohol on sale. Ordered quickly. Food was tasty, prices certainly good value. Service was friendly and efficient....

As usual, great food and great service. Always a pleasure to eat here. Authentic South Asian cuisine cooked to perfection. Well done, Abdul and your team!

Ours was a take away on Saturday. Late coming, my meal a chicken tikka masala was just like a tin of tomato sauce poured over. Clumpy rice, cold hard garlic nann (with no garlic). All the meal was cold.

Our first visit to Bangala and we were nt dissapointed. The setting and atmosphere is perfect and sets the scene for an authentic asian meal. The mix starter was superb and the monkfish curry cooked to perfection. Being un licensed you can bring your own...

Great food, good atmosphere and friendly staff.

I’ve been coming here for years and it’s always good food and service. Unusual dishes on the menu along with familiar favourites, less greasy food than other asian restaurants. The spinach pakoras and paneer cheese starters are particularly delicious and I’d recommend all the traditional...

This restaurant is a real gem the most amazing food the curries are exceptional also the staff are so friendly and professional Definitely would recommend to anyone who enjoys fresh amazing food 5 🌟

A good neighbourhood Indian restaurant in Birstall. Food is good and staff are very helpful. Good value for money and pleasant surroundings.

Been here many times. Food is always great, as is service. Highly recommended.
