Bengal Cottage in Harlow

We've been to the restaurant a couple of times and every time the food has been impeccable! The quality of the food on offer far exceeds other restaurants in the area and is our go to choice. The chicken balti is particularly nice. Cannot fault the staff and would highly recommend for a meal out!

I'm a curryholic.... I love the ambience and attention to detail. I have lots of reviews for numerous culinary delights. These guy's know what a BIR British Indian Restaurant audience expect.

Top service - friendly staff and absolutely AMAZING food! I enjoyed every single mouth full!! I tried their new 'Chotti' dish... OMG!!! You have to try this... so delicious!!! I never write reviews... but I was so happy with the wonderful service and high standard of the food that j just had to. Definitely will be going back.

Regular visitor to HBengal cottage 3 or 5 time a month Was good with the last owners but improved with the new owners Will see you this evening my wife will have her normal

Food was really nice would order again no problems with food service order

Very lovely food workers are nice and helpful would could recommend you to take your family

I actually have take away often, some times go, the best indian, love there onion bajees plus all else, staff always polite and helpful.

Delicious! Really tasty and a lovely delivery driver ! Thank you

Food was very nice. Staff were attentive and everything came quickly Only thing was our table was very squashed next to another table. The restaurant was also very warm inside

wouldn't order Indian anywhere else its No1 for me

My favourite Indian restaurant by far, but, now, with a new menu it is even better. Great Food , Excellent service and always a warm welcome. I highly recommend the new Fish menu. Quality.

Food was amazing. Best meal I've had in a long time. Fresh, hot and tasty.

Amazing food and excellent service. Try the Sea Bass Special. It was delicious.

Top of my list. the food is top notch along with amazing customer service. Feel like home atmosphere perfect for any occasion. Highly recommend Bengal Cottage for best indian curry and cuisines in town.

Amazing food and excellent service.We had a wonderful time. Would highly recommend.

We have been going here for years and it's always been a decent option. Recently the food has jumped up to the next level and so is certainly now one of the best in the area.

Very nice lots of favour very happy with my meal

Amazing food and very welcoming atmosphere! Staff are lovely and will definitely be back.

For long time I couldn’t eat Indian as no where was any good- found this little gem and the food and staff where lovely- will defo be back x

Sumon treated us extremely well. Very diligent and attentive. We always attend here for our Indian food, and will continue to return. Thanks again Sumon!

Sumon was nothing but brilliant, food was amazing and the heat on the madras was spot on. Been going to another local Indian restaurant for the last 20 years and this topped all expectations. Would highly recommend.

Fantastic meal. Really yummy. Great staff, lovely service. Got a lovely pen and a baileys. We will be back. Thank you Bengal Cottage

Fantastic food, service and atmosphere. Strongly recommend the Karahi Lamb, a mouth watering fusion of onions, peppers and tomatoes. They are great with gluten free options too. Brilliant Chef and team!

I'm no vegetarian but the saag paneer is worth ordering on its own. really good food

I can not recommend this restaurant highly enough. Fantastic food... service and great atmosphere... Can't wait to return...

Great food and atmosphere. The chef regularly cooks us specials and they are amazing. If you want something different, they will create a dish for you! Staff are very attentive even when busy. Brilliant restaurant!

Good quality food, ok decent price however for an £80 order no complimentary poppadoms felt a bit tight lol

My favourite local Indian restaurant. Lovely food and always great service.

Best Indian I've tried in Harlow. Great selections and great service

The best Indian in old harlow easily. Fantastic food and service. Would recommend for sure.

Food was amazing and service was perfect. Especially waiter Shumar

Great food and atmosphere, friendly staff.

Very tasty meals, very hot, delivery driver very pleasant.

Lovely food better than the raj 👍

Pretty disappointed. Only one poppadom . The lamb shashlik was well done although asked for it to be cooked soft. The dansak was more like eating a Korma, no heat to it at all. Was looking forward to a nice curry but more went in the bin that got eaten.

Went with a friend on Saturday, my 4th visit. Wonderful food & excellent service. Highly recommended. Thanks to all

I ordered a karahi lamb an got a karma instead Also I ordered coconut rice an it was not gutted

Rice , Nan bread and tikka masala very lukewarm, had to heat up in microwave, also , tikka masala portion small compared to other Indian takeaways 🤷🏻‍♀️

First time in this restaurant, pleasantly surprised, good food and service in nice surroundings.

The restaurant was clean and staff polite . Food was nice but found a couple of dishes such as cauliflower bhaji not so good . The most disappointing thing about the restaurant was the space every time someone walk behind you they kept knocking your chair and I found that quite annoying when I’m trying to eat.

eaten from here for 13yrs it's THE VERY BEST !

Not like Bengal Cottage, but very late and cold food due to lateness

Food really good and tasty. It was good that the food came early. The driver was helpful and very friendly

Wonderful taste. Highly recommended 👌

Excellent service. Excellent food.

Visiting from up North. Fantastic curry for the 2 of us. Ejji in particular was very personable. If ever on Harlow again, we will be revisiting.

Delicious fresh flavours as always

Love this place; our perfect date night adventure. Food is always excellent f and staff are wonderful. Cannot reccomend enough

lovely takeaway meal and delicious. delivered a bit earlier then timeslot said but that was even better as was getting hungry.

Lovely food, tasty and nicely prepared, though one of the main courses had less meat than I would usually expect.

Excellent! Perfect temperature and lovely quality! Will definitely be ordering again!

Even though a tree had come down on the road and blocked it. The driver managed to find another route. Above and beyond the call of duty. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Great tasty food as usual and very friendly delivery Thank you

Food freezing cold despite collecting at the time I was told to - poppadoms stale for 3rd time

Worst curry I have ever had! The chicken tikka pasandee curry sauce was watery and just tasted of grated coconut and sugar. Chicken was hard too. Dreadful. The sag aloo was bad also, partial cooked potatoes and runny sauce. Awful! It didn’t help that it arrived nearly cold and heating it up made it more runny. What a total waste of money as it went into bin 😡

The food was great we really enjoyed it and will be ordering agen

Great tasting food. Thank you.

Had many meals here both as a couple and a group. The food and service is always brilliant. Also had Christmas lunch here this year, absolutely superb. Many thanks.

Waiter was absolutely amazing tonight Know josh and daisy xx Food was was amazing x Atmosphere was lovely xx Highly recommend x

Had my company work do there the other night and we have been going here for a while. I can’t express how great the service and food is. Never have a problem and even if I did I’m sure the guys at Bengal Cottage would be more than happy to help. Rashid especially looks after me every time I’m there. I was back in there tonight it’s that good. See you all again soon lads. Thanks, from Chris

Fab food and brilliant service. Will be back

Lovely food, Sumon was a great waiter.

Very Good, I had my office doo there. Staff were attentive and effective even though there was 23 of us and merryment was afoot

Went last night for a lazy Monday dinner The service and the food was amazing the chef really knows how to cook up a storm it was beautiful And they were so kind to make a smaller portion of curry to take home for my mum And a big thanks to Sumon Will definitely be returning. Thank you so much

We have visited a few times and each time say how lovely the food is and how good the service is. Would always recommend bengal for an Indian in old Harlow. Sumon our waiter was as lovely as always!

Fabulous takeout from Bengal Cottage tonight. Highly recommend it.

Food is fantastic and staff are amazing i definitely recommend 👍🏻

We went on Monday night for the 1st time and I am so glad we did. I cannot believe I haven’t tried this place before the food is absolutely amazing, so fresh and tasty and most importantly authentic. The naan bread was gorgeous and the food wasn’t greasy at all. The staff were very attentive and the draft beer and wine was very nice. We have now finally after 8 years found a fantastic local Indian restaurant, we will be back!

Have ate at the restaurant, so decided to order on just eat. Arrived 30 mins late and cold, so popped it in the microwave. Not sure what caused the delay but just be aware. The food as always was excellent.

Top quality dishes at Bengal Cottage, amazing service by Sumon and the team - highly recommend!

Great staff, great food and great service their complementary sweet is awesome too. I would recommend to visit.

Full of flavour, definitely recommend.

Don't like plastic takeaway containers go back to foil please

Food was excellent, delivered slightly earlier by a very polite and cheerful delivery driver.

The food arrived cold after waiting longer than an hour for it to arrive. This is a shame as the restaurant is normally very good

We had a lovely time. Sumon was fantastic - helped us find some lovely dishes. Generous portions. Great prices. A real local gem!

Favourite place ever. The workers are so friendly and accommodating to anything. Highly recommend for a visit

First time of trying will definitely be going back , food arrived on time nice and hot definitely one of the best Indians we have had

Amazing food and very friendly staff. I would highly recommend especially the chicken tikka balti 😊👌

Gorgeous, fresh, tasty. High quality, good value. Our go to Indian

Very tasty , lovely delivery guy !

The driver was an totally inappropriate and disrespectful,

Great food, nice atmosphere and interior, helpful staff

Fantastic food and atmosphere and reasonably priced the staff can't do enough for you.. the decor is modern and most importantly spotlessly clean.. the food was delicious and will definitely be ordering takeaways from this Indian restaurant in the future.. my only regret is I didn't find it sooner..

Just had an excellent Indian meal.. the place is spotless and modern and you feel welcome and comfortable due to the attentive attitude of the staff.. it's everything you want when you sit down for a good curry the food is fresh vibrant and you can tell they know what they're doing.. I haven't wrote a restaurant review for ages but I needed to do this just to let you know you won't go wrong.. give it a try.. forget about the negatives They're over a year old the staff are amazing and you will be pleasantly surprised about the price as well..

Fool lush as always. Lovely delivery driver and right on time!

One of the best Tandoori in Harlow friendly inviting and great atmosphere, food was delicious I had the mixed Tandoori with a vegetable vindaloo which made my eyes water which is what I like, we'll be definitely coming back well done bangle Cottage

Unreal food best Indian I’ve had in a very long time! Service was amazing as usual and all needs were covered as the waiters were on the ball 24/7. Couldn’t have asked for better food and came very quickly but very hot showing it’s been freshly made. The whole venue was super clean and kept very neat and tidy . Best Indian in harlow 100% give a try if you haven’t yet!

I am a regular customer and can honestly say I have never been let down. Staff are so friendly and welcoming all the time asking for feedback. Food is excellent and I have ordered many dishes. My fave now is Pathia [Chicken] which I had never had before. I have also had a Naga so if you like hot food is worth trying as I enjoy it more than Madras. Atmosphere is always good which is why I go back often.

Brilliant restaurant with such afriendl team. They make uz feel sp welcome each and every time we go. The food is always top quality, every single visit. love these guys and their restaurant. Have recommended to all my friends and family.. will definitely be back soon. EXCEPTIONAL.

One of the best Indian meals we have had in ages. 5 stars. A must place to eat in old harlow.

My Favourite place to eat. Me and my grandparents are regulars. Couldn’t ask for better staff and the food is absolutely 10/10.

All meals were delicious and ready for us to collect right on time

Great curry, good service. Can’t go wrong here

Always good food and service at a good price

Nice food and arrived early, first time order and very impressed

Food is amazing Service excellent.

Firstly we were made very welcomed. The food was excellent and the service we received was second to none with the staff interacting with our grandchildren which was lovely. Although our first visit it certainly won't be our last. Very highly recommend and thank you for a lovely experience.

Food is excellent - always bang on. Get down there and get yourself a lovely special lamb curry. 🥘👍

YOU WILL NOT REGRET GOING TO THE COTTAGE!!! Best Indian food I have ever came across, If you are reading this make sure you go here and order the murgah masala you will not regret it. Anjeet is the main man will see to you. service in there is second to none! I would have given this place 10 stars if I could. Been eating here every Thursday for years. You cannot beat it.
