Chutney Joe's Cambridge in South Cambridgeshire

Curry was nice and spicy, really lived up unlike some take outs, very pleased

Nice Restaurants, good Service, no long waiting and the Food ist good. Nice for kids too

Another shout out for Mahumdal. Very attentive, polite and helpful, a credit to the restaurant. The restaurant is comfortable, with lighting which is neither too bright or too dark, music is Indian but again not too loud. (I love authentic music in a restaurant) The food was excellent. Poppadoms as other have said are fresh and crispy, that's always a good sign. I had a mixed grill which was a sensible size and very, very tasty, Saag bhaji, and naan bread. I enjoyed it all immensely, so broke my normal ruke and enjoyed a pistachio Kulfi. Everything was perfect. Finally decided to try a masala chai. I'm a convert to the chai. I will be back, I work regularly in the are so looking forward to my next visit.

All food was fresh and tasty. Great job guys.

Food as always was delicious. Love the sag aloo.

Buen servicio y comida encantadora, disfrutamos de mi cena. Si estás cerca de este lugar, vale la pena venir. Tomé un curry precioso y una cerveza.

La comida era muy sabrosa y caliente. El servicio era excelente, el personal no podía hacer lo suficiente para nosotros. El restaurante era precioso y limpio y ordenado.

Too expensive for a casual takeaway, prices maybe ok for in restaurant eating

The atmosphere is strange, the second time i go there and my table is the only one occupied. But the food is really good and the portions are well served. Didn't really like the cheese naan bread, but other than that 5*

Brillantemente dirigido casa de curry situado en Cambourne. La comida es brillante y el personal / servicio es aún mejor. Kingfisher en calado es, con diferencia, la mejor pinta que he tenido en el área local. Entre el grupo en el que vamos hemos probado la mayoría del menú y nadie se ha quejado ni una sola vez. ¡Vale la pena visitarlo!

Great food, very nice people. We were staying at the Holiday Inn 5 min walk away.

Nos alojamos en el Holiday Inn cercano, leer acerca de Chutney Joe's. Habíamos estado preguntando sobre la cocina india, y CJs encantados estaban cerca (a poca distancia) del hotel. ¡Qué regalo cenar aquí fue muy recomendable! El servicio era bueno, la comida era genial, y los precios eran justos. ¡Disfruten!

Had a great dinner, very tasty and fresh, lots of veggie options. Very friendly staff.

Delicious authentic tasting fresh food. My son loved the keema naan, and my daughter and I loved the vegetable biriani. Everything was piping hot and yummy, it’s a 10/10 from us.

Lovely food whether it’s eat in or take away. Food delivered hot !! And before the scheduled time ! Always friendly and polite staff.

Cabello largo en pollo tikka, ver foto. Estaba en salsa definitivamente no la mía. Demasiado rizado, largo y de color equivocado. La comida llegó rápido, así que obviamente se recalentó no fresco. Así que el arroz muy robusto y el pollo habían precocido y luego recalentado el sabor y la consistencia.

Cost me £32 for chicken tikka, inion bhaji, rice and garlic naanFound long hair in it which completely put me off eating it the rest of it. Rice stodgy. Chicken dry. What a waste of money. Normally very good, but will not be using them again. Took photos of hair to show its too long and curly for mine and wrong colour. Also they said it would be half hour but turned up 5 minutes later so obviously not freshly cooked

I had Mahmudul as my waiter he was polite and attentive. I ordered chicken 🐔 Madras and pillar rice 🍚 with a keema naan & plain Popadoms. To drink I had an Ice cold glass of Coca-Cola with lemon 🍋 The curry was nice although the portions look small it ended up being just the right size for me and the rice was cooked perfectly. The poppadoms were fresh and crisp,Not oily like some restaurants & the accompanying dips where nice & fresh. To finish I had a Double Espresso which was dark, thick and strong, just what I need after my meal. ( They have a good looking dessert menu,I passed on desert coz I was too full ) For the Indian Beer lovers they had Kingfisher draft on tap & who doesn't like a Pint of Kingfisher with their Curry. 🍺 😁. (Other beers available) For the spirit lovers 🥃 they had all sorts of good stuff to drink behind the bar! 😀 I've included some photos of the interior of the restaurant & the bar. If you liked my review or my photos leave me a thumbs up 👍🏻😎

Previously ordered from other 2 restaurants in Bourn and Papworth but can truly say these guys offer same good quality food but far superior service & value. Excellent.

Would definitely go back if I'm ever in the area again.

Delicious curry as always and friendly staff. Highly recommend.

Absolutely delicious food! I had the chicken tikka balti and.my husband had a Nepalese dish. Both were tasty and served quickly. We had 2 poppadoms, 2 main meals, rice and naan, a drink each and the bill was £42, which was great value for money. Would definitely recommend

Really enjoyed my food thank you

Lovely, friendly staff. The food was delicious and good portion sizes. Really good value for money, wouldn’t hesitate recommending or revisiting

It is with regret that I must bring to your attention several shortcomings in the dining experience I recently had. Firstly, the absence of chutney, which we had to specifically request, was a notable oversight. The calamari, when consumed, gave the impression of consuming an undernourished squid. Lacking in substance and flavour, the Duck Tikka, unfortunately, was devoid of any discernible taste, leaving much to be desired. Furthermore, the portion of rice provided was insufficient for two individuals to share comfortably. The cheese naan, upon examination, contained a negligible amount of cheese, falling short of expectations. Despite these disappointments, the Coca-Cola provided was satisfactory.

Excellent food, prompt friendly service.

Food was fairly bland. Lal Bagh in nearby Bourn is much, much better. Food is excellent, classy decor, waiters are well dressed. Everything that Chutney Joe's isn't.

Food and service always excellent when I've been, friendly staff and kingfisher on tap. Brilliant :)

This restaurant is excellent. The staff are friendly and most importantly the food is fantastic! As good, if not better than any other local Indian. I reguarly have take aways and occasionally eat in. I can't recommend enough, the people of Cambourne should use this even more than they do now.

I travel a lot around the UK with work & enjoy a curry, Chutney Joes in probably the best I've tasted. 10/10 every time. Very tasty & fresh

Food is always freshly prepared and hot when ordering a takeaway.

Very nice people and beautiful food great price.

The whole experience from start to finish was absolutely amazing. I booked my reservation online and they quickly confirmed. I am a wheelchair user and they was so accommodating for me. They got the door for me when I arrived and had a table ready that my chair could wheel right up to. All the staff was so polite and kind. The food was absolutely gorgeous! One of the best Indian meals I have had. The atmosphere was peaceful, with slight music in the background which nicely complemented the evening. Was just an amazing night out. Thank you very much for your hospitality. Will definitely be going back for more special occasions.

Spotted this place near to the hotel we were staying on (Holiday Inn Express). AS there wasn't much choice elsewhere thought we'd give it a go and we weren't disappointed. Service was cheery and attentive. Food was top notch and served very quickly. Overall a very nice meal and would highly recommend a visit.

The food was superb, service perfect... Will definitely be returning here

We ordered as follows, poppodoms with chutneys, onion bhaji, chicken tikka jalfrezi, chicken kachi biryani, puri, and some drinks. The poppadoms were fresh and crunchy, and the chutneys were decent. The onion bhajis were nice and tasted fresh. Chicken tikka jalfrezi lacked flavour and was super spicy, but spice without flavour is not enjoyable. The chicken kachi biryani was not true to its name. The chicken was dry, flavourless, and tasted old, and the rice itself was super greasy. The puri was nice but a bit too oily.

Excellent but for a loud group on an adjacent table.

Chick Pea starter was really tasty - smoky and flavourful, but the main disappointed, just a bit lacking in flavour. Service is quick and prices aren't bad.

Stayed in the Belfry hotel , so decided to go here for a curry. The curry was tasty but was quite expensive. The wine was £9.50 a glass and tasted like cleaning fluid. Friendly staff , good size restaurant.

After spent 30£, it feels haven't eat at all.

Just collected a takeaway from here. Very enjoyable, I’m feeling lucky to have a good Indian takeaway in my own village. Recommended… Forgot to take a picture , sorry.

I have been dining at the restaurant for many years, the quality and service always excellent. Highly recommended.

Very impolite waiter don't give you the time to choose what to order so he can get back to his conversation with his friends Then when I ask for a lager, he bring’s it with a half of foam. The dishes were very small and expensive. I was so disappointed about all that so I told him my discontent and he just tried to argue and be even more impolite. I would not recommend this place to anyone

I found my meal to taste quite unique. Sometimes they can be a bit Samey. I had lamb achari. Just the right level of heat, bags of flavour and the lamb was tender. Also the best peshwari naan I’ve ever had (and I’ve had a lot). I wasn’t keen on the pickle tray - far too bitter and not very sweet. Other than that, service was spot on and food was excellent. I’ll be back next time.

I recommend coming here for reasonably authentic food. Although the food may have similar spicing that makes the dishes all taste alike, it is nevertheless an enjoyable restaurant with plenty of room to seat a larger family.

Was away for business and this was a local restaurant. Food and service was absolutely phenomenal! I cannot believe how amazing the food was! Ended up here 2 nights in a row. Both staff and food were much better than I could have asked for.

We ordered dinner to takeaway via the App. Food was on time and when I went to collect, the restaurant was empty. The food was hot when I got it home. BUT there were a few issues. The most common being chicken in all 3 curries was very dry. The portion size of the chips was very small. I personally had a Chicken Tikka Ceylon and despite the chicken being dry, the ceylon sauce was very watery and made my rice look like it was sitting in a puddle. The flavour was good in all meals but a little milder than I am used to. I probably wouldn't order from here again and have deleted my Chutney Joe account and the app. The price is high for the quality of the food. Portion size is pretty small too. Maybe I was unlucky? £56 for 3 curries, 2 rice, 2 naan breads 2 poppadoms and 1 portion of chips.

Good Food speaks for itself. Spicy Good speaks volumes. And regardless of your taste buds, ensure to try the nearest Indian restaurant when next you enter a new town. I dined at this one. Good food. Great Service.

Ordered many times before but the last was a bit disappointing. The naan bread was stone cold, rice containers under filled. Saag aloo only contained a couple of potatoes. Chicken was dry. Definitely wouldn’t order chips again, for nearly £3 a tiny portion. Taste wise it was nice but not good value for money, it was like they were short on ingredients.

Expensive for what it is offering. For those of you who are looking for a nice place and don't care about money, I should say all of their foods taste really really good. However, keep in mind that you have to pay for each piece of a normal Indian food separately. Rice, Naan, sides, etc all cost you almost more than the main food.

Disappointed really, appearances are great but that is about the only positive I have for my experience. For 2 soft drinks, 1 curry, samosas, rice and naan it was £55 which we though was a little pricey for what we got. The rice alone, plain boiled rice was £3.50 and a tiny portion! Normally I would expect this to be complimentary with a curry order. Everything was too sweet and was muted in flavour, very bland which is something you don't normally find at an Indian restaurant. While I still had a lovely evening out I don't think I will be returning for an unsatisfying meal again.

On the off chance as curry lovers we went to chutney Joe's. Wow best curry I have had in a very long time I would highly recommend.

In cambourne , the Indian restaurant “chutney joes" exudes an atmosphere of elegance and sophistication. From the moment you step inside, you are greeted with a warm welcome from the attentive and courteous staff. The interior decor is chic and modern, with rich hues of red and gold creating a luxurious ambiance. The soft lighting adds to the cozy and intimate feel of the restaurant, making it the perfect place for a special occasion or a romantic dinner. But what really sets Chutney Joes apart is its exceptional cuisine. The menu is an exciting blend of traditional Indian dishes with a modern twist, all made using the freshest ingredients and spices. The flavors are bold and robust, with each dish showcasing the depth and complexity of Indian cooking. The appetizers are a must-try, with the crispy samosas and succulent tandoori chicken skewers being standout dishes. For the main course, the lamb rogan josh and butter chicken are absolute must-haves. The flavors are perfectly balanced and the meat is cooked to perfection, making every bite a true delight. The dessert menu is just as impressive, with the delicate rose and cardamom flavored kulfi and the creamy mango lassi being the perfect way to end a fabulous meal. Overall, Chutney joes is a fine dining experience that is not to be missed. From the elegant decor to the exceptional cuisine, this Indian restaurant is truly a gem. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, and the attention to detail is evident in every aspect of the dining experience. If you are looking for an unforgettable dining experience, Chutney joes is the place to be.

I had a nice look at the menu and after a good half hour I ordered a nice naan bread. The staff were very good 👍👍 anyway I had a nibble and my stomach hurted 🥴 so I didnt get anymore. The naan is very good as always lads 😁. However the naan left a bad impression in my toilet lol 😂 but hope to come back soon for more of that good stuff 🍞 🍛

Stayed at the Belfry hotel and came across this little gem - lovely ambience and the food is so delicious. I had Chicken Rogan and my mum had butter chicken. Very attentive - just disappointed they charged 80p per poppadom as these weren’t even listed on the menu but offered to us when we sat down. We’ve never been charged for poppadoms before anywhere else. This was the only let down as we couldn’t fault the service or food. Price was more on the expensive side but the quality was great.

Had mutton biriyani Excellent food and nice ambience Friendly staff

beautiful food and lovely people!! well looked after throughout the entire meal.

All dishes made with love, thx for the wonderful evening. Quality matters, not quantity.

Visiting Cambridge, staying at Belfry. One of the best jalfrezis I've ever had, flavoursome, spicy, and not too oily. Rest of family thoroughly enjoyed too. Friendly and attentive staff. Go for it.

We were recently staying at the Cambridge Belfry hotel and rather than drive in, or pay for a taxi into the City Centre I opted to reserve table at this restaurant which is just a few minutes walk away. The welcome was warm, food was great, and the service was also great. I was a bit surprised that it wasnt busier - it was about half full. Its a little gem.

How can it be almost £40.00 for two curries, two breads, one rice & one chips ???? And then the portions sizes are child size ??!!!! Avoid if you are hungry and don't want to pay 5 star restaurant prices for a takeaway !!!

Stayed for business in a very nearby Hotel which had very limited dining options so delighted that reception recommended this Indian. Chutney Joes do not have much competition in this area with only a few restaurants of any kind around but they have not taken this as permission to slack on service. However selection was extensive, well served and more importantly very good. Would not hesitate to recommend. Two of us ate starters and main courses, and as experienced curry fans we were happy. Reasonable prices and a great beverage selection. My thanks to the owners and staff from an Irish based curry lover suffering from a lack of good Indian restaurants in my area.

There aren't many choices in Cambourne for an evening meal so it's reassuring that this place is good for food. We returned the next evening for another meal as we all enjoyed our food. Curry sauces were flavoursome. I had Duck Masala and next evening Chicken Pasanda and both were excellent.

I went to order today online and said sorry we are not doing delivery’s I order all the time from there and have no problem I rang them up and said they don’t take orders over phone do it online told them I have tryed 3 times and said they will get someone to ring me back in 30-45 mins to order then will take another 45- an hour for food y ain’t they taking orders over phone they were rude and had to go else where I couldn’t collect and all they said was collect it I am really annoyed this is 3rd time they have been rode on the phone does anyone else have this do people ring and make an order and do they take it as they wouldn’t from me and I spend lot of money when I do order? Also I had order last week from them was amazing I am not saying there food isn’t good as it is but I must of by accident put a 1 star review they phoned me this week and asked y I put a 1 star review I said I am sorry it must of been an accident and then when I make an order again I get all this tonight do u think that’s a coincidence?

I found this lovely restaurant in Cambourne on Monday 3rd October. I’m always wary going into a restaurant alone but the staff made me feel comfortable and were very attentive. The menu has plenty of choices and the food tasted amazing. Definitely a little gem of a find. Thank you

For £11.20 and this is the portion. 8 pieces of lamb is ABSOLUTE ATROCIOUS. Ridiculous small portion of curry. Look at it 🤯🙄😠 SHOCKING. If there were -5 for scoring, I would've input it on my reviews so I had to go with the lowest scoring. And that's being generous.

Very disappointed small portions bad service. Had jalfreez 5 pieces of chicken 2 pieces of green pepper 2 slice o onions 1 tomatoe .2pomperdom 1/2 lager £27 not worth it .People of Camborne wake up Chef stands out back looking dirty check Out for your self never again go to hills road Cambridge

Absolutely delicious food and excellent service

What a lovely curry house, fantastic service and gorgeous food. Highly recommend the lamb as it just melted in our mouths. Was staying locally and stubbled across this curry house, so pleased we did.

Our toddler loved the korma, the rice and the nan! Thank you. My wife had a panak also great. And I had some spicy chicken with curry. Loved it.

Came in on the hottest night of the year (40 degrees outside) and it was great to be in the air conditioning. Great menu with lots of interesting dishes, as well as the standard Indian ones. Staff were friendly and attentive, food came quickly and was very good.

In the area for a couple of days and not sure where to eat. This restaurant is really nice and the food was great. I had butter chicken and my husband had lamb dopiaza. Both dishes were very good. Service was great although it was a bit quiet when we went. Will definitely return when we are next down here.

A good selection of dishes here - Nepalese and house specialties, all very tasty. Definitely worth a visit. Second visit there and it's still just as good.

Was staying locally and fancied something more interesting than the hotel could offer. Had a lovely meal - the food and service was really good. The restaurant was a little empty, so I couldn't say the atmosphere was buzzing - but that's hardly their fault. Not cheap - but far from expensive - and entirely good value for the quality and quantity.

Popped in on a weds night as the pub stopped serving food at 7.45(?!). Friendly service and really tasty food. Had 4 vegetarian plates and some rice to share. Exceptional

We were so pleased this restaurant was open on a quiet Monday evening in Cambourne. Just round the corner from the Holiday Inn Express and an easy walk. Tasty food, interesting menu options, attentive staff.

Impolite waiters, bad experience🤦🏿‍♀️

Went here a few times with work lot, and also got takeaway. Also good service and very accomodation for dietary requirements, in my case vegetarian. Often when we went we would be the only ones there so could be a bit awkward initially i felt....

We won’t be returning here ever. The food was left by all who ordered. Everyone complained of the same thing. Bland and tasteless. Not authentic at all. Hiked prices. Korma had 3 pieces of lamb in it. Everyone left a plate full.

Have eaten here several times in the past. Had table booked for 6.30. Waited one hour for main meal. Should have walked out and gone to chip shop. But was assured food was on its way. One dish was luke warm, very small portion of...

Delicious Indian food with huge portions and a lot of meat! The garlic and chilli chicken is a work of art! Also the atmosphere is nice! Top restaurant in the heart of Cambourne! Strongly recommend! Must visit!

Prompt friendly service. Food excellent- Kulcha Nan tasty and texture just right. Biryani and Hyderabadi Karai very good too

Very welcoming and great food xx

I have had many many many Indian meals, but this was probably the best. It was fresh, not smothered in sauce and cooked perfectly.

Staff were good, quick service, not the usual Indian food. clean and tidy with nice atmosphere nothing is perfect and we would probably go again if in the area.

We went in to try it and yes the food was reasonable. Saying that if I was in the area again I would still consider going back. service was good, menu had the usual favorites plus some not so well known dishes.

Delicious food and very welcoming staff. Excellent, recommend.

Very disappointed with take away. Sauce watery and tasteless for a medium to hot curry. We would have been far better off getting a supermarket curry for a fraction of the cost!

Good service and a friendly place, but was not overly impressed with the food. It wasnt bad, the meat was a little overdone and a bit on the dry side. Certainly nothing to write home about but not bad enough to complain. One dish was...

Had a really nice meal here tonight. Lovely food and very attentive waiter (Abir). Starters, mains and a cheeky kulfi were very tasty. Would recommend.

A lovely meal for my husbands birthday. Friendly staff, amazing food. Staying at local hotel. Would recommend to anyone staying near by

Good service and very nice food. Would have loved to have a space to sit outside.

There were not many diners there when we visited which may be why we received excellent service and excellent food. (Lots of people were there just to collect take-aways). There's something extra good about the food coming hot and quick from the ovens, and we...

Decided to try Chutney Joe's by a friends recommendation. Probably the nicest Curry I've ever had (Chicken Dansak), as well as the Lamb Samosa's, not to mention how amazing the Peshwari naan is. So full of flavour and delivered hot both times I've purchased. On the note of delivery service, I was pleasently surprised by an automated phone call when the driver was near by so that you can be ready to answer the door & you receive a text as the driver is setting off, which I appreciate. Live tracking might be the only other possible improvement to this experience, but nothing something I personally care for. Portions are on the smaller side especially in comparisson to other Indian takeaways, so if you want to feel full then definitely need to buy extras (Breads, Samosa's etc and not just a Curry).

ChutneyJoe are awesome. Lovely food, and so friendly, too. Upon request they've made us salt free and sugar free version, so our toddler can enjoy it too! And it still tasted so good, all freshly cooked from scratch. Thank you!

Such good food From Chutney Joe, Cambourne! Always decent sizes and friendly staff!!

Just spent £13.95 on a king prawn dish and received the tiniest portion I have ever seen! I actually laughed!! I’m so disappointed and the prawns are definitely not kind prawns, just regular and tiny.

Food very poor, lamb was chewy and inedible, rice portion tiny and keema naan with virtually no meat, very poor value for money and not even hot. The only thing that worked well was ordering online and payment but way too much money for what...

Had a takeaway for the whole family this evening, ordered online to be delivered, website was easy to follow and order, delivered very quick, meal was still hot, food was fantastic, would definitely recommend.
