Curry Inn in Mid Sussex

Terrible and rude service. Didn’t manage to order food in a timely manner so left. Staff not attentive at all. Never will return.

First visit tried the special it was ok meal overall average would i go again probably not reasonable priced onion bargis were very poor On the plus side staff wete very good

Did not dine here but had a takeaway, never had a takeaway from this curry place but it was well worth it, good size portions with lots of flavour, not to expensive compared to some in the town, definitely will be buying from this curry restaurant in the future.

Best curry house in HH. Delicious flavours

Really good food, friendly staff and so reasonably priced. Best in local area in my opinion. Definitely recommend.

V conveniently situated and curry v tasty, owner friendly and welcoming.

Love the Curry Inn, delicious food, wonderful staff and reasonably priced. Never fails to please.

We booked a table last minute and quite late in the evening! The staff was happy to help, friendly and they have all delivered a great customer service. Kudos to the chef for cooking such delicious dishes. Onion baaji were done to perfection, crispy and light. Curry was beautiful and it will take you on a journey of flavours. I must admit we were a bit greedy with ordering the food, but the staff was happy to pack what was left as a take away and now we enjoyed their food on our lazy Sunday !!!! Thank you very much for everything and for delivering such a great food and customer service that late in the evening! Definitely coming back soon xx.

To expensive they should do deals like balti house Wednesday deal for example of starter main side and rice or naan for X. Food was ok but to expensive given quality. Small portions Also they used to do taste card 2 for 1but have stopped. Not worth it unless on a deal

Delicious food, friendly service.

The day before, I booked a table for one for 6 pm for 23 Jan 2024. So, I went to the CURRY INN restaurant ontime. The restaurant was closed then; so I waited till 6.10 pm before leaving it, as it might not open at all or much later. What a waste of time and irresponsibility of the restaurant.

Consistently great food, quick hot delivery and really friendly team - it’s our go to place in Haywards Heath. They’re also one of the only places that, if you ask for spicy hot dishes, put some proper heat in them!

Great food served at reasonable prices.

Never disappoints! If we are wanting an Indian, we always try to get it from Curry Inn the last couple of years knowing this place, despite it taking us a 1 hour round trip living on the South Downs just outside Brighton. Originally introduced by family living close by in Hayward’s Heath, lucky them. The quality is amazing, price is very good and overall, one of the best Indians in Sussex. Well worth the drive to collect. Thank you Curry inn 5 stars all round !!

Firstly Waiter smelt of BO. Didn’t seem to understand his role of serving and clearing tables . Very rushed service Restaurant very cold (no heating) decor drab. Carpet seen better says . Toilet smells of damp. Overall not pleasant environment to eat in . Wouldn’t visit the restaurant again but would order take a way as food good. If you want a good restaurant experience I wouldn’t recommend it.

Always good food here when we do our annual visit . Staff helpful and friendly.

Ordered dinner to collect from here, was able to choose from your typical list of dishes with little out of the ordinary and was ready to collect bang on time. It was also still hot when we got it home which is always a good sign. The Dhansak hit all the right notes and had a great kick to it. The vegetable korma was creamy and the sauce was thick, the vegetables were a bit mushy and the whole affair could have used a sprinkle of freshness. The onion bhajis were crispy and deliciously seasoned, some of the best I’ve had outside of my local. The garlic naan was a bit of an oddity, it was more like a plain naan with garlic butter on top- haven’t seen one served like this before. It was tasty enough but sadly wasn’t either crispy or particularly fluffy inside. Overall I think this is a perfectly fair enough spot for a takeaway if you’re in the area, but not somewhere I’d be rushing back to.

brilliant staff and excellent service. and love the food.

I think this place could be better, it has potential, staff are friendly but the food wasn't great. Chicken vindaloo was bland instead of flavoursome. The mixed starter had plenty of flavour but wasn't tasty, and there was no king prawn. Will try again but maybe the chef needs to taste his dishes.

Nice food and very friendly service. Will visit again.

The best in the area by a mile!

Unfortunately didn’t have an opportunity to take pictures at the restaurant. Visited on a Sunday evening and had a fantastic experience. Very friendly and welcoming staff, delicious meals and lovely atmosphere. Highly recommend papadoms, lamb hali ali and all of the vegan sides. No one will be disappointed! Reasonably priced as well, which is an added benefit!

I have had two takeaways and have to say on both occasions the food has been delicious. Starters, mains, and sides all cooked perfectly have nothing negative to say nice and friendly welcome when collecting and very easy to order on line. Will definitely be going back again.

I ordered the set meal for four for delivery to Newick. The food arrived promptly and was an excellent selection. As one of our group required gluten free the containers were all very helpfully clearly marked. The food was delicious and although there were actually six of us there was more than enough. Will certainly order from the Curry Inn again.

Order 30 minutes ago and already at the door piping hot. Everything tasted fresh as can be, amazing portion sizes especially for the price. 10/10 couldn’t recommend more, thank you for the lovely dinner

First visit here for over a year and it was just as good as before. Decent value and bigger portions than other curry houses in Haywards Heath and no complaints over the quality. Still our favourite in town

I'm writing this review to warn others about the owner of The Curry Inn. My uncle, who is elderly and not very mobile, used to be a regular customer at this restaurant. He would often dine in or get takeaways, and he was always very generous with his tips. However, he had one bad experience with a takeaway order. My uncle left an honest and frank review on Google Maps, stating that he was disappointed with his experience. The owner of the restaurant called my uncle and aggressively told him that he was banned from attending the restaurant. This is a ridiculous and unfair decision. My uncle is a loyal customer who has been spending his hard-earned money at this restaurant for years. He simply expressed his disappointment with his last experience, and he should not be punished for that. This incident makes a mockery of the review system. Customers should be able to leave honest feedback without fear of reprisal. I would urge anyone considering eating at The Curry Inn to think twice. The owner is clearly unprofessional and vindictive, and you could end up being banned for simply expressing your opinion.

The worst curry that I have tried. We have options in Haywards Heath. Agra and Nizam are top shelf. Curry Inn is appalling.

Have had 2 or 3 takeaways, reliable Anglo/Indian type of food, fair price/quality. Recommended. Thank you to their team.

Friday night curry with friends, good service and food came quick. Prawn purée to start tasty but could have been hotter. Main event again came quickly but not hot enough in taste ( went for a 2 chill one) and temperature.

I'm a regular customer of the Curry Inn. I ordered a take away last night. The Chicken Dansak had been reheated and was inedible. I felt like I was eating string and after 2 mouthfuls I couldn't eat anymore. It is a shame as the food is normally v good, apart from Sunday evenings when I've noticed the food is not up to standard. I suspect that the Chef has a night off on Sundays. I would like a refund

I ordered a takeaway last night I am a regular customer. The chickeb dansak had been reheated and tasted like string. I could not eat it, and put it in the bin. Such a shame, as the food is normally very good

Revolting food, greasy & tasteless. Ordered online takeaway ceylon & dhansak both tasted the same & full of chewy slimy chicken

Ok meal but nothing special, very flat and dull atmosphere

We ate here today ( Mothering Sunday ) and it was such a huge disappointment. We were a table of 6 and the only people eating . The waiter was dressed in jeans and a sweatshirt and his shoes needed a clean , not what you would expect from a restaurant. We all ordered poppadum and chutneys , the dish of chutneys was very small and they charged an extra £1 per person for this ( even though only two of us used the chutney ? ) all of the food was the same colour ( red ) and everything was covered in copious amounts of onion . The king prawn starter was on a stick , it didn’t even resemble a prawn in any way and it was also covered in the same red paste and totally smothered in onions . This was supposed to be a nice Mothering Sunday lunch for my mother but in reality it was awful , I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone . The decor is shabby and uninviting . They advertise in their window that they serve a Sunday banquet but that’s not true ....apparently this stopped during lockdown ....so why are they stating that they do a meal deal for a reasonable price when in reality they are charging over the top prices for dreadful food ?

I'd been at Xmas fot a group 'do' so when wanting a quick, reasonably priced curry near the station this the obvious choice. My partner has sagaloo with dahl yhat her Italian neophyte's palate liked and my Dhansak and plain rice was tasty and filling. Not haute cuisine but tasty and I'll be back.

First timer. The taste took me back the 80's when I first started eating Indian curry. The gravy/base is proper traditional/olskool, which makes all their dishes yummy.

Recently moved in to the area. This place was recommended and rightly so. Excellent value and taste.

Excellent curries and friendly staff. Unlike too many curry houses nowadays, this place has a fantastic range of different and unique dishes. Highly recommended.

Great takeaway. Prompt delivery

WOW!! What a curry! Everything was great. Huge chunks of chicken, plenty of flavour, great naan and very reasonably priced too. Spot on, best in Haywards Heath.

We rocked up on a Saturday evening and it was absolutely rammed but the owner kindly accommodated a table for us after a short wait. The service was very efficient and the food was one of the best I’ve tasted. Definitely better than Nizam and a lot cheaper too. We had the chicken tikka Jalfrezi and a very tasty prawn dish I forget the name of. Will definitely return!

The 5th of November. Wet, chilly and windy. Our food was delivered to our house by a cheerful and polite young man. He had had to walk a long way because of road closures in Lindfield. The food was excellent, really delicious. Thank you.

Finally, a takeaway curry where the chicken doesn't have the texture or rubber. Great flavourful curry dishes and the poppadoms were decent too!

Food always lovely been here 3 times in the last couple of months

Don't expect gourmet - it's your traditional "british curry house" but it does that very well.

Basic Indian and I have definitely had better.

Always visit curry inn when we stay at Hayward heath,have to say doesn’t look inviting from outside but make sure you go in, Staff very friendly,couldn’t ask for more also food brilliant Many thanks Pete & Jane Innes

There seems to be a large number of curry houses in Haywards Heath, most of them in recent years have dropped in quality. The Curry Inn however is our go to for takeaways these days. Great flavours, a nice variety of dishes and a great owner who does some great charity work too. I would highly recommend

A very odd taste. Like a Chinese curry sort of flavour. Not what I expected. As a Indian food critic I can say that the dhansak I had wasn’t traditional with no sweet and sour taste and very few lentils. Mutter paneer means paneer with peas - mine had no peas at all and was in a very very sweet korma like masala with other mixed veg. Not very nice at all. Naan was good. Sorry guys - poor. I would not recommend.

Always has a good meal here and its reasonably priced too.

I’ve visited this restaurant 3 or 4 times a year for as long as I can remember. The food is always a decent quality and good value and this weeks visit was no exception. Also, very accommodating staff.

Lovely curry and friendly staff

Good food . reasenable price. Quick and good customer service. For stater mix platter is very good and tasty.we will going back again. Highly recommended .

Excellent curry one of the best. Chicken was good quality, sauce was authentic and good taste to it. Starters (Samosa and Pakora) was fresh and no greese. Service was amazing and friendly. Would definitely be here again

I've been coming to the Curry Inn for years and never been disappointed. The food is consistently excellent and the new menu has some great new choices. They are happy to make changes to a dish to suit you. The prices are good and we have always been made to feel very welcome. My favourite curry restaurant ever!

First time visiting the Curry Inn as we were previously loyal to Nizam. Nizam has gone a bit downhill recently in my opinion so tried somewhere new and we were very glad we did. Bigger portions, more reasonable prices, and good quality food. Also nice to have draft beer available. We shall return, this is out new favourite Indian in Haywards Heath

We had a very good meal at the curry inn. The team were very friendly and the food was excellent. It's a proper no frills, friendly run Indian restaurant, and was excellent value for money.

Cold food, tough lamb, samosa only had mushy potato in. Such a shame as we have been using this curry house for years. When we phoned to complain they were extremely rude. We ended up driving the food back at which point there was no apology. Really rubbish food and service. Never again.

While waiting for pick up my good food saw this brilliant idea of charity that the restaurant run Weldon guys Keep the good food as the good vibes 💝

Ordered a takeaway arrive earlier than had been advised, the food was lovely and the cost was very reasonable. Have to apologise to the delivery driver for the measly tip, I didn't have any change....so sorry

Small place but had good food. Food not so expensive. Food is worth for what you pay for.

When we first moved to HH in 2014, this was the first curry we had in the area - served by friendly Tek and his team and we have stuck with this place over the years. Food is fresh and fantastic, not at all over priced and is always tasty. Even during lockdown the take-away service was delicious - have never been able to fault it. Ask them to prepare your favorite food to the heat level you like, they will gladly oblige. Lots of flavor, lots of fresh ingredients and well worth the money.

Very nice place and an excellent curry. Good service

As always an amazing take away . Never ever had a curry from here that hasn't been perfect in every way. Would highly recommend. We always tip the driver as they are so hard working and polite.

Very good quality food for a good price.

Very nice and testy food. And staff is very friendly. Hope next Saturday we will go again. Thanks.

Simply outstanding visit.I visited the Curry Inn around a week after it reopened due to the lockdown and it was just amazing. I felt very comfortable inside due to the perfect distance between tables and procedures taken as you walk in, most notably the hand sanitiser provided upon entry and masks and visors worn by staff.as for the meal, our curry was wonderful, not a complaint to be made; extremely quick and friendly service as well as delicious food.i love this curry house and will be sure to visit again very soon.thank you so much

Beautiful dishes with lots of flavour, very helpful and welcoming staff and also very good social distancing in the restaurant.

The indian was fantastic we go here each time I fly on from usa. Great staff too.

Very nice food and friendly staff.

Been here a couple of times. On both occasions found the staff very friendly and helpful, the food very good, had the buffet this time round but still very good. Would definitely come here again.

Visited this curry house for the first time with old work colleagues and was pleased to find a great welcome and tasty food.

We visited Curry Inn as it was participating in the Meerkat Meals promotion, so I didn't expect anything too special from the experience. However, I'm pleased to say I was pleasantly surprised, as the restaurant has a nice atmosphere, the service is prompt and friendly and the food was good quality and tasty. The actual paper menu had seen better days as it was a bit dog-eared and stained, but we could choose from the full selection (no limited menu as part of the promotion) and the portions were generous. After the poppadoms, we opted for starters of vegetable samosa and lamb kebab, followed by a main course of Macher Jhol for me (which was a really well spiced, flavourful fish curry) with egg rice, plain naan and a side of saag aloo to share. If you've got room for dessert, there are some nice choices on the menu! Curry Inn is good value for money (excellent value if you've got a voucher!) and I'd definitely return!

Food was very good and exceeded my expectations. Staff were friendly and was willing to cater for my wife as she's vegetarian. Good value for money too, would definitely visit again.

Very Good food... I had different variety of Indian meals from Curry Inn.

Quite a few of my friends who visit me say they'd never go to a curry house near a railway station but I've been going here for 20+ years and I think the chef has been there perhaps as long. Maybe now it's opposite the new Waitrose my friends will think again. The manager is from Nepal and his team deliver a few Nepalese specialities as well as offering superb classic Indian cuisine. Always good service, you'd need to book at the weekends, only downside I think is it's recently been closed on Tuesdays. Staff always seem to have time to chat to the diners, which makes you feel very welcome. Highly recommended.

We had an early evening curry of chicken madras (watery sauce, no heat or even spices!), sag aloo (large chunks of potato undercooked) Dahl (chick peas too hard) and a rice (good). Service was fine but food so tasteless.

I had a takeaway from Curry Inn recently and was impressed by the Gurka's revenge curry and jeera rice. The staff very very friendly and gave a good service.

A great place for a curry with friendly and attentive service and a good selection of dishes. Very flavoursome and pack full of spices. They have Everest Lager on tap which is delightful and then Naan and Poori’s are some of the best I have ever had. Will be back for sure.

Dining in, take away or delivery - food is superb and cooked to your exact requests.

Best curry house in Haywards Heath. Lovely food and excellent service.

We live 20 miles from this restaurant but now always come here for an Indian, in spite of having 4 in our town. The food is always freshly prepared and you can really taste the difference. Whatever we order, the quality is excellent. The service is very friendly and attentive. Generally you might have to wait a bit for your food as it is freshly prepared but it's worth it. A top find.

We have enjoyed many a meal at the Curry Inn, the food is excellent, as is the service. The restaurant has recently been redecorated and the menu updated, retaining all our favourites I’m pleased to say. If you simply want excellent food, you really can’t go wrong!

This is a fantastic restaurant. We booked a table for 6 to try the new menu and we were not disappointed. Nagr and Gurka’s revenge are first class. The Everest lager is worth a try as well. Always immaculate and the staff are very friendly and polite. Highly recommended.

Good food nice staff. A friendly atmosphere

Been to the Curry Inn a couple of times now. Great meal again this time for a birthday party. Staff are attentive and friendly. The food was served nice and hot and came fairly quickly.

After staying at my mother’s house for a week, my son and I treated her to a meal here. It was a lovely meal, my son went for chicken tikka and chips; my mother had chicken tikka biryani and I had chicken masala with keema rice. We also had a plain naan, a garlic and keema naan and a chapati. A really nice meal with attentive staff.

Having tried a number of takeaways in the area I quickly settled on the Curry Inn as my go-to for Indian food. I have lost count of the number of orders I have made but I can trust that the food is good, tasty and filling, and the delivery drivers courteous. And - this may come as a surprise to some - they do not feel the need to add "fusion" ingredients such as pickled onions or cheddar cheese to make the dishes more interesting - which I've found other local takeaways have a habit of doing. As a sit-in restaurant it is close to the station and good value, and I always feel that we are warmly greeted as guests. I particularly like the Laal Mass lamb dish which is beautifully spicy, and rich and served with roasted chillis.

Curry took nearly 2 hours to arrive then was sent to my old address! When it finally arrived which felt like 5 eons they forgot my rice and the curry was so watery I could have gone for a dip in it!

Probably my worst curry ever - very good service but four of us had different curries and all of them were sickly sweet. What have they done? Desperately wanted it to be a great experience, as it is within walking distance of home.

We ordered a takeaway from the Curry Inn for the first time last month and it was truly awful, the worst Indian meal we have ever eaten . We ordered a Chicken Tikka Masala and a Chicken Rogan (pretty basic stuff) and they were both terrible. Absolutely tasteless, no spices or flavours just pieces of chicken in a watery sauce. We will definitely not be using the Curry Inn again. Shocking!

Old school look, but have always found the food excellent and service friendly and efficient. They do get very busy with takeaways at the weekend; can't fault them for that really, just shows they're popular.

Where do I start? Ordered a takeaway and it took over an hour and a half to arrive, unsurprisingly, the curry was totally cold. This wasn't the only thing. There were 6 tiny pieces of chicken in one curry and 5 pieces in the other! Barely enough for one person. The sauce was also completely tasteless and watery. Called restaurant to complain and they just insincerely said this is how they serve it. I am totally surprised they still have business.

I've had a few takeaways from here and they have always been excellent! It's easy to order and the staff are always helpful and friendly. The food quality is excellent and tasty. The meet quality is excellent as well.

Have been in here a few times usualy before heading to the Broadway for a few beers, food has allways been very good 😊

Veg dishes way too salty and meat dishes way too sweet. Prompt delivery and rice and naan bread was fine.

Me encantó este sitio. El servicio fue rápido y los precios accesibles. Lástima que no habrán los festivos.

We booked a couple of weeks in advance as we were told it would get busy. It was quiet but a Monday night. As there were three of us they just took off the cheapest starter, main and dessert. Food was very good hot, with warmers on the table to keep it hot. Generous portions. Two soft drinks reasonably priced as usually restaurants charge more. Very attentive waiters but one made a couple of mistakes with our order and bill but they rectified this. We ordered pompadoms and they were served with a very small onion dish, a small mint sauce and a small mango sauce. When we got the bill this addition was £1.80! We did not order them but the waiter said they were always served with pompadoms! Now we know this we would go back but be careful what we were ordering and check the bill. A very noisy group of about 14 to 20 people arrived as we were leaving. Glad we were finished as you couldn’t hear yourself think. Could understand if they were near the end of the evening. Never mind not the restaurants fault. Recommend for a quiet meal go early 6.30. Try again in a couple of months.

The Curry Inn is all you could want from a local Indian restaurant.
