Delhi House Cafe in Manchester

Great food and great service. Lincy and the team are very welcoming and helpful. The quality and portion of the food are really good. The desert menus, tea and drinks are really great as well. They are very detail oriented and make sure that the guest get all their food preferences. Thank you for the great service.

Lovely food in a vibrant environment inside Corn Exchange. Spefial thanks for great service and recommendations by Sherry

The starter, meal and dessert were delicious! Thanks McKenzie for your attention! Nice place for a lovely dinner!

A lovely restaurant to dine in. Excellent service, food presentation was great and good sized potions. Food was delicious.

Stopped by chance and turned out to be a nice surprise. The butter chicken was lovely would definitely go again

Mackenzie and Charlotte was the best server I’ve ever had in my life. Food was super good to loved the butter chicken that she recommended! Will be back

Mutton champaran is not like before.

Had a fantastic experience at Delhi House Cafe! The food was absolutely delicious — full of authentic flavors and beautifully presented. Our server, McKenzie, was incredibly attentive, friendly, and made us feel so welcome throughout. Her service really elevated the whole dining experience. Will definitely be coming back!

Lovely food and great service, Mackenzie was very attentive and knowledgeable of allergies.

The lady who served us was lovely

Greta gives us fantastic good service

Mackenzie and Greta gave us excellent service. Food was nice and mocktails were delicious.

The food was exquisite, Charlotte my waitress was fantastic

We arrived at the corn exchange and we were immediately confronted with so many impressive restaurants all with different and unique food choices. We decided to go for a curry at the Delhi House and it turned out to be an inspired choice. I have to say their chicken tikka masala has to be one of the best I've ever had and my friends both agreed. Great food, brilliant friendly service, in an architecturally elegant setting what more could you ask for. Definitely will recommend this place to my friends and will be going back again for sure.

Absolutely dire meal. The Shammi Kebabs were grey slime; tasted like flour mixed with lamb stock and then fried. Biryani was overly salty and dry. Just rice and a few bits of chicken. Ridiculously expensive considering what you got

I really enjoyed the food. @Tina … she is such a lovely person who take care of my table. So nice to have food at Delhi house cafe. It’s a such good nostalgia experience of Delhi food.

Great food, lovely atmosphere will be back

It was a huge deception. The staff and the environment were nice. However I order a butter chicken tikka massala with cheese nan and the flavour was not what I expected. The nan didn’t have almost cheese and the tikka massala had a favour that was too soft for Indian food.

Amazing food, ambience and service. One of the best Indian restaurants we have been to. Tried Goan prawn curry and Butter chicken. It was beyond amazing. Can’t wait to be back!

Great food, excellent service, and a lovely atmosphere! Delhi House Cafe is a must-visit for authentic Indian flavors. Highly recommend!

Everything is great about this restaurant. Staff are polite and attentive. Food is outstanding. We had a mixture of our regular dishes plus something from the festival menu. Everything was superb. This is by far the best Indian restaurant I've ever eaten in and I can't recommend it enough.

It was one of my best decisions to choose this restaurant for my dinner with friends....the food and ambience there was just out of the world ❤️

Visit the Corn Exchange & this is a must! Great tasting food.. friendly, efficient service & nice relaxed atmosphere!

Fantastic food and service was brilliant from Charlotte. Tikka butter chicken was next level

Best food I have ever tasted . Relaxed ambience and wonderful service . Highly recommend

The restaurant is based within corn exchange, lovely vibes and ambience but food was cold and flavourless! The portion sizes were also not the best in comparison to prices paid. Wouldn’t revisit, way better alternatives available in Manchester if you’re after an Indian!

After visiting twice I think it’s safe to say the quality of the food here doesn’t match the price at all. The signature butter chicken dish tastes like a cheap curry you could get at a hundred other places, and the Goan prawn curry tasted almost the same (it wasn’t even in the Goan style, and I’m 95% sure it was the same sauce as the chicken dish). Some of the chaat dishes are okay but the rest was really disappointing. Seems like a mediocre restaurant that has somehow positioned itself as high-end. Most of the other low reviews I’ve read seem to echo the same opinion

Food hit and miss some good dishes some of the meat dishes less good, think we all agreed that longsight and Rusholme has better curries for a fraction of the price the food is over priced the breads are expensive very oily no simple rotis tasted unhealthy, compared to somewhere like anmol in longsight were you get 2 rotis with each dish

Came here a few weeks ago for a family birthday gathering. £6.50 for a pint of cranberry and soda (I was designated driver) that only became apparent on the bill at the end. The service was okay but it is a pretty restaurant, albeit expensive for what you get. Food wise, the actual curry of the Goan Prawn Curry was really flavourful but the prawns themselves had little to no flavour and felt like they were only there for chunks of texture. Weirdly, if the prawns weren't in the prawn curry, I don't think you would have noticed a difference.

Good service at this busy restaurant. Great food too. I think the spice level is toned down for the local palate. They also cater for vegans and gluten intolerance, so everyone can go and get some tasty food

Had a very nice meal at this friendly Indian restaurant in the amazing Corn exchange. We were served by excellent Lindcy who recommended really good dishes and served us with a smile. Flavours were authentic and reminded us for food back home. Highly recommended for a nice meal with friends or family.

Must visit restaurant and great location Very beautifully done and quality of food is great

Food is total lifeless, no flavours. It seemed like the chef forgot entirely to put any spices. Only had starters and had leave without mains. Totally disappointed

Great food and great service. Staff was very helpful , especially Greta. Overall a really good experience.

Great food, great quality also Must visit

Amazing food and atmosphere Best butter chicken in Manchester

Just eaten here, the staff were friendly and helpful and the food was lovely. Thank you x

Great quality food and good prices, not too much. We had the Lamb Nihari & Champaran meat, it was out of this world brilliant flavours to match with the breads

Amazing food very beautiful restaurant in city centre location

Absolutely amazing! Best Champaran lamb curry we’ve had in a long time. Proper authentic food. Must try when in Manchester

Great spot right across from our hotel. Super friendly staff and beautiful food. Would highly recommend. The lunch menu is great value and has some really good options.

Wow. First time trying here and I must say I was impressed. Firstly the service was on point, the staff were very friendly and welcoming. The decor was really nice and up to date. The food was absolutely phenomenal. It was really tasty and well presented. Had the butter chicken, rice, chips and garlic naan. Had to follow it up with a dessert, which was lovely. Couldn't fault any of it. Yes, it is a little pricey, but it was well worth it. 10/10

Top marks! Delicious food, pleasant friendly staff and nice atmosphere in a lively building. The Goan prawn curry with lentil and raisin rice was delicious (just wish they'd added more prawns). Pawri Time fruit drink was delicious (elderflower, apple, lemon and mint) not too sweet. Efficient service (an hour for a small group). Surprisingly didn't need a reservation. Highly recommend this restaurant!

The food was amazing. We had the chicken biryani (full of flavours) the amritsari fish is a must try.

Rohith and Carolina were amazing with their service. 10/10 could never complain. Will 100% come back

Rohith and Carolina were both amazing and provided us with exceptional service, food was 10/10

Great experience at Delhi House! The food was delicious but it was Rohith's friendly and attentive service that made the visit extraordinary. He made us feel welcome and well taken care of. Highly recommended!

Excellent delicacies . Great ambiance

Food, ambience service is just spot on... ❤️❤️❤️

Amazing food and great experience! Great quality of food .

Food taste is above average but nothing amazing but what made every thing worst was how cheap (not in a good way) the whole meal felt. First of all kulcha naan we ordered, who serves half a naan? i really don't understand what are they going to do with rest of it and when I asked the waitress and all I got was yeah we only give 2 pieces. £4 for half a kulcha???? Now let's move on to presentation who serves naan or any other flat bread in a small chips strainer it really seemed like they ran out of plates and decided to use that instead. We also ordered Buttered Chicken Naan Pizza and let me tell you there was no naan it was khobez with topping on top. Nothing wrong with but it kinda miss leading if you way naan and there is something completely different from a naan. Now let's go to the service for location and costs of the items on the menu I expect a decent service but not here other than taking order the staff didn't care about anything else. I know I don't want to disturbed when I am eating but after bring the food the waitress never came back to check if everything was OK I had to call her after 10 min or so that's when I asked about the missing half of the naan and the naan (khobez) pizza wasn't cut properly and in the response all I heard was 'yeah we only give two pieces' and on pizza no response i decided to not bother calling her again and finish my food. There was a little currys left so when she came to being the bill I asked for it to me packed. So all I got was a box on my table with a bag so in other words do it yourself. At this point they might as well have told me to collect my good from the kitchen I would have been fine with that. The standards of service at this place are really poor and I think I wouldn't be returning anytime soon mogli is just next door is much better. Oh yeah so if after all that u though oh I wouldn't be tipping cause of their horrible service well I charged 5% on the bill so there is no going around that.

It is an amazing eating outlet with best of ambience.

Very good food and very good service

Food was excellent with perfect seasoning and flavour as expected from an Indian meal and the service representative Rohith was veryy cooperative and friendly about everything. Cheers to Rohith and his colleagues would recommend all my friends to visit delhi house cafe

It was amazing, service is on the another level. Thank you Rohith for your advices and for your service.

The ambience of the place was great. However, the food was very bad. We ordered rotis, different types of naans, kulcha and to our surprise, everything was bad. The portions were also small. And the prices are not at all worthy of the taste, service and the portion. I would personally not recommend this place based on our experience. Maybe ours was one of the worst cases, based on so many positive reviews.

We went to Manchester for a day out and ended up at the corn exchange for lunch, l had never heard of Delhi House before and it was a very good find. It was Monday so there weren't a lot of staff but they were friendly and efficient, l had the Lamb Biryani with ricotta on the side which well with the meat and rice.

Yummy food - must try are Butter Chicken, Papadi chat, Chicken tikka masala.Good ambience and great staff. The portions are small and need to be kept in mind while ordering. Overall a good experience.

The Naan/roti size doesn't match the price.

Delicious, and with wonderfully friendly service

My favourite Indian in Manchester ! Have been going for years !

We didn’t have reservation on a busy Friday evening, but they squeezed us in when no other local restaurants would even try! We only had a main course, but it was excellent also the was Service was exceptional, special mention for Tushita

Second time visiting this place. The mains were good both times. They have plenty of vegetarian and vegan options. Rating down becuase I am taken aback by the pricing on the sides and the soft drinks. The butter naan that is £3.5 is too small for the price. I would need to order 2x or 3x that, which is a lot to spend on bread. The fruit juices were £3.5 for a glass and taste the same as the Indus Guava 2L for £3.5. I just expected something better for the price on these items.

Couldn’t wait to leave a review, particularly because of the wonderful Maitre D’ on Thurs 12th, don’t know the gentleman’s name but he was so smiley and created such a lovely atmosphere- the food and other staff were also excellent but he was such a credit to the restaurant and will ensure our return :)

Visited today on a whim, food was delicious however a small wait on the food (understandable due to a busy Saturday night). Scarlet was extremely attentive and her suggestions were spot on. will be revisiting !

We stumbled across this place when they first opened 4+ years and since then we always pop in when we are in the area even if we just go for some India tea. The service is always superb and from the owner to the waiters they all can’t do enough for their customers.

Fantastic food and friendly staff. 10/10

It's a shame in the name of Biryani. When I smelt the Biryani I felt like throwing up plus 18 quid for that absolute day robbery disgusting 🤮🤢 Feel sick now

Delicious food. Different from your standard Indian restaurant, great menu selection. I would definitely return.

Went here for a friends birthday last week. Has to be the best Indian restaurant I’ve gone to in a while. The starters and small plate's are my favorite, esp the lotus stem bhel and tandoori chicken

Come here on the weekend just gone, service was terrible waited nearly 2 hours for our mains. Servers just stood around chatting rather than taking drinks orders. Food was very nice though when it eventually come.

Delish food, friendly staff Will deffo come back

I had a terrible experience at this restaurant. The food quality was shockingly poor and lacked flavor. The dishes were cold when they arrived, and the portions were ridiculously small for the price. To make matters worse, the service was absolutely dreadful. Assigned staff for my table was rude, inattentive, and took forever to bring our order. It seemed like they couldn’t care less about the customers. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. Save your money and go somewhere that values good food and proper service.

I just want to say read all the one or two stars reviews. They all make sense, we went after looking in Christmas markets, so hungry didn’t look for reviews just show the menu and went there. That was it please read all the bad reviews

We had a really delicious meal with excellent and friendly service from Tushita and Aswath. We would definitely recommend.

Loved the meal, Rohith’s and Jahanvi’s service on explaining food and suggesting dishes was the best part apart from the food. I’ll keep visiting you guys regularly:)

Beautifully presented and fantastically priced savoury halal indian cuisine. We've passed Delhi House many times walking to The Arndale, but today from peering at the window menu we decided to give it a try. Firstly the venue is situated in the heart of The Corn Exchange which is already a beautiful place as is! We were seated swiftly, a beautiful little eatery with ample seats both inside and out! We opted for trying the Butter Chicken Naan Pizza as the name intrigued us, the Chicken Tikka (a reliable staple) and a side order of the Black Daal, alongside some Chilli Cheese Naan, Garlic Roti and Desi Chai. Food was freshly prepared and served very quickly with incredibly generous deep-bowl portion sizes; even split between three of us there was enough lentils to take home!! The lentils were addictingly savoury and a must try side dish, the pizza was a delightful experience and the tikka had just as big a bowl with some chunky pieces! Succulent, creamy, sweet and delicious, we couldn't believe the portion sizes for the cost! An amazing almost unbeatable value for money! Complimentary tap water was offered, which infused with cucumber slices was actually very refreshing! The star of the show however wasn't rooted in the food, but the impeccable staff who left such an astounding impression I actually called the venue to thank them. A personal thank you to Rose in particular who was the kindest server I have ever met at a restaurant, she had a cheery upbeat demeanour and served with a bright smile and made sure our experience was as best as it could be. The kindness in the experience she provided alone is testament to the quality of Delhi House, and I hope that the owners pass on generous thanks, recognition, and incentives to staff this nice. It is a hard working role and appreciating this brilliant display of work is just as imperative. Thank you Rose for representing Delhi House so well, I hope these kind words leave your day as brightened as ours. We will absolutely be reccomending others here and you will see us again!

Delhi House Cafe is a fantastic spot for anyone craving genuine, flavorful Indian cuisine. The restaurant has a cozy and welcoming vibe that makes it perfect for a relaxed meal with friends or family. Every dish we tried was delicious, clearly prepared with quality ingredients and attention to detail. Rohith, who looked after our table, really made the experience special. He was friendly, attentive, and knew the menu inside out, helping us choose dishes we might not have thought to try. If you're looking for great food with warm, thoughtful service, Delhi House Cafe is a must-visit!

Had a lovely meal here on a busy Saturday. Service was great despite the place being at full capacity. Food was excellent. Thanks so much to Scarlet our server :)

Terrible not authentic at all. Your 'aghani' chicken. Is actually Pakistani stop mis representing. Awful food anyway won't be back.

Food was absolutely superb. The lamb Nihari was exceptional.

Absolutely incredible food! Attentive and friendly service and lovely atmosphere. If I could give it another star I would!

Thank you for a lovely evening. We had a nice dinner with great service which allowed us to have a romantic night. I believe her name is Madison, she was lovely and was exceptionally pleasant. We will come again just for the service . 5 stars!

I have been making my own ‘restaurant’ base sauce and curries for quite some time as we love ‘curry’. This has led to us mostly being disappointed when we have Indian cuisine out. Not this time however, it was beautiful, and the service was on point as well. Nan breads could be bigger but that is the only small point, and other than that it was lovely. Picked a few spice ideas up as well to try. Will definitely be back.

This was one of my best Indian food I had in Manchester. Enjoyed the food even though it was take away due to unavoidable situations. I can imagine this must be great if u have at restaurants. The girl at service was excellent and understood the exact requirements and chef done the same …. Enjoyed..

Food was so good my kids love it and it was fresh and clean staff was very friendly sure i will visit again

A friend had recommended this restaurant. I wanted to try it and both my husband and I are extremely disappointed. The manager was helpful while we ordered food. Having told her it was our first time at this restaurant good practice would of been to check in with us at the end of the meal. She never even give us eye contact!! The food is poor quality. We dine out several times a week and are well experienced at dining out snd enjoy Indian food. I have had better take aways than this restaurant quality of food is very poor. Extremely disappointed to say the least!!

Fantastic samosas, butter chicken pizza and paneer. If I stayed more than one night in Manchester I would have been back for dinner again.

The smallest portion of naan bread you'll ever see, it was essentially two small slices that would be impossible to share. The shahi paneer curry was delicious.

Lovely decor and we were served by an excellent waiter. The food was not very good. Quite bland and the naan bread was tasteless.

Stumbled upon this gem outside of the Football museum - all I can say is wow wow wow, everything I ate just exploded with flavour in my mouth. The menu is filled with Indian favourites and some lesser known stars! Definitely a must try in Manchester or Liverpool…definitely a return trip.

My second time visiting here and it didn’t disappoint. The food is sooo good and far better in my opinion than the likes of dishoom. Would highly recommend you give this place a try and hope it expands further around the UK

Great service and food and they were so kind to have a small birthday feature for my friend who we were celebrating the occassion for! Great place to sit around for photos as well!

We are on a vacation for a couple of days and decided to go for indian food, a lott of choices in the city, but i swear this one will blow your mind. ITS DELICIOUS!

Excellent authentic food. Nice atmosphere and staff were polite, respectful and professional. Definitely recommend!

My fave place in Manchester! The food is always incredible and the staff are wonderful. Highly recommend if you love the taste of authentic Indian cuisine!!

food was cold hair in the food three coke bottles took so long???? were they making it in there or smt???

Great food with great customer service

Been twice Wonderful atmosphere, chicken biryani and mutton keema excellent Just not overly happy about the pretty steep service charge

We had such a wonderful visit, the food was fantastic, the service so friendly and my mom and dad enjoyed the treat we had. Thank you.
