Forts of India in Cheshire West and Chester

As always Forts of India never disappoints. Always greeted with a smiley face and the staff cant do enough. And of course the food as always is so delicious. I feel very lucky to call this my local Indian... well done lads, keep up the hard work.

Just a takeaway this time, however, the food was amazing. The staff here are amazing too. They all work very hard (both in and out of the kitchen) to give everyone some fantastic dishes and a great night out. Cant wait to come back for a proper sit down meal here .Thanks guys.

Lovely , friendly staff and great resturant , perfect for family’s and couples. Highly recommend the lemon fried rice.

Just back from a lovely family meal to celebrate our son’s birthday. First time visit but won’t but the last. Excellent food, very generous portions. Attentive staff & lovely atmosphere.

Soon as we walked into the restaurant, we knew this was going to be great. We where greeted, offered a table and the drinks order was taken. The decor and cleanliness of this place is amazing. I had a Chicken Chatt starter and my wife had the Prawn Cocktail. They where both superb. For the mains I had a Lamb Madras and my wife had the Chicken Tikka Masala. Along with Naan breads for sides, we both agreed, this was the best weve ever had. We didnt waste a bit and ended up taken what we where too full to eat, home. It really was perfect and I definitely cant rate this place highly enough. The owner and the team are soo friendly. The place is so clean and welcoming and the food is incredible. The bar has a huge variety of drinks including Draught Cobra. Thank you for looking after us chaps. We will definately be back, over and over again.

We went here for my birthday and we were not disappointed! The food was excellent with great service and friendly, attentive staff. They even sang 'Happy Birthday' when they brought in a speciality ice cream topped with a candle! This was our first visit and we will definitely be returning. Lovely restaurant with a great atmosphere.

Excellent indian restaurant that serves great food. The chicken saag was great and tandoori chicken tikka i had was superb. £44 for 4 poppadoms with onion, 2 mains with chips and naan and 2 cokes.

Everything we visit the forts the service and the food never disappoints. I had the chi tk naga special and it was fantastic.

Muhithur was fantastic! Great food and great service as always! Recommend to everyone! Must visit if in the Cheshire area!

We visited F of I this last week to have our Valentines meal a day early. We were not disappointed, it had been quite a while since we last visited and although there were a lot of new faces, the friendly and welcoming service was as good, if not better than we remembered. Still a very extensive and interesting menu and my favourite of dish, lamb bengal was still there on the lineup. The mains were very large generous portions and packed with delicious meet, not the 3 or 4 chunks of meat hidden amongst a mass of sauce as is often the case in many Indian restaurants. The naans were as good as ever and totally perfect along with the Peshawari rice. The house red wine was very drinkable. My only slight criticism would be that we weren’t routinely asked if required more drinks, but in many ways this was quite a nice change to being constantly asked.

Our first visit. It was a late booking but the staff returned my call and staff were very accomadating and helpful...the atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming. Great choice on the menu and when the food came it was fresh, hot and full of flavour....Good choice of drinks and staff are very attentive but also you don't feel interrupted. We will definitely be going back....its a great place for special occasion or just a friday/Saturday night layed back curry night. Thank-you Forts of India

My favourite Indian restaurant. I've been coning to the forts of India every week for the past decade and never have I been disappointed. Chi tikka Naga is to die for

Been coming here since our daughter was 5..she's now 18 and it's just as special to us now as it was then. We travel from Liverpool so can't come as often as we'd like but come when we can. The food is INCREDIBLE. The staff are wonderful. So so friendly and kind..they really look after you. Every dish we've tried has been beautiful. Recommend chicken shashlik, tandoori King prawn and the sauces such as balti, masala and the pathia are immense with amazing mind blowing flavours! Booked for Nye and really looking forward to it. If you're considering going..please try it..you won't regret it! Oh and the person who said it's shabby inside must wear his glasses next time because it's gorgeous inside with beautiful intricate decorations. Thank you so much to all the staff - Angie, Ian and Maisie x

Food absolutely sensational, service was excellent, all staff incredibly friendly. Particularly Ullah who really looked after us.

Very very good very perlite good staff and the food is amazing I do recommend to any one who’s thinking about going

The place looks like it needs a deep clean. Waiting area Seats are tired and worn. Toilets look and feel unclean and grubby. I feel if this is what we can see, what’s the kitchens like?!

I have been here quite a few times now and the place never fails to deliver... Great food with great service..

The food and service was dreadful!!! We had to wait a long time for our food and we enquired three times when it would arrive. When our meals eventually arrived the garlic and onions in two of the curries were raw and unedible. All of the curries were tasteless, bland and not very hot. The sag paneeer did not resemble anything i had eaten before - it was like the cheese and spinach had been warned up in a korma sauce. No one came to check to see if our meals were okay. After the other meals were finished we tried to order drinks with 3 different waiters but nothing arrived. The whole evening was a waste of money, which was ashame as the evening out was for my dad's birthday treat. We wont be going back.

Woweee!! A good Indian restaurant at last!! From the brilliant service to the delicious food we could not fault this fantastic restaurant! The best Indian we have tried in Cheshire by far! It’s 40 minutes for us but absolutely worth it!!!

Visited with my Dad and the family last night. Excellent professional serice, food was delicious and not salty, just full of flavour. King prawn sagwala was beautiful with big succulent prawns. Lovely naan bread, lots of vegetarian options. Really nice evening, thank you 👍

I visit the forts every 2 weeks for the past 10 years and can say the food and the service never disapoints

I've been using the forts every week for the past 10yrs. Never fail to disapoint the food the service is always fantastic

Food very nice but not as good as the Eastern Spice in Hebden Bridge in West Yorkshire - staff pleasant and helpful - thank you

Absolutely love this place. A very busy restaurant but never fails to disappoint. Excellent service and the best Indian curry ever.

Well haven’t had a curry for a while and decided to head over to the “Forts” of Indian” Wow! Just had the best curry 🍛 I’ve ever tasted. Flavoursome, tasty and delicious 🤤 I’d have no hesitation in recommending this restaurant. Food 🍲 arrived piping hot, well presented and cooked to perfection. Staff friendly and attentive. Amazing……. What Time Is It? It’s Curry 🍛 O’Clock! You’ve got to try this place……

Me and my family visit our local Indian once every month and this place never fails to impress. The food and service is always faultless regardless how busy it is.

We ordered a collection New Years Eve and how disappointed we was when we got it home. We don’t live far at all, never had trouble collecting and bringing it home. But this time the food was cold, we couldn’t get through on the phone lines as was engaged for ages to speak to someone about the situation.

Come here every couple of weeks for a takeaway. Meat in particular is great quality lovely prawns and tikka meats. The sauces could be a little better in my opinion but the rest is delicious. Lovely onion bhajis and chat starters.

Went in here with my daughter I have never ventured away from a korma curry. My daughter asked advise for me to try something different the advice from the waiter was spot on and I tried a chicken pasanda. It was amazing so thank you....

Have been here tonight for a meal with my mum, the staff were very friendly and helpful, they gave amazing advice on what was on the menu and have even managed to encourage my mum to try something different so thank you would highly recommend.

Service was excellent and the food could not be faulted it was first class. The sharing starter was devine and Jalfrezi tasty and full of flavour

Very disappointed. Hadn't been for a few years - food was tasteless slush and the service was rude and obnoxiios. Ruined a birthday famy celebration.

Visited the forts after a glowing recommendation from friends and it did not disappoint. Visited during the post Christmas pre NYE lull but it was still busy, always a good sign. The place is spotlessly clean, the service was attentive but the food was the...

Our favourite Place for Indian food. The best onion Bhaji’s anywhere. Chicken Tikka is amazing, can’t fault anything. Service excellent and reasonable prices. Thanks for another fabulous meal.

What a lovely place! Lovely setting, AMAZING food and excellent service. Visited from away as it was close to Bewilderwood, will definitely return if we are in the area again!

This was our second visit and we just called in on spec as we were passing by ...it was a Saturday night and they were extremely busy. Despite being rushed off their feet, they fitted us in, which we really appreciated, and settled us in...

We have been coming here for over 4 years, and always receive delicious meals and fabulous service with smiling happy team. Even during the Lockdowns, still they remained open as much as they could, and food quality all remained so so high. There is no...

We had a really lovely meal and service was excellent despite us being a large group of 12 persons. Only a few minor issues - tarka Dahl was slightly too salty, chips were thin 'fries' and table behind was a bit close for social distancing...

Service was very slow been there 20 minutes without a menu then asked what we wanted to order after that the service improved significantly and staff very attentive to our needs. Need more consideration for wheelchair users although they had access, table very unsuitable. Food...

I am always surprised by the reviews for Forts of India and how busy it is, as I live very local and would not personally recommend it. I reluctantly went a couple of weeks ago with a friend who had never been and wanted to...

Quick service, excellent food and friendly staff. Can’t here the traffic despite it been on busy road.

Went to this restaurant last friday although it is in the middle of a very busy road the A41 you cannot hear any traffic as they have great soundproofing.The food was amazing and reasonably priced it's been a long time since I have eaten Indian...

We were staying a few nights at a nearby hotel, saw the Forts of India in passing and decided to go to there for a curry one evening. It turned out to be a great decision as we received a lovely warm welcome on arrival,...

Went to Forts of India on the 22nd Feb and it was probably the best Indian I have ever had, and I love an Indian. Service was fantastic, food was quality and came in reasonable time. I would recommend the Lamb Bengal! I will definitely be going again.

A visit with friends. Nice service and very good food. Had poppadoms, starters and mains, all nice but we struggled to eat it all. Will order less next time.

Delicious food and excellent service with plenty of parking. We had poppadoms with tasty chutney tray, sheesh kebab, madras, Bhuna and garlic naan. All dishes were very tasty and perfect portion sizes! Main was a bit slow arriving but they were busy and it was delicious, I will definitely be back!

We were staying locally and we always enjoy an Indian so we booked here and weren’t disappointed.The staff were very friendly and the decor pretty decent too.Extensive menu with some dishes I haven’t seen before and draught cobra. Lovely.We ordered poddadoms and pickle tray. Freshly cut onion and several dips to choose from and crispy warm poppadoms. Great start.I had vegetable samosas and they were piping hot, crispy pastry and stuffed full of vegetables. Superb.For main course we ordered southern Indian chicken garlic dish and chicken tikka sizzle plate with a vegetable curry side dish and 2 garlic naans.The chicken was top drawer. Succulent, tasty and with slight spice. Huge chunks for my wife’s dish and large slices of breast for my dish.The salad was fresh as was the lemon too which you don’t always get. It was also pretty busy for a Monday night.Piping hot, with some fabulous flavours to taste. These were excellent. We couldn’t finish our meals there was that much to eat.With drinks £54. Very good value meal.Coming from Bradford, I eat curry regularly and this is up there with the best of them, if not better.

First visit for some time , the place has been refurbished and the recently won awards are proudly displayed ! Party of 6, a range of dishes ordered.Popadoms were excellent, onion Bhaji the same. Various curries - Balti Garlic Chilli was a tad too hot for my taste. Well cooked rice and peshwari nan were good as were sides.Reasonable prices, good atmosphere and friendly staff.We’ll be back again soon.

My first visit. Busy place midweek with friendly staff. Onion bhajis were to my liking. The house chicken curry was tasty as was the Kerala chicken although very creamy - but I was warned about that. Reasonable small wine list.

I have driven past this restaurant for years but have never stopped - what a mistake - I've missed out....The food/staff/service is fabulous and we will definitely be returning - I'm just a bit gutted we dont live in the area as this would be a regular treatDespite being a Saturday night and the restaurant being busy, the staff had time to stop and chat with us, taking a genuine interest - thanksWe will return - I'm missing the Naan bread already.

Recently visited here can’t knock the service at all but shame on the food I had the mixed grill and it all tasted bland probably will try somewhere else next time

We have been eating at this restaurant both eating in and takeaways since moving into the area three years ago, the food is always fantastic, fresh and tasty the service is also first class. Recommend the Lamb Bengal one of our favourites! Awesome place !!

The best Indian food I have had. They won the CurryLife Award for Best Restaurant in Cheshire 2019. Always friendly staff too. Try them, you won't be disappointed.

Located out of the way on the A41 between Whitchurch and Broxton, this restaurant is easy to overlook which we have done many times.

This was our first visit to Forts of India with our friends, who eat here regularly. First impressions were - well, impressive. Extremely tasteful decor. We were greeted by very pleasant staff who, after that, couldn't have been more friendly without being overbearing, chatting, making sure everything was ok. We were not rushed, and, after placing our orders, settled down to an excellent evening of food and service. If you want your meal a certain way, no problem. Want this taken out, this added, again no problem. Our friends went for a Chicken Tikka Sizzler and a Forts "Tower" (not spelt correctly by me!) while I plumped for Naga Delight and my wife Chicken Bengal. The food was outstanding, especially the Bengal dish, something I had never tasted before after having a sneaky mouthful from my wife's plate. Sides included Keema Rice, Garlic Naan (not the largest I've seen but tbh it was enough) and salad. The staff are a credit to this establishment, and made us feel very welcome. Will definitely be returning 5*

The food, service & atmosphere fantastic will definitely be returning. Car park a bit small and limited spaces. Busy but treated like we were the only ones here by the staff, everything you want for a restaurant will definitely be returning

Recently visited and would certainly return if we are in that area again.

How in this day and age can a restaurant survive if it does not have an on line menu to order take away food. Sort it out Fortis.

Friendly and pleasant staff, food and service was excellent could not fault it had sharing starter this was delicious as was my Chicken Jalfrezi would certainly return

visited this restaurant whilst on a mini break at nearby Carden Park. Made to feel welcome on arrival from the friendly staff. the food was yum. Generous portions.

Stumbled on this gorgeous food heaven by chance today. The food was tasty and the waiting staff were professional and friendly. No wonder people were trooping in for both take-away and sit down meal. Wife was pleased.

Visited here at the end of April for a family birthday.

Was in the area and stumbled across this little gem. Great food nicely decorated attentive staff clean and tidy

The service is great here. Very professional and friendly. From the moment they take your coat to the handshake you get upon leaving it feels very 5 star for a curry house. Of course the food has to be mentioned and this is very good. We've also had food to go and the takeaway portions are very good value for money. Would highly recommend this place

My Partner and I love curry (especially spicy ones) and we have eaten many different dishes at many different restaurants in many different places. Yet this is the best around, without a doubt! We kee coming back here and we always look forward to eating at the Forts. From the excellent customer service, the warm, welcoming, relaxed staff will do there best to fit you in, even without a booking if they can); to the amazing flavours in the curries (you do not need to ask for extra spices, they get it spot on every time), to the relaxing atmosphere... we are always impressed! Our favourites are the Madras and Pathia, but even the milder curries such as the Balti and Massala are also lovely. The prices are slightly on the more expensiive side, but you get what you pay for... Would definitely reccommend to anyone, no matter what you're tastses.

Have been here before but quite some time ago. Couldn’t fault it then and still can’t. From start to finish there was nothing that was too much trouble. Highly recommend

We have not been to Forts of India for many months as our first visit put us off, but I can say this visit was faultless, greeted at the door, was found a table almost instantly as we had not booked, fast, efficient, friendly service, chicken pakora is best I’ve ever had, with lovely cuts of chicken, main course was just as good, food was excellent, so glad we gave it another try, i would now recommend this 100%

We visited this restaurant for the first time on Valentines Night. We were a little concerned knowing that this restaurant had failed several times in the past under different owners.

We came here after work and the service that we get is always amazing and faultless the food is out of this world every time that’s what makes us come back every week thanks again for a great meal we will be back soon

From the minute we walked through the door we were met with such a warm welcome. The staff who greeted us were very friendly. Led us to our table, offered us drinks. We had three courses and started with popadoms, of course, and a chutney tray, they were delicious. Followed by a starter each, again, so tasty then on to our mains. We both went for something we have never had and we were not let down at all. My partner had the Rogan Josh and I had the ‘Kashmarir’ (I think that’s how it spelt), which had pineapple and banana in, I’ll defiantly be ordering it again. Throughout the whole meal we were checked in on at regular intervals. We weren’t pestered at all. When we came to leave, again we were greated at the bar by the warm welcoming staff. We will be going again, sooner rather later. Thank you so much Forts of India and all your staff for such a pleasent evening. We thoroughly enjoyed our rare date night.

The forts of india is by far the best indian in Cheshire. The food is always amazing especially the Naga delight and the Ajabaje the waiters are very friendly and greet all customers with a smile. Another great weekend at the FORTS OF INDIA

Had a great time, fantastic meal, wonderful attentive staff. Would definitely come for Christmas meal here again.

I guess that I am one of many of the passing trade that decides to try this place.

Have been getting takeaways on a monthly basis, sometimes the food is excellent and other times it is not so good, as the same curry I have ordered can be different from one month to the next. Shame it is inconsistent, however the staff are always very hospitable.

Two of us are here Saturday night , very friendly helpful staff . Helped pick out dish and great recommendation both of us thoroughly enjoyed our food 😋 . Hope to visit again really soon !

I visited forts of india with my girlfriend a few weeks ago on a friday night, the service was good and the atmosphere was okay, the knock versions of chart hits from yesteryear didn't help. Food was good with large potions, we are both veggie and there was a good selection for us.

First time here and it’s a very pleasant experience. Staff friendly, food good and a pretty good atmosphere with quite a few people in on a Saturday night. Decor is not particularly my taste but then this is an Indian restaurant in a former pub in the middle of nowhere and they seem to be doing alright - good on them. Worth a visit.

We came here on a Wednesday night with a few friends we come here a lot .the server that we had had only been here a couple of days and the service he gave was amazing he chatted with us and had a good laugh nothing was too much trouble we shall definitely be returning again keep up the good work forts of India

I was alone, away working and phoned up for a take away. When I arrived the place was so nice and the staff so welcoming, I decided to stay and eat. The meal was freshly prepared and was one of the best Indian meals I had ever tasted. The hospitality was first class. I wish we had a place like this in my home town!

Went on a Wednesday evening, first impressions were nice, and found the staff to be friendly, Moomin looked after us and explained the various dishes. All four of us enjoyed our starters and main courses....will visit again.

I’ve been here a few times eating in and take away and the food is amazing and always on point every time I’ve been the staff are very professional and polite and can never do enough for you the takeaway service is very fast and just as good as eating in keep up the good work

Quick review. The best in the area. Staff are brilliant. Food is top notch. We travel from tarporley to eat in dine out. Prices reasonable. No reason to risk anywhere else.

First visit to this popular Indian restaurant and we were very pleased with the choice and they provided excellent friendly service and great food washed down with a couple of Carlsberg. Definitely worth a visit.

Came here with my husband, son and his friend. Food was amazing (as always). Service is consistently good and friendly. If you’ve not been before, what are you waiting for!

We visited as a family and received excellent service. Staff are very welcoming and the food is lovely.

Came for a family meal with relatives who live nearby. This was our 2nd time here and once again, what a fantastic experience it was! The food and service was exceptional, staff brilliant too. One regret...we live in Nottingham so can't come more often! It would definitely be a regular haunt for us if we lived closer.

Had a lovely time last night here as usual excellent and attentive service. The food as always is really good and it is such a pleasant restaurant. We will be back.

Lovely food, ordered as a takeaway. Not oily at all which is often an issue with Indians. Would visit again

We were yet again looked after by the wonderful staff at the Forts of India in Malpas, we have been going to this restaurant since it opened many years ago and thankfully nothing has changed. The food is excellent, the staff are lovely and you leave feeling so pampered and always look forward to the next meal there. It is always a treat to come to this fantastic Indian restaurant.

Food is really poor quality and that’s the second time in a row. The service is worse than the local Mcdonalds and that says it all.

I definitely recommend Forts of India. I was there on Saturday evening (24th March), for the first time, as a group of 4 people. The staff were welcoming and engaging and the food was superb. I will visit again.

Loved this place food service however not been as good over the last couple of months felt as though they take your business for granted shame will use but not as often as we used to

We called in late last week for a takeaway, honestly say was one of the best we’ve ever had. Food was fantastic and service equally as good. Will definitely be back.

Went for a midweek night out with some friends, place was nice a quiet but not completely empty which was nice. Hussain was very helpful and attentive as always and helped us puck the right meals for us. Food was very good as it always...

They never fail to please here. The menu is full of a variety of interesting full flavoured dishes. The meat has been given time to soak up the spices. I particularly like the Bengal Lamb. We always enjoy coming here. All the staff are friendly,...
