I've always wanted to go here being 3 miles away, First impressions/ car park. litted with rubbish and looks very scuffy, it's like being in a derelict estate. staff welcoming food was nice but no better than other local Indian restaurants..

What a wonderful experience. The food was delicious, the restaurant very clean and neat and the personnel very polite! Could not believe this level of a restaurant could be found in such a rural location.

Fantastic meal and service every time. It was my friends 1st ever visit to an Indian restaurant and she was delighted with her meal and grateful to the waiter who helped her choose an entry level option. I can highly recommend the Indian Lantern

Really lovely staff, nice ambience to the place. The food was absolutely delicious- I’m not a spice lover but I adore flavour, so I had the Chicken Korma and a Mango dish that’s very similar to a korma, and they were absolutely phenomenal. The only problem was I ate so quickly that I was so bloated, I couldn’t finish my pint.

Having been greeted by a surly dictatorial front of house, I placed my order. Firstly I was told my takeaway would be 30 minutes. I asked to pay for everything hang also ordered a pint of beer whilst I waited. My instruction was, sit back and relax. I don’t need instruction on how to behave when ordering and waiting. Your fare was really not worth the wait. My rezalla was awful and so was the the tikka masala.

We are so very fortunate to have this restaurant a short walk from our home. We have travelled extensively and tried and tasted different indian restaurants and each time our conclusion is there is no better restaurant than the Lantern. The service is consistently attentive, the food always of the same exceptional standard, the dishes are so authentic and rich in traditonal flavours. We would highly recomend a visit as you will struggle to find better! Thank you From Marie & John

The building is nothing to look at on the outside but smart and very pleasant inside. I visited on a Saturday evening and it was busy. The staff were friendly, the service was good and the food was excellent. I enjoyed it so much that I went back there to eat on the Sunday! Parking is available, accessible down the side of the building.

We were in a large group split into three tables due to Covid but that didn't stop anything - the management, the service and the food were at top-notch. The staff were amiable all the way through. It was very busy but they dealt well between our eating-in orders and the takeaway orders. My OH and I ordered a starter and two mains to share: Meat Samosa (£3.50), Lamb Tikka Biryani (£8.95) and Cox Bazaar Balti (£10.95). The price is reasonable for the quality of the food. It was flavoursome and tasty without being thirsty afterwards. I definitely recommend this place. Don't be put off with its location. This is a hidden gem.

This is a nice place. Good tastes great and is presented really well. Friendly staff can seem uninterested sometimes and it can take a while for food to come, but if you're up for a curry and not in a hurry, Indian Lantern is a good choice. Prices are okay, being what you'd expect to pay for a really nice curry. Food portions could be large, but here it's all about quality over quantity.

Takeaway review: We've just had an order to try out a new place. Not very impressed. Really tight with the amount of meat in the lamb dish, not many pieces at all and the bhajis were really flat and pretty average. It was refreshing that it wasn't greasy though.
