Indigo in Bury

The food was lovely and good service but it cost much more than advertised. £86 for 2 adults and a 9 year old with one round of drinks and a lemonade on a Sunday. The drinks are expensive. We queried this and were told prices have gone up but I only saw the advert that same morning. Found it quite dishonest. Notably there are no menus on tables and no prices published when you get there. Our bill wasn't properly itemised either so costs aren't transparent. For example the lemonade was £4.

I came in for the buffet with a friend. The food was dry. we had to wait ten minutes for the dessert for them to tell us what we wanted was finished. Bare in mind we came at 5 pm. The server was rude and after asking multiple times for a kebab he would delay it and work on something else. I would not recommend this to anyone. Save ur money and spend elsewhere

recently visited Indigo for iftaar, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The food was absolutely delicious—every dish was packed with authentic flavors. The curries were rich and perfectly spiced, the lamb chops starter was tender and full of smoky goodness, and the sheek kebabs were juicy with just the right amount of seasoning. The service was equally impressive. A tall gentleman among the waitstaff stood out with his outstanding customer service—attentive, polite, and always ensuring we had everything we needed. To top it off, the dessert bar was a treat in itself! A fantastic selection of different sweets, catering to every taste, made for the perfect ending to a great meal. Overall, Indigo Bury Buffet offers amazing food, top-notch service, and a great atmosphere. Highly recommend!

Tried ringing on Saturday Sunday and also Monday but no answers so decided to travel 30 miles to open my iftaar at this venue. Arrived and they told me there was no availability which was quite upsetting as we had traveled far and tried booking in advance. Regardless, they told me I could have a table for 19:30 and gave us a complimentary iftaar plate to open our fast. I would say make sure you've got a table booked before turning up and looking like idiots.

Pros: Comfy environment, loads of currys, very friendly staff, good family spot, lots of desserts options that you can get money's worth just on desserts, amazing salad bar, whole menu just for drinks 🍸, good variety of starters and food is fresh and tasty. Cons: No proper pilau or biryani, just boiled rice and boiled rice with colour labelled as pilau. Starters are the most fried items, not many grilled items. Vegetarian currys have saag in almost all dishes. Overall, it is a good place with tasty indian curries and drinks, some people might love it more than others, especially if you like a nice drink with your food.

Terrible experience at Indigo Restaurant. The food was absolutely awful—bland, poorly cooked, and not even close to what was promised on the menu. On top of that, the customer service was just as bad. The staff was rude, slow, and completely uninterested in helping. To make matters worse, they charge ridiculously high prices for this subpar experience. Definitely not worth the money. Wouldn’t recommend it to anyone The man at the till was very rude behaviour and the guy with long hight was very bad. No recommendations 😤🤮👎🏻

WOW the food is not only tasty but absolutely value for money. We've only just discovered this restaurant. We have ordered four times in the past few months. Starters, mains and sides everytime and no complaints.

Unfortunately worst experience I have had going out to eat. We decided to give it a go after seeing reviews but we actually felt like it was a catfish! We got seated upstairs where we were shown a small selection of a buffet and were told that desserts were downstairs, fair enough. Everyone helped themselves and I was actually shocked that 9/10 things were not refilled. Fruit was not refilled at all, all my child wanted was watermelon lol. We had to ask a member of staff for watermelon, hoping he would refill the buffet but no. He bought a small starter plate of just watermelon and put it in the empty buffet. After a big disappointment in the selection of food being served upstairs we decided to just go get dessert, the vibe downstairs was very different! We most probably would have had a better experience downstairs because we decided to look at their buffet and I was so annoyed that they had a better variety of food downstairs! Upstairs we had limited currys and downstairs has about 5 extra currys and everything filled to the brim, smoking hot. I feel the upstairs was very neglected as no refills were done and not the same food being served upstairs. I was totally disappointed. Maybe the owner or manager should be over seeing the whole place? Not just serving ice cream from behind a worktop. Very moody didnt even smile. SO SO DISAPPOINTED.

Absolute disgrace of a place! Booked a table for 8 people at 7, table wasn’t ready, staff were disorganised, dishonest and rude. We were told upstairs had the same food and it didn’t it was all empty and dry. Downstairs had better food for children but to get to it you have to go up and down, not great for disabled and they were extremely discriminative and not family friendly at all. Will not go back and should be avoided.

Very bad experience. They give lamb chops only once and very cold and hard never going again. please find a better place to eat

Such a lovely buffet. Food was delicious and amazing. Staff were friendly and polite.

Out of 10 I would give 3.All bland food.Not much variety. Only 1 meat dish with carrots in it.Only the chomps were nice giving it a 3 star.Dessert average.

Today was my 1st ever visit and Inshallah not my last to Indigo Indian Restaurant in Bury Manchester. The greeting from the front of house was spot on humble polite showed myself my Disabled Son and my nephew to our table and upon my request that my son is a wheelchair user we need open space they seated us on a big table with ample of amounts of room for my son to manoeuvre easily. Next came our waiter for the evening young gentleman with abundance of respect and great table manners took our drinks order explained how we approach the buffet area and if we needed anything else to ask at free will. Shortly after this the head of the house the elder of 5 brothers came to greet us and gave us complementary Mango Lassi on the house which by way was absolutely spot on not to sweet and the texture and taste was great. As our evening came along I was then greeted my the next brother of the manager of front of house who gave us the house specials LAMB PLATTER consisting of LAMB CHOPS WITH MUTTON MALAI SHEEKH KEBABS and OMG they were super delicious. I will admit that these were much better than Akbars, Lala’s and Mumtaz Lamb Chops and SHEEKH Kebabs that I have tried. The evening went on the waiters were professional and excellent I would like to put my heartfelt applause to the staff that went above and beyond to look after my son and nephew during our visit thank you very much guys. Lastly I will say their food quality was 5 stars Starter Main Desserts all excellent my request would be please do go and enjoy an evening at Indigo Restaurant in Bury and indulge yourself and try some of the finest cooking we have ever eaten for yourself. Thank you once again Ingido Restaurant in Bury we will see you again very soon.

Lovely food. Especially the lamb chops. Worth every penny

Have been there for our anniversary dear . The ambience is good , staffs are well behaved . Plenty of veg and non veg food items were there , though starter items could be improved a bit like adding kebabs , prawn items . Main courses are top notch . Dessert section has lot of options though it will be served by the staffs only which disappointed a bit . Overall it’s a nice experience.

Very good price for the food you get to eat and would be going again

Fabulous food and exactly what we ordered. The (Chicken) Afghani curry was amazing!

We always had the pleasure of dining at Indigo. From the moment we walk in, the ambiance is warm and inviting, with beautiful decor that set the perfect tone for our meal. The staff was friendly and attentive, making sure we were comfortable throughout our visit.kids always enjoy it there too . Also , hustle free parking .

Lovely food and amazing service

Ordered from here before but i’ve never been inside so i decided to go with the partner. As soon as i got there the servers were friendly and the food was absolutely delicious as always we even got given a lamb starter which was so lovely i would definitely come back here again. Thank you so much

Absolutely amazing food and amazing staff. We was welcomed as soon as we came in the restaurant the food was delicious well and plenty of options. We had an amazing time and the staff and food is great. Really nice experience ❤️

Ate here last night, Service was great, the let down was the food we ordered off the menu and the lamb chops that my husband had were basically just fat and the chicken in the curry’s seemed to not be fresh all the pieces looked the same like they were out of a frozen bag. We all had boggy belly’s after eating here as soon as we got home.

Great place. Always have takeout from them. Order from their website and collect points. I’ve had free meals from the points

food was cold,nann bread wasn't cooked very doughy,stuff nann wasn't stuffed with what they said, very disappointed will not be ordering again 😞

I went for my birthday at 5.30pm on a Wednesday evening. We were the first ones in, but it soon started to fill up. There were poppadoms, a great selection of starters, 10-12 curries, some traditional, some speciality, (Achari and nepalese were my favourites!) and even nuggets and chips for those who don't like a curry (kids, etc) There were also some delicious traditional desserts and wonderful ice creams. All in all, fab value for money, incredibly tasty food & friendly staff!

The aloo was cold and we didn’t receive the rice we ordered.

As most of our party were vegetarian we didnt opt for the buffet that was available, although I would say it looked brilliant and I believe would be well worth the price. We stuck with the main menu and were able to have most of the meals as vegetarian with options I have never seen in any other restaurant. Everything was very tasty and the service was friendly and quick. As its local to my daughter we will definitely be back.

Choice and quality is better than others we have tried in the area.

Wonderful place... Absolutely gorgeous inside. 🙂 Food just awesome and staff very organised quick and extremely polite ❤️wonderful place to go.. We will surely be back!!

Top tier food and service. Ate more than i could handle as it was so tasty

Good selection of food. Masala fish starters were great. Saag paneer with yummy, dal bora which is a bengali dish was good. Service was brilliant. Great selection of desserts aswell. The only very very small downside was the veg somasas tasted readymade and the aburgines and potato curry the aburgines were undercooked or slightly hard. Apart from that everything else was great. Good options for kids aswell. Reasonable price!

Highly recommended. Food was excellent, good prices and very quick delivery. Will definitely be ordering again.

Food was amazing and a great deal. The delivery driver was great as well. Thank you. I’ll definitely order again

Really nice food, delivery slightly late but it is a sat night, missing 1 item which was a hot dip, ordered 2 only one came

After reading the recent reviews, I wasnt really looking forward to coming back for a second visit. We came last night (Wednesday) at 6.30. restaurant was very quiet (it soon got busier) My husband and I opted for the buffet. Lots of choice and fresh. Other reviews said the food was cold - this was NOT the case last night. Staff were professional and attentive and were keen for us to try everything. We were not offered lamb chops, so unsure if these are still on offer. Dessert choice slightly disappointing but fine. Could do with a better quality ice cream. If you are a vegetarian or fish eater, I would suggest you opt for something off the menu and not have the buffet. I think the only fish option on the buffet was pakora.

Great food for eat in, pick up, or delivery. Since moving it's a bit far away now. But still use/go occasionally and still great food.

The buffet has a variety of curry styles. The appetizers and fried snacks are very attractive. Ice cream and cakes are also available. The restaurant environment is good and the staff are very friendly. It is worth a visit👍👍

Amazing place just wish doggy bags for food that is already on your plate at the end of your meal was allowed

Exceptional service. Item missing from the order and was more than happy to rectify and did so quickly. Would definitely recommend.

Jalfrezi had a funny taste to it and very oily, couldn’t eat it and madras was bland, lots of sauce with not much chicken

Food is lovely and fresh and polite staff

Great service, but the food was a complete let down as it had a limited variety and the curry’s had definitely been re used from the day before hence the awful taste across all curries. The starters were decent but were definitely full of oil which wasn’t the real issue but just the limitation and choice of options eg, cash and carry frozen food. The desert station was better than the mains+starter. For the price I would recommend better buffet around and it definitely needs massive changes by taking inspiration from competitors as it’s not a place that makes you want to come back. Also with nearly all the dishes not tasting good enough was a let down. Amazing service from staff, I’d like to say.

the lamb chops were CHEWY but other than that everything was spot on very lovely

I ordered a takeaway as I was by myself for the weekend. I have had quite a few meals in the restaurant as well as takeaways. I was so very disappointed with what I received. I ordered the meal deal for 1. I received 4 onion bhajis, 2 popadoms and pickles. Lamb madras and naan bread. Plenty for 2 meals. The order came a bit late (20 minutes). It was stone cold. I had to re warm half of it. The madras was the worst I have had. I always gave madras as it is usually the right heat for me. However I could only manage a couple of fork fulls. It was extremely hot. Today I gave the other half to my daughter who eats vindaloos and phalls. She couldn’t eat it. She stated that the spices tasted raw and she could even smell them. This was a waste of 19.99 in total with delivery costs. This has put me off ordering a takeaway from them again.

Food was lovely. Order was late so I rang restaurant and they sorted it out quickly for me. It was New Years Eve so I would expect they were busy. Very polite when they answered the phone. Definitely would order from here again.

Delivery driver dropped it off 4 doors down????? Not impressed

Excellent food, excellent service, fast delivery. We have never had a bad meal from Indigo and there has never been any reason to complain. Always perfect.

Bland cold food Do not rate this place. Although Staff were very good and welcoming Tiktok brought us here, but it was just a hype.

Honestly the best food every time. Good selection and always quickly replenished. Lovely attentive staff . Five stars from us!

Really good buffet - plenty of choice and very reasonably priced. Recommended!

We had the unlimited buffet which includes starters, mains and desserts. They had alot of great options available. Fresh salad with a range of sauces. Huge range of starters. Veg somosas, chicken rolls, poppadoms, pokoras, onion bajis, fish pokoras and about 8 types of chicken from nuggets to grilled drumsticks. There was a huge range of curries vegetarian a and meats. Went great with unlimited rice, pillau, chips and nan. Food was hot which was great...it was buffet food so not going to blow your socks off but had delicious Bangladeshi flavours and seasoned perfectly. They also gave us a huge plate of fresh sheesh kebab and huge lamb chops. Huge range of ice cream and desserts for a buffet so save space. Kids loved it. The best part was the amazing service. All the staff were so friendly and helpful. Amazing bunch of people had a great experience. I see why this place is popular. The deco was lovely too, kids loved the fish tank and were spoilt with the chocolates at the end. Defo try. Free huge car park in the back x

The food was absolutely amazing. The lamp chops were to die for. Really can't wait to come back

Went here Boxing Day evening had the all u can eat buffet Absolutely amazing food was tasty and hot staff were very friendly very good for the price deffo go again

Absolutely superb! Best madras we’ve had in a long long while. Will definitely be returning.

Can't fault it at all. I've never been for a meal on Christmas day as my tradition is to cook...my husbands is to go for a meal, we've compromised & always cooked...this year he put his foot down & said no, (as it's also my birthday Xmas day) so he gave me a few menus from local restaurants & told me to choose, I've always wanted to try Indigo so figured why not go. I'm so glad we did, the food was beautiful, the staff were all so friendly & helpful. Only one negative & that's the fact I couldn't eat any more as I was stuffed haha. I don't drink alcohol either & there were a few mocktails to choose from (not just 1 or 2 like alot of places). We will definitely be coming back for the buffet in 2025, them fish pakoras & the mango ice cream were fantastic!!!

Just eaten here 16 of us and can honestly sy the food was AMAZING..staff were lovely..nothing to much trouble..atmosphere was lovely..1st time I've eaten there ..will definitely be going again xx̌

we had no update so had to phone the restaurant. The order arrived after that

Best Indian in town! Tick all the boxes. We don’t bother with any other Indian restaurant/takeaway. This is by far the best. High recommended.

Starters and nan bread were cold and curries were lukewarm.

Amazing experience every time and we have Been going here for at least 12/13 years. Great food and great service

Arrived within stated time frame, meal for 1 is good value for money but could have been a bit warmer

Rude guy. Didn’t bring full order either not happy with the customer service

We’ve been coming to Indigo since we moved to Bury in 2012, in all that time we’ve never had a bad meal, or a mediocre meal, this is a fantastic achievement from Ziggy and the staff, the wonderful chefs and the extensive menu showcasing dishes from all corners of India, Goa and Sri Lanka, we recently went for the buffet but found it not as inspiring as the many dishes we’ve tried over the years so this time it was the Chettinad and Achari, both delicious with yummy spices and lime pickle, washed down with a bottle of Ozzy Chardonnay, at less than £50 for starters too it’s great value. Always a warm welcome from the guys and we’ll keep returning, the next visit will be on 22nd December for a big pre- Xmas takeaway. Thanks all of you for yet another wonderful experience.

Really disappointing tonight…the keema rice had burnt hard bits in, they didn’t add the salad and sauce that usually comes with the samosa starter, and they didn’t follow the order instructions which they normally do. It can be hit and miss with most places but I’m finding that it’s a bit more miss now. So disappointing as completely different experience in the restaurant.

The flavours are amazing in the sajaan curry, I'd highly recommend.

Starters are a no, the curries 👍🏻 the fresh naan and the ice cream are good. The mock tails fab to though I think should b £2 less as they contain no alcohol. Horne made cake and extra kebab/ lamb chops you can order are delicious. The picky bits and started which the kids go far just waste space and could do with an upgrade for the maximum stars

Masala was bland and the butter chicken didn’t resemble any butter chicken I’ve had before. Each Indian restaurant does do it slightly differently but this was nothing like a butter chicken. Chicken was tough and too much spice

First time here and came because it was recommended. Food excellent and stuff all very friendly

First time eating here,and greeted like a familiar face.Fresh hot food and clean restaurant,great staff served by Steph and others

Service was brilliant for a busy Saturday night. Asked to move tables due to getting a breeze and there was no problem with that and moved us to another table. Constantly checking if everything was okay, if wanting more drinks. Food was always fresh and kept coming out nothing was cold all very hot and tasty. Would definitely recommend coming.

Excellent buffet,clean,nice decor,pleasant helpful staff,well worth the money.

Spot on as always. I accidentally placed and paid for the same ordered twice, they phoned me to let me know and cancelled 1 of the orders for me and refunded me immediately. Much appreciated.

It was the frist time my husband and I have been to the Inidgo restaurant it was lovely I couldn't fault anytime it was my husbands birthday not only was the staff and food lovely but no they even brought him a beautiful piece of cake with a candel and was singing happy birthday it was lovely we will be going offen with family and friends too thank you to the staff .

I order takeaway from here regularly and it’s always delicious. The service is always fast, the drivers friendly, and I love the taste. Keep up the great work.

First time and won’t be the last 👍🏻

Great food, would highly reccomended!

Excellent definitely be ordering again

I cannot say anything negative about the food, as every single dish was fantastic. Wow, I am so impressed with this place and will definitely be back! I loved the design and decorations. Only thing I would mention is the food labels, I think a woman’s touch is missing, I would invest in some food labels so you can see clearly which dish you are putting on your plate. As I struggled to see which dish I am trying but saying that, all of the food is worth trying :)

Really good Indian takeaway will be ordering again

Great value for money, arrived sooner than expected. Will order again

This place really is excellent on all fronts. Service, delivery, quality and value are all 2nd to none. Will always highly recommend.

I recently visited this buffet restaurant, and I was thoroughly disappointed. The menu displayed on Google Maps is completely misleading—you can expect to find only about 10% of what’s shown. Even worse, the small amount of food they do serve is of incredibly poor quality. For example, if you opt for the mutton dish, you'll mostly get potatoes (90% potatoes, 10% mutton, if that!). If you’re expecting authentic Indian cuisine, you’ll be sorely let down. There wasn’t even a basic biryani, something you'd find at most Indian buffets. The rest of the food? Let’s just say it’s not worth mentioning. Now, let's talk about the desserts—oh wait, there are none. Yes, you read that right. No desserts to speak of, despite being advertised. As for the ice cream? It’s nothing but frozen chunks of ice—not actual ice cream. To make matters worse, the staff have no concept of customer service. They show ego and attitude, and clearly lack basic manners. They don’t even bother to ask if you have any allergies, which is concerning. Finally, don’t trust their Instagram videos—they are clearly misleading. Save your time and money, and go elsewhere.

I asked for vanilla ice cream but was served coconut ice cream instead. When I pointed this out, the staff casually replied, "It's coconut." Even after explaining that it was the wrong order, their response was indifferent, saying, "It's fine" They showed no concern for my feelings or the fact that I could have been allergic. It was a terrible experience overall.

food was cold and tastied off detergent

Loads of choice and all excellent quality. Loved it all and will return soon 👍👍👍👍👍

Everything we ordered was lovely and delivered hot. So would definitely order from Indigo again

Absolute disgrace of a place. 18 of us for a party where the food was of a mediocre standard. They can’t fit the people in that have booked and then proceed to slate their customers for not leaving to other customers that have had to wait. Definitely would not recommend on a Sunday.

Amazing experience all round lovely staff great food nothing negative to say we will return

Great flavours I ordered lamb rogan josh. The lamb was melt in the mouth. Excellent 👌

Food was nice even though I got the wrong curry

Due to a dietary requirement, ordering food can be difficult. Indigo catered to my every need, leaving me more than satisfied. My other half is also vegetarian (I know, quite the pair), they ensured there was no meat cross over leaving her happy and with a need for something to cool her mouth. Fantastic service, fantastic food.

Lovely people great food highly recommend this place

Horrible food and not fresh at all all the curries taste the same horrible food

Reasonable priced, tasty,tender chicken(not dry), very friendly helpful staff, highly recommend

Food came 2 hours after placing order, showed food was delivered but was not.

Everything in the menu is tasty. But staff are bit rude and they were rushing customers to leave early. Apart from that food is good. I called them to book a table but they said to walk in. When we reached there security didn't allow us and when we explained everything then he allowed us and staff is coming to our table to notify about time that we have to leave. Half of the menu they removed one hour before.

Food was amazing as always, and now they do the all you can eat buffet every day I’m going to be a regular 😬

Saw this place on TikTok so I decided to give it a try, we was greeted by Nahid an outstanding host and made the experience enjoyable. He is a fantastic waiter we would recommend this place and also highly recommend Nahid to everyone!

Was a bit worried from reviews but it was recommended by a friend. They weren't wrong it was delicious and super friendly staff. Would defo go again!

Food excellent, service very good too. Thanks very much! #groupbooking
