Jaipur Cottage in Bromsgrove

An absolutely find From the food to the service everything was excellent, the atmosphere created by the staff was excellent. I will be returning in the very near future. Thank you for a lovely meal 👍

Walked in and ordered a takeaway. Had a drink at the bar whilst waiting. Lovely food. Me and my partner both enjoyed it all. Definitely be back

We have eaten here quite a bit over the last few years, and as it was some time since we last went, we decided to give it a go. Saturday night, the 5 of us. First off, the small bar has 2 lagers on draft, both flat as a pancake, and with a strange ‘off’ smell to the beer. It took 2 of the guys who work there to let us know what they had by the bottle, as we all felt that would be safer. After about 15 minutes, we went to our table, where the poppadom’s were already waiting for us. They were stone cold and rock hard. The meals arrived and it was truly abysmal. The chicken in the curries was in small chunks – like the stuff you might get in dog food. The prawns in the biryani were zapped to death – imagine a prawn half the size of a maggot and as hard as rubber. Inedible and a disgrace to set before any customer. There were 2 guys on duty. One of them had filthy clothes, a ‘white’ shirt (who knows when it last saw a wash) which was flapping out of his trousers. You must laugh as it was so bad. None of us will ever come back to this place, and I recommend that you give it as wide a berth as possible.

Amazing food - best curry I've had in a long time. Service was on point Will definitely return again soon

Fantastic food always very good service

Best Indian best service best people who visited it compares to look after customers you won’t find anywhere better 💥

Arrived late,every part of the two meals were poor quality

Lovely food and cordial service

Chilly garlic chicken, nothing particular, I'd say sloppy

thank you very happy but the sheekh kebab was burnt black but apart from that the food was good also thank you as the delivery man was very recommended thank you all Mr Reynolds

Had a lovely celebration for my son's Graduation. Food was great and service attentive. Staff polite as usual I've been coming here for 20 years. Would definitely recommend.

Ordered online via the website, website stated ready in 10 minutes so went to collect the order, wasn't ready when we got in to which I understand the fact that it was Saturday night so would of took longer ( which I was shocked by the 10 minute notification via the website) the chips were stone cold and had to warm them back up, the curries were all leaked through the lids and you couldn't make out what was what ? Then we realised we had been given a tikka starter instead of a tikka main, I called up on the night to explain and the person I spoke with well let's just say he rubbed me up the wrong way. I wanted to be reimbursed for the mistake they had made and was told he couldn't do a refund because he presumed that I wanted everything refunded ( a £75 order that we ate most of it I would never dream of asking for the full ammount back when I have ate the product.) But instead of listening to the customer he was very defensive and argumentative I then waited 5 days and no communication from the manager like he said. I called back this evening and was approached with the same attitude to which he had now changed his attitude about sorting the refund out for the mistake they had made. But this was after he told me I wouldn't get my money back because i paid through and app. Which is not my fault but I am being penalized for thier mistake. After the person on the phone safe to say winding me up and having a full blown argument on the phone regarding this situation I said that I wanted the manager to call me back tomorrow then putting the phone down. Customer service is shocking I will never go there again

They forgot our Sag and £4.50 for 2 tiny samosa is a joke. Curry was tasty but overall didn’t think it was very good and very over priced.

28th Oct 23 Another amazing meal thank you. Had an amazing meal at this great Indian restaurant going back for more........

Fabulous Food, Friendly Folk. Thank you.

Thank you again great food and the best tasting balti around thank you for the chef and staff Inc delivery very recommended

1 of 2 mains missing, the first delivered curry/rice/naan were all freezing cold, missing dish re-delivered 2 hrs after order places again rice cold

Love the Jaipur. So pleased they deliver now!!! I love their Tandoori Chicken - we always know it will be quality; Thank you Jaipur team !

Perfect as always, this is why I’ll keep coming back.

Thank you first class service also a phone call about my order missing my sheikh kabab to give me back on my next order very recommended restaurant Mr Reynolds

Driver was very apologetic for being late, saying he couldn't find the house, and the quality of the food made it worth the wait.

Used to be so nice to eat here. Food gone downhill. Service good, but for the price yiy pay yoy expect good curries, naans and starters. Very oily, tastless and dry and thick naans! Definitely avoid

We went for friends birthday. Waited 1 hour for starters. Had to ask three times for drink in the end went down to bar and got it. Waited another hour and half for mains to come out and in the ended up I didn’t get a meal at all and some didn’t get rice with meal or naan bread. Good was served on cold plates and some of the food was just warm. So I will definitely not go back. Disgusted with the service.

Shocker Where do I start, ordered drinks when we arrived at7.45pm and took 20mins to arrive but ok they were busy. Then I had to ask if we could order food. Starters came but were Luke warm.Order second drink only again to wait 30mins for this.Waited then another hour or more for mains to come eventually me and kids were eventually eating but kids appetite had well and truly gone at this stage.Some food never arrived at all. Service was so poor.

hour for starters. Had to ask three times for drink in the end went down to bar and got it. Waited another hour and half for mains to come out and in the ended up I didn’t get a meal at all and some didn’t get rice with meal or naan bread. Good was served on cold plates and some of the food was just warm. So I will definitely not go back. Disgusted with the service.

I have to give it a 1 star as we will never go back there the starter was tiny and waited an hour and half for it then waited an hour for the main and it wasn't worth the wait. Do not waste your money it's not what it used to be. They even charged us 5 pound more than what it cost. Check the other reviews. I dont normally complain and we did tell them how it was but he wasn't bothered

A small and welcoming restaurant with friendly staff. An interesting menu with good choice of seafood. The food was of excellent quality and not over priced. Definitely recommend.

Always a genuine friendly welcome and hospitality. Excellent service, shown to your table straight away and drinks provided. Excellent food and the boss/chef comes out to meet you to make sure everything is OK. Can't do enough for you. Thanks guys for letting us stay to watch the penalty shoot out!!!

Exceptional food and fabulous service, will definitely visit again and absolutely recommend 5 stars ⭐️

lovely meal and lovely staff first time going there would go again I had the chicken tikka boohana reasonably priced would say update the menue on line as it slightly different to the main menue but overall excellent p.s there is no carpark but can Park on the road

We have been coming here for many years and the food and staff never fail to impress. Haven't been here for quite a while but the food and staff were just excellent as they have always been. Great night was had, fantastic tasty food. Well done everyone, and I would highly recommend this establishment 👍👍👍👍👍

Service wasn’t very good and the food wasn’t the best. I don’t think we will go again

Absolutely disgraceful. Was embarrassing. You could forgive the poorly dressed staff ( I’m bring polite) if the food wasn’t so poor but it really was the most utterly disgusting food ever. The onion baji looked like some one had sat on it and you could snap it in half it was that overcooked. Evening else was just as vile. We left. I don’t know how business have the audacity to expect people to pay for something so awful. We paid for what we tried ( I can’t say ate) but never ever again. The owners should be ashamed.

Been coming to this place for many years but never experienced a meal like last night. A new chef (chef Raf) recommended us a special (not on menu) lamb shank with sylheti rice and a keema cheese naan it was the best Ever made

Tawa was very good Chicken tikka masala was raw Nan bread was burnt and raw at the same time, really amazing to under and over cook nan bread, the Shish kebab was dry and very over cooked. The restaurant was in a good location with very friendly staff, restaurant decor was very nice and clean .

It was my birthday and we arrived as a party of 6 for 8pm. We ordered mains around 8.30 as they were a long time coming to take our order for drinks etc. We had some poppadoms while we waited and then sat back and waited for our mains.. We waited, and we waited and we waited and then had to go and ask where they were and was told another 5 mins. This was at 9.15pm..! At 9.40pm the meals finally arrived.. Totally unacceptable and we were toying with the idea of leaving by this time. 3 meals were passable, my meal was cold and had to go back for reheating and when it was returned after a good 15 mins it was hotter, but not very nice. The chicken was chewy and there wasn't much of it.. Two other meals were mediocre to say the least and there was hardly any food. We had ordered garlic naans of which only two arrived with the meals. One arrived not tasting of garlic at all and was dry and the strangest naan that ever was..I've seen better in supermarkets. My naan never turned up at all..! We gave up and left immediately we had finished our food, some of which was eaten only because we were hungry. We finally left this place, that we will never return to at 10pm.. Never have I seen such bad service in a restaurant and I've been to a few. My birthday treat was ruined. Thank goodness they accepted that we would only pay half the bill. No way were we going to pay full price for that. Apparently, they were having trouble with their naan bread oven, but at no time did they come and explain the problems they were having and never asked whether we were enjoying the food. I think they probably realised that we weren't, or were uninterested. Unbelievable...

New years Eve very busy but still my food as always was first class ! this restaurant is always consistent with its Friendly staff and excellent food

Had a lovely meal and experienced friendly and welcoming staff. Service was excellent and waiters went out their way to see us comfortable. Food came out hot and exactly as we ordered. Very pleased will return. Group of six. Thanks.

Just popped in for a drink and to check the menu out. Will definitely go back for a meal

Great food ,great staff , great service

Nice Indian restaurant, good portions at good prices.

Great service great food just like home cooking, absolutely first class! We had a beautifully cooked biryani each lamb and chicken the sauces were superb and starters were excellent all round great value, nothing tasteless or insipid and over spiced, so impressed!

Simply the best - traditional, home-style curry. The restaurant is a bit quirky - in an old cottage in Clent, but that adds to the experience! We've sat in and had takeaways (depending on tiers and lockdown differences in recent months) - always top notch food.

Situated in clent this curry house as stood the test of time, The food is brilliant and staff are really friendly I've been coming here on and off for the last 20 years same owners that tells you something 👍👍👍👍👍

Just as Always excelent food with good covid measures in place.

Usually good food, pretty good ingredients. Last two meals have been of a poor standard. We put last time to just a bit of a bad experience, it happens. Our meal yesterday was horrible. Prawns that were tough and like elastic bands to eat. Chicken was like rubber. A shame...

Haven’t been to this curry house for a few years so thought we’d venture out post lockdown and support the local business. There was a table of 6 upstairs plus us (2) and another table of 2, we waited over 40 minutes for our meal - we only ordered mains. My Vegetable dansak tasted nothing like any dansak I had ever tasted. It wasn’t unpleasant and I was starving after such a long wait on a very quiet Tuesday so I ate it but It just didn’t taste like I would have expected. Husband ordered Murgh Anarkala, found 2 prawns in it - Not sure If they forgot to make his “cheese naan” but it appeared to be a plain naan with a “burger cheese” after thought?! His meal was salty lacked flavour and we’ve both left feeling a little queasy. We asked for the bill and the waiter explained that because they were enrolled in the “eat out help out” scheme his boss thought people would be less likely to leave a tip and therefore had added an automatic 10% service charge!!! Surely they would be more likely to leave a tip?! I declined the service charge,told them the food was barely average at best paid and left. The waiter couldn’t be faulted and stated he could changed food etc (I wasn’t prepared to wait any longer) He removed the service charge and then offered to make amends next time we visit -I advised that we wouldn’t be visiting ever again, there was no way we were paying any service charge and the naan bread was appalling!!!

The food & drink was fantastic, the whole experience was brilliant, I would definitely recommend a visit, they made me a bespoke meal a combination of two meals on the menu, really tasty

Just returned from a most unimpressed experience. Met by someone who knew NOTHING about the food or drinks menu. Waiter arrived some 15 minutes later, he was pleasant and knowledgable. Poppadoms were good with great sauces. Starters were poor. I had the lamb chops. They were cremated with such a small amount of meat it really wasn’t worth eating. My wife had a Chicken Tikka which was ok, but cold. The mains arrived and were totally lacking presentation. My wife had a lamb shank curried dish which was very tough and full of fat. I had a Chefs Recommended Murgh Anarkala which was VERY AVERAGE. I asked if the King Prawns were peeled, I was told they were. Shame there weren’t ANY prawns at all. I know times are hard but there was ABSOLUTELY NO EFFORT AT ALL. There was some background music, for 2 minutes until it stopped. Then all we could hear was chefs shouting about their take away orders. When asking for the bill, instead of ‘certainly’ the guy just shouted in their language (sorry no idea what language) at someone out of sight and walked away. At no point were we asked if the meal was enjoyable, even though my wife’s meal was hardly touched. We were the ONLY people in the entire restaurant so absolutely no excuse for such poor service. We arrived at 6.45 for a 7.00pm booking and left at 8.00pm. No one else came during our meal. Such a shame, first meal out after lockdown and without doubt the worst experience in many years.

Owing to this covid-19 pandemic what has missed being able to visit the Jaipur Cottage nevertheless their exceptional takeaway service has sustained us during this time I'm well done to all of the team and hope to dine with you soon

I rang Jaipur in Clent to arrange a takeaway. I asked for the Monday to Thursday deal / offer on their menu. The response was as follows, “you’ve got to be joking mate, you don’t expect us to give the usual deals in the current circumstances do you”. The cost of the meal should have been £23.90 but we were told it would now be £37. A discussing attitude for a restaurant that prides itself on a community feel. Very disappointed that they need to profit from a very desperate situation this countries in. Last time I’ll use them.

We loved this cosy restaurant, food is outstanding, love the fact the food is served to the table from a trolley. The service is personal and is the best around.

Visited jaipur cottage today. As always wonderful food and excellent service. This is a lovely Indian restaurant in the Clent hills. Authentic In all respects.

Loved it, will come back for sure

Excellent food and service, with cosy feel.

Quite simply the best cuisine in the area, have eaten here for many years and love it every single time!

Lovely intimate restaurant with a wide selection of Indian cuisine. Quality of food and service is superb. Can’t recommend highly enough.

Average at best poor if I wasn’t being kind. All 3 main courses literally below par. Considering the location this should be excellent. But I wouldn’t waste your time or money. No attention to detail, few staff, frustratingly a lovely venue but not a lovely restaurant.

Food was good but the restaurant is need of a refurb. Very dated. We were tucked away in a corner with no atmosphere at all. Felt as though we were in someone's dining room.

The poppadoms were so stale i threw it off my pals moms head and it left a scar! I was told the food was fresh......frozen not sure what that means but it was dead

Food was good, had my usual and it didn't disappoint. The service was good, friendly and the rose given ti me as we left was a nice touch. Lovely, cosy, clean restaurant set in a beautiful location in Clent, would definitely go again

We went on Saturday in a party of 5. Not a bad looking little place and the staff were ok. Starters good, bread good, beer good but the lobster was inedible. Frozen lobster that was cooked so long it bounced if you dropped it on the plate. Not sure I'd go back to be honest. I've had much better for a lot less money.

Lovely food had a lovely evening

After reading the mixed reviews, we weren't sure what to expect. The restaurant is in a gorgeous, historic building (surprisingly joined to residential, as it looks like it used to be one premises). Oak beams, small rooms and loads of character. The popadums to start came with some lovely sides (but the pickle nearly blew my head off). We then had peri peri chicken starters, which was really tasty. I had a chicken tikka balti and the other half had bombay chicken. The portions were large and both meals were full of flavour. The naan bread was the best I've ever had, fluffy and light, non greasy and utterly delicious. The waiters were really lovely, chatting with us at the bar and checking the meals were okay. The only downside was the lack of parking (we have a large estate car and didn't want to upset the neighbours by parking outside their houses, as the roads are very narrow). As we get to know the area better I'm sure this won't be a problem. Lovely food, lovely service and a great price. We will definitely be back.

We have visited Jaipur several times over the last two months as we have just moved into the area.As with most Indian restaurants you can customise your meal to your own tastes, both my Partner and I have a particular favourite dish ( mine is Lamb Tikka Balti Madras with Fresh Chilli ) they get it perfect every time , we’ve taken a group of friends with us and we were made to feel very special, and service was perfect. I accept the wait is quite a while, but when the food is prepared fresh and not what is on the menu it’s an acceptable wait. We’ve not had a poor meal or anticipate having a poor meal at Jaipur, the staff are smart and tidy, the atmosphere is well above what you’d expect from a country Indian restaurant and we will return again and again !.

Ali Ali uddin oiy oiy oiy ! You keep delivering quality curry in a hurry. Naans must be the fluffiest in the world. Maybe out the way but worth a tasty trip out Go try and fly..

Visited Jaipur Cottage on way back to South Wales from Manchester with my 70year old Dad who is fed up of service station fast food. Found it as googled food nearby off motorway and phoned ahead to check we didn’t need to book - polite man answered and when we arrived was very welcoming. Charming building in a quaint village. Meal was very tasty and well presented. One of the best curry’s I’ve had. My dad was so impressed he is making a return visit with my mum! Service was friendly and polite. Well worth a few minute detour.

Very good quality food and excellent service in the area

I have been eating here for 20+ years, always had a good meal and the service is excellent. Its a quirky place but all the better for it....a real gem in the area.

Service very slow and unfriendly. Food was uninspiring for me. Bland, meat over cooked, and what I can only believe was squirty cheese inside nan bread. Certainly nothing I’ve had before. What was the worst though, is if someone is so drunk that they are ruining everyone elses evening with the constant shouting, screeching and arguing about their drinks when do you stop serving them large vodkas? I only know that was what they were drinking as I could hear from the other side of the restaurant. Surely you have a responsibility to other diners and also to stop serving someone clearly so drunk.

We passed this Bangladeshi Restaurant on a recent trip to Clent and thought we would go back and try the food. I have to agree with other reviewers regarding the staff. Some of the staff were standing at the bar and looked miserable. Service was good but they looked as if they did not want to be there. This is a family owned restaurant and if this reflects the owners version of customer experience, I'm sorry, but you have lost it. We were shown to our table and was full of expectation. The Seekh Kebabs came sizzling as I like them served and they were delicious. No sooner had I put my fork down the plate was whisked away. We ordered another drink. The main arrived and the garlic naan was thin, deflated and flat. The chicken madras and the Jalfrezi tasted exactly the same with the over riding taste of what seemed to be cloves. The rice was that tiny rice with spots of colour that supposed to be vegetables as we ordered vegetable pilau rice. It looked like that industrial processed stuff given to customers for cheapness. Although we ate the food, it is not our type of Bangladeshi food and in comparison to other Bangladeshi restaurants we have visited in Birmingham is not one we will visit again. Shame really as the setting and intimate room we were in is spoilt by the food and as others have commented on, the miserable staff. This represents our visit and reflects the experience we had on the night.

Have been a frequent visitor to Jaipur for a number of years. Always very happy with the quality, presentation and service. Would recommend, as not only is the food delicious but environment is pleasant.

lovely service, great food, bit over pricey for my liking but lovely and friendly peaple

We have tried here a few times and no matter what new dish we try, it just isn't as good as other local Indians like Five Spice are....

First impression’s not a warm welcome! Food very average! Some waiters had a little conversation, others were downright miserable ! Would not go back or recommend to anyone else.

Great food, great people, lovely restaurant 😎

Despite being rushed off their feet with New Year festivities, they provided a great meal for the two of us. And as a finishing touch, they gave my partner a rose. The only criticism is there was too much of it - we could have done with 'doggy bags'!

Food, ambiance and service excellent

Great friendly staff and nice atmosphere. Lovely village location and the food was really nice.

Biggest disappointment ever. The food was tasteless, side orders were cold, nan bread like a burnt crisp and paid almost twice the price to our regular restaurant. We were put upstairs on our own (felt like we were eating in our bedroom), listened to dated dance music and left feeling depressed and ripped off. The staff didn't care less when I told them that I can see why it is so quiet. On a positive note, we parked outside the door and we were in and out within an hour.

Had a lovely meal with friends. The Chicken Tawa was lovely. I have had. takes elsewhere and the chicken has been really tough but this was lovely . The nans were fluffy and poppadoms were really fresh. The only slight downfall was it was a little expensive but then you get what you pay for. Worth a visit definitely.

Meal out with an old friend. Had been once before and enjoyed it, wasn't disappointed second time around was also very enjoyable. Beautiful setting, very friendly staff and good range on the menu. Will hopefully be going again when the opportunity arises.

Every time I've gone here (for parties) my food has been extremely poor. The staff are very rude and argumentative and don't seem to care.

Delicious food, friendly and helpful service in quaint surroundings. Music would add to the atmosphere but otherwise lovely.

Take away meal for five on a Monday evening, very very tasty food. We had five different dishes with a variety of extras, all of which was cooked beautifully. Definitely give it a go, we will definitely be returning.

We went to the Jaipur and found the restaurant is very out dated and the staff were not very friendly.and when the food came it was very bland not good at all and will not be going back

This is a hidden gem, the food is Subaru. Lovely cold Indian beer on draft. Staff are great, really helpful and accomdating.

Worst curry I ever had every spoon full i had a mouth full of grease should of gone to Iceland

we are well looked after food is excellent. you have a rose at the end of the night, nice touch, i love going there ...

We always go for a curry most weeks and have a good selection of curry restaurants living in Stourbridge . However we fancied a change and decided to come hear after nearly 20 years since my last visit .

Service fantastic as was the food, just everything u would wish from a restaurant x the staff are very friendly and make you feel welcomed

If Carlsberg did curry house's.....

We visit the Jaipur most weeks. The food is always delicious and piping hot. Full of spices and depth of flavour. My favourite is Chicken Jalfrezi and boiled rice which is also the least fattening curry according to Slimming World. The family always give us a warm welcome and take an interest in our families which is lovely. Many of the diners have been going every week for twenty years. One of our friends went most days for a long time before he went to live abroad. In fact he travels all over the world with his job but still says the Jaipur offers one of the best curries. The only negative is that the decor is rather dated. And the hand drier in the ladies room could be more efficient. Other than that I can highly recommend the fabulous food.

I’ve had well over 100 takeaways from the JC and would rate it as one of the most consistent curry houses I've eaten from in 30 years over the whole of England. Normally you find some variation in quality, taste or heat levels but I can only recall one occasion when it wasn’t as expected, which is seriously impressive. Very friendly bunch who go the extra mile to look after you. I love the place.

Fantastic Currys and great service!! Highly recommend!

Went as a couple on Saturday evening to see if the food lived up to the reviews about its quality and taste - my husband and I love authentic Indian food and are so often disappointed by what is served up. I had the Tandoori King Prawn Bhuna - delicious. My husband had the Staff Curry which he enjoyed. The side dishes were good too. The service was friendly and the interior cosy with old world charm. We live too far away to become regulars but I'm certainly recommending this place to friends and family who live locally.

This was the best curry I have ever had ( and I've had alot of curries). Very authentic, wonderful flavour ( both curry and Dhal). Superb. Very highly recommend.Service outstanding.

I first visited this restaurant a few years ago and, to be perfectly honest, I wasn’t at all impressed and I certainly wasn’t going back. A couple of months ago a good friend said he’d heard good things and wanted to try it. I wasn’t looking forward to it but went along anyway. Well to say I was shocked was an understatement. The improvement was impressive. I’ve been twice since and it gets better every time. Jaipur is now my 2nd favourite Indian restaurant. A leopard most certainly can change its spots. Well done to everyone at Jaipur. I would & do strongly recommend.

Fantastic atmosphere, been coming here for many years, excellent food and fantastic staff.
