This has got to be the worst place we've ever been to , broken glass windows in the "play area " garden equipment left out for any child to falll on , we messaged this pub the night before to ask if there was a play area and they said yes , we got there and It was truly horrendous , nothing but broken benches , broken glass windows , garden equipment including a lawn mower and all it's pieces lying all over the floor , barley any seating inside. I can only hope that the food from this place outways the shocking lack of health and safety ...but we will never know as I would never let my kids eat there.. if the people who own this place can see this , sort it out! You have the potential for a brilliant place..but right now jolly...it is not

I recently dined at The Jolly Collier on Lucknow Road, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The restaurant delivers not only in terms of quality cuisine but also in providing an outstanding level of service that truly sets it apart. The highlight of my meal was undoubtedly the Mixed Grill, which was nothing short of superb. Each component was cooked to perfection, with meats that were tender, flavorful, and expertly seasoned. The balance of textures and flavors was remarkable—succulent cuts with just the right amount of char, enhancing the overall taste experience. The portion size was generous, ensuring a satisfying and well-rounded dish that would impress any grill enthusiast. Equally commendable was the service, which was nothing less than perfection. The staff were exceptionally professional, attentive, and welcoming, demonstrating a genuine commitment to customer satisfaction. From the moment we arrived, they ensured our dining experience was seamless, with prompt service and a friendly yet polished approach. It is rare to encounter such meticulous attention to detail in hospitality, and it significantly elevated the overall experience. The only slight disappointment was the mint yogurt and chili sauce, which lacked the depth and richness expected in such accompaniments. Both were somewhat watery and did not offer much in terms of robust flavor, missing an opportunity to enhance the meal further. A thicker consistency and a bolder taste profile would have made a notable difference. That said, this minor shortcoming does not detract from the restaurant’s overall excellence. The Jolly Collier remains a highly recommended dining destination, excelling in both culinary execution and service. Whether you are seeking a memorable meal or simply a welcoming atmosphere with high-quality food, this establishment is well worth a visit. I will certainly be returning.

I have been twice now and everything about jc’s is fantastic. I have many food allergies and intolerances that make eating out a struggle, but this hasn’t been a problem. The staff and chef are more than happy to alter the recipes and the food is delicious. The staff are just wonderful. I highly recommend eating here and if you have any food restrictions just ask and they will help you

Decided to try the new Mixed Grill and Curry menu on Wednesday. Staff were very friendly and attentive, and each member of the party was very happy with their food. We ordered a large mixed grill that easily fed two - zero complaints with the mixed grill. One party member has a chicken tikka madras and I had a chicken tikka pathia. Both dishes were great. We all agreed that the naans were good here too - especially the peshwari! The JC is split into a pub (to the left) and restaurant (to the right). Drinks can be bought on the premises but you have to order drinks at the bar. Overall, a very good experience and all four of us were happy with the food and service.

Lovely local pub, we’ve been many times but tried a take away from the new Indian menu tonight and it was superb… so glad we tried this as we will definitely be using again, we had a large mixed grill a masala sauce and a naan bread… plenty of food and all for about £25 …. It was all delicious…. The photo is of how I’ve dished up at home but to be fair we may eat in next time as the eating area looked lovely 🥰

Wasn't busy when we turned up (5:30pm) but even so there was a certain vibe about the place probably because of the excellence of the boss and his assistant. My starter was the usual fare of two popadoms with three dipping sauces - spicy mango, chopped onion and mint yoghurt. I then sampled the best Indian dish I've had in ages which was chicken with mange tout and potatoes in a rich tomato sauce - unfortunately I can't remember the name of it and it isn't on the online takeaway menu. To this I added a chapati and garlic & onion fried rice. All washed down with a large bottle of Cobra - simply superb. Definitely going back if I'm in the area again.

Was having a great night at this venue, I think they did an amazing job at having a charity night for (BHS) British heart foundation, I’m all for that, however I was un impressed by the staff who threatened to remove us from the venue for turning the outside music up a little, as this boosted the atmosphere and ultimately our group was purchasing more drinks, I was then confronted by the licensee. this really put a downer on the night in my opinion, as he stated that they can’t have loud music on outside as the local neighbours witch is understandable, but I wouldn’t have music on at all if it caused an Issue, personally won’t be attending again spent a lot of money at the venue just to be treated like crap really. Very poor and venue had next to no customers in on a Friday night. Wouldn’t recommend as staff are very poorly trained but of embarrassment to the company.

Thought we would try this place tonight being as a poster is outside saying that it had won an award. The missus had her usual meal that she has from every Indian restaurant we ever try , which was Mixed veg biriyani , tarka dhal side dish and this time had a peshawari naan. She said the biriyani didn't seem like it used fresh vegetables and tasted like everything had come out of a tin and had been microwaved. The tarka dhal was the worst. Now when I've seen her have this before , it has been jam packed with lentils and garlic slices in a thick sauce with usually a layer of oil on the top where it has settled. The one from here was watery , had really no lentils or garlic in it and was just watery. She said the whole meal was bland and tasteless , but did seem peppery Now , I had mushroom rice , which seemed ok and a chicken rogan josh , which had tomatoes in it , which it should , but something in the curry had a vinegary taste , so not nice. The keema naan didn't seem to have an meat in it , as I could see , as usually from other Indian restaurants we have used , they sell keema naans that have a bright red keema meat in them. The yoghurt mint dip we were given to accompany the poppadoms , looked grey instead of creamy green , so much so , that my other half didn't even eat it ( I'll reserve my judgement yet , as I havent tried it yet). The restaurant has good decor , but being as it is in Bentley , the area isn't a good one and the site where it is , isn't the best , having two burnt out retail units nearby. Anyhow , not the worst curry , but not the best we have had , so much so , that i don't think we will have a return visit here.
