Kashmir Restaurant in Cheltenham

WARNING! This restaurant is a scam! I had ordered Madras chicken curry, Shrimp Bhuna Balti and North Indian Garlic Chilli Chicken and all three dishes looked the same and tasted the same and what's worse all 3 dishes were ghastly in taste. No where near what they should tasting like. Complete disrespect of their respective regions in India. Also, their biryani was just horrible! It was like they served random masala glazed pulaf in the name of biryani. These guys are a scam in the restaurant business. Please steer clear from them!

Horrible food when we ordered take away. The Tikka masala and prawn balti masala all tasted the same. Received plain Naan instead of garlic Naan. Also the biriyani was flavorless and tasteless. When we spoke to them about it their staff was rude and not even willing to listen to us. Total waste of money and time. They should just shut it down.

Last time I had food from here was 20 years ago and it is still amazing food great quality tasty. Portion sizes are more than expected thank you will definitely order again

Absolutely fantastic! Honestly one of the best curry we ever had.... Proper authentic cuisine in a perfect atmosphere

A superb find. Atmosphere is relaxing. Customer service is excellent. The food is delicious and spot on. Peshwari naan is the best we’ve ever eaten ❤️❤️❤️ loved it here ❤️❤️❤️ highly recommended 😘😘😘

Excellent takeaway delivery. Really good food, always the place to go when I'm visiting Cheltenham

An ok Indian that is convenient if you are in the town/Brewery area, then this is an easy option for you if you want an Indian. There are better Indians around but it will do a job. It’s fairly small, so the atmosphere can be off a little bit when it’s quiet. I would avoid the onion bhajis because they are small and dry. be careful when ordering a chicken Tikka because there are two versions.

Excellent service and excellent food as always

Another stunning curry 🍛 from Kashmir in Cheltenham. Garlic Chilli 🌶 Chicken, Chicken Rezala, Pillau &nan...all totaly delicious. Highly recommended.

Amazing food and very friendly staff. Great location in town

Disappointing. Spicy curries lacked spice, menu limited and charge extra for chutney tray with poppadoms. Won’t be returning

Food was ok. Some plates were flavourful, however own plate was described as medium hot (Kashmir special) but lacked any spice and was rather bland. Service wasn't great. Sadly there was a large party downstairs, which led to our meal taking over an hour to arrive at the table, and staff weren't particularly apologetic to it. Appreciate when it's busy can be slow, but staff didn't really care. That said when they did serve tables they were friendly enough.

Best curry house in cheltenham ❤️

Group of 7 of us on a stag do. We had a fantastic evening. Food was to be honest the best I've had. Full of flavour and served hot to the table. Service was excellent and treated us extremely well. Great atmosphere. Nice restaurant behind boots a full recommended place to go.

Really nice staff, very friendly and always happy to help. Food is a 10 out of 10, had the chicken tikika pathia and is hands down the best curry I've had actually addicted 😅. The kashmire special nan is amazing too

Working in the area, great menu and food selection, a great chicken madras, very good service for a quiet week night, would recommend.

Excellent food, I had a chicken tikka keema bhuna which had very subtle flavours. Great atmosphere. Excellent price.

Best Indian restaurant in Cheltenham. Have been going here for years and have had a variety of curries, never disappoints. The Kashmir special naan is to die for!!

Great curry club evening for 12 - the Kashmir managed gracefully, served really tasty food in good portions, and treated us royally.

Good food not very busy so the food was quick

The food was worth the wait- Lucky Man Vocations.

One of the best Indian restaurants in Cheltenham. Naga chicken is pretty hot, never had a bad meal. Friendly and attentive staff

Amazing staff very polite and helpful. The North Indian garlic chilli chicken was beautiful and server's in a good time. Highly recommended this restaurant if you're looking for a place to eat

Have had several nice takeaways in the past from here but will avoid ever visiting the restaurant after this visit - the focus is on the takeaway side and not sit in. There was no atmosphere, tables near the front are listening to constant calls with takeaway orders coming in and tables at the back are cold and you gave the constant foot traffic from kitchen to front with takeaway bags. Not to mention our food: dry bhaji, stale poppadoms and bizarrely sweet curry (we did not order coconut based curries) - not a pleasant evening and extremely overpriced. Wish now that I had sent the food back (didn’t finish it) or complained at the time!

Worst chicken karahi ever. They have changed the definition of chicken karahi. I think for them chicken karahi is what they serve in karahi( a pot) but whatever is inside doesn’t matter.

I first used this restaurant over 10 years ago and again a few weeks ago it was great then the best king prawn vindaloo I’ve ever eaten and it hasn’t changed a bit still old school wonderful

Tonight was the second time I’ve visited the restaurant, and not only was the food absolutely fantastic, the staff were friendly, welcoming and down to earth. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone. Dan

I have to say as an Indian curry house, this absolutely tops it will. It comes to a well balanced and well cooked curry. That’s not overwhelming but completely and well fully spiced. The service is excellent and friendly and it’s a must

My husband and myself came to the Kashmir for our wedding anniversary meal. The staff were amazing. The food was delicious. Service was impeccable. All in all a lovely experience. Would definitely recommend.

This is the worst curry I’ve had in Cheltenham and to be honest they’re all pretty bad at the moment. Tasted of absolutely nothing. Was cold and the lamb was chewy and tough. It was also very expensive. I had to put so much salt in to mine and even then it was bland. We ordered two different curries that were identical. Either the good reviews on here are fake, or they only have one chef who isn’t always in. Appalling.

Highly rated Indian food. Staff were good to talk with, great food and great beer! I want to go back now! Relaxed environment. Comfortable seats, very clean

First class food!! Plenty of choice on the menu - and reasonably priced. I can recommend the Shahi Cocktail as it has plenty of flavour and is not spicy-hot. Very easy and convenient parking in the North Place car park.

Just awful! Chicken madras, dry chicken and sauce was like tin of chopped tomatoes with a hint of coriander! Lamb bhuna, lamb tuff as old boots and onion raw! Poppadoms tasted fishy! Egg fried rice was boiled rice with scrambled egg! £40 DOWN THE DRAIN!

Excellent food. As always , best Indian food in Cheltenham , and I have tried most of them. Friendly staff. Go check them out.

Good ambience, polite staff, good table service. Overall experience was fine. Good veg and non veg dishes on the menu. The roti was all maida flour, very chewy.👎 The sabzis were okay, not spicy. Overall, no value for money.

Got completely ripped off in this place £150 for 4 currys and a couple of beers should have known it was bad as we were the only people in their also as we were the only ones in there spending morey they started hoovering around us and told us leave as they were standing at the door we hadn't even finished our drinks

best food I have tasted in all Indian restaurants I have visited

Ordered as a takeaway and we were so impressed! Great tasting vegan options that were clearly labelled, something that is missing from other Indian restaurants in Cheltenham so I will definitely be ordering from here again or going into the restaurant!

Tasted of absolutely nothing! No veg or seasoning in the curries and sludge like texture. Ordered a chicken biryani and was given a lamb biryani, we don't eat lamb so had to pick it out of the rice. The chicken masala sauce was a very very bright red colour and had no taste to it at all, was just a sludge like sauace with a bit of chicken - no seasoning nothing! Clearly food dye was also used (and too much of it!). Rice dry and overcooked. The whole meal tasted so bland. I can't believe that the restaurant served this food. I'm almost insulted by the cook as he clearly had no care in cooking the correct food. Very poor i would avoid.

While we were in Cheltenham we fancied a curry night, we chose the Kashmir India Restaurant on Albion Street and enjoyed the meals we had and even went back a second time during our short stay in Cheltenham the staff were polite and friendly

Wow What an amazing place. Food in here was absolutely perfect, staff were great & it finished off an amazing day for us. Thanks

Great curry ... portions good size, even rice. the dish i had was YUMMO. Four stars, but being picky because we had to wait a little bit. Also no gulumjamin, but again the guy who served us did explain why they dont have on menu. Would i go back... YES, see you soon!

Unfortunately I can’t give a zero score so have had to give 1. I Spent 90 mins waiting for food despite only one other table in the restaurant occupied. When we first complained about the delay were told that they were waiting for naan bread, when we asked for the meal without naan we were ignored for another 10 mins only to be told “to be honest “ the meal wasn’t waiting for naans and would be with us in 10 mins. 10 mins later were told that they couldn’t provide one of our choices so if we could change our choice they could have food to us in 5 mins, not believing this we decided to cancel our meal and generously offered to pay for our drinks. We were not allowed to leave without paying for our drinks plus £12 for 5 popadums. The priority seems to be take away customers, sit down customers were treated as an inconvenience. I have regularly visited the Kashmir after race meetings at Cheltenham but will never do so again.

The food was good, especially the saag paneer and the tandoori naan. The restaurant was well decorated and clean. However, in terms of service, it was missing the human touch... "Can I get you anything else?" "everything ok?" would have meant a lot and meant 5 stars instead of 4

Food average, waiters abrupt, we were rushed out at 10pm on a Friday because they were closing

Haven't been here for many years and it was great to see the same guys producing the same high quality food. Nice and relaxed atmosphere and very good value.

Actually really good! Tasty food and friendly staff, thank you.

Small restaurant, small menu but nice food would go back

Very nice quality curry house, food was heated at the table to make sure it was hot and we all agreed that it was nicely flavoured without the oil that you often get in poorer quality restaurants.

Great place to eat. Lovely service. Good menu. Can recommend the Afghan Lamb which had chick pea base for the sauce. On edge of shopping district so lots close by. Didn't have to book and was relatively quiet, so think somewhat overlooked.

Fantastic food and friendly staff.

I can recommend this to anyone seeking a good curry in the area, service good and friendly , food great

The restaurant was extremely clean and a very comfortable ambience. The meals were delicious and hot. Cannot fault.

As a group of 6, we aim for a curry night per month. We have been twice this year and the Kashmir has risen to the top end of our favourite venues. It is not a big place so ensure you book ahead for groups greater than 4.

My favourite Indian restaurant both sit in and takeaway. Always delicious and the staff are great.

Just eaten here , great service, great food , hot plates , hot food . Would definitely visit again. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal here

Lovely food & excellent service.

Fantastic place to eat, good value and great portions. Cobra is always good with a curry. Really nice place

Great Indian, as good now as it ever was. Great to be able to go back now lockdown is over

I phoned the restaurant direct to place our family order. I don't use deliveroo or just eat as you never know what or when you're going to get your order. We ordered chicken korma, chicken tikka pathia and a chick madras with peshwari naan and...

Ordered a takeaway, I ordered a chicken makhani. When it arrived it was almost identical to my wife's Korma. NOTHING like any Makhani I've had anywhere else. Politely phoned to ask if anything had gone wrong and was answered with a rather hostile lecture about...

Brilliant service ordered a takeaway,the food was delicious and great value for money. COVID compliant, really friendly staff. Food arrived on time. I will definitely be ordering from here again.

Been going here 15 years. Still the best curry in town. Always friendly and great food. Not as cheap as it used to be but worth it.

Placed and order for takeaway. The food arrived over two and a half hours after the max order time of 1hr 20min so took 3hrs 50min in total for a curry to be delivered. Eating in is probably fine but there is no point ordering...

Easily my favourite Indian, all the staff are friendly & responsive, including the delivery drivers when they come in to collect! food is incredible.

Great welcoming friendly place , great quality food and the service was spot on , small restaurant and COVID compliant with friendly staff , will definitely be returning again

Delicious and some good veggie options

To Be clear I am a curry freak and enjoy a hot curry. I have also lived all over the the world and the UK with my job so have been spoilt for choice. Because of the above I feel informed to make the conclusion...

Great service, great food, small but cosy restaurant. Had a fantastic night and didnt feel rushed like other restaurants that want you out as soon as youve taken your first mouthful of food. Our food was full of flavour and not one of us left...

Unassuming from the outside, the interior was clean, tidy and COVID-friendly. Excellent curry at a fair price, although the Cobra was rather on the expensive side, and served with a smile. Clearly a lot of returning business on the take-out side tells it's own story....

Love Kashmir. Good food and the staff are wonderful.

Good standard korma and byriani. Social distancing adhered to without fuss. Would recommend if you are in town

Very Good value for money, nice food with good range, and stays open late. Clean and tidy. I would recommend and will return.

We had a very enjoyable meal. Cannot fault the delicious meals and friendly service. We would highly recommend this place for a great meal if you enjoy a curry. We be visiting again soon.

Really warm welcome and very friendly service. Varied menu with many specialities. All our dishes were cooked to perfection. Delicious!

Top food, nice and personable staff and reasonable prices!

I had a chicken tikka balti dansak garlic & coriander naan bread & a bangla beer the curry it’s self was floor less and the bangla beer that is made to compliment spicey food. & with more new dishes added to the menu I shall...

Ate here today, nice place friendly staff. Food is top notch

Ordered our first delivery since the lockdown and we were definitely NOT disappointed. 1. Advisory delivery time was spot on, so they are managing expections. 2. The food was hot, and the ordered items all included. 3. The chicken tikka pathia was to die for!...

Primera comida de aquí desde que cerraron temporalmente a mediados de marzo debido al cierre y subieron los precios al por mayor. Bien vale la pena la espera no deseada. Entrante, plato principal, plato de acompañamiento roti y arroz con el estándar superior habitual, no estoy seguro de reconocer los comentarios hechos el 13 de marzo, he estado comiendo aquí durante años y también he tenido comida para llevar durante los últimos dos. El conductor, como de costumbre, fue extremadamente profesional, golpeó suavemente la puerta principal para no tocar el timbre y molestar a nuestros hijos, luego retrocedió para observar el distanciamiento social. Gracias Team Kashmir, te he echado de menos.

Este lugar es impecable. La comida es absolutamente hermosa. Recibimos una entrega todas las semanas sin falta y la comida es siempre la misma, nunca falta un artículo, nunca es inconsistente: la comida es hermosa y el servicio es excelente.Desde el cierre de COVID-19, hemos tenido que ir a otra parte y, sinceramente, ¡nada supera a Cachemira! Siempre que vamos a otro lado nos decepcionamos. La comida es perfecta, muy sabrosa y de gran nivel. . . no podemos esperar a que vuelvan a abrir.

Delicious food, great friendly staff. Service was 1st class. Highly recommend this restaurant.

Expensive on drinks food lovely

Take away fue ordenado de uber eats y cuando llegó desempacamos un pedido con un 60% de artículos correctos, pero nos faltaban los elementos principales, por lo que ni siquiera pudimos armar una comida de curry adecuada. No poppadoms y curry. Para colmo de males, los chutneys no tenían poppadoms para acompañarlos. También hacía frío. Cuando llamamos dijeron que no hay nada que puedan hacer ya que están muy ocupados. Sugerido tal vez ordenar directamente en el futuro y no a través de uber eats.Este lugar solía ser mejor que esto. Si están siendo descuidados al empacar pedidos, ¿con qué más están siendo descuidados? El enorme desperdicio de dinero como naan y arroz difícilmente puede describirse como una comida para llevar. No volveremos

Excellent food and service, reasonably priced. My eyes are always bigger than my belly! I would include a photograph, but my plate is empty and my husband will have to roll me home.

My go to Indian! Best Indian cuisine around, full of flavour and decently priced! Staff are lovely and go out their way to be accommodating, wether it’s seat-in or takeaway.

Awesome night loved the food once again.

Very good food,thank you! Nice vegetarian options Friendly personal Good location Authentic spirit. Igoris. Lithuania

Two hours waiting on delivery, two phone calls and no order. Pathetic!! Advised the driver left two minutes ago and it has been another 30, so 100% a lie.

Really excellent table service. Delicious food.

This place hasn't changed in 25 years. Good north India food!

My 1st meal in Cheltenham was up there from london thinking the food and service would be good but felt disappointed with both food was average and service wasn’t too great.

Recommend the Garlic Chilli chicken!!

Great service and delicious food...

Great Indian. The food was good quality, the staff were quick and friendly and the price was on par with other curry houses in the area.

Très bel découverte que le Kashmir. Accueil sympa pour ce petit restaurant.Un mix starter végétarien excellent, des spécialités du Kashmir épicées mais pas trop pimentées. Le médium hot est plutôt soft.Un pilau rice excellent.Nous avons aussi testé les aubergines : vraiment bien.A refaire Seul point à améliorer: pas de pression.

Nuestros amigos de EE. UU. Habían comido previamente una comida para llevar de Cachemira con nosotros en nuestra casa y visitamos el Reino Unido nuevamente, fuimos a Cachemira para comer.Compartimos un plato de tandoori para dos como entrante y disfrutamos de excelentes platos principales. Cachemira es un restaurante pequeño e íntimo que ofrece excelente cocina india a precios razonables. Visitamos un lunes por la noche y estaba lleno, lo dice todo

Were in the area for only a night and decided to order a takeaway not knowing what to expect. Was super tasty and authentic. Asked for mild and it was indeed mild which was great! Really tasty... had several vegetarian options from the menu.

Visité Cachemira hoy en día desde Cardiff. Ubicado a solo 30 segundos de High Street. El servicio fue excelente. El personal fue amable y acogedor. La preparación de la comida fue rápida. La comida estaba muy rica. Perfecto todo el año. Nada de lo que quejarse. Sin duda volveremos cuando visite Cheltenham nuevamente. Sigan así chicos, lo están haciendo genial.

Friendly staff, a lot of dishes to choose from, quiet place and prices are more than reasonable.
