Mowgli Street Food in St Edmundsbury

Very average experience. Staff seemed overwhelmed and stressed, subsequently the service wasn’t great. The food was obviously mass produced and very average. One dish was very salty and the bread was terrible. Overpriced for what it is. We wanted to try it but will not be returning- we will go to a proper curry house next time we want to eat Indian food.

Bland food - lack of flavour; experience was too brief. Someone should have said goodnight at the end. Pricey for what it was.

Tables packed tightly especially tables for two, we may of been sat with the people on the two tables of four, where we were sat in between. Food is presented well and the service was quick. Food however was not great. Chicken thighs with the skin on served not even warm but tepid, put me right off. None of dishes were served hot, certainly off putting, must of been thrown in the microwave and out just as quick. A fifty quid lunch just made me think that I never ever want to go there again. Don’t waste your money on cold food.

We had visited the Oxford one a couple of years ago and really enjoyed it and as it was our anniversary decided to try one a bit closer to us. The food was excellent once again, however one dish got missed and we had to ask for it at the end. The staff we found not particularly friendly or happy, Oxford they chatted to us and asked if food ok and always told us what dish they had put on the table, sadly this wasn't the case here, just dropped on. table then walked off.....and. no napkin love here.....maybe a good idea! We will go back to Oxford again but not here!

Had a lovely dinner at mowgli. Great food with all dishes executed well and lovely customer service, will definitely be returning.

We visited here last weekend, never got to eat, because after sitting and waiting for half an hour nobody came to take drinks orders or food orders. So we decided to walkout especially as you are only given a 1.5hr slot for service and food. Very disappointed. I WROTE THE SAME REVIEW LAST WEEK ABOUT OUR VISIT BUT TONIGHT I CANNOT FIND ANY TRACE OF IT ON HERE. Or no longer on my profile so clearly someone has removed it. . . 🤔

I visited this restaurant with my daughter at the beginning of April. She'd heard great things about it. The decor was fab and we were shown to a quiet table. The service was good and the waitress suggested a few options. We love Indian food and just couldn't choose as there were so many lovely things to try. So different from the usual and great street food, beautifully presented and tasty. We both agreed we could happily go back again the next day and eat a completely different menu and still be pleased! Not sure where negative reviews come from .... all the people who were sitting near us had already been before and enjoyed it. Give it a try ... I've recommended it to several people ...

So the location is easy to find, the decor when you walk in is almost like a dream with it's soft fairy lights around the entire restaurant. This is even before you are seated, we were then asked if we would like to sit in their swinging chairs, obviously if you haven't, you should 😊 service was friendly and the atmosphere was relaxed which was lovely. All parties were driving so we had mocktails to start, I would highly recommend trying any of these. So delicious. Three of us ordered a few dishes each so that we could share a variety of the menu. Highly recommend the yoghurt chat bombs. We had sticky chicken, firecracker chicken, ruby wraps along with mutha butter chicken, paneer and another chicken dish, can't quite remember but along with our rotis and rice it was literally like a banquet. Danni was our main waitress lovely manners, attentive to our table and we even had the Junior Soux Kieron deliver some of our food which was a very nice touch. We had one of the deserts which again I can't remember the name but it was like a warm syrup sponge with coconut ice cream. The Mowgli experience was fabulous. All in all highly recommended. Thanks 😊

We were surprised to be able to book a table on the day but were excited nonetheless because we had heard great things. The decor is amazing as you walk through the restaurant but that is where the expectations started to fall. Our table was fine but close to toilets service was ok and food was ok but when I go out I expect an event. We honestly could’ve been in and out in 20-30 minutes. It felt rushed. We were told to order 2/3 dishes per person and we ordered 6 between the 2 of us…..I’m not sure it was enough. I was still a bit hungry at the end. Dessert helped but it was all a bit underwhelming. The tarka Dahl was so watery and quite small in the bottom of the dish. The puffed up bread we had wasn’t great. The lamb and fish curries were lovely though. Would we go back??? Definitely not. Sorry but I love a curry but this was average and way too quick!!

Awful service by amateurs it was an unforgettable experience for all the wrong reasons. Will not be returning and advise others to avoid also.

We came here for lunch on the 11th March the surrounding is very well done but contrary to the menu stating that food will come out in stages dependant on cooking time, ours all came out at once 6 dishes the food was teped to say the least, as though it had been prepared before hand and badly warmed up. To say this was a disappointment was an understatement as had been looking fwd to this. Given the glowing reviews my work colleagues had given me who had eaten at the london restaurant. £50 later and a disappointing meal

Saturday, April 6th, 2024: Our daughter made a reservation for us at MOWGLI in Bury St Edmunds. We arrived at the reception desk and confirmed our name. The receptionist lady could not find the reservation; after repeating my surname and spelling it (three times), I was asked if it was Bury St Edmunds MOWGLI that had been booked and if I was sure I should not be next door at COTE Restaurant next door. We stepped outside as there was a queue, and my daughter sent over the reservation. Re-entering the restaurant, another staff member checked my phone, and I had to spell my name out for the fourth time. Eventually, we were shown to a table, no apology, and walking up the stairs, I said to the lady who first searched for our booking, "Found it," with no response, and throughout the evening, she walked around looking very sour. Before I continue, I fully acknowledge that staffing is an issue in the restaurant business. The young lady serving our table asked if we had been to MOWGLI before. My wife had been to Bury St Edmunds a few weeks before. She explained that it was like Tapas (great, I love tapas) and would arrive in stages, which is fantastic. We ordered drinks, and it was clear there was a lack of staff; the staff there were working at a high pace, and the manager was dashing around. ** Some staff wear MOWGLI T-shirts, and the sour lady and the manager, I believe, wear casual clothes. I appreciate that this is the modern way, but it looks so shabby. I know the concept is street food, but please consider this: it could be better. Our order, which was to arrive in stages, came all at once, which was fine. However, the table needed to be bigger; given that we had six items, we needed more space—a very uncomfortable dining experience. Ruby Wrap—Very nice flavour, possibly my favorite. It's a little heavy on tamarind sauce but very nice. Lamb Chops were very flavorsome, with the right amount of spice, and the vegetables served with the dish were a tasty accompaniment. Mother Butter - I enjoyed this dish's lovely flavor, good combination, and light spices. House Chicken - Wishy-washy dish, inferior. I don't know how this got onto the menu. The rice was very uninspiring and needed some pomegranate jewels, maybe, and the Roti was acceptable. While having dinner, the restaurant had an undercurrent of disharmony. Staffing was the issue, and when ordering food and the dinner being served, you would have expected the server to return to check and allow for another drink order. This did not happen, and lost revenue for MOWGLI. We asked our server for the bill as she left another table, and she said, "Yeah," in fairness, when she did return, she asked about our dinner, and I pointed out that the House Chicken was not the best and she deleted it from the final bill. Staffing and training are the main issues here, so I only partially hold the staff accountable; two staff members handled the reservation terribly. I appreciate that technology can be unreliable, but at least an apology. I accept this is street food, but I don't get the concept mixed up; I am the customer. If I were to buy a dish from a street vendor, I would get better service and a smile at a minimum. The food was nice, but there was no "wow" factor, and when you deliver a new(ish) concept, there needs to be a "wow." I have no urge to rush back, and the service, food, and presentation of the two Indian restaurants I use are better than MOWGLI. I will be surprised if the chain is still in business in five years; I think you will step away once you have dined at MOWGLI twice, nice concept but limited appeal.

The whole concept is Indian street tapas, very similar to 'Dishoom' (a London restaurant, which is phenomenal) Service and staff were pretty good. The decor is really nice. The two people tables probably aren't big enough for the concept of ordering multiple dishes and you are constantly trying to shuffle around everything. There was no check back, which would have been a good opportunity to offload some of the empty pots/dishes and declutter the tables. The food seemed reasonably/ high priced. The house lamb was lovely, gunpowder chicken (I think it was) also very nice. I'm not a fan of automatically adding a charity donation onto the bill, it's sly. If a big company wants to donate out of its profits please do, I don't like putting it on the customer. The correct/ polite way would be to have a 'would you like to donate, yes, no' option on the card reader at the end. It may be small amount, but it's just rude. Glad we visited, probably won't be back in a hurry.

Having tried Mowgli in Leeds I was so looking forward to visiting this new Mowgli having opened an hour away . The food was just as good as before but the service really let it down . Our drinks order was taken followed by our food order but then we never got spoken to again . After finishing our food we waited for about 1/2 hour for someone to clear the table and we then asked for 2 more drinks, after waiting a further 30 minutes no drinks had arrived so we decided to get the bill and go elsewhere for drinks. No desserts were offered either.They did take a discount off our bill. Really need to work on the customer service side as I definitely won’t be making the hours drive to here again.

Four of us went for a meal before the cinema - the place was very busy but we were served in good time - we had 9 dishes between us which was more than enough and everything was very tasty. It’s very reasonable compared with other chain restaurants

The staff in here were great . Really friendly and explained the best way to order etc given that this was our first time .regarding the food the chat bombs were the bomb ! Really tasty ! The rest of the meal was ok but...

Great ambiance, warm welcome with good service all evening.Thank you Ryan and the rest of the crew who were smiling and friendly all night. Food was so fresh, tasty, hot and well presented. Helpful advice on how to pick dishes as it was our first...

Had a wonderful lunch , around my 8th visit to this delightful restaurant! The staff are always very friendly and welcoming. I will be back for more very soon!!!!

Food was nice, but nothing special. Team were really friendly, but a bit chaotic. A few teething issues but I’m sure in the coming months it will get better.

Having read some recent reviews which were negative about service, food temperature and being bullied about staying longer than 90 mins I was a bit anxious. I needn’t have worried. Seated straight away, courteous waiter who offered to explain the menu and concept and no...

My server Ryan was amazing! Very attentive and great knowledge of the menu. Made our dinner very enjoyable. 10/10. Will be coming again.

I had an excellent meal at Mowgli’s today, with amazing service from Tasmin, who was friendly and helpful. I will definitely be coming back!

Everything was delicious and the staff friendly and very helpful. We’ve tried different things on the menu and they did not disappoint. My favourite place to eat in town.

Went to Mowgli for my birthday as treat ,as the last time we went with friends was in December last year . Could not believe it was the same place , the food was not good at all . Portion sizes have been reduced and...

Fantastic food and excellent service. We all had a great night, our waitress Tamsin ensured we were well looked after and made our dining experience memorable.

Beautiful decor, great menu, friendly and helpful staff. Food was delicious. On the down side they will only hold your table for 15 minutes so best not to be late. Also the seats maybe uncomfortable for those who suffer with back, hip or leg problems....

I can't use enough superlatives to express my joy at finding Mowgli and being taken there by my daughters to celebrate my 70th birthday. The food, the service and the decor was superb. I will definitely make a return visit. I have been recommending Mowgli...

Had a great night out at Mowgli Street Food, Bury St Edmunds. I was a bit skeptical that the food was coming out as it was ready. But the only thing that came out individually were the Yoghurt Chat Bombs which were amazing. Everything came...

First the good things. The food was good (not great, but good enough), the decor was nice and the atmosphere was pleasant. The service was really disappointing. The welcome was lukewarm from someone who didn’t really want to be there. Our drinks order was slow...

Omg, how a restaurant can change in a short space of time. We visited in November and it was very good, that definitely can't be said now. Food all tasted the same, came out warm not hot, lamb chops were so chewy and full of...

Awful service. Wish I’d read tripadvisor before taking my wife for her birthday. The restaurant decor is lovely and as others have said the food arrived quickly but was on the lukewarm side. Tasted ok: no issues there really but as a Dishoom fan there is really no comparison and Dishoom wins hands down. And now for service: no check back on food, completely ignored after it was delivered almost like we were not there. The staff were focusing on seating more guests rather than attending those already in! Waited 20 mins for plates to be cleared: longer than it took us to eat the dishes. When the young lady was asked to wipe the table post mains we were incredulous as she took a blue cloth and wiped it onto the floor by our feet! And then furnished us with the dessert menu by flinging it into the table. As others have mentioned this is a training issue and probably one of supervision too. The food is ok, but the attitude is unacceptable and the 10% service charge is laughable in context. We won’t be returning sorry Mowgli: nice brand, poor execution.

Firstly the food was fantastic, we all enjoyed different dishes and it was all tasty, hot and beautifully presented. Cannot fault this at all. The service wasn't the best. The restaurant was busy with very few visible staff. It took 20 minutes for our drinks to arrive, very straight forward order. At no point were we offered any more but had to ask. It took some time to clear our table of mains. We were asked if we'd like to see the dessert menu of which we said yes. 15 minutes later they hadn't arrived so we had to ask for these again. Service charge was added to the bill, given the lack of service I think this was a little unfair. It's a shame the food was let down by the service provided which seems to be echoed with other reviews and hopefully something management are working on to make this a great place to visit as it should be.

This was our second visit to the new restaurant in Bury St Edmunds. Although we understand the dishes are intended to be small plates, most of the curries were similar in taste, with lots of sauce and very few pieces of meat/paneer. The food comes out quickly but most dishes were cold, other than the lamb chops however the meat was overcooked and dry. The service was the real downfall. The service at the table was let down by: - an impersonal waitress - having to call back the waitress when she didn't return to take our order - the waitress throwing the plates down on the table and not even setting them (we did this) - when the food arrived, we conferred with each other whether that was everything and a different waitress snapped back "that is everything" and walked off. - no response when we asked to take off the service charge (red flag! - it must happen a lot) - no ice in the wine cooler (nor was it refrigerated) so asked for ice for our drinks - no check back or attempt to check whether we were satisfied with the food and the service ***SERVICE 0 STARS*** We left feeling like we had inconvenienced the restaurant and that the price tag did not match the experience. Such a shame as we love the idea of Indian small plates and they need to very quickly invest in training their staff or looking at their recruitment. In a side note, we visited Everyman in their first week, another chain. They ensured the smooth opening of their new chain by bringing in supervisory staff from another successful site in London. This quality assurance of customer service was recognisable in every aspect of our visit. Mowgli could certainly do with something similar.

Hadn't been before had a fantastic meal very tasty all different levels of spice and flavor, however we did say that we hadn't been before and asked the waitess for advice and to tell us if we had ordered too much food, she wasn't helpful could have said start of with this then you can always order more but didn't so we over ordered and the fact that we could not eat it all and they stuck a £1 charity charge on the bill was a contradiction as there are people starving and they are throwing out our food, we were not offered a doggy bag so shame on you the charity tip was an oxymoron and an insult. Hasnt put us off and we would go back and start small and work our way up as we learnt the hard way shame the first experience was not as informative as it could have been due to staff lack of communication.

Very disappointing ! After hearing lots of good reviews, the food was the worst I have had in town. From the undercooked dahl to the overfilled with rice under each of the dishes ordered, it would appear this branch at least, needs better staff both in the kitchen and front of house. Neither myself or any of our group had a good thing to say about a variety of dishes ordered. Service was also poor.

We couldn’t fault the food it was all very good, surroundings were also great… But the service was terrible, we are aware this is a recently opened restaurant, teething issues could be expected. The restaurant was not full, we had a late lunch booking. The...

Had an amazing lunch, food was amazing, delicious, tasty and I finished my meal comfortable not over full. Good value for money and a beautiful setting. Will definitely be back😊

There were many attractive restaurants through Bury, streets blazenend originally with both modernism and colour. Mowgli attracted our attention. With an aesthetic of honeyed light, greenery, darkened wood, and timber rope, service was on point and attentive. I've always favoured Indian, and even my father,...

This was our second visit and did not disappoint. Service was exceptional and very quick. Absolutely no mention at all about the 1hr 30mins table turnaround. Waitress was knowledgeable, friendly and attentive. Food was delicious, beautiful flavours and every dish very different. We were celebrating...

We made a reservation and due to the reviews on here i was apprehensive about going and was going to cancel… so glad we didn’t! The waiter and waitress explained how much food was recommended to order and the food came out piping hot and...

3 stars is average, and this is exactly what Mowgli was for me. Not bad, not great just something in between. Service was decent, but not brilliant. The food was fairly priced, and cooked pretty well but it wasn’t that interesting to me from a...

1st visit here. Didn’t know what to expect as it is a chain, but really enjoyed it. Interesting menu. Lots of choice. Good service with knowledgeable advice from our waiter. Tasty and fresh food. Cocktail menu a bit limited!! Would definitely recommend this place. We...

This branch really lets the Mowgli name down. The decor is beautiful, food great, but the customer service is dire. We have been to several Mowglis which have all been brilliant. The Bury St Edmunds one however is nothing like the other amazing ones. If...

We gave this restaurant a second try as we first visited only weeks after their opening and we are disappointed again for 3 reasons. 1) First the table time booking of 1hr30min. They are obsessed with it! It is the first thing they said and...

Delicious food in a great setting, friendly and attentive service. Our server, Ryan was spot on! Staff siper friendly to my dog, which made the visit even better

Wow what an experience.. once you get past the menu as not your normal Indian titles you will find the food fresh hot and very tasty ... The staff are attentive and knowledgeable ... Beautiful surroundings and we had the experience of being seated on...

I love their food, but what the management are training the staff I have no idea. Clearly telling customers how long before they want us out is more important then good service. When seated we were told ‘you have an hour and a half on...

Very good street food Indian and totally different to typical Indian restaurant. Very tasty food and excellent options. Service was good. Highly recommend it.

Tantalising, delicious food and packed with exciting flavours. We tried 6 different dishes & devoured every one, leaving lots more on the menu to try next time. We’ll definitely come back & recommend this restaurant highly. The staff were really happy & helpful too!

Interesting place - you are encouraged to 2/3 dishes per person, the reason for this becomes clear when they are served. Whilst being tasty with good spicing and flavours they are somewhat small. It is a shame they do not offer a choice of portion...

Very disappointing. Dishes given great explanation but didnt fulfill expectations. Judge for yourself. We will not be going again.

This is the strangest restaurant we ever been to. The prices outside are very tempting about £8 per dish. We walked in asking for a table for 2 and we're told 'just sit over there somewhere', after 10 mins a waitress approached us and said...

Wouldn't let us eat there because the internet was down ? if you are turning away customers because of the internet you need a new system .

Went here on New Year’s Eve, the ambience and service was lovely but the food just wasn’t that great? It lacked flavour.. very disappointing!

I visited on the day they opened at the end of last year ans then again this evening. I must say, after the first time, I was really excited to visit again because the it tasted really good on our first visit- although service was...

The food here is absolutely delicious. It is a really nice way to eat Indian food as a tapas style restaurant. Definitely worth a visit.

Went for an evening with friends as they had visited before & said it was good. The food was so spicy that it was difficult to tell what you were eating. We had a mixture of dishes between us but frankly couldn’t distinguish between them....

Lovely food. We had yoghurt chat bombs (amazing you need to try them), Mowgli sticky chicken, Mother Butter chicken, House lamb curry, rice and roti bread.

We enjoyed it, lovely food and service. Izzy looked after us and give some great recommendations. We had 5 dishes plus 2 portions of rice. All lovely. My favourite was the lamb curry. Mango margarita good but too sweet for me.

Service was acceptable. Having not been to a Mowgli before., we were advised to choose 3 dishes each as the dishes were small . Way too much food and yet we are big eaters. We did ask whether what we had chosen would be about...

On arrival front of house staff didn’t create a good impression, there were no smiles and they didn’t seem particularly interested in us, but the table staff were very good, friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable about the menu. The food was brilliant, very tasty and as...

Mowglis in Bury St Edmunds is a culinary gem, offering a delightful fusion of traditional Indian flavors with a modern twist. From the vibrant ambiance to the attentive staff, every aspect of the dining experience is exceptional. The menu showcases the diverse and aromatic palette...

Disappointed is the single word I’d use for this place in Bury St Edmunds. Visited on a Saturday evening with high hopes that it’d be great. It wasn’t 1) Service staff were pleasant and knowledgeable enough but the delivery was painfully slow. One drinks order...

I had high hopes but was extremely underwhelmed. I’m not sure if this was due to the hype or just the very average food and service. It was my birthday and was taken here by my wife and children. I wasn’t going to complain when...

An excellent night out with friends at Mowgli. Great selection of very tasty dishes available - so many it was difficult to narrow down to 5/6 per couple!. Reasonable price too. Excellent, friendly staff. Thoroughly enjoyable evening out.

Visited Mowgli in Nottingham and blown away by our experience. Visited The Bury St Edmunds and chalk and cheese comes to mind. The chops were cremated, the chicken angry bird was tough. The side dishes were quite bland. We left the majority of the meal...

Just got home from a great meal in lovely bright restaurant. Staff were great especially the young man who served us. Two sons and wives were happy as well. Nice touch at the end the waiter on hearing it was my birthday presented a really...

Food was lovely. Every dish we had tasted great. Shared 6 dishes between the two of us. Service was fine. Looking forward to visiting again.

Overall the food was poor, having travelled extensively in India this was not what we expected. The dish we ordered, the butter chicken, (possibly the most popular offering) was unavailable, really? This was the start of service. When we ordered an alternative it did arrive...

Good food, nice staff, house wine was good 😊 not cheap but overall good value and they take CASH YIPPEE!

Was looking forward to trying this new restaurant in Bury. I was expecting intense flavours but was a bit disappointed. We chose a selection of dishes, one being the Angry Bird which was delicious. The prawn and lamb curries we chose, in addition to the...

I’d heard good things about this place so I suggested my friends and I go there for a meal. Upon arrival, we were given a tiny table by the entrance (no one would want this table). We asked if we could have a better, bigger...

I stumbled across Mowgli by chance, on a wet drizzly eve', after a full on work day! With no expectations or knowledge of the place! I was in luck, as the food was amazing, the flavours - perfectly combined, presented in little tiffins and the...

We have been 3 times now in the short time that it has been open, and have had a mixed bag really! I am giving 4 stars coz the food is great and the Service has been great on 2 occasions. Unfortunately it was really...

High expectations, rather underwhelming. Good value for money, don’t over order. You really only need one dish and a shared side, depending on how hungry you are.

The food and atmosphere of Mowgli's is spot on, I love the selection of food and the restaurant is a perfect setting for an evening out with friends. I came here as a party of 6 people at 7pm on a Wednesday night and the...

Was very excited about trying Bury St Edmunds new food offering!! I loved it .. very different from your usual Indian meal! Lots of flavours and sharing dishes is fun and a good way to test your palate! The refurbishment of this beautiful building is...

We were keen to try the new restaurant in Bury St Edmunds. I am not one to complain or do Trust pilot reviews but felt you should know how very disappointed we were ,which is an understatement. We booked for 5 people on 3/12 at...

At last - an excellent Indian restaurant in Suffolk! Food was great and tasted really fresh. Although the portions look small, the food was surprisingly filling so no-one came away hungry. Good choices for non meat eaters. Would recommend the paneer and Bel Puhri but...

Having visited Mowgli in Liverpool many times in the past, really excited that we have one locally. Food was, as usual great, but service complete car crash. One of the distinctive aspects of Mowgli, certainly in Liverpool, was the young and enthusiastic staff, all smiling...

A bit disappointing to be honest. Excellent service and decor but the food was not the greatest. Had really hoped it would be great. Maybe we chose badly

We have visited Mowgli London on several occasions and couldn't wait to try Bury St Edmunds, as it is only about 50 minutes away from home. Booked for my wife's birthday and went with friends. Atmosphere was great and not too noisy compared to alot...

Absolutely sensational food. Some of the best i've experienced in Bury. The gunpowder chicken was divine and the himalayan cheese toast was mouth wateringly beautiful. We were served by the most fantastic waitress Yaz, thank you very much for being accomodating and wonderful.

Excellent food. V tasty, great variety…. Fabulous decor. Great service from knowledgeable staff. Small plate concept.

Wow, really good. I don't usually like Indian food but... This is totally different from most spice restaurants I've been in. The décor is delightful. The service great and the food amazing. Definitely a place for return visits.

Had high hopes for this new restaurant in Bury St Edmunds. A really interesting menu, with a good selection of dishes and drinks, including cocktails with a Mowgli twist. Our waiter explained the menu, suggesting two to three dishes per person and that the food...

We wanted to try our new local restaurant so popped in for an early evening meal. The restaurant has been tastefully decorated, and we loved the swing seats! The tapas-style dining concept was explained. We ordered three curries, a rice and some breads. The curries...

First off, just want to say the food was really good, we had 12 different dishes and each dish was different and tasted good. Now for the service, it was good to start, asked have we been before, no, this is our suggestion, thank you...

We were keen to try our new local Mowgli and booked an early table for Friday before going to the Apex. Menu and concept was explained to us by Ryan, who did a great job, friendly and attentive throughout. We may have ordered more than...

From the moment we arrived we were really well looked after. Good advice from the young man that served us , we chose a number of dishes , the lamb curry and the sticky chicken were absolutely delicious. The whole concept of smaller portions of...

First visit to the newly opened Mowglies and it did not disappoint, fab atmosphere, great music, lovely lighting. Delicious mocktail, great menu with delicious food. All the staff were efficient and helpfull.

Great atmosphere, great building and nicely decorated. The waitress asked if we had been before and then explained the menu. Food was delicious. I had prawns and had been warned that they were spicy, which was true! We chose 6 curries, 2 bread and 1...

We visited this on a Wednesday lunchtime and the place was busy. A warm welcome was given as we were shown to a table and asked if we needed help with menu as we hadn’t eaten there before. We ordered drinks that soon arrived and...

Well I booked a table, arrived for 7.30pm booking and first noticed how uncomfortable the seats were and how basic the table was. Didn’t have a clue about the menu and I have been to India several times. No popperdoms, no naan, no obvious tandoori...

Disappointed, didn’t live up to expectations. Service understandably not polished - early days. But little attempt to explain the menu or enthusiasm for the concept. Very expensive for what’s it is.

Lovely staff and a pretty building. A new restaurant to Bury so we decided to give it a try. Although there are other restaurants in this group of n various cities, none of our London based kids had ever tried it. We were attracted by the fact that it welcomes dogs, so ideal for a spot of lunch after walking round the Abbey Gardens and the Cathedral: all genuinely dog friendly. Our dogs were made welcome but not fussed over, which is ideal for them. The Streetfood was authentic and delightful. There is plenty of choice in the menu, so we decided on the tiffin boxes as mains: that may have been our downfall, having selected one meat and one veggie, as we do enjoy vegetarian Indian food. The chef selects the dishes for the tiffin so we ended up with 3 portions of lentil or chickpea based curries, plus a very odd potato and tomato dish which my husband described as bitter. The chicken and lamb curries were good. There was a distinct lack of green vegetables, which I find odd in a Indian vegetarian selection. Food was ok, and I would come back for the Chaat and some drinks. Hopefully the mains will become a bit more inspiring: a touch more like Dishoom or Kricket maybe. I understand that this is meant to be what Indian families eat at home, but the ones we have eaten with certainly would have found the tiffin selection a touch dull. It did remind me of the university guest house in Bangalore. The staff are trying very hard, and hopefully in time the kitchen will be able to up its game.

Booked a table for Mowgli on their opening day as heard great things about this restaurant chain. First impression was good, loved the decor which was bright and sparkly compared to the old Bill's restaurant that was there. Very happy attentive staff and given that Mowgli is a different concept to the usual Indian restaurant, needed the waitress to explain how it works. Best way to describe it as Indian tapas but all I know is the 8 different dishes that hubby and me ordered were all absolutely delicious. The portions were excellent as well and even though we both have 'healthy' appetites both said 3 each would have sufficed. Needless to say Mowgli is now on our list of favourite restaurants in Bury and we have already arranged to visit again in the New Year with friends.

Just stunning… the food, decor, atmosphere, service… everything was spot on! From the minute we walked in we were warmly welcomed and had the menu explained to us. We were a party of 3 and chose a selection of dishes (including gluten free which was perfectly explained on the menu). Dishes we had never heard of alongside well known favourites, but either way it all was perfectly presented and tasted amazing. The decor is lovely and the music created a really good vibe. All in all I would highly recommend this restaurant and I’m really pleased it’s landed in Bury, will definitely be returning!

It was opening night so only time will tell if this is the 'real deal', HOWEVER......... A real buzz about the place when we entered with a genuine warm welcome from the front of house. The food was excellent and is served up as advised by our waiter on 'small plates'. We shared 6 x dishes consisting of lamb chops, chicken thighs, cheese on toast, chat bombs (amazing!) and could not fault a single dish. Fragrant, fresh & perfectly presented. All very reasonably priced with our bill coming to just shy of £70 including drinks and optional 10% surcharge which was well deserved by our faultless and friendly waiter. Great experience, looking forward to our next visit.

Went with friends on the day the restaurant opened, lovely friendly staff, the decor beautiful, food was amazing, lots of dishes I’d never heard of, bhel puri a standout, everything delicious, can’t wait to go back
