Namaste Village Cambridge in Cambridge

Great food, but ordered at 1802 for delivery at 1900. Was nearly 20 minutes late.

excellent food, went for the first time today and i will definitely be back, no complaints. i'm allergic to shellfish so i was excited to see a plant-based prawn dish on the menu - tasted much like the real thing!

Came here on the recommendation of reviews and reddit...and unfortunately I can say...IT WAS COMPLETELY WORTH IT! Some of the best if not the best Indian food I've had in my life (and I've been to India!). Great atmosphere, lovely staff and amazing cocktails as well. Would 100% recommend.

Excellent food, excellent service!!

5/5 Stars - A True Gem in Cambridge I recently had the pleasure of dining at Namaste Village in Cambridge, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. The restaurant offers a vibrant and welcoming atmosphere, perfect for both casual gatherings and special occasions. The service was attentive and efficient, with staff who were genuinely enthusiastic about the menu offerings. The food was exceptional, with each dish showcasing authentic Indian flavors and spices. I particularly enjoyed the Crispy Spinach Chaat and the rich Black House Daal, both of which were expertly prepared and presented. The vegan options were innovative and delicious, making it a must-visit for anyone looking for plant-based Indian cuisine. Overall, Namaste Village is a standout in Cambridge, offering great value for money and a memorable dining experience. Highly recommended!

Had, a wonderful friendly service with a lovely basket load of pure authentic an Indian meal after "UBER EATS ".truly messed the non delivery and a huge loss of funds to four senior citizens of 80,85 years plus .TUSHAL hearing the " non delivery"episode from the "Uber Eats" driver "MUKESH" made a personal pledge to deliver the original order to make sure four seniors would not have a hungary night and further more would not accept any payments for his troubles . Excellent, work from an enterprising young gentleman.Would, recommend ""NAMASTE'S service,food and cleaness to ALL.Will,always order our meals from "Namaste" .Most ,respectful restaurant.

Exceptional and authentic! I loved the food and hospitality here. Highly recommend it and will definitely return!

Very good - everything I ordered was excellent

Wonderful food, highly enjoyable fresh and tasty. We shall come again. Myself, my partner and step daughter will also be visiting.

Very nice and tasty food. Very friendly service and a good atmosphere.

Lovely experience and great service

What an amazing experience. Food so delicious and well spiced. I’m a meat eater but didn’t miss it at all. The veg biriyani with chick pea curry was the best curry I’ve ever had. Will definitely be back. Thank you Namaste Village

We just had dinner here and on a Saturday night it was packed, but that made no difference to the attentive and prompt servers. The food was absolutely incredible with so many different options, each cooked wonderfully and packed with flavour. The staff were happy to explain each dish, and checked in to make sure everything was to our liking. Couldn’t recommend more, we will definitely be back.

Amazing food, highly recommend!! The service was great and the restaurant had a very nice atmosphere too, even on a weekday. We will be back very soon! Easy parking right across the road in a pay and display car park - a rarity for central Cambridge!

Forgot the yogurt on my dai puri so it was SUPER dry!

The food was very good, location was perfect. The service was very slow, we had to wait for almost an hour for the food.

Had both as a takeaway and dining, both times the food was excellent. Lots of variety and great vegan options to choose from

The food is authentically Indian. Different starters rather than just onion bhajis and samosa. Nicer choices. Street food available.

best indian grocery store in Cambridge!! amazinggg the pani poori 🤌

Superb food, particularly recommend the chit chat platter to start. But everything was really good. Hardika took great care of us and made sure we were done without being over attentive. Thank you 🙏 Namaste

Very nice restaurant 👌 Staff very friendly and helpful!!!!! Food is amazing 👏 😋

Amazing diner. The 100% meet free food was so tasty and the menu had a lot of options. All the waiters were incredibly welcoming - with a big shout out to Jemin and Nima for being so nice to us. We would recommend this restaurant 1000% and we will be coming back very soon to try all the other very tempting options in the menu ☺️ A paradise for vegetarians!

Very pleasant service and lovely atmosphere. The food was tasty but a bit spicy

Great food, friendly and relatively fast service

Service is awful, the staff didn’t even bring me water after asking twice.

Went here for the Valentine's Day menu which was five courses, absolutely amazing food and lovely staff! Would highly recommend!

Good food, enjoyed the Valentine's menu. Majority of the staff were nice, except for the man who seemed to be the head waiter, who only acknowledged the existence of my girlfriend when he brought the bill around and realized she was the one paying. Rest of the night had been spent talking to me saying "hello sir", "what can I get you sir" and similar, with me often trying to let my girlfriend take charge of ordering on account of how uncomfortable it made us. Good food but overall experience left a sour taste in the mouth.

Dosa was not great. Chai is made with powder. Only positive is it is student friendly.

Me searching food in Cambridge and I landed here. Excellent, Authentic Food, Ambiance and Hospitality. Being vegetarian, i struggled to fil my stomach and I find Namaste Village.

"Very bad experience. The service was extremely slow, and it took a long time for the food to be served. To make things worse, the food was cold, which clearly indicates it had been sitting in the kitchen for too long before being served. Overall, very poor service. Highly disappointed."

Delivery driver is very kind and polite 5-start for him

We ordered the paneer butter masala main that came with 6 tiny pieces of paneer. Unbelievably overpriced for the quantity and the taste.

Looking at all the glowing reviews I was excited to eat here. However, upon being seated (Saturday lunchtime) it took over 20 minutes for our waiter to take our order and another 20-30 for just 2 drinks to arrive. The food… tastes ok, likely cooked from frozen. The pricing is extortionate. £2.50 for TWO POPPADOMS and some sauce .. mango chutney is not included (like it is in every single other Indian restaurant).. instead it’s another £2! I have eaten at dozens of Indian restaurants and this is a first for me. This is vegetarian and vegan food only and the online menu price is not accurate. For a starter, 2 drinks and 2 curries (no rice or naan) I paid a hefty £70. My advice? Go to London and have better food at a better place with better service. Note to the restaurant.. having 1 waiter on a packed Saturday lunchtime is not enough. I waited a further 20 minutes while no one came and ended up having to go the desk to pay. Employ more staff , lower your prices. It’s a bit of a rip off I’m sad to say

I am not vegetarian but I had lunch here today and I didn't miss eating meat at all! I ordered the masala dosa and a Thali and they were both so good. The Thali was full of flavour and fresh. There service was very good. I would definitely visit here again.

Lovely all round staff wonderful and good amazing! Coming again very soon. Thanks team. Also try the orange wine it’s beautiful

Great veggie food and friendly service. The dishes are very flavourful.

Really good and authentic food an friendly staff. The vegetarian "chick'n chilli" definitely gave us flashback to a previous Nepal visit =D

Very nice food and very humble and good staff..

Today, I visited Namaste Village in Cambridge, a Gujarati-style vegetarian restaurant, and it was an incredible experience. This was my first time visiting, and the food was so authentic. The flavors were perfectly blended, and the taste is still tickling my taste buds. The food transported me to India; it was a nostalgic experience. Namaste Village offers a variety of plant-based meats, which adds to the exciting dining experience. We tried the Beetroot Kebab, Surti Papdi Chaat, Naan Platter, and Paneer Curry. Trust me, everything was too good and mouth-watering. The spices were well-blended, and the flavors were simply divine. Words fall short of describing how amazing the food was. I will definitely visit this restaurant again and again. As a vegetarian, I often struggle to find authentic vegetarian restaurants, but Namaste Village is perfect. The ambiance is really good and decent, adding to the overall positive experience. If you're looking for a place that serves genuine vegetarian food, I strongly recommend Namaste Village.

Great place for pure vegetarian people like me, who don't take food from where non-veg is cooked or served. It has also option for No Onion and Garlic options.

I am very surprised that this place has such a positive review score. From my experience, nothing about the food or service was anything to write home about. We came without booking beforehand, and when we arrived there were plenty of tables available. However, we were told that we could not be seated until we had scanned a QR code at the entrance to book a table - which was a little difficult to do when the restaurant sits in a mobile dead-zone. We had been excited to taste the food, and to be fair the starters (onion bhaji, aloo bonda) were pleasant - though far from what other Indian restaurants can offer. For mains, we got gobi manchunrian, and masala dosa. The gobi Manchurian was alright, but the dosa was undercooked, and the sambar that came with it was essentially tamarind water. Overall, other Indian restaurants around Cambridge offer better veg food. The price of the items at this restaurant is extremely high for the amount of food you get, and despite what the owners will say in other review responses, the prices are definitely above market-rate. For a veg-only restaurant, this makes no sense, as vegetables are obviously a lot cheaper to buy than meat. Maybe the prices would make more sense if the food was remarkable.

Delicious! Really friendly attentive staff but not over-bearing. Food exceptional.

As a meant lover this was a unique and very pleasurable experience. Different but in a good way. Good quality and tasty food. Very good !

Really great restaurant (although there are barely any non-spicy options so be aware)

Great selection of vegan options, attentive staff and all at a good price.

At first glance and based on reviews, we were excited to visit but left somewhat disappointed. The place was dirty, the floors where greasy and toilets were filty and smelly. Also, it was quite cold inside. The portions were small and not as tasty as other Indian restaurants we have tried. And for Cambridge, it is well overpriced and overrated for what it is.

Amazing food and friendly relaxed service. We will be back.

Everything was perfect! Namaste is inviting and friendly. We will be repeat customers.

Great value buffet and really nice mango lassi

lovely authentic food, spicy but with some kids spicy-free options. vegetarian only with meat like substitute.

We chose the buffet option, really good tadka daal and marsala dosa!

Amazing food! Authentic Indian. Would 100% recommend!

Very Great food and friendly atmosphere we have odered the paneer Lababdar made by chef Loki Very great food …

Amazing food...Nice staff Portions , I feel bit small. Rest is an awsome experience

Amazing starters and chutney, manageable spice but slightly small portions.

Amazing food, only place to get delhi style food in Cambridge.

Excellent meal with very friendly staff. A1xxxx

Great experience Hardika was really welcoming and chef Rajesh made food that made us feels like home!

Amazing food, service !! :)))) amazing food as well

We had a lovely evening. Our server was in training and was great

Very pricy Masala chips or chips sprinkle with chilli powder… 🤣 Masala dosa, small portion and costed £11 Pulao rice very small portion Lemonade £7

Had a great evening meal at Namaste village, great food, great service and very comfortable ambience, we'll be back! x

Went with friends and had an excellent time.

I just finished the cookery course. It was really great. Learnt so much. I had lots of fun. Can't wait to go back.

Best chicken tandoor ever (and it's plant based)!! So happy I have found this place!!

Ordered papadam and two curries with rice and naan. I’m very surprised by the high ratings for this restaurant on Google. This was not my experience. The Korma had no flavor, and the butter chicken had a very odd flavor. There has to be better Indian in Cambridge somewhere.

The naans were delicious! So was mango lassi. Our son’s non-spicy dish was actually pretty spicy, so he could eat only rice.

Very tasty vegetarian/vegan food

Amazing food - definitely recommend

A truly disappointing experience. The vegetable biryani was stale, and the paneer curry fell far short of expectations in both flavour and quality. To add to the let-down, the packaging was substandard and unprofessional. Overall, it failed to meet even basic standards.

Slow service & food was terrible. Ordered Paneer butter masala and which was extremely sweet. Tasted like having a desert instead of curry

Fantastic food ! Great if you need vegan options too. Really delicious.

Favourite place to eat, love the people the food and the decor

Jaimin is so friendly and the best service we got!

lovely service and delicious food with various different options!!👏👏

Amazing service and some of the best Indian food in Cambridge

The nicest food and the nicest people. I’m a big regular here and they are always really nice and the food is incredible. The dosas are amazing so are the Gobi and puri. Also ir is reasonably priced with it being che are getting a takeaway. Love you guys thanks for the many years of great food!

The food and services was amazing.

Beautifully presented and so nicely spiced. Full of flavours. A joy for a vegan. Thank you.

I ordered the butter paneer and a kingfisher and thought I’d be in for a wait, 5 minutes later and Nicki Lauda’s come round the corner with Matt Hayes and the best curry I’ve ever tasted.

Very Friendly atmosphere and wonderful food! Want to try plant based chicken best place to try great food and great service by Jemin!

Such friendly staff and the restaurant environment is so homely, jemin was our server and gave us the best service.

Excellent service and food. Incredible meat replacements.

We went there to celebrate a Birthday of a friend really loved the environment and staff was very friendly and loving. And The food just wow, Must try there meat free Chicken Momos (i had two) and Jalebi Royal Delight.

It’s my go to indian food place. Top notch service and food. We were taken perfect care by jemin.

Very nice authentic curry! Would recommend.

What a gem of place! Friendly staff, cozy atmosphere, delicious food. Got the mushroom kadai with chili garlic naan and a ginger kombucha. It’s a little pricey (considering the amount of food) but well worth it!

Lovely food and the staff are so friendly and welcoming Can recommend black dahl and masala dosa

Great food and original Indian taste.!!! Hidden gem in Cambridge

The black dahl is especially good.

Very good food, black Dahl the best I've ever tasted, staff very attentive and friendly.would definitely recommend.

Nice place and nice staff to enjoy good food.

Good food, good ambience. Above all, customer service was best, good and helpful staff.

Great restaurant with so many vegan options that I’ll have to visit so many more times to explore. We are a tough crowd too with 2 vegans, 1 gluten free and 1 nut allergy between 3 of us 😂. Pleased everyone!!!
