Omar Khans Skipton in Craven

Loved the vibeshere loved the tapas and mohitos had the best comments from the printer guys thank you for a quality and unique night

Great evening spent with the family in a pod, good vegan vegitarian and std menu also available tapas menu, highly recommended.

Omar Khans was good however it is now changed name and does not look at all appealing from the outside so have not been back in

Never been to Omar Khans Skipton but it has (had) an excellent reputation. Called on Saturday afternoon to check menu and, if possible, book a table. Nobody there but you could see that all the tables were ready. Rang to book a table but just got an answer machine saying nobody could take my call. However we decided to go since we were eating early and Khans is large. Unfortunately, as somebody else has pointed out, it has closed. (Funny but in this case I didn't check Tripadviser first, possibly because we live relatively close to the restaurant). So we went to the Aagrah instead and, despite not having a booking, they managed to find a table for us. So we did end up with an excellent meal, but just not at Khan's. Khan's has got a one star because it is closed. I am sure from the local reputation it had it would have been 4/5 had it been open. It would be useful if the answer machine message was changed to tell people that the restaurant has now closed. I can also only assume that despite appearances it has closed for good.

Just to let people know I went to Omar Khans on Friday and it was in darkness so I phoned the Bradford branch and was told the Skipton restaurant has closed down. Such a shame I will miss going there, I think it was a little too far out of town for most people,the food was good and the staff were lovely.

Warm welcome by the owner, very attentive and made us feel valued . We also found the chef to be friendly , cheerful and helpful regarding our choices, especially the younger members of our group. The food was good but the whole experience was let down by the waiter who was dressed in his outdoor jacket and trainers for the whole time, gave the impression he was just about to leave, especially with his surly attitude also. Would put us off making another visit which is a shame as we have had family meals there quite a few times before and never experienced this.

Welcoming front of house, food cooked how you like it, with helpful recommendations. Mild dish cooked especially for the little one. All great tasting. Fantastic loos :) Will be going again next time I'm near.

Hemos visitado este restaurante dos veces. Vivimos 45 minutos de lo contrario sin duda comer aquí regulares como yo cenamos fuera una vez a la semana. Y la comida india es mi favorita.

Had a very delightful evening at Omar Khans.. Amazing food and friendly waiters .. Iv had curries at other restruants but not to this standard.. I had the chicken Currie which was superb 😜.. My partner had the lamb .. Yummy! Had chicken tikka and sheik kebabs for starters both were suculant.. Starters and main both served piping hot just the way we like it.. Normally these are cold by the time they get to table 😔.. Will definatly be going.. This time with my friends 😜👍 👌 Great food guys!!

Decided to order a takeaway , has we had never had anything from this restaurant, revolting , cheap tandoori mix, sheesh kebabs you can buy in large amounts in shahs at Kly, covered with a curry sauce and sort of pilau rice, cheap Bradford curry at SKipton prices, never again !

As a family of five visiting the area from Queensland and staying "next door" at the Rendezvous hotel, we happened upon Omar Khans quite by accident. Barely two hours earlier we had been freezing our pickles off on the Cow and Calf rocks in Ilkley so curry was definitely the order of the day as rain fell on a bleak Sunday evening in Skipton. The food was wonderful but a special mention must be reserved for the utterly delectable peshwari naan. Superb. Ordinarily, they certainly wouldn't describe themselves as lovers of food from the subcontinent but even our two girls devoured their starters and main meals. All in all, very enjoyable.

We were staying at the Rendezvous Hotel on a Suoerbreak festive break but went a day early so opted to have a pre Xmas meal out We found about this place on Trip Advisor before we came read the reviews and must say we were delighted with what we had the food was excellent and the service was brilliant The price was out of this world and a lot less than what we pay at home Would definitely recommend

This restaurant ticked all the boxes! When I visited in December I was warmly welcomed by the exceptional staff, the venue was smart and clean and the food was delicious. I would definitely recommend this restaurant, it is the best Indian I've ever been to!

Friendly welcome and great food. As a family of vegetarians, the menu was great. Could choose own ingredients and have it cooked how you liked it. Even did a really mild dish for the 4 year old, who loved it. Good value. Nothing was too much trouble. Bonus for us, right on the canal so we went by boat and moored behind.

On my first visit, the early bird menu - served until 7 pm - was very good. When I revisited early December, I was advised, very bruskly, that the menu was not available in December, though I had checked the web page that day and it was still advertised as being available (they have changed it now). I pointed out they had entered a contract (by offering and my acceptance), and were therefore in breach, but the manager simply coarsely swore at me. I can not complete the rest of the review, as I don't feel it is fair to review on the basis of the first visit. I didn't have the opportunity then to progress with their head office, but it has soured my memory of the first visit. I won't go there again.

Arranged a surprise 21st birthday meal here for my daughter and 16 family and friends, the whole thing was excellent. The staff were attentive , the food was amazing and served very quickly and efficiently . The manager even brought my daughter a drink - on the house. They have an extensive Indian menu and also a good English menu which pleased my Mother as she doesn't eat spicy food. We brought our own cake which the staff brought to the table supplying small plates for everyone to have slice. When the bill came we were pleasantly surprised at how reasonable it was for so many people. Thank You to the manager and staff at OKs Skipton.

We go here with our daughter and her family for a mid week meal. The food is always good and resonably priced and they have a childrens menu, but will do a half portion of curry for a child. You also get a choice of medium or hot

Stayed in hotel next door, wasnt sure i wanted to risk it as we are not from area, but am very glad we did. Possibly the tastiest, freshest food in an indian ive experienced! Service was good, but we were early evening and it was quiet, toliets were spacous and immaculate , i loved it, and if such a place existed in the area I live ,i imagine i would eat there most nights. Can't stess enough how good it was. Reasonably priced too.Top marks well deserved!

The night before our wedding, we decided to indulge in an Indian and Omar Khans looked very nice. Inside the decor was ok so we placed an order. It went downhill from there ... on top of the waiter massively lacking customer service skills or manners, the popodoms were soft, the pickle tray comprised thick vinegar and diluted mango chutney, all three curries looked and tasted the same ~ gravy-ish with non descript lumps and the rice stodgy. My bridesmaid ordered a sparkling water which comprised an Aldi bottle with a straw ... costing £2.20. We naturally complained but our comments were merely 'humpfed' at. Dreadful dining experience and very expensive for a truly awful meal and service.

We were staying in the Rendezvous hotel and after reading the reviews we were looking forward to eating here. At 5.30pm we were the first in the restaurant, I ate off the early bird menu, my wife off the a la Carte. The food was flavoursome however was a little oily for our tastes. It represented value for money but we probably wouldn't eat here again.

We were staying at The Rendezvous hotel next door and had a read a review which recommended the restaurant. We were not disappointed, staff were really friendly, food was lovely and we were really surprised how quick the service was. Will definitely go back when we return in December

I have been working near Skipton for quite some time staying at the Rendevous Hotel next door.This is one of the best Indian Restaurants I have ever been to.It is clean, the service is efficient and friendly and the food.....SIMPLY BRILLIANTThe entire menu is great though the Chilli Chicken Starter follwed by the Tava Gohst Lahori main in unbeatable. By far the best Indian restaurant in Skipton.

We visited this restaurant because of a recommendation, and we weren't disappointed. The restaurant itself is comfortable and stylish, and the welcome is really warm and genuine. The menu had plenty to interest the various tastes of our family, and the restaurant was extremely family friendly. The food itself was delicious and plentiful, and there was real drama to the serving of the sizzling dishes. We had a wonderful, memorable evening, and would recommend this restaurant to anyone wanting a 'proper' curry night.

We go with our daughter and family for a meal the food is good and staff very friendly. there are a good choice of dishes to choose from on the main menu , they have a childrens menu and a set menu list

We went twice over the weekend because it was close to to the hotel, and I always enjoy this place, (we also went last year) the food is tasty, actually really tasty, we had a lamb curry which was very hot and out of this world! Naans are super as well. Staff are very cheerful and a lot of fun.

Great tasting freshly cooked Indian meals in a comfortable, modern styled restaurant conveniently close to Skipton Town Centre.

Average food, have had far better tasting. Ok for the money, 2 bottles of wine, several cokes, and food for 3 people - 67pound. Clean toilets and surroundings, nice big building, quite good location, good parking.

Stopped at the Rendezvous next door and dropped in for an evening meal. The food was excellent, spiced to my liking and I couldn't fault the service. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend from my experience and would definitely use again if in area.

Visited on a Saturday teatime and were offered the early bird menu (12pm-7pm) as well as the normal menu. At £8.95 for 2 courses this seemed like a good deal with mains around £8.95 on their own. The greeting on arrival was a little frosty, we sat in the waiting area but it was a few minutes before we were passed menus. I ordered half a cider and was asked which sort but when I asked what there was to choose from he said ‘Woodpecker’ and that was all! Others in the group ordered Kingfisher lager as it was on the menu but were told they could only have Cobra – and so the evening began… The food was distinctly average and although portion sizes were adequate our whole group felt every dish was far too hot – even a butter chicken mild dish (which we asked for especially mild as it was for children) had a real kick to it. As far as Indian restaurants go there is a lot of competition in this area and frankly, there are much better restaurants to try, don’t waste your money here.

Recently visited with three friends,we were made very welcome staff polite and helpful.the meal was delicious and no complaints from any of us.We will visit again when in Skipton.

We have just visited the restaurant again and have to say the quality of the food was fantastic and local people should support the restaurant as the food offer is far superior to some of the other Indian restaurants that have gained reputations in the area, they offer an excellent early bird menu, and the garlic naan is one of the best we've had outside of Goa. The other great thing is they will do the curry dish of choice just to your liking. Please do give it a try.

We ate here when staying at the hotel next door. The menu in the window was a bit sun-faded but it looked like it had all the usual Indian favourites on offer. Inside, we were warmly welcomed, as seems to be the norm in Yorkshire, and offered drinks while our table was prepared. The menu was a delight, offering all the standard favourites but also an impressive range of house specials which had some inventive combinations and thoughtful spice ratings.For once, we ordered exactly the right amount of food, taking the advice given with each dish as to suitable accompaniments. It was all delicious and we wandered back to the hotel replete.Thanks for a great evening and really lovely food. Highly recommended.

Called in here when passing. . It was a very pleasant surprise with friendly staff and excellent food. The naan bread in particular was just delicious. It's definitely somewhere I would say is above average and I would return another day to sample the menu.

We ate here for the first time last week on our way home from work. We fancied a curry and Omar's had been recommended. We arrived on a Thursday and took advantage of the 2 course early bird option. Im not always a fan of early bird menu's as I find they can be limited in their offering and you feel a little rushed to eat and leave before the main menu commences. But that was not the case here. 2 courses off the full menu (we ordered some additonal sides and a pickle tray too).The food was excellent. Really well cooked, tasty, presented well.The service was excellent. Would definitely eat here again.

On Thursday 30th July my wife and myself called in this restaurant for an evening meal. Going inside we were the only customers, so we ordered our meals with some trepidation, thinking it can't be nice. How wrong we were. We were showed the early bird menu 8.95 for 2 courses, there was a great selection and the food we ordered arrived at the table ... it was fabulous. The service was very attentive, and the toilets !!! so clean. I've been in 5 star hotels with not as nice. It's location right by the canal is superb. People of Skipton support this restaurant before you loose it.

Good value for money. Food was hot, well presented and staff very friendly. The decor was pleasant and in the 'summer' it would be great to sit outside. There was plenty to chose from the menu and also did some 'English' dishes.

Always a good curry, Mr Khan is a very pleasant fellow with a warm welcome and greeting. He even made my partner Ann her own special curry.Food is excellent and very well priced. Staff very friendly and attentive and certainly are knowledgeable about spice and their cuisine.Get a loyalty card and make your meal even more good value.I think on average we eat here twice per month and never been disappointed.

Visited on Saturday 25th July, as we were staying at The Rendezvous Hotel next door! We received an unexuberant reception! Restaurant was very quiet and service was very slow! That said, the food was lovely, the pakora portions are very small although it was priced very cheaply! We enjoyed our meal but it overall was quite uninspiring!! Would've been so much better if the staff had been more inspiring!

Environment excellent, modern and airy, loads of room, Omar often there to greet you personally, good parking facilities, food authentic and special requests catered for, excellent value early bird menu, if like your food hot, ask for "Asian style", staff are more than happy to give recommendations, perfect for guests staying at Rendezvous hotel, next door..

Very warm welcome, exceptional customer service everyone welcomed first or umpteenth visit every is equal nice and refreshing not cliche like some establishments. Early doors menu is exceptional value book between 5 and 7.

We visited the restaurant more by default than good planning last night, we were a part of 4, with dad and mum, it's never easy to find a place that ticks everyone's box, but omar khans did just that. The decor is lovely and the staff were friendly smart and welcoming. The early bird specials menu looks pretty good value, but we opted for the main menu. In fact mum had english food which suited her. The chicken wings were delicios but they are spicy, the chicken liver starter was also good. The currys were excellent, they were all very tasty, plenty of fresh spices had been used, and the garlic bread was the best we have had in a long time. All in all a great experience all round, so thank you to all. We will be back.

Visited when staying next door at the Rendezvous Hotel. We had the banquet for 4 and thoroughly enjoyed it, the sizzle starter platter was particularly tasty. Drinks were reasonably priced and they offer a discount for NHS staff which made it even cheaper. Staff were friendly and attentive, disappointed no live music when we were there which was looking forward to.

Visited last weekend while staying at the hotel next door. Food was superb and the staff were lovely. Food wasn't too oily like some Indian restaurants and really full of flavour. We had a real mixture of food and all was excellent.

Visited Omar Khans a week ago. Great food and atmosphere. Staff were very smart and polite. I ordered the Chicken pekoras and they were one of the best I have tasted. For mains I had a Ch Tika Masala and my partner ordered the Multani Khas, both dishes were very tasty, especially my partners multani khas. We then decided to share a dessert, we ordered the peanut butter stack which was beautiful and was very different. Everything was going fine until we ordered our coffees. A man was arguing with the staff about his food, and gradually he got louder and louder. All we could hear was this man going on about a hair found in his food. We could clearly see the management team were trying to calm him down however, he was a very hot headed man and he was having non of it. It seemed to us that he didn't want to pay his full bill. He then claimed that the staff did not wear hair and beard nets which is pathetic of a grown man to do as the restaurant has had a 5* rating in hygiene. It came to a point where the owner had enough and just told him to get out, and in a very disrespectful way the man threw change at the owner and shouted "that's all your getting". Who ever this man is you should be ashamed, there was also children in the restaurant too. Everything went beautifully besides this man at the end. Also a big thank you to the management team as they went around apologising to all customers, we also were told that the hair was blonde and non of the staff members have blonde hair so, this means it was done purposely either to get a discount or a free meal, it is very disappointing that there is the odd few people in our days who do this. We will be back, hopefully next time we won't get any disturbances.

We went for the early bird menu on a Sunday the food was good, I had nearly finished my meal when i noticed a HAIR in my food! It was mentioned to the waiter who apologised but was asked to tell management. Nobody came to see us so when the bill arrived I went to pay and mentioned it to the manager myself. He said the waiter apologised and to him that seemed enough. I expected the manager to offer us a discount or free drinks as a way of an apology, all I got from the manager was a response of...what do you want me to do? grovel?...I was fuming! By this time the owner appeared...Mr omar khan himself. He said the kitchen staff didn't wear hair nets or hats when questioned. Then the chef appeared without it on but said he took it off to come out to see what was happening. So there is lie number 1. by this time I had the chef the manager and omar khan shouting at me, i was sworn at and pushed. They said the hair wasn't there's and I had planted it to get a free meal!!!!! Voices raised omar khan then said to me pay your bill and F..K OFF!! And not to ever come back. (As if I would) the whole restaurant heard what had been said I slapped down a bit of change and walked out. When we drove off the OWNER, MR OMAR KHAN was stood talking to customers and giving me and my partner V SIGN AFTER V SIGN through the restaurant windows. I guess the 20 people or so who were there saw him too. My advice is don't ever go to any of this man's restaurants unless your happy to put up with a man who just wants your money and has no customer relation skills whatsoever when it comes to complaints. I have spoken to a few people about this, it seems it's the normal thing when you have a complaint. Once again KEEP WELL AWAY....

Visited on a busy Saturday night with family had a superb time. The Management cannot begin to say how wonderful Omar Khan & Abdul were. The service was excellent. The food fantastique will definitely return. The atmosphere & ambience was awsome & The restaurant itself impeccable definitely deserves 10/10.

If you love Indian food as much as I do, you long to trip over restaurants like Omar Khan's. It's a lovely family run restaurant with a decent, casual atmosphere. There is a full bar and Indian music playing to complete the experience. The food is quite nice and the service is, too.

Having lived in India for a time and tasted lots of Indian mutaji home cooking I would say this is the closest I've come across in a long time; not too oily which is good; I would prefer Bollywood music tho!

Went for a family get together.Food was worth the money and the staff were fantastic, friendly and nothing was to much trouble. Well worth a visit

this is a great restaurant. Top service and really good quality food. Portions excellent as well. Highly recommend the early bird two course deal, good food in good portions at good prices. We go once a year and where other Indians have cut back on quality during the recession this restaurant has not - as good now as it was two years ago!

Thought meal & presentation lovely I enjoyed my meal although my hubby wasn't pleased with his Rogan Josh very oily however will go again. Service was excellent hope all okay next time.

This restaurant is fabulous. The menu is interesting with some unique and original dishes. It has a very upmarket feel to it, the decor is tasteful and the ambiance is conducive to dining and relaxing. The food was slightly spicier than expected, so maybe if you are used to 'medium' choose 'mild', but the mix of flavours and textures was superb.

Have been a regular visitor to this restaurant now for over two years now which speaks volumes as to the quality of the food. The staff are very friendly and efficient and I treat omar and Abdul as friends . I can honestly say that I have never had cause for complaint as the quality and taste have never varied which reflects on the chef who I also class as a friend. I would like to say to anyone who is passing the restaurant and has never been before, give it a try. You will not be disappointed!!

Pickle tray was a jokeSizzling starter was ok but limitedMain course was bland I have had better stews Told the waiter it wasn't nice when he asked and nothing happened.Then told another and he offered to give us a takeawayThen ended up in a big argument for the bill and it was MY fault and was told not to returngood customer services??????

Ate early during the week - early bird NOT available in December :-( It was a cold day admittedly but the restaurant was not warm enough. Service was good enough but nothing special and that sums up the whole experience really. Starters were ok - tikka mixed dish. Meat seemed overdone. Mains were ok although the peshwari naan was excellent this wasn't really enough to lift my overall score or view. We had 1 starter, 2 mains, 1 x rice, 1 x naan, 1 x chapati and 4 pints of cobra - bill was £51 so about right. Would I come again? Possibly.

This was a repeat visit to the restaurant but with different friends. Everything was excellent from the arrival to the departure. A glass of wine in a comfortable seat whilst we selected one of the set meals. This included Poppadums & dips, an assortment of grilled starters followed by chicken and lamb. The quantities were such that we couldn't manage anything from the extensive sweet menu. The whole place is spotless including the toilets. There is good wheelchair acces. We finished by having coffee in comfort in the Churchill Room. Service throughout was superb.There is plenty of car parking and, if necessary, on the Keighley/Skipton bus route. It is also adjacent to the Leeds and Liverpool Canal if you want to tie up outside or walk the towpath.We all enjoyed the visit and considered this one of the best restaurants we have visited.

Called in here when passing. Had not seen any reviews all been before. It was a very pleasant surprise with friendly staff and excellent food. The naan bread in particular was just delicious. It's definitely somewhere I would say is above averageand I would return another day to sample the menu. The deserts looked good and didn't have any I was tempted by the peanut butter ice cream.

After visiting Omar Khans Skipton for the face time I can safely say this has been the best Indian restaurant for me in Skipton. 10/10 for the service we received, the food was luscious with the right amount of spices unlike some places where the food is overloaded with salt and spices. The staff were well presented, friendly & very welcoming. They also made some very good recommendations on what to order and it was all very much reasonably priced. I would most definitely recommend to friends and family which i have already done and myself and my family are looking forward to our next visit. Keep up the good work!

This was our first visit to this Skipton restaurant & was a culinary let down, we expected Indian food to the highest quality but received a very mediocre keema curry and a very average fish dish.The curry was full of gee and laced with salt, the meat used was tough and full of gristle and tasted like gravy granules had been sprinkled on it. The onion Bhagi starter lacked flavour and we're just highly spiced onion dough balls.We had rice and a naan bread to accompany our main course's along with a side order of aloo gobi. (this was flavoursome but average)The staff continuously asked if everything was ok to the point of being a nuisance.The establishment is accessible for the disabled and welcoming on arrival.Will we return? I think not, in my opinion we have been spoilt by some of the best curry houses in Bradford & unfortunately this one doesn't fall into that league.

We visited Omar Khans after a great day out in Skipton with all the family, we arrived at 5.30 and were greeted by a smart well presented young man who escorted us to the bar area and took our drinks order and presented us with the A la carte menu and also recommended the Early Bird menu to us. He also advised the kids on what to have and that he would make sure the chef prepared them mild (any dish!!!). We went for the early bird menu as it had plenty of choice and was only £8.95 each for a starter and a main course. The kids went for a mild chicken massala each which I have to say was awesome.We found the food to be excellent and the service matched this. Also the drinks were very reasonably priced and the cobra went down a treat.I would strongly recommend anyone to pop in if visiting Skipton especially if you have kids because they are recognised and looked after just as we adults were.Will definitely return again
