Prince of India in Torridge

Easily the best Indian takeaway in Bideford. All the usual fare plus some great chef's specialities (love the Naga curry). Generous portions too. Just make sure that you order direct to benefit from discounts on collection orders or free Bombay potatoes. You don't get those through Just Eat!

I got a delivery for four people and the food was absolutely amazing delivery time was good and the food was lovely and hot when it arrived the staff were very friendly and helpful would highly recommend!!

The staff are very friendly and the food was excellent. Very reasonably priced. Very large portions.

Very friendly, food pipping hot on delivery :-)

Great food!! Honestly I cannot fault the food here it’s so tasty and not heavy at all. We never go over £30 to feed 2 adults and a child

Very good indeed. Delicious. Quick delivery too. Would recommend to anyone.

The best Indian I had beautiful soft lamb my partner loved it big portions the best Indian I ever tasted thankyou

Very solid Indian takeaway. Would recommend more creamy options. Collection order was ready promptly both times. Just not 5 stars as quality could be a little higher in non-creamy curry options and filled naan's.

Called to book a table for 6, was told they are closing soon and the phone line went dead. On google opening times until the 10pm

Takeaway collection service was great. Friendly staff, great food and free portion of Bombay potatoes and naan

DO NOT ORDER OR GO HERE. The service and delivery driver is ATROCIOUS, the worst take away I have ever tried to order from. The worst. 0 stars from me.

NEVER EVER EVER ORDER FROM THIS PLACE. Cannot deliver in 5 hours notice?? And then aggressive when they try to deliver and we say we will not pay.

Food was very nice and the workers were very friendly and helpful. Reasonable pricing for good quality food

I have had several takeaway meals from PoI. I tend to go for chicken and the Tikka is absolutely superb. Great portion sizes, tasty, juicy. Highly recommended.

Nice food. Friendly staff and quick service. Would recommend a visit.

First class service complementing excellent food.

Good curry. Wife had a lovely lamb pasanda possibly slightly too chewy. I had a chicken Tika Masala, which for some reason was a quite bright red colour but tasted ok. Naan Bread were great!

Ordered takeaway from just eat, costing £25. What a disappointment. The chicken tikka massala was like a slightly flavoured watery sauce that just ran off my plate a so dished it up, the chicken was hard. The onion bhajee were just a shocking, no flavour to them, dry, just plain revolting. Bombay aloo thst consisted of boiled potatoes that were seasoned with something to give them a slight colour, I didn't even attempt to try them at all. The only edible thing was the 2 popadums and bottle of coke!! Will never order from here again.

Ordered a take away for a 7.30pm collection. When we arrived it was just finishing being boxed so not a big wait. The food was really nice and that normal puddle of oil on the top of your curry was non-existent which was a massive bonus. If we were in the area again we would definitely be ordering from the Prince of India.

Tempted back after many years because I thought that the food may have changed … it hadn’t! If I had closed my eyes I would not have known I was eating curry as everything was bland and completely under seasoned. Bombay potatoes were insipid blanched in turmeric to make them have some colour. Rice was unsalted and tasteless. The lime pickle was unrecognisable because no lime and mostly a tomatoey sauce and the mint yoghurt was thin and watery. The Mint Chicken and Chicken Tikka Deshi Balti were again insipid and both contained chicken that was not tender. So disappointing that money wasted and should have stayed loyal to our regular takeout/eat-in Indian. Please heed this advice!

Always my favourite take away in Bideford, but since taken over recently even better, Until today, ordered online mid afternoon, 1 hour late, after chasing up twice, then not cool, but cold, even when warmed up not nice at all, will deffinately not be using again, such a shame

Great food long wait to get it.

I live locally and thought I would try this Indian for a change as take out. Food took an hour and fifty minutes to arrive and was completely inedible. The meat samosas were a quarter the size of normal samosas and being so small could only contain half a teaspoon of filling at most which had the taste appearance and colour of mashed potato. Onion bahji's were the size of small golf balls and burnt to a crisp literally fried for so long there wasn't even onion flavour left in them. The Lamb Bhauna was disgusting. The onions weren't cooked and the flavour I couldn't identify but it wasn't edible and certainly was not a Bhauna. Whoever works in the kitchen is certainly not a cook let alone a chef. To top it off when tit did arrive the driver was irate, He also had his young daughter in his car. I mention this because as an 'appology' they included a large bottle of a coke and a soft popodum which was broken but the amount of crushed pieces in the bottom of the bag made up nearly half of a second popodum. Maybe the girl got hungry. To sum it up Iv'e lived in several places around the country and travelled extensively but the level of sub standard faire provided by this establishment is beyond belief. Totally disgusting and a waste of thirty pounds.

I’m new to the area and looking for a good Indian takeaway. I was a bit reticent when I saw some of the reviews but always think places deserve a chance and my optimism was rewarded. The food was delicious and the service quick even though it was a Friday and they were clearly busy. If they can pull it off next time I go I think I’ve found my new local curry house.

Very disappointing, over cooked and not very fresh

Lovely food always fresh and hot, even the breads. I love a hot curry so I have the madras or Tikka madras and we also get a passanda . Nice little touch with the Bombay potatoes too .This by far is my favorite indian takeaway and was lovely to be lucky to be one of the winners of the weekly competition so I tried something completely different and it was just as lovely .

DO NOT ORDER FROM HERE‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️ We placed an order on my 30th birthday! Quite a large order (around £100) They took the order and when I asked the price they told me £207. So I said ok and put the phone down. Did the maths with my family and phoned them back a minute later and said to cancel the order. They then asked why. So I said the price was too high. They then proceeded to say that they could do it for £107 and then when I said “I’ll ask my family if they still want it” he said “Let’s just say £100..” so I agreed and it arrived after a 2 HOUR wait. They said it would be 45 mins. So the food was stale. We was missing 8 popadoms and one of the main curry’s from our order. The quality was very sub par. PLEASE AVOID THIS COMPANY. ‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️

After having a some bad, ok and good take away deliveries form here... edited review after seeing they have improved their food hygiene rating from 1 to 4 stars! Good work!

Won the weekly competition. Perfect very nice. Polite when arriving. Cheers

Best Indian we've had since moving to Devon. Highly recommended.

Having travelled here for a holiday myself and my partner fancied an Indian Takeaway,I phoned for a delivery only to be told you don't deliver this far despite advertising a charge on deliveries over 3 miles.We decided to drive to pick up an order approx 8 miles.You also advertise free bombay potatoes on orders over £20 but what good is that when you can't get the order right,I ordered and paid for 4 poppadoms with all the sauces but I never got them,1 very fed up customer on what was meant to be a birthday treat to myself.Clearly checking the orders is failing and I'm out of pocket which as a holidaymaker I'll never see that money again.

We are down here on holiday from Norfolk and decided we would like a India take away rung up too get a delivery as we are not familiar with the area staying at park Dean caravan site we was told that they would not deliver that far thought it clearly states on their takeaway menu delivery over 3 miles with be charged extra so we decided too go and fetch it ourselves which was roughly 8 miles away only too get back too our caravan too find half of the order was missing my girlfriend rung too complain and was greeted with a last then friendly reply this is a disgusting attitude towards your customer s

Delicious food. Good quality and enough for 2 days! My only gripe is we ordered our meals in the afternoon online and requested delivery at 6.15. It arrived at 5.35. Not a problem. The chicken biryani came with a veg curry as normal but also some potato curry with a slightly different sauce. This was a bonus! We also had a garlic naan bread which was tasty and really good lamb madras. No gristle or fat. Highly recommended.

Ordered a takeaway from the Prince of India, as a tourist my wife and I really enjoyed the meal. Was a nice meal from start to end

Best curry we’ve had for a long time and order delivered on time.

Just moved back to Devon and decided to order in as it was too hot to cook. Got a chicken Saag, pilau rice & a few poppadoms. Asked in the order notes for the Saag to be spicy and it was absolutely spot on! Loads of tender chicken, tasty sauce, fluffy rice & crunchy poppadoms. Would 100% recommend - best Indian I've had in a long time!

Everything was absolutely mouthful best i had in bideford everything was freshly cooked. Highly recommended

This was a takeaway delivery - very grateful they delivered and were prompt. Unfortunately the food was well below par, the main courses were generic, vivid coloured sauces and the meat was over cooked. I always champion good food and restaurants but this was really very poor. The cauliflower bhaji was fine.

Awful gloop. All dishes looked and tasted similar. Truly dreadful. You would get a better curry at Asda. Pre-cooked meat (over done) with a generic sauce. No hint of fresh vegetables or spices. Appalling.

Website was really easy to use, option for collection or delivery, we collected and was ready on time. Food was delicious, all of it! We ordered a good selection with one veggie there was plenty choice. Would definitely order again.

Great food and excellent service.

Second time have ordered takeaway from here, Very impressed on both occasions, very flavoursome,good value for money, WILL definitely be ordering again, the only bad point was charged £4.50 for delivery, And took over hour and half to arrive, Second time we opted to collect, Still waited another 15 minutes after collect time, Just need to sort their timings out

Not a bad curry staff very friendly

Takeaway for 11 little pricey but good food delivered on time

Ordered Chicken Korma, mushroom rice, saga loo and peshwari naan... Plenty to share between 2 of us. The staff were very friendly and polite and the food was amazing. Cooked perfectly and full of flavour. Will definitely order again.

Very nice, had the meal for 2, would recommend.

really enjoyed the food the curry was very good and the onion bhaji's was amazing, would highly recommend

I order chicken tikka masala and chicken rogon josh with some rice and naan bread, the bouth curry's was full of flavour specially chicken rogon josh was perfectly cooked all the spices.

Wow amazing lived in bideford over 20 years best curry I've ever had here and I'm a birmingham girl so no a good curry hats off to the new management keep up the good work

Fooled by recent reviews of this takeaway so decided to try.....BIG Mistake. Ordered online but had to wait for 25 minutes past collection slot. Chicken tikka starter missing from order. Naan bread overcooked and left to go cold and dry. Complete lack of flavour or spices in Biryani . Had the appearance of pre cooked frozen food poorly reheated. Never again.!!

Items missing from order. Naan bread inedible... overcooked and left to dry and go cold. Main dish appeared to be precooked frozen and poorly reheated no evidence of spices in any part of meal.. Will not return.

Really bad food. Burned onion bhaji's . Mutton not lamb tasted Nasty. Sauce not cook. Kashmiri dish? I Don't think so. Lived in west London. I know Good Asian food.

Zero stars. Terrible food. Waited over an hour for Burned onion bhaji's Mutton bhuna, Not lamb Tasted Nasty. The sauce was not cooked. I've lived near Asian community's and know Good food. Do Not waste your money here. All other Asian food takeaways in bideford are better.

Came down from Southampton to stay with the other half, had a meal from Prince of India in Bideford Devon and found it to be best Indian meal I've ever had, the food was of an excellent quality and service including delivery was of the highest standards I recommend you try the food.

Really enjoyed the food delivered, high quality and with some extra taste which I have not previously enjoyed, well done and thank you, credit due.

The food is ok nothing special however I wont be going back , Twice now I have been in there a bloke in dirty working clothes has been sitting in the kitchen hes not Indian and certainly doesn't work in the kitchen . The other day I went in to order a curry he was there again no one had masks on in the kitchen , And standing around in the shop were 2 scruffy people waiting to deliver meals neither had masks on ,I just walked out and won't be going back,

Just had a meal delivered from the Prince of India, it was fab, delivered on time despite not having my full address, so tasty, onion Bargees yummy, everything fab thank you.

The best Indian food in the area, this is a little gem of a find. We’ve had 2 meals from there now and both have been so tasty. The vegetable balti is fantastic, as is the king prawn madras. Great value for money - would...

It's sooo tasty food. I wil come back here again!!!;)

Eaten from here loads of times, food is lovely, but tonight our regular takeaway was over 2 hours late phoned once got through after an hour and they said its just left, waited another hour, no show tried 5 times to call and cancel but...

While on holiday in Devon we tried the Prince of India and it was the best meal we had while here. The service was excellent and the food really tasty. We would recommend to anyone who likes a tasty well spiced curry

Its a standard indian, nothing special but no complaints either.

Its okay, nothing special but nothing to complain about either.

Not at all happy with the delivery service tonight sat 21st Aug - ordered as have done in the past at 19.08 and got a confirmation email back stating food order received and a delivery time of 19.52 all great so far - however delivery time comes and goes - Ok I get it, its a Sat night and I don't actually mind waiting - however my issue is 42 minutes after expected delivery time food arrives with no apology or reason for such a late delivery - if you are going to be longer than at least email or phone your customer

We ordered chicken tikka and a couple of milder curries. Although nice, all were almost completely lacking in spice.

Absolutely delicious Rogan Josh and Chicken Tikka Masala really generous portion sizes, meat tender, sauces spiced but not sufficient to overpower. Lovely lady answering calls patient and pleasant. Will definitely use again

Food was really good. Piping hot and great portions.

I live locally and have used Prince of India in Bideford for about 5 years, always great tasting food, and always such a variety of tastes. Tonight’s food great as usual and worth every penny.

Fantastic meal. First time order and it arrived fresh hot and 20 mins early. Not bad for a Saturday (football) evening. Every dish was delightful thoroughly enjoyed every mouthful. Thank you very much. See you again soon 👍

Have eaten from the Prince of India for years now and have never had any complaints at all, Order from here all the time as always delicious food and love their masala! We always receive a very good and friendly service from here, thank you!

Decent size portions, rice is very soft needs more texture, discount when collecting plus free bombay potatoes which are very nice. Good onion b, chicken pakora not great

Fantastic meal, quick delivery, very pleased

Have eaten from here a couple of times whilst visiting family in Bideford - delicious food and great service.

Have eaten from here a couple of times whilst staying with family - delicious food and great service.

Great take away tonight....ordered by phone and was ready promptly at 6.30pm to be collected as ordered. Yum!

Amazing food :) one happy customer 😜 I had a mango chicken and omg was out of this world it tasted so lovely fresh and massive chicken bits

Absolutely lovely meal would recommend will use again when come back on holiday again to appledore thanks

Bloody lovely no more words needed only problem is I'm on my hols so won't be able to have it again delivery was different 😂😂 (in a good way ) food was excellent full of flavour and both Curry's were spiced just right for our...

Highly recommend the Prince of India. Delicious food, great portions and super friendly people. Cater for us vegans well and know their stuff! Never disappointed!

The curry we ordered was lovely, although lacking in spice. The chips were awful, they had a green colour to them, very over fried highly recommended changing their oil.

Avoid these guys, shocking shocking service. Turns up hours late, can’t call them 200 times we tried no answer

Fantastic meal all round, fresh, tasty quick delivery and reasonably priced

Great choice of lovely curries well priced

Just visiting for the weekend but our family of 8 really enjoyed our Indian Sunday dinner!

Lovely food, friendly people. Just for other peoples information- Please note any reviews from before 6 moths ago are completely different owners/ staff :)

Had a take away, was staying in Appledore, very good food, ordered over the phone, no problem, certainly recommended if staying in the area

On a visit from Bridgwater, we were on the lookout for an Indian and thought we'd try these guys. Turned out to be the best curry we've had in years! Outstanding quality and great service. I highly recommend the Deshi Lanka Balti.

What a fabulous place for Indian takeaway. Loads of delicious hot food, with extras that we hadn’t ordered! Lovely meal, we were totally stuffed. Thank you for a wonderful meal, back again next Saturday night 😊

Very enjoyable curry. Next time I'm working in the area I will definitely order again and work through the dishes 👍🏻 The pathia was very tasty and had a perfect level of spice. The rice was very fluffy/light and well mixed with extras which gave it great texture and flavour. Great size portions. Thanks for the complimentary. I look forward to the next one.

Easily the best Indian in town! We regularly visit this place. Very friendly staff, always great service, food is delicious and will not disappoint. Would definitely advise ordering ahead on popular nights as usually busy. Recommended.

New owners. Very friendly and helpful and make a meal not even on menu. Been going here regularly. Definitely worth a visit.

We had a delicious takeaway from here. They use lovely fresh spices like cardamom and chili and the tarka dhal is thick and garlicky. We have vegetarian items from menu and will definitely be ordering from here again in the future.

Our favourite curry place! Super quick delivery, always accommodated for our vegan diet, and of course extremely delicious:)

When me and my boyfriend ordered we were skeptical because we heard the restaurant had changed owners. When I went to go collect the food, the people working there were so kind and added 2 free dishes to our order for no reason at all...

Some of the best Indian food I’ve had for a long time. Very happy. Delivery was a little later than expected, but that’s understandable as it’s New Year’s Eve. Well worth the wait though. Food arrived piping hot every dish was cooked to perfection. Highly recommended.

Had 2 different Curry's both amazing and full of flavour. :)

I visited the Prince of India last night for the first time, I was met with a friendly welcome, food was quickly prepared while I waited even though they was busy, food came as I requested and very tasty and not to hot as I like, will be coming back again

In my opinion, the best Indian cuisine in North Devon, with the best, friendly service!

Friendly service and great food

We were staying in Bulworthy Forest Lodges, awful telephone reception, but the owner was great in taking our order. Arrived an hour later, and was warm and very tasty. The price was very good, and everyone enjoyed their Curries. Thank you very much.
