It took a long time to get the food but it was very tasty! Nice that it had such a buzzing atmosphere on a week night. The decor isn't my cup of tea but in general I liked the restaurant!

First time at this place, certainly won't be our last. Food was fantastic, service was excellent, price was fair. Two starters, two mains, two breads, one rice, two drinks, pennies over £50. Very much recommended.

Best Indian i've had so far by a clear mile. I made an error with my web order this evening and didn't realise until I came to collect it. The guys were more than happy to replace it with what I thought I actually ordered.

Lived in the area for a while now and always use another local curry house , this week decided to deviate from the script and try the purple olive . Never again ! My initial feeling when I walked in was it very unwelcoming but decided not to judge a book by its cover, 25 minutes later a gentleman came over to take our drinks order , 5 minutes later the SAME gentleman came and asked if we had ordered drinks , this is where the red flags started and the problems unfolded . We ordered 8 popadoms with two chutney trays they brought one tray , one of the lamb dishes came out as chicken , one meal was cold and I cannot comment on my meal because it didn’t come at all !!! I was offered a complimentary drink to apologise and asked for a gin and tonic …. To top of the night what came was a passion fruit martini 🍸👍

We came here for the first time last night and everything about the experience was first class. It says something about how good a place is when it is busy on a Wednesday night! Everyone's food was amazing and the service was good and the staff were also a good laugh. Really enjoyed it here and this place is now my new favourite Indian restaurant!

Worst part is the service, the waiter literally said "your friend is crazy" because my boss was asking for a separate bill. He even DECLINED to take a photo if us on the table, saying "OH SORRY I'M A BUT BUSY" and he kept standing around our table for good 5 mins doing nothing. Idk if it was racism that I felt, but the worst hospitality service ever Food was okayish, probably because I'm Pakistani and I've had a lot better.

We ordered a takeaway and we were very disappointed.The onion bhajis were rock solid ..We also ordered a garlic naan bread which had no garlic on it but had chilli powder all over it .. The curry was nice but we did not finish the meal as the so called garlic Naan was nothing like a naan .. Very disappointed with the meal and will not order a takeaway from Purple olive again …

First visit but won't be the last. Lovely choice of food to suit all tastes even some non Indian food. The cost was very good and the staff were delightful and entertaining. Portion sizes just right and they really did everything to help you enjoy your meal. Be mindful they don't do puddings but everything else. Give it a whirl you won't be disappointed.

Had food here and it was beautiful. Lovely curry. Cocktails were very small though.. they call themselves a cocktail lounge but they only served 4 cocktails so hardly a lounge 🙈 food was immaculate though absolutely beautiful. So fresh, tasty and reasonably priced. The service was slow but food deffo made up for it and staff kept us informed and apologised for the inconvenience. Will be visiting again and now we use this for takeout too. Be warned however.. they don’t accept card payment for takeout which is a nuisance! Cash only! But you can pay on card if dining in the restaurant.

Really poor experience - ordered early online with a prebooked time of delivery so we could enjoy our evening afterwards, got a confirmation email with all details spot on, impressive so far. Rang them after they had missed the delivery slot by 15 minutes, kept on the phone for another 10 to be told eventually that our food would take an additional 1 hr 15 minutes as we were now at the bottom of the queue. Surprised and disappointed, no apology, no compromise, no attempt to help - not a good way to run a food business.

Pre booked a 7 people table for New Year’s Eve, when we got there they tried to say we had cancelled our table which we hadn’t, we’d paid a £70 deposit, sat down and we weren’t even allowed a minute to pick our food off a set menu hardly any options, rushed through our starters and mains, we were told upon booking there would be entertainment there wasn’t anything, we weren’t told it was a set menu, when complaining at the end about the shocking service the staff were very rude and dismissive, I’ve been a few times and never had this disgusting service, won’t be going back

Tried this place for the first time and found it quite disappointing. We was left waiting for quite sometime before we got asked for our drinks order. Our starters were lovely but then had a 40 minute wait for our mains. The one main was luke warm and really off putting but had waited too long for it to arrive to send it back. We wanted to order more drinks throughout our time there but we didn't have a waiter come over to ask us. Was told to go up to the bar to pay the bill even though some customers had a waiter take the bill to the table with chocolates and cloths to wipe hands on. Not sure why we had to go up to the bar to pay but that is very poor customer service. The food was actually very tasty but there is nothing worse than a curry that is just luke warm. It was very busy in there tonight but guessing you have to be a regular to recieve good service.

We dined at the purple olive on Monday 25th July 2022. We arrived 6.30pm and were greeted and seated by a smart well presented gent. We had our drinks. Poppadoms and tray of sauces. Fresh and delicious as always. The restaurant was very clean and immaculately presented as always as were the staff. We had our starters which again were beautifully presented on warm plates fresh and delicious. Then for our main we ordered 3 different main curries. 2 types of rice and (chips for the heathen). Peshawar NAAN. Our meal was delicious throughly enjoyed it always freshly made tastes fabulous. Well presented on piping hot plates with spotlessly clean cutlery. Napkins and tablecloths. Never had a bad experience or bad meal here in all the times, we have dined here. Top class absolutely delicious.. Service with a big smile. And very helpful staff especially 'saucy Rosti' waiter. Thank you very much. Keep up the excellent standards We love it here and will be back soon. Xxxxx

So bad I don’t know where to start. Cold room and cold food, cutlery placed in a bundle on the not wiped table, very long wait for food, queried allergen menu, (nan was apparently gluten free), the waiter said he had no idea but best to not trust the info! Salmon curry was rubbery white fish. Four of us dining each agreed just about the worst curry we’d had. I wonder if people doing reviews are confusing this place with nearby Holdi which is actually pretty good. There was nothing to redeem this place, sorry.

30/09/24: Popped in for breakfast with friends and the obligatory mooch around J&S. Full English breakfast and a mug of tea is value for money and can set you up for the day. The decor is nothing special, but as it's predominantly a bikers' café that's not what it's about. The tables are big enough and spaced out well enough to be comfortable with biker clobber on, but it can get a bit noisy when it's busy and, as it's popular, it does get busy, especially in biking season. There are some back issues of bike-related mags if you fancy a read during your visit, and there is some outside seating for when the sun puts in an appearance, but this is a bit tired and could use a refresh. Service is generally dependable, but can be variable and depends on who is on shift. We've always got what we ordered, but some of the staff have in the past been miserable or surly, which takes the edge off a generally good experience.
