Rice 'n' Three in Bolton

Best Biryani and Nihari in Town. Do check out their menu. It’s delicious. Tastes best when served hot.

Simple place with lovely, tasty food (homemade style, not oily etc like takeaway style), polite staff. Set menu throughout the week which is helpful as it is posted online as to what is set for which day every week.

My regular stop whilst I'm in town. Good food and good staff 👌

We have been ordering from this place for years. Every Saturday we order Nihari the food was good. Two weeks ago I ordered and was surprised 3 small pieces of meat and the soup was water with no taste. I told him today when I ordered again I told my friends maybe the food is as good as it was before and I told him that the food is not good. After ordering I was surprised again that the food is very bad. I will never order from this place again. A big disappointment.

Been going to this place for 20 years really is the best in Bolton , In all that time always had great service with a smile and consistently amazing food

Really lovely place to come with some friends. Great food, great staff.

I randomly went in and was served by Ishmael, he was really friendly and helpful. I can honestly say this was the nicest curry I’ve had in years. I highly recommend

I have been coming here for over 25 years and never done a review, its about time I gave this place an authentic review. The food is always amazing, the staff are polite and friendly, the atmosphere is nice all the time, even when they moved from Great Moor St to the newer location on Bradshawgate, everything remained the same. The prices have always been fair too, thank you all at Rice'n'Three.

Absolutely amazing food every time 👌🏻👌🏻

Tasty and affordable food in Bolton. Curry has nice flavours. Rice with choices of 3 curries -veg &meat curries. Naan and chips were awesome too Donner too was yummy

A Bolton staple for many years. To get quality, flavourful, filling food at the prices is unreal. Highly recommend

Stunning authentic food, absolutely love the place. 5 stars all round 👍🏻

Great food at a realistic price . Staff are pleasant and friendly 👍

Rice 'n' Three have been around Bolton for many years and have always provided a good and varied selection of food which varies depending on the day of the week. The portions are good and overhaul good value for money.

Provided food for a wake I recently attended in Bolton food was lovely and well cooked.

Tasty, value for money, friendly, fast service. What's not to love.

What a wonderful place to eat. The food here is always perfectly cooked, meat is tender and the flavours are so terrific. Staff are very friendly and helpful to all customers and the prices are unbelievable. Such great value for wholesome and filling food. The best place to eat in Bolton in my opinion. I cannot recommend this place highly enough.

Neat, tidy place… a place where there is no processed food, all freshly made every day.

Very nice authentic food perfect every time

Been coming here on and off for years, the food is still incredible at decent prices. Lovely washing station for those traditionally eating with hands (myself included) which is a nice touch. I have unfortunately noticed portions are getting smaller especially with the meat dishes. Takeaway was 90% rice and barely any meat which was disappointing. Definitely go collect yourself/ eat in for best quality :) Only thing letting down is poor delivery portions. Mostly just rice.

Very good. The food is 100000/10 very yummy. Nice clean space. Loads of chairs to sit on the staff is very welcoming. Food is yummy. Always good service. Had delivery too. Delivery driver is very good kind person Delivers food within seconds. Thank you.

Great food and excellent service😀

Great food at a great price! Highly recommend!

I've been going here for years. I've not been for a little while and decided to treat myself. I was shocked, the food was no where near as nice as it used to be. It was very bland, which is not something that I would normal associate with rice and three. I was very disappointed 😞 maybe its because it was on the weekend, I don't know 😕

This is one of those spots which is genuinely good and nice to eat in Bolton I would definitely recommend sheesh kebab. This place does everything to a good standard I respect that.

Fresh authentic Asian dishes that taste wonderful every time. Staff are friendly and service is quick. Prices are competitive. I've been going almost every week for over 2 years now and still love it. Thoroughly recommend.

Very delicious Indian cuisine, lamb on the bone is super delicious

Taste ok compare to price portion size is very small,you can get double size portion for same price somewhere else

been goin for over 20 years this place but lately the kebabs havnt been the same they have funny taste to them made me quite ill , bit disapointed really , thers a diffent guy in there makin kebabs so must be the change in staff

Very bland looking, but don't that fool you. If you like traditional home cooked Indian food, get your lunch here. Brilliant selection, menu changes daily too. Tasty food as if it was cooked in a Indian household, hands down beats 99% of the westernised takeaways throughout bolton. If you miss the opening times try original chaat for a close 2nd.

Always a good meal, several vegetarian options

Great place, great food and great value for money!

Outstanding food such a a warm and welcoming place really nice people x

You can never beat rice and 3 ,always spot on , nice food and service by the great team who runs it .

Amazing service n staff. Food was excellent 👌 😋

Been here a few times now. I have to say I love the concept of rice with three curries of your choice but what is really special is the nihari on Saturdays. It really is worth travelling a way for. They serve the nihari from 11:30am onwards until it’s basically, run out. They close at 5pm

Should deserve 10 stars. Customer service is always brilliant. Food is really tasty

Our favourite place. Always delicious food with friendly service.

Delicious and fresh food! The roti was really nice and fluffy. Great service too!

Yummy food and the staff are so friendly and take care of the customers. Thursday is my favourite day. Lamb biriyani on the menu

Not eaten here for ten years. Still as great as ever.

Fresh and great tasting curry. Took a couple of pals, who were blown away by the nehari. I had lamb and two veg curries with a chapati and a drink and had plenty of change from a tenner.

The food was amazing, deffo go back again

Different curries everyday. Always veggie and vegan options.

Brilliant food all time and filling for a good price. Staff are very friendly and alwaya look after there customers Some great lads work here I can honestly say some are friends

Always great food and it's brilliant Value for money

Used to eat at This and That in Mcr before Rice N Three. Superb.

Definitely will be back, food was banging. Lamb melted in your mouth, curry had just the right spices. Great value for money and quick staff.

fantastic authentic Indian food

Supper clean and fantastic food

Good food but my biggest issue is ALL 3 curries are on one plate which prevents you from tasting each curry separately, as someone who loves their food, yet hates mixing different curries, sadly Wont go back again, there’s a similar competitor to them that provides the same service but with better food organization and their plates allow you to have wach curry separately.

One of my favourite places to eat in the whole of Manchester! I genuinely went 4 times in one week before they closed for Ramadan. The food is: fresh, filling, flavoursome and SO tasty. Everyone who works there is lovely. I’m looking forward to visiting when they reopen! ❤️ This place is truly something special!!

Asked for some sauce to be added to my dad's biryani (he finds it a little dry), and was told by the lady serving, "sorry, we don't that." No mention of any additional charge was made. I would have been happy to have paid a little extra but my request was refused. The following week, a customer in front of me asked the same lady for some gravy to be added to her rice. The lady serving was happy to oblige and was extra careful not to include any bones at the customer's request. The store needs to be consistent with its policy: there is no place for favouritism based on any grounds. Dad has been a customer there for years, and was quite upset when he learnt what had gone on. Needless to say, won't be returning.

It wasn't the best I have had The lamb kebab starter wasn't the tastiest but the salad was good Then I had half-and-half lamb on the bone and lamb keema there was 3 small Pieces of lamb and the keema was all sauce no mince the garlic naan was nice and thin

Been a customer since the mid 90's , as always awsome food at this place.

Always a pleasure being served by the lovely staff at rice and three. Always so welcoming and generous serving with a smile. Most importantly..the best and most tastiest, FRESH food. Always a go to when in bolton town centre x

I previously rated this restaurant. To be honest if i could give 6 stars i would. The food here is cooked to perfection. Curries that to me are more akin to home cooked food as opposed to restaurant food. I had keema curry, chicken curry with basmati rice and a roti to go with it. Words would be inadequate. Food cooked with love with depth of flavour. Beautiful, fresh and absolutely delicious. Can't praise this eatery enough. Highly highly recommended. Great thanks to those who cooked it. If this was my last meal, i would die happy.

Amazing food so nice and fresh just wish you did chicken tikka or madras curry ever day some days I really won't it but it not on menu lol

One of the best in Bolton, been going for 8 years straight every Friday, staff are mint to

Still eating id give it more stars if I was allowed

My family have been enjoying your fantastic food for years. It's so great to see all the familiar faces that have been working there for so long! Affordable, authentic food... Rice 'n' Three is the place!

Food always fresh service always quick and the family that runs the business are friendly and welcoming all everyday and twice on a Sunday

Quality fresh foods all the time here well made and quickly served

It's OK. Portion of chops were a bit expensive, and caters for people who are not use to spice.

Great for takeaway or dining inside.

The best food I’ve ever had. I used to live local and go at least once a week. I’ve moved to Wigan now- but still drive to Bolton for it. Great fresh food that leaves you with a full belly. Not been as much because of lockdown and that’s disappointing. Highly recommend

Best place to eat in Bolton. Great food, fast service and very pleasant staff. Worth more than 5stars in my opinion. Each day has a different menu, so you tend have a 'favourite day'. Mine is Monday-Saturday 😀 I spend that much time there, so was thinking of having my mail redirected.

Great kebabs curry served with a 😃

Very popular with everyone at work. We must go at least once a week.

I've been inside this place once, it was many years ago, but the place was clean and well organised. Since we are in the unique situation we are in, like many other restaurants, Rice 'N Three finally went to delivering. I hope it's doing well for them because the food here is just fantastic. Always fresh and tasty food every time. The delivery driver is great too, follows all delivery instructions to a tea. I've never had a problem with an order or delivery yet, and I've placed many through Just-Eat. If the owners ever see this review, please keep the delivery service going for us customers who can't get to your restaurant for various reasons.

Great customer service quality food.

Great customer service, the food is nice but not as flavoursome as you'd expect and never piping hot.

Best curry's in Bolton. 100% quality.

Nice place, homely food. Good taste for the price.

Consistent with the quality and taste of their food.

Amazing food! Tried the Nihari on Saturday and its out of this world....ill be back for more this saturday....the nans are nice and light too.

Good food. The vegetarian option is a little weak, but very filling

Best food anywhere always fresh and very clean the family that run this place are friendly and inviting. I’ve been going here for 20yrs plus and it never changes always top notch food highly recommended

Authentic cuisine here, just like my Mama makes! I don’t know why there are not more places like this, there are so many curry houses out there are full of grease and just taste the same. Not like here! I LOVE this place so much! Amazing food.

Great food, friendly staff, different menu choice each day. Would recommend

Always good food here. Staff are always very nice

Come here four days a week and have been doi g for mo ths, always brilliant quality food and cheery service. Would recommend to everyone

I've never had food like this before but I tried it and was lovely the lady who served me was helpful and I loved my meal money well spent.

Alhumdulillah this is the best restaurant I feel most comfortable eating in. I am looking forward to going there to sit in a relaxed environment where there is a Muslim lady who is always working there whenever I go in. With her always present there, it makes me feel safe and comfortable to eat inside. Alhumdulillah good food, always a lot of good food to choose from. At times I can be lost with what to eat but this is a good thing because All food choices are very delicious Alhumdulillah

Not much effort put into the almost bland curries

Best Indian / African style food in town 🙏

Good home cooked food, very fresh and good value for money

Good authentic indian/Pakistani foods reasonably priced

Not been for a while but mmm iv missed it

Nothing fancy, but a great choice of curries. Always worth a visit when you're in Bolton.

Not just the best fast food, but the best food in town, the Nihari on Saturday's is to die for, worked my way through the menu and every dish is just amazing, and the staff are very friendly and extremely helpful, can't do enough to make sure you leave with a full belly and a smile. Highly recommended!

this is one of the best meals you can get in Bolton. 5 quid for three curries and a rice, 50p for a freshly made light naan- and they say heaven doesn't exist. They also sell kebabs and all sorts of other goodies. Delish! There's an eating area upstairs, bring cash, and they're closed on Mondays !

Went again recently, the food keeps getting better, my friend said this is by far the best rice and curry he's ever had, you guys are hidden gem 100% recommend and I will eat there every time I'm in the area, wouldn't dream going anywhere else

Excellent 'home style' indian food. Far less oily than takeaway curry, but genuine authentic dishes. Menu highlights are biriani (lamb on thurs and chicken on saturday) Nihari (saturday) and lamb on the bone (saturday) lots of veggie options too. Mango lassi is awesome as are the flame grilled sheek kebabs. I have been eating here for 20 something years and we even had them cater at our wedding which should give an indication of just how good and consistent this little gem of a place is.

Practically live here. If you like authentic (spicy) dishes come down on Saturday for the nihari. One of a kind.

Always had good food, not the biggest potions but enough for me.

Really nice food, good value for money

Quality food. Never fails to deliver. Both the town and Deane Rd shops produce top quality food every time.

Consistently tasty homely food.

Nice chapaties/Naans and kebabs... And obviously their Nihari.
