Ruby's at the Medway Inn in Tonbridge and Malling

Excellent food, the service by the staff was spot on, very friendly and informative, great choice of beers and lagers.

Perfect. Best Indian cuisine in Medway. Highly recommend.

Excellent curry. Food piping hot and delicious. Definitely recommend

My first time visiting the restaurant food was very nice and atmosphere was great. Will visit again.

Ruby’s is our regular. Always great food, good value and quick delivery. Definitely our favourite local Indian takeaway!

Average curry with missing item. Underwhelmed.

Great flavours, lovely spice , succulent chicken, arrived piping hot, a delicious meal!

The nanny bread was disgusting. It was ment to have minced meat in it and when it arrived the meat was tiny and just tucked in the corner. so I ended up with plain naan. NOT IMPRESSED.

Always good from here. Tasty, arrived hot and hit the spot!

Lovely meal we had our 4 year old with us and the waiter was really good with her!. Lovely atmosphere only a small restaurant we were a walk in that was no problem. We enjoyed our evening meal . Food was good only thing I thought the sorce on the prawn cocktail could have been thicker apart from that very enjoyable. I was directly sat in front of the air con it was a bit cold but I'm sure if asked they would have turned it down. Very friendly staff.

Excellent as always. Thank you ☺️

Food was piping hot when it arrived. Quality of the food was soo good! Will continue to order again and again

I've ordered from here before, but I've now decided to leave a review. The food is great, I would definitely recommend it, every time I've ordered its arrived fairly fast, and hot, the food is delicious 10/10

not as good as normal. all abit oily and mushy. bhuna and jalfazi were poor. Vindaloo the meat was more like soft beef than lamb. also asked for mushroom rice and got pilau.

Popped along for a curry with Management and her friend. Nice evening, great service and very friendly, and lovely place. However, I have to be honest, the food was very bland. Bell pepper stuffed with lamb and herbs starter, very tastless, you wouldn't know there was lamb in it, and I have no idea what the "chefs special herbs" contain, but I can only guess at three different types of flour. Chicken madras and mushroom rice for main, rice was OK, but the madras was the same consistency as chinese takeaway curry sauce, minus any flavour, but at least it had a little heat - just a little, nowhere as much as a madras should have. Sag Aloo was also devoid of flavour, and very watery, like the spuds had been over cooked and were about to become Sundays mash. Real shame as I had really been looking forward to it.

Enjoyed our meals tonight. Chicken Tikka masala was not very spicy but enjoyably sweet and deliciously cooked chicken which tasted lovely. Lamb biryani was amazing, meat was tender and juicy. Lovely rice and naan breads. Will definitely re order.

As usual, every thing was delicious. This is our favourite Indian restaurant and we can’t recommend it enough.

everything was great and quality would have been 5 stars except that one of our orders was incorrect - we ordered a veg item and it contains meat which we cannot eat.

I was given the wrong order although some items appeared the same. I started eating before I noticed, which was an innocent mistake. I was then made to feel as though I'd done something wrong by the delivery driver (who gave me the wrong order to begin with); he was very condescending. Needless to say l won't be ordering from here again.

Ordered the chicken naga really hot as it should be, I do prefer my sauce a little thicker but on the whole couldn’t fault the quality taste and price.

Sadly, on Saturday it did not meet our usual expectations. The food was bland, a very loose sauce - it was watery. Lacked substance and flavour. & the price had gone up, so disappointing all round. We will be going elsewhere for curry night!

Booked table at Medway Inn, easy enough, arrived at establishment, greeted by a young lady, informed her of booking, shown to table, drinks and food ordered at bar, 3 drinks £15(J2O, raspberry voddie n lemonade & Shipyard ale). Asked if were members(sadly no, 10% discount for members) Food ordered, 2x Cow n chicken bun & Tuna melt jacket spud, side of onion rings, £38.65, tuna melt spud was a hit with daughter, Cow n Chicken bun, never tried before, didn’t know what to expect, how ever was very nice, well cooked, ample portions of chips to accompany. Dessert ordered, sticky toffee pudding and custard & hot chocolate fudge cake, both delicious. One criticism is that it states home made food, however cow (beef burger) tasted manufactured or shop bought, chips appeared manufactured or shop bought. On a personal note of my good lady & myself, cow n chicken bun needed a cheeky wee cheese slice between burgers. All in all, great wee pub, delicious food, helpful and courteous staff, not the cheapest, but no where near expensive. Will visit again and recommend friend to use. P.S. how does one become a member..?

Great value and speedy delivery.

This was the second time ordering from here and unfortunately it wasn't as good as the first. My curry was overly watery, to the point I had to mop up the excess with some kitchen roll. My partner had coconut rice and ended up throwing that away as it had a strange taste. The naan bread was a bit dry too. Probably won't order from there again 😞

We have ordered from here multiple times however this order was not the usual standard. Curry was extremely watery and full of oil on the top.

Prawn Kashmir is meant to contain bananas but there were not any in my meal. The onion bhajis were dripping with bright yellow grease and it had dripped out onto all the other food containers in the bag. Very unpleasant. Also I got a message at 7.05pm to say food was on its way but it arrived at 7.40pm! It was even marked as delivered 20 minutes before it arrived.

Unfortunately a lump of something that certainly wasn’t chicken in the Butter Chicken and sauce very deep dark red in patches. Rest was ok though.

The best curry ever and always. Lamb madras was superb as always with such tender lamb. Thanks again Ruby’s 🥰

Over 45mins late and when I rung restaurant they said it was out for delivery. When I rung back they said they were waiting got a driver, so they lied

an hour for delivery on a Saturday is just about ok, but when reality turns into a hour and 25 minutes then it becomes disappointing...

Went in to collect a takeaway, my order wasn't ready so I was told to go and wait in the pub, I refused as was there to collect my dinner and not stand in a pub on my own as a young female. Perhaps need to rethink set out if offering takeaway as not everyone is going to want to wait in a busy pub. Food was very disappointing, wasn't hot, lamb passanda tasted funny and the lamb seemed to be very chewy (perhaps cheap meat used) also had lamb tikka starter and the meat again was very tough.

we are so so lucky to have this superb restaurant/takeaway locally 😄😄😄

Food was late and cold had to put it microwave

Another great meal from Ruby’s. Every item has so much taste, it makes Ruby’s stand out.

As others have experienced, the customer service here isn't very good at all. We had a sit down meal for a family members birthday. The food was mediocre, but the very surly and sour staff really do spoil the dining out experience. If you are used to eating out where the staff try to enhance your experience, to get you to come back, and for you to continue spending money, you will be massively disappointed. There's are plenty of other restaurants you can go to, where the staff actually make you feel like they want you there. Would not recommend.

Was Absolutely Gutted With The Food We Was Recommended Too Try This Place… When The Food Came It Wasn’t Hot, There Was Very Little Flavour Too The Curries.. Chicken Was Like Rubber, Onion Barjis Where Well Over Cooked. wouldn’t Be Ordering From Here Again..

top quality as always. the best Indian in medway.

OK. But just a curry. Service a bit rubbish

2nd and last time I had a madras with absolutely no heat in it at all real shame

I asked for it to be delivered at 2100 when we are home so now the food will be cold

Excellent quality, excellent service

Very good but could have been hotter. Arrived on time.

always a good curry from Ruby's, really enjoyed it

I have always used Ruby's as my go to Indian take away and I have NEVER had a bad meal....but tonight (and the previous meal we ordered) have been OFF THE CHARTS good! The lamb in the vindaloo literally melted in the mouth, the containers were packed with food, and delivery was quick - please carry on doing what you are doing and you have a customer for life here!!!

3rd time from ordering but tonight just bland..

Delivery driver left my food while going into a shop. Food arrived cold, curry was just tomatoes & onions little sauce. Lemon rice had huge chunks of zest & inedible.

Unfortunately the food was cold by the time it arrived.

What alovely roast we had lovely starters mains n deserts there was ten of us food was gawjus staff friendly lovely decor n was nice n cosy

As usual, very tasty and hot, delivered earlier than scheduled which is fine, friendly driver as well.

Had a wonderful Sunday lunch at Ruby's today. Excellent service, lovely atmosphere, nicely prepared and presented food, good portions and great value, especially with the earlybird discount. Will definitely return soon.

not as good as normal, but still good

My order of Chicken Dhansak had no rice accompliment with it and the order was 20 minutes late This is only the 2nd time I have ordered from Ruby's and must say I am quite disappointed with the outcome ofboth meals.

Lovely lamb curry. Good quality meat.

Bland, flavourless curries which weren’t hot. App said it had been delivered when had not. Rung the restaurant and it hadn’t even left the building yet! Poor choice

Best Indian takeaway in the area, nothing compares

Love this restaurant normally. On this occasion....the meal has violently upset my stomach and I can't stop ejecting all it ate and I can't even keep after down Never ever known such a violent reaction in many many years to a takeaway

Honestly the food was fantastic!! Come on time, it was lovely and warm, really recommend it. I will be ordering there again ☺️

Food was early tasted amazing and was hot on arrival best indian ive had in ages

Absolutely delicious food. A real family favourite. 👍🏼😁

Love it! Beautiful food and lovely people. Very relaxing. Clean place and great beers

Great Sunday lunch and week days curry house is amazing

Very nice food like always … only place I go

Best Indian meal we had for ages arrived early and piping hot it was deliciousWell Done Ruby's will definitly be ordering from there again.

Very tasty piping hot, great value for money. Will definitely be ordering again.

Really tasty food, great portions.

We had a Sunday roast for my four year old son's birthday here and it was amazing , the staff are so friendly and the food was spot on. We had a nice time here so thank you again and we will definitely be returning.

The food is always great! But ordered at 7 and it wasn’t delivered until after 8.30 so took a while. I understand it’s a Saturday night, but still think shouldn’t have to wait over an hour and a half

We order from here on a regular basis it is the best Indian takeaway we’ve ever had! 🌟

Absolutely delicious food. Arrived quickly and in very good sized portions. Well spiced, tasty and well balanced (not too much oil)

Fantastic value for. Money very friendly

Arrived quickly after ordering, delicious byriani, the Thali was a delight, lots of different flavours.

Nice food, however for the 2nd week in a row the order was wrong. Ordered 1 Keema naan and received 2 plain naans.

I used this takeaway a few months ago as friends recommended it and was pleasantly surprised it is in fact much better than where I have ordered my curry’s from for the last 12 years! Money has been a bit tight over the past couple of months but tonight my husband and I ordered l😊 The food was hot when it arrived, A really polite and friendly man delivered the food, it tasted lovely, we look forward to the next time we can afford to order again!

Absolutely mouth watering Topside of Beef for Sunday Lunch

Chicken was lovely, tasted like the dish it was supposed to be , authentic tasty food and will order again

Excellent flavours, Thali was great. Lovely, tasty biryani. Simply gorgeous food

1 hour late, missing mint sauce and tepid. Not the usual service we receive, so hopefully it’s a one off.

Absolutely delicious 😋 Will be ordering from here again. 😁

Food was absolutely amazing. Thank you. Definitely use this restaurant again. 5*****

Always delicious, authentic and never greasy. Each dish tastes freshly made and not from a generic sauce. Recommend every time!

Cannot fault the food, it is absolutely delicious. However, the service itself is quite upsetting. We have done both food in the restaurant and takeaway and the service we received were bad. The waiters would openly be rude to us and talk badly about us behind our back, as if they do not want anyone to be there. Bear in mind, we were the only diners in the restaurant at the time during the evening. When ordering delivery, we had 3 hours delay and every time we spoke to them on the phone, they were rude. The food is the reason that I'm giving it 3 stars, but the staff and management would do with a refresher in customer care skills.

Lovely roast dinner today, me,my partner, 3 children and the dog sat outside and had our roast, 2 pints of coke and 3 slush puppies all for less than 45 quid bargain and decent grub even includes cauliflower cheese 👍

Love eating in. However they have a delivery driver for their take away with a red Toyota iygo who is the rudest woman. She was 15 minutes late and was lost, refused to follow directions and threatened to drive off. We had to walk 10 minutes to meet her. She shouted at us and at a neighbour. Only bad experience with them but may be best not to order take out from here.

Flavours were not great, tasted re-heated and not fresh with a sour after taste.

Not as fab as it normally is unfortunately Potato’s hard, Nan burnt and rice watery. Shame as usually really good. New chef maybe?

Good food, nice tastes, nice meats and all warm when delivered. Will be ordering again

Food arrived earlier than stated which was a bonus and when it arrived it was piping hot and tasted amazing absolutely can not fault it, probably the best curry I’ve had a in years. I asked for the Tikka masala to be a bit spicy and they obliged and it tasted amazing!

Yesterday my husband and I visited Ruby's at the Medway Inn because it was my birthday, and we like to go out for a birthday treat meal. This one was particularly special because my husband broke his strict diet of over 6 months to accompany me. I wish we hadn't. We have been regulars at Ruby's and have enjoyed many lovely meals there even going so far as to recommend the place to our friends and family. We have both eaten in and had takeaways from here. I ordered my favourite chicken jalfrezi and my husband chose his favourite chicken naga. We also had starters. For my starter I ordered a prawn dish which came with both salad and fried onions. I thought it odd but left the onions as they didn't really fit with the rest of the dish. When my jalfrezi arrived, I attempted to scoop out my sauce, which I love but found that all I got was a spoonful of fried onions in a little bit of sauce. It was fried onion overload. I mentioned it to my husband as he had ordered a different dish, and his was the same. There was also not the flavour there used to be. Has the chef changed? Why was this meal so very different to all the rest we have had there? It's almost as though they are filling up their dishes with fried onion to hide the fact that you are getting less chicken. Needless to say, it only takes one bad meal... we will not be returning, and we will no longer recommend Ruby's to our friends and family. Such a shame it had to be like this on such a special occasion.

First visit and very impressed. Good atmosphere, friendly staff. Food was excellent and very reasonable. Our waiter went above and beyond offering us a lift home after our meal as we had problems booking a cab.

The last few occasions we have ordered this takeaway, it’s not been up to scratch. It’s very dull with no flavour. So disappointing. However it was out for delivery within 15 mins of ordering which meant it was 30 early

Wasn't the nicest, not much meat mostly onions and food was very peppery

the food was hot and lovely, only criticism I had was it was not seasoned with salt

Always have a perfect order from here! Fresh, hot, amazing flavoured food every time with super quick delivery too!

Wasn’t the usual standard, maybe if they took a little longer to prepare next time

Food arrived on time and was really hot. We all enjoyed it thank you

Lovely meal again good portion sizes ,polite delivery person

We have eaten in the restaurant and the food has always been 10/10. We ordered for takeaway and was unsure if it would arrive hot due to the distance, but it was still so warm, with the same taste. Could not fault a thing!! Will definitely be ordering from here for takeaway again.

The following review only relates to the Ruby's aspect of the Medway Inn and not the pub attached to it. Four of us visited the ruby Inn yesterday and upon our arrival we were greeted by a surly 'have you booked'. We had not booked and so was directed ti go into the pub whilst a table was prepared. There were two other tables of guests at this time. The food was to a reasonable standard. However after the meal the bill was brought to us and hadn't had the 30% off accounted for which is fine. However, upon raising it we were told that to get the 30% off you had to say it at the start as the portion sizes are then changed to reflect the price change. This was a new one to me. The 30% was then deducted however the prices on the receipt did not then match the prices on the menu. An all round disappointing experience .

Lovely onion bhajis, the shatkora was beautifully spiced, slightly hot, fantastic flavour. Highly recommend it.
