Saffron in East Lindsey - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

A very excellent Indian restaurant with very large portions at a reasonable price

Very welcoming place staff and owners very polite only six people in restaurant very quiet service was quick Quality of food was below average Price was a bit on the high side for the quality of food Tables covered in paper clothes not really appealing just the average kebab shop food with a knife and fork

excellent , garlic chilli chicken is my new favorite dish.

Mismanaged, chaotic service, young waiters congregating in restaurant seemingly at a loss. Food middling at best. Wouldn't return.

Food is fantastic, best curry I've had for a long time. Service is friendly and what you'd expect for a small restaurant, and the atmosphere is too.

Absolutely the worst Indian I’ve ever had. All the meals were watery and tasteless, chips soggy, keema nan was crunchy! The plain nan was fine & the rice was okay too but the drinks were not cold in the slightest. The only reason I’m giving 2 star is because they forgot my chips and sent the driver back with them.

We ordered 50 pound food it was late I ordered 16.90 dish prawn dish got 4 very small prawns do not trust these unless you sit in restaurant horrible rip off people lamb Balti terrible u googled best Indian restaurant this came up terrible absolutely terrible 6 pieces lamb u lamb Balti I will walk I. The restaurant tomorrow and tell them in front customers

As always a lovely meal delivered quickly, nice and hot, friendly delivery driver. Thank you

Holiday treat. In Skegness with friends. Only me likes Indian style food so on my own. Staff really nice and obliging. Was told no alcohol on entry so opted for a coke. Pickle tray and popadoms really tasty. Lamb Achari pliau rice and naan spot on. All piping hot. Well done.

Was really looking forward to a good curry. We love to try out new flavours etc. We ordered a chicken madras and pilau rice, I ordered a mild fruity chicken dish. My partner asked for the madras to be extra hot. This was not the case. My biggest problem was the food was dry n salty too salty and then I saw the sign on the wall. Halal. I mentioned this as the meat in the keema tasted dry too and now we know why. If we'd had known we wouldn't have gone. We Brits don't eat halal we prefer juicy meat. In our home town they normally have a big yellow circle on the door and we avoid it. There was no yellow sign, as we left there was a small green circle on one window. Hardly visible amongst other things. Myself and my partner have been here before and noticed no concerns. My partner knows a good curry. He feels the place is not the same anymore, has it changed hands . Also they don't sell alcohol. If I'd have known it was halal I'd have not gone. This is not what we eat. And it shouldn't be the only choice. This is England. That in our eyes is wrong.

Every so often i like to treat myself, and this is my goto place. Another excellent meal..

Party of eight 8 on a golf trip to Skeggy. Fortunate to find Saffron on Sunday night 30/06/24. Absolutely tremendous food, Welcoming efficient staff, great service, good value. Every member of the group raved about it and that doesn't often happen. Not licensed and can't take your own but the quality of the food off-set's that.

Delicious as always. I'm so glad that onion salad is now available on the menu! Thank you.

for nights when i cant be arsed to cook, then this is the place to go. I've had several take aways , and each has been amazing..

Absolutely spot on thankyou excellent,delivery on time and a nice guy very polite

Excellent curry thankyou by far the best in Skegness and I got exactly what I requested.Thankyou

Amazing place very clean and very friendly and helpful staff nothing us to much trouble, the jalfrazi is one of my favourites highly recommended place for eat in or for takeaway

Absolutely lovely restaurant quality to your door 👍👍👍

Wonderful food, thank you so very very much

Very poor. Looked online, great drink selection etc all on there… arrive to find out they no longer serve alcohol and you can’t bring it in. Ordered a mix grill and the lamb tasted ‘ off ‘ I had to spit it out. I did mention this to the waiter and then got told ‘ it’s very popular ‘ We’re restaurant owners and I’m a chef and I never really complain. Won’t be back.

excellent quality food at reasonable prices best takeaway and restaurant around Skegness.

Very very tasty. Delivered on time, well worth it!

Absolutely faultless. The best Indian I have

Great food and service, reasonably priced, 10/10

We were visiting Skegness and wanted a nice family outing for an Indian and this had really good reviews so booked ahead (very important piece of information) for me, my wife and 2 year old with a high chair - We received a confirmation followed by a “we are looking forward to you arriving” message which was great! We arrived and were greeted by the waiter who guided us to a table and after I said “we ordered a high chair on the booking” he replied with a big smile “we don’t read the requests here’s your table” - which he seemed very proud of We had to ring round some other restaurants and luckily no.9 were accommodating and saved our evening - when we mentioned we had found somewhere else and we were leaving the waiter laughed and said “okay okay ” whilst turning away.. Worst Indian experience I’ve ever had - especially bearing in mind we pre booked with a special request which was “confirmed” - won’t ever be coming back here

We chose this Indian restaurant as it was rated number 1 on trip adivsor, the food was gorgeous and the service we received was very professional and the staff were lovely. The only problem about this restaurant - The restaurant was empty when we arrived, we were sat on our own as a couple , their were plenty of seats and big tables but when a family of around 10 people arrived they sat them about an inch away from us which made our meal very awkward and uncomfortable. Apart from this the restaurant was very good.

Nice food and a very friendly delivery guy

Two different curries ordered but tasted the same, very bland, no spice strength, watery taste. Chips soggy. The best part was the onion bhajis. Wouldn’t recommend this place.

Food was really quick which is a positive but unfortunately the naan bread was not good quality it was thin and burnt and also the chicken tikka I ordered came as a chicken korma

Delicious food delivered quickly and hot. Portions are generous and everything we ordered was full of flavour. Will definitely be ordering again. Highly recommend!

We ordered a poppadoms pickle tray, 3 mains, 2 naan breads and a rice for delivery. Whilst it may not have been the cheapest, it more than made up for in taste. Delivery was fantastic, placing a phone call order, we was advised it would be 50mins. Perfect. 10 mins before delivery a follow up call to confirm its on its way and where to meet the driver (we were on a touring site so really appreciated this) A text message was then sent by the driver to let us know he'd arrived, so we weren't left hanging around, and nor was he. Absolutely fantastic service. *Please note it is cash only on delivery, so good to know before ordering if you're not near any cash points or cash back facilities. The food....Absolutely delicious. We had chicken tikka masala, chicken rogan josh, and lamb biriyani. All 3 dishes were bursting with flavour, and were all piping hot even after sitting for 15mins while we had our poppadoms Even the delivery bags were of a great quality...think bag for life rather than the standard flimsy white carrier bag you get with most take aways. Extremely impressed and will definitely be ordering from here again on our next visit to Winthorpe. Thank you for a delicious meal

2curries ordered for me and wife,decent service but very tasteless for Indian food,mediocre at best.i don’t think I’ll return in the future.ghandi is by far a lot better in my view.had better takeaways in nottingham

Decided to visit while away for a few days for my Birthday, and definatley will be visiting again when in the area! The food was served in reasonable time, and full of flavour. They even varied the strength of the food to make it hotter for me. Thanks again 🙏

Hot and delicious thank you as always. Friendly delivery driver

Tenten.. naan was just a bit over done but curry was tens anyway so yeah rarrhhted!

food was very tasty but spicier than i was expecting for what i ordered.

Food was very nice delicious decent curry house polite staff will be visiting if in the area well done

We have visited the Saffron several times over the last 12 years and usually have a very good meal and a feeling of value, until this occasion! The onion bahji were excellent, very fresh and tasty. The main courses were quite tasteless and the chicken meat dry. We were aware of the 'no alcohol' status before we arrived. We asked for water to accompany our meal and we were served 2 off plastic bottles of water and charged £5. We felt this was not value for money. Time for a change of restaurant for us the next time we are in Skegness.

BE AWARE, no alcohol is allowed in thiis place . Thought it was a restaurant not a mosque!!!!

Delicious food as always. I wish there was an option to buy an onion salad as an extra. Thank you.

excellent service, food was amazing would highly recommend

Lovely food, very filling. Varied menu to suit most tastes. If you like Indian food, it's worth a visit. We'd definitely return.

Found it very expensive food bland and only pop to drink give this place a wide berth

Came to Skegness for a short holiday. Lovely food, very flavoursome. We went as a family of 9, service very good. Food came out relatively quickly. Kids were happy Highly recommend.

It’s the second time that we have visited, we made our way to Saffron from home (unfortunately we live in Skegness), when approaching the restaurant we saw the sign saying that there is no alcohol which is perfect for us as we don’t drink, once inside we were greeted by our front of house/waiting staff who showed us to our table. The menu has a great selection of Indian dishes, for the second time I had the Tandoori sizzler and my wife had a curry (unsure of the name), while waiting for our food we tucked in to our poppadom which was a mistake as it was so nice we couldn’t stop, our food then came out and my Tandoori sizzler we could hear approaching us as the sizzle was super loud and that was awesome, my wife loved her curry and oh my don’t forget the rice, I had special rice and my wife had coconut rice both we amazing. Our waiter came over to ask us if everything okay, we obviously said yes as it was spot on. At the end of the evening I was a little cheeky and asked our waitress if I could have a tub of the lime pickle and she was more than happy to get me a small tub of it. The bill arrived and we were pleasantly surprised at final cost. Personally I would like to thank all of the staff for helping to make our evening a special one. See you again soon. You’re amazing thank you

Delicious food and very fast delivery. Thank you!

Delicious food and very fast delivery. Thank you!

We have visited this place yesterday . Food was absolute disaster . No taste , no salt nothing . If you want to try Indian food I do not recommend this place.

After reading some of the reviews we wasn't expecting much from this Indian. We got their just as it opened, we were pleasantly greeted and shown to our table. The food was fantastic the staff were great. Even our youngest daughter said this was the best 👌 👍 . We will be back for more thank you.

No taste cold vegetables where to big hardly any chicken rice tasteless like curry will not be going back there again

not very warm chicken burnt poor salad

Customers need to know before hand that this place does not sell alcohol and your not even aloud to bring your own. silly business decision as you just lost £200 customer tonight every Indian restaurant I've been to that does not sell alcohol always let you bring your own carnt comment on the food as did not end up eating here because of there alcohol policy

Really lovely meal. Delivered on time and nice and hot. Never disappointed here

We booked this restaurant as we were staying in Skegness for the night & my partner had his heart set on a curry for our evening meal . The Saffron got the best reviews on Google, so we though we would try it. However, all I can say is the food was just "OK". I had tandoori king prawn as it is my fave, however it lacked flavour, it was bland & basic. My partner had king prawn dansac, his fave & again, although it wasn't unpleasant, it wasn't anything special. We have produced these meals at home that tasted better than what was offered & we are far from great cooks & chefs. Also, this restaurant does not sell alcohol. We had got a taxi to the restaurant as we had hoped to relax, have a couple of glasses of wine & a meal during our night away. There is no mention of this on the website when we checked out the menu. I feel that the restaurant needs to say they "do not sell alcohol". My partner asked if it was OK to purchase a bottle of wine elsewhere & drink it on the premises, (a common occurrence in many restaurants who do not have a licensing permit) & he was told this was not allowed either. So we ended up paying overcharged prices (£2.50 for a bottle of 500ml still water & a small can of red bull for £3.90) On the upside, the nan breads were large & staff were very polite, attentive & I cannot fault them. Unfortunately, I felt having spent almost £60 for two people, that it wasn't value for money for a mediocre meal & two soft drinks that we wouldn't have chosen for an evening out, given the choice. I felt obliged to stay as I had booked a reservation & also was unsure of our surroundings, but I would not return to this premises again unless they improve the food quality & gain a permit to allow alcohol consumption or sale. Customers who are on a break or on holiday want to chill out & enjoy their time away, with me that means a nice glass of wine & good food.

The chicken was horrible, didn't taste like chicken

Lovely food and came within 10min of ordering

put asap and was here in 20 mins. delicious 🤤

very nice defo will order again 👍

Used to be a great curry restaurant, on our visit last year we found the food not great. Maybe changed ownership..not sure Shame..

Had a meal here to night. Starter was a king prawn chaat, which the puree was under cooked. I had a biryani which I found was to dry, the sauce was very little. The naan was nice but not what we ordered as it was plain and we asked for a keema naan. We were surprised to hear the people on the next table being told they could not have alcohol in the restaurant, even their own that they had taken. I would. I would think twice about going here again.

This was the best food I’ve had from takeaway ever very happy customer

The starter was lukewarm, other than that it was good.

Currently on holiday at Haven Skegness and ordered a delivery to site. Fast delivery & food was hot and flavoursome. Apologies about the misunderstanding of the extra chips I must have misheard and thought you said £2.50 not £3.50. Would definitely recommend and order again.

We have come from out of town and are staying on Butlins. Delivery was so easy and communication was excellent. Food quality was great and a fantastic menu choices. Would really recommend

Visited this restaurant during my journey up North. Phoned them up and placed an order for a takeaway. A lady answered and took my order. She told me my food would be ready in 20 minutes. 10 minutes later I received a phone call from the same lady to reconfirm my order, I believe this was done to see the if I'm a legitimate customer. Nonetheless, I arrived at their restaurant 25 minutes later after she called to confirm my order and was told to reorder again and pay up front. Their so called restaurant is embarrassingly small and the waitng area is next to a large table, which at the time was occupied by a large party. I was told to leave and come back in 20 minutes. 20 minutes later I arrived again and the food wasn't ready. I had to hang about uncomfortably until my food arrived. The food itself was horrid and totally tasteless. Just warm gooey slops of what looked like leftovers. The error I made was not opting for other local restaurants nearby that are far better. I should've done my research beforehand. Lesson learnt indeed.

Really nice food. They were cooked to perfection, and full of flavour. Thank you :)

Great meal as normal ,but naan bread was gritty.still ate it all though..Until the next time.

Loved the breads great jalfrezie perfect contrast taste and heat. Hubby couldn’t find any prawns 🍤 in his fish. Only reason gave four star. 🌟

Nan bread was gritty, curry was lacking flavour. Onion bhaji was alright tho. Bit gutted because we was starving.

Delicious food everytime! My fave place for Indian takeaway

Had a terrible meal last night. Tandoori chicken was dry and tasteless, curry tasteless, rice over cooked and lumpy and Nan breads were the only good thing. No atmosphere and service was shocking !! Wouldn’t recommend or go back

Didn’t get any mango chutney with chutney tray even though paid for. Tandoori chicken starter both legs were very very dry and overcooked plus hardly any meat on them. Chicken also chewy in the korma

These guys are consistently good. Delivery times always pretty spot-on and good excellent!

Love saffron for the quality and tastiness of their food

Food was stunning place was spotless

Saffron is by far the best Indian Restaurant and takeaway the food and service is exceptional and their prices are reasonable. We only order now from Saffron never had a bad meal. Highly recommended

Delicious and piping hot, delivered in a timely manner by a very polite and happy driver :)

I order from here often but I was disappointed with the food quality today. The poppadoms were stale and the Naan bread was greasy, old, and looked liked it had been dropped on the floor as it has stuff all over it. I tried calling but recieved no answer.

Food was cold and was missing onion bhajis and masala chips

We have found our go too place to order an indian dish. Highly recommend.

As always absolutely perfection. Thank you so much to you all for great service and meals in 2023. Happy new year

The food was good. It was a tad cold, but other than that, it was very flavorful.

We were staying just outside Skegness and found this place online who luckily delivered out to us as we were in the middle of nowhere. We had chicken tikka masala and chicken shashlik, pilau rice and the usual poppodoms etc. Both meals were delicious but could have done with a few more pieces of meat for the price we paid. We live in London and this was more expensive than London. My chicken in the shashlik was a little dry in places and loads of onion, a bit too much. over all happy with the food and very good service from the guy on the phone and the delivery guy. Delivery was quicker than expected.

Perfect as always but my bottle of drink was missing from my order if that could please be refunded or credited to a future order that would be amazing. Thank you

Excellent food reasonable prices and speedy delivery.

Used to order quite regularly however hardly any chicken in the vindaloo

Always lovely hot and tastes amazing

Just finished a meal, and everything was exceptional—from the welcoming service at the door to the incredible food. Highly recommended!

After a previous bad experience with Saffron (some time ago) I decided to order again after reading lots of positive recent reviews from customers. The food this time was delivered very hot & tasty with no nasty surprises. Yes, I would order from them again.

Had a delightful evening with excellent service, delicious food, and a lovely atmosphere. The taste was exquisite—a beautiful compliment to the chef. If you're seeking a traditional Indian night out with great people and delectable food, Saffron Skegness is the place to be.

The food from there is always very good

The service was speedy and excellent. The staff were friendly and accommodating. The food was flavorful, although the space is somewhat limited, it's sufficient to handle peak times.

We opted for a takeout, but it was puzzling to find the same curry listed twice on the menu. Despite that, when we ordered (can't recall the name as my husband did), we received a vegetable one instead of the chicken one. Nevertheless, the food from here remains delicious.

Calling in the order was effortlessly handled by the woman on the phone. Having tried lamb nagas in numerous Indian restaurants, this one easily ranks in my top 3. While the mint sauce was a bit runny and the chips lacked crispiness, it's still a fantastic curry house. If I find myself back in the area, I'll definitely return.

Not a bad little Indian restaurant. Bit no frills but tasty food

The food at this restaurant is yummy and has some unique dishes, like the tasty vegetable chocolate masala. The kulfi and mango lassi are also really good. The service is friendly and quick, and the restaurant has a nice and calm atmosphere. I'd definitely go back when I'm in Skegness!

Very nice curry, had the phal and it was very hot just like it should be,will use again

Excellent food, delivery driver was so polite & friendly

Had an incredible meal here last night. The food was fantastic, and the service was top-notch! It was such a delightful experience; I can't wait to come back for more delicious meals and excellent service.
