Saffron in Kirklees

i went in expecting good thing but was horrified by my meal as it took ages to come and the stafff were rude to me and put pubes in my raw chicken the cheeky peeps ive been on the toilet for 2 weeks now with the runs from this im absolutely appauled never go hear

Always a fantastic experience here. Lovely Birthday yesterday, the table was decorated, got a (Very strong ;) ) Birthday fab cocktail, and a round on Baileys on the house. Food amazing as usual and we were very spoiled xxxx

Ordered a takeaway from here via just eat. On the plus side, it arrived early. On the negative.... My curry had a tasty sauce but the "lamb" contained in it was inedible. My complaint via just eat was fielded back saying the restaurant disagreed.Nothing resolved from either parties.... If you enjoy tender succulent meat..well, dont come here.

Went here for the early bird one Sunday. Although advised on Facebook, nowhere on the menu does it explain the deal. Once the deal was explained, we were told anything extra would be £1. Great we said, let’s just order what we wanted and work out that bill after. Starters came out quickly and were actually nice. That’s where it ended. Over an hour we waited for mains. Got one of our meals wrong and tried to blame us for ordering wrong. Mains were very red. More sauce than meat. When we asked for that bill it was more than double. When we questioned it, we were told we said we didn’t want the early bird and just wanted to order what we wanted. Bad communication and understanding. Not at all were we honoured any discount not even for waiting so long. Card machine wasn’t working. Just a bad experience. Used to order from Saffron many a time. But we’ll not return or order take away again.

Ordered a quick meal, had many a meal here eat in and take out. Tonight I ordered chicken shashlik, was so very salty and RED; never had a red shashlik ANYWHERE. and card machine not working, gone down hill Saffron

Ordered a takeaway which we have ordered from here before, but this was a big let down, the king prawns were no bigger than a cockle, which you only got four and paid extra for, the mixed starter was a small portion, the lamb curry was very tough and the sil sila which is ment to have extensive use of corriander hadn't even got a sprinkling in it, very disappointed will have to review my next curry ordering decision...

Had a good evening for the Patelvis night , great singer and dancer, food was great as always but the guy behind the bar hadn’t got a clue what he was doing he checked our bill 3 times as he couldn’t remember what we had eaten or had to drink , the last time we ate here we were charged £20 more than we should have been. I have used this restaurant for years and paid by card abut now it suddenly cash only !!

Visited here for my birthday meal with family food as always as usually have takeaway was fantastic. Staff are fab friendly and cannot find any faults highly recommend . Having a curry from here tonight . Cannot wait

We visit here on a regular basis and have to say the food is lovely & fresh. Never had a bad meal and the staff are so friendly and efficient. The nimki boti is a definite must! Give it a try you won't be disappointed. The meal deal is also fantastic value.

Had a takeaway and my husband he didn't think it was very good. Didn't taste as expected. Mine was ok.

The Safron is a great place to have a curry to eat in or take out,the food is very good as is the service,only downside is the lack of parking facilities.

We eat here every week, always have a great meal and a warm welcome. Great value too! Highly recommend!

Not a pleasant evening. Food was ok-ish although not as good as under the previous owners. The terrible part is that, despite having the stickers on the door showing which credit cards are accepted, they don't actually take them. Having entered the restaurant under the assumption that they still took credit cards (as per the door stickers) when we came to pay we were firstly told that the card machine was not working. When we spoke to the manager he suggested we walk to the nearest cash point, get some cash out and come back. We don't usually carry £100 in cash, especially when the restaurant advertises on its door that it takes credit cards. The manager then said that they have stopped taking credit and worked on a cash basis. Hmmm. We won't be going back. There are other establishments in the Colne Valley that take cards and have better menus (the fixed price menu has also gone from Saffron).

We have been fairly regular visitors to Saffron over the past 5 years. One of the plus points was the set menu which was £10.95 and was a bargain. We haven't been in since before Christmas and knew it was under new management. Upon being sat down we were given the menus to find the set meal had gone and there was an increase generally in the price of the food. Whilst disappointed it would be unfair to rate it purely on this aspect and we ordered our food. We were the only people in at 18.30 and even on a Saturday night you would have expected more people in especially with young children. Also the restaurant itself was really cold. We had to sit next to a radiator to keep warm which is not the best environment to be in when eating. The food took some time to be prepared which was a surprise as we were the only ones in and hearing the chefs/staff arguing in the back didn't exactly add to the atmosphere. In fairness the food was good albeit not outstanding. The main issue came upon payment. We asked for the bill and was asked by the waitress "are you paying by card as our card reader isn't working". It would have been nice to have been told this prior to sitting down and ordering. Totally understand this type of thing can happen but it was very unprofessional. Upon complaining to management we were told there was a cash machine down the road and was then informed that "all the regulars know we are cash only now" and he indicated they haven't had a card reader since before Christmas. Clearly mixed messages and again just another nail in the coffin for us I cannot remember a time I last went to a restaurant in the UK that did not take card payments. What is even more annoying is that they still had a visa/MasterCard sticker in the window. The bill in total came to over £80 for 4 which whilst not very expensive also wasn't a bargain. The set up just now feels unprofessional and not particularly customer focussed. Unless we hear things improve massively we won't be back which is a shame

Was enticed by a Charity Evening, and went in a group of 10. Circumstances meant I arrived an hour late, but was made to feel welcomed and soon caught up in the eating stakes. The prawn bhuna was excellent with decent sized portions. The place was buzzing and they made a very generous donation to Action for Children charity.

The food is excellent whether you eat in or takeaway, the staff are all very friendly. The value is great too with some good deals.

Last week on Christmas Eve 4 of us had a superb meal in the restaurant tonight New Year's Eve we ordered a takeaway meal for 10 to our house, delivered within the hour all food was excellent even got a free bottle of wine, must be one of the best curry houses in Huddersfield

Under new managementSet meal for £10 came out fullGood restaurant great value for money. Enjoyed the atmosphere and the staff were very friendly. Will definitely be back.

Had a lovely meal on Saturday. Naan bread was replaced when we commented on it not being very garlicky, they made us a diffrerent one which was great. We will be back soon

Quite possibly the worst takeaway we've ever had. We've eaten in the Restaurant and it was lovely, however the takeaway we've just eaten was abysmal. Everything was stone cold. Soggy oily popadoms, wet, bland pakora, the wrong mains sent and a garlic naan which was garlicless and inedible. The whole thing just ended up in the bin. Waste of money.

Amazing food and great staff. We visit at least once a month. I always have the makhani but my other half loves the variety of the menu and tries a different dish each time. One of his favourites is the chilli garlic chicken.Reasonable prices

We stopped here on the off chance as it was late and our visit to Slaithwaite had been fruitless. We are so glad we found it - best food ever! The onion bhaji was amazing - crispy outside but so soft and moist inside. Food was totally oil free and was full of flavour. Great prices too - their dinner deal was only £10, which included poppadoms, a starter, main and sundry. I wish they were based in Newcastle!!

Me and my husband have previously had a takeaway from saffron and was devine. And have recently had another takeaway from here which we had delivered. We ordered the set menu . On getting the delivery I noticed my starter was not there .. I had to ring back for it to be delivered to me which it did arrive quickly hence for leaving my main course to start cooling .. I wil be ordering from saffron again as the food is of a good quality .. just hoping I get all of my food delivered in 1 go

Saturday 3rd September we decided after hearing good reviews to try Saffron and rang in an order for the set menu for two and chicken nuggets and chips for our son,We got our money ready and waited for the delivery, which was prompt however the driver asked For £6 more than we expected, looking at the receipt they had crossed out the set meal and tried to charge individually for each item.,we only paid the driver for the set meal, then rang the restaurant to complain,the person on the phone was rather rude in his tone and basically said we hadn't asked for the meal deal, which we did, why would we pay the extra,,,, to finish I must admit the food we had was excellent although when we had sat down for the meal the poppadoms and a portion of chips were missing,,,

Great 5 course for £9:95, who can grumble at that!Brilliant service and everything we ordered was delicious. Drinks reasonably priced and coffees included to finish our meal.

After been closed for months we decided to try the Saffron again, new management new chef , just as good , great food , great service , in a nice little restaurant. great place to eat or take away.

Excellent service and the food is great. Prices are reasonable and the portions are enormous. Recommend the fire eater curry.

The food, choice, service and price all excellent. Amazing value for money, very pleasant and helpful staff. Pleasant modern décor inside, very clean and well presented. The meal deal was available on a Saturday evening and is incredible value for money. We have often paid double this price and had a much worse meal. We will be back.

Superb food with a great service in a nice little restaurant , we had the meal deal and a few drinks really good price , one of the best curry houses in Huddersfield

Great food! All your standard curries plus lots of great specials that I haven't seen anywhere else, good beer and fantastic value for money. The chilli dip in the pickle tray is worth the visit alone. Bilal and the team are great, and will tailor your curry to suit your needs. Saffron will get even better as more people find out how good it is!

Really enjoyed the food. Had the £10.95 deal plus ordered a couple of extra side orders as we couldn't decide what to have. Ended up taking some home for the next day! My only negative point was how cold it was in the restaurant. No heating on... we'd have stayed longer if we'd been warm. My fella loves the lager there. But I just wanted to get home and get warm.

We called in a couple of weeks ago and for £10.95 you can order a starter, main and any sundry. I ordered a Prawn Puri to start, very tasty. For main a Keema Naan and a Chicken Dhansak. Both were excellent and plenty of it. The service is good, quick and friendly. The restaurant is nicely decorated too. A very good meal.

We love to eat here as a family, the food is great and the owners are friendly. The poppadoms are the thinnest freshest I have ever eaten.

my husband & I regularly have a takeaway (2 dine for £15.95) from saffron on a Saturday evening & are never disappointed, so we decided to "dine in" at the restaurant on Christmas Eve, & as expected we weren't disappointedThere is a nice cosy bar area where you can enjoy a pre meal drink. The restaurant its self is bright cheerful & clean, the staff welcoming & attentive.As regular diners of Saffron we are familiar with the extensive menu & being Christmas Eve chose our favourites.Despite it being busy we were served each course in a timely manner,each course was beautifully presented & cooked to perfection, the friendly waiter replenishing our drinks as required. The whole meal was very relaxed & the atmosphere lovely When the bill came we were given complimentary mints accompanied by a Baileys liquor, a nice touch we thoughtSaffron certainly got Christmas off to a good start for us! We both agreed we are very fortunate to have such an excellent restaurant in our village

This place is the top of my list when I want some quality food at a more than quality price.I have been coming here for many years now and feel it is time for me to tell the world. The interior is clean and spacious with a licenced bar.I have had pretty much everything on the menu but my favorite is a chicken-lamb Korai onion rice and a garlic and coriander naan, just simply the best I have had and I have travelled this country extensively.The staff are very attentive and if there is anything you want they will do their best to accommodate you.All in all this restaurant is very much worth a try.

Absolutely delicious food served by attentive friendly staff in a slightly Spartan yet modern setting. Definitely the best Asian food I have had in the Huddersfield area!

Fantastic service along with fantastic food. Billy was attentive and generous. A fantastic night. Everyone, old customers and new (like us) could not have been treated any better by the team there

As always fantastic food, fantastic staff who cant do enough for you .making the experience so good you want to go back.ive gone here for years and I cant say enough good things about it.excellant value for money.

Biggest menu I have ever seen and the £10.95 deal (which as far as I can tell is permeated) is brilliant(Excellently located and staying at Titanic nearby)

Overall our experience was very good, the only negative was that a couple of pieces of chicken were a little tough. However, the portions were large and very tasty, and we had plenty to eat. Prices were very good, especially on the meal deals. The restaurant was not particularly busy when we dined and service was excellent.The restaurant doesn't have a private car park, so be prepared to park on the road.

This restaurant is fast becoming one of the best in Huddersfield, we have tried all the restaurant's in the town centre and in surrounding areas which are ok but this restaurant is excellent the food is superb and the service is second to none, give it a try you wont be disappointed

As a family we don't eat out because my son has a life threatening peanut allergy and most restaurants will not cater for us . But not the saffron !!!!!!!! Nothing was too much trouble , we preordered and they took the time to produced my sons meal before they began cooking for the rest of the evening, ensuring no contamination from other dishes. I can not tell you how lovely it was to eat out as a family! Thank you so much !

Well proud i went to this place on a Saturday night, well worth trying service was excellent and food was just spot on well done lads keep it up. That's all i've got to say because everybody needs to try this place......

Been here quite a few times and have always had an excellent meal. Would definitely recommend to friends and family. Friendly staff.

We as a family fancied a change from our usual takeaway so it was decided we would try saffron in linthwaite. I have not been so disappointed for a while!! At first, picking the food up, it smelt great and I couldn't wait to dig in. I wasn't feeling too hungry so only got chicken tikka on naan whilst my parents had an actual curry each. Upon opening my meal I wasn't thrilled, the naan was burnt but I carried on and proceeded to eat it, the chicken was dry and tasteless and the naan tasted burnt. I had a chicken pakora as well and the batter was disgusting more like a paste inside as if not cooked properly, again the chicken was dry. I ended up leaving a half of my food and had to make something else more than anything just to get rid of the burnt taste!! They curry looked very watery but my parents seemed to enjoy them, I didn't dare try them. I will not be returning to this establishment again.

We have been going to the saffron since it opened years ago. 5 courses for £10:95 is great value, never had anything bad from here. Billy the owner is a lovely guy and can't do enough for you. This place runs purely on word of mouth and returning customers, they do nothing on social media to advertise which speaks volumes to me!

That was so good thanks for the excellent food and very reliable service .can't wait for the next time

Just love this place food and service wonderful - staff are family friendly and attentive. I like the tandoori chicken with Bhuna sauce over its delicious.

We regularly visit Saffron (or order takeaway) and are never disappointed. It is good value for money and the quality has always been excellent. The staff are very friendly and I would certainly recommend this establishment for Indian food in the Colne Valley area.

We are regular customers at Saffron and if you are looking for a delicious curry in the Colne Valley area this is definitely the place to go. As we have two small children we regularly order the take-out special directly to our home which for £15.95 is fantastic value and absolutely delicious. You get poppadoms and dips, 2 starters, 2 main courses, 2 sundries and 1 side dish. Delivered in a reasonable amount of time, cooked beautifully and very filling. The staff at this establishment are so lovely too especially with young children. On a few occasions when we have eaten in they have provided my daughter with a main meal free of charge which I think is a lovely gesture.

We arrived as a party of 10 around 7.30pm and then we suddenly remembered we had only booked for 8, This was soon sorted by the efficient staff despite the restaurant being full at the time. The starters came out straight away and no one had any complaints, mains took a little longer as the place was full but we weren't bothered as we were enjoying their range of wines.Again all the food arrived as ordered and everyone seemed to enjoy their food, the bill was surprisingly low and great value given the drinks we had ordered.We will return

Called in on a recomendation and had a great meal lots of choice and good value for money, meal for two plus drinks £39 and we were full , will go again

The take-away meal for two offer at Saffron is hard to beat at £15.95:- Poppadoms and dips- 2 starters- 2 main courses- 2 sundries (rice, nan etc.)- 1 side dish.All the food is delicious, well packaged and delivered free over a wide radius (we live in Marsden). This is our regular curry takeaway. My particular favourite main dish is Bual Biran - a super-tasty fish curry, which would cost £7.95 if ordered individually.If I had to find one flaw it is that all the meat is cooked in a tandoor and added to the curry sauce. This is a popular way to cook meat in Indian restaurants, but I prefer the meat to be cooked 'wet'.Saffron don't have a website, so here is a scan of their menu: https://db.tt/2m1FCVXNI have occasionally eaten in and the service and atmosphere are good.

We visited Saffron with my brother in law who said it was a great place. We were not disappointed. Everything we ordered was hot, super flavorful and delicious. I would definitely recommend Saffron.

My last visit to Saffron was to pick up a take away, our Friday night treat, the staff always greet us like long lost friends, so pleasant and chatty.The food was gorgeous as ever, I love my King Prawn on Puree starter, delicious, do not miss out on the Onion Bhaji's, Bombay Potato and their Chicken Tikka Masala is the best I have ever had, and trust me, I have had a few :)If you eat in the restaurant, the décor is lovely and the staff are attentive but not intrusive, and the meal deal is a great incentive too.Go for it, you won't be disappointed.

We went for a quite meal out on a Thursday evening; the restaurant was quiet with just one party there. We were seated straight away by a friendly waiter, and our drink orders taken. I had a pint of cobra and my partner and child had a soft drinks.We ordered poppadum’s and pickles which arrived promptly, 3 different pickles nothing special, poppadum’s were ok.We order a range of mains I had a hot garlic spicy dish, even though I asked for it to be toned down was still quite hot. My partner orders a similar dish and her boy order a korma. The mains came in good time. My partners chicken was tough, the korma wasnt great and my dish was ok although the presentation was impressive. The garlic nan was very fresh and soft, the rice was ok.The bill came to 45 pounds with a 5 pound tip, I believe this to be more expensive then it was worth by about 10 pounds.Unfortunately, the next day both me and my partner now have upset stomachs’. We are both bloated and feeling nauseas. For this reason alone we won’t be returning.

My parents are regulars of saffrons and I myself often pay a visit. I took my partner a couple of month back who also loved it. The food is always fantastic, the staff are attentice and accomodating. The surroundings are fantastic and the bar has a selection of alcohilic and non-alcoholic drinks. The menu is pretfy extensive and ive tried most dishes at least once and never had a bad meal yet. Excellent value for money. When the staff become parr od your extended family they are clearly doing something right! Fabulous!

In search of a decent restaurant I decided to give Saffron a try on Saturday night, on the recommendation of a work colleague.The restaurant looked nice but we had to wait to get our table (for no apparent reason – they were not full to the rafters or anywhere near that!). We got seated by a friendly enough chap – nice big smile! But again had to wait for get our order put in. We decided to skip the starters as it was taking so long and order the mains (even though they had a meal deal, I think!). The mains came out in good time – same chap big smile, chicken tikka masala and lamb biryani and tasted ok. However enthralling and charming that BIG SMILE was – I don’t think it can make me come back! My search continues………..

I visit Saffron on a regular basis, we always get a warm welcome, the food is fantastic and great value for money!

Always order from this place. Whenever visitors come they ask if we can get takeaway from Indian Express. Best in the area. Delicious

I had my birthday meal at Saffron and the customer service was amazing. The quality of the food was outstanding for the price,and served promptly.

Great food staff are friendly I would recom3nd it to everyone I pived the place staff are willing to chat and have a laugh it is a really good resturant

Nice interior, and very friendly greeting without being over the top that you get at some other Indian restuarants.Tables nicely set out.The "5" courses for £10.95 is a bit of a misleading title.Its 1 Poppadom and pickle tray,2 Starter,3 Main4 Side5 Coffee or Tea.Hardly 5 courses.Starter I had was lamb chops - very thin, over cooked and tough.My other half had lamb tikka - also tough.Mains were okay, but lots of additional onions and sauce to bulk out the lack of meat.Peshwari nan was like no other - bright pink coconut in the middle and not that savoury compared to others I have had!Beer prices compare to other houses at £3.30/pint for Cobra draught.Glad we have tried, but will not be going back again.

We are always greeted at Saffron with a warm welcome. The restaurant is clean and nicely decorated, the tables are dressed with linen table cloths and the service is always brilliant. There is a permanent offer of 5 courses for £10.95 - starters are a goods size and always brought quickly. The menu is HUGE, and the mains are amazing. I usually have a prawn dish and I have always been impressed. The only think I would say is that the tikka masala is quite creamy and korma-like, so if you like a quite hot curry, do not order that. There are lots of paneer dishes which is rare in a curry house - our vegetarian friend was very impressed. I think the service and food quality is second to none, the owners/managers/ waiters are really friendly, and I wouldn't go anywhere else locally for a curry.

We LOVE saffron and its my favourite place to eat curry, having tried quite a few places over the years!The staff are second to none in terms of the quality of service and personal touch. we have celebrated birthdays, graduations and anniversaries there and have always been greeted as friends, and often a complimentary drink.The food is delicious and excellent value for money. The take away deal especially is out of this world (meal of two deal). Our favourites include Chicken Tikka Masala and the Chicken Napali and of course the poppadoms and chutneys!If you're in the area, or even if you're not....visit Saffron!

Great place, great value and friendly staff.. What more can you ask for from a good clean restaurant and at a price you can't match locally. Would recommend to anyone and usually do..

I went to this place a few days ago and was so disappointed looks really nice but starters come cold main meal tasted like it was a microwave curry and the service was terrible would not go here again might of just been the day we went but first impressions are everything and i felt like it was a waist.

We've never eaten in at Saffron but can't fault the Takeaway Service and food! The curries are AWESOME (and we have tried all the other local restaurants/takeaways). Fresh food, great prices (try the meal for two deal!) and fantastic friendly delivery. I can't even recommend our favourite meals...they've all been good. Great value and far better than anywhere else in the Colne Valley (or anywhere else we've been actually!).

Been going here for nearly 2 years as a group of work colleagues, and with friends. Saffron has always been consistent, excellent!Service is great, feels more like visiting friends than a restaurant. Food is always cooked fresh and tastes superb, each dish is individual, and everyone we've tried has been fantastic, (tho I would recommend the chicken chat, and the chicken afgani).This restaurant deserves more recognition as the food is far better than most of the well known restaurants in Huddersfield. Would highly recommend this place, try it, you wont be disappointed.

Since discovering this restaurant in our local area we have visited several times. We have never been disappointed with the food or service. The £10.95 meal deal is amazing value. The food is fresh, well prepared and cooked to perfection. There are a number of different dishes as well as the standard curries one would expect in an Indian restaurant. I would highly recommend the Chicken Zafrani or the Heera Special. To be honest, though, I am yet to try a dish I wouldn't recommend from here! The service is great: friendly and efficient. Anyone wanting good Indian food need look no further than Saffron.

There are many fine Indian restaurants in Huddersfield but none that will do a five course meal for just £10.95 - nor of such outstanding quality! We live just up the road and avoided what we thought was a cheap and somewhat unattractive place. Then one night we took a chance and have never looked back. This is now our favourite Asian eatery.The staff are excellent, the food unbelievable, especially the lamb shank which is unique to this place in my experience. Every dish we have had has been distinctive, not the derivative curry of many places.There has never been a problem getting a table so we don't want to shout about it too much but it really deserves a five star mention.
