Shapla Tandoori in Preston

Absolutely fantastic Indian takeaway! The staff are always incredibly friendly, welcoming, and genuinely honest — you can tell they care about their customers. The food is consistently outstanding, with rich, authentic flavors that never disappoint. Their curries and biryanis are hands down the best I’ve had — packed with taste, perfectly spiced, and cooked to perfection. The portion sizes are generous, and the prices are very reasonable, especially considering the quality. A true gem for anyone who loves great Indian food! KM

First time ordering and won't be the last, food was tasty and hot, arrived on time

We order here a lot, the food is consistantly excellent. But there are ALWAYS things missing from your order. Just ordered chicken tikka, pilau rice and naan bread. For me and a biriani for my wife, went to collect it. Got it home and no chicken tikka. You phone up to complain and they tell you they will send the chicken tikka out as if the rice, sauce and bread will still be hot when it comes. So annoying they do the hard things right ie the food, but can't manage to put it all in the same bag I usually get them to check it but I didn't ask tonight (more fool me). 🤬

Without a doubt one of the best Indian takeaways I have had in a long time. I am so grateful because they deliver and I live quite a way. Thank you so much for fabulous food great service and I’m very grateful that you travel. Thank you.

Took 2 hours from ordering to it actually arriving. Not happy at all. rang twice to complain about how long and was told won’t be long both times and still took the mick.

Amazing food. Lovely polite driver. Highly recommended.

Dinner was over cooked dry not edible

The lamb was so touch he couldn't eat it

As usual great food and quick delivery. Highly recommended

very dry kebab and tasteless naan.

Very friendly staff and food also so delicious 😋.

Decent standard Indian grub, can't fault it

Delivery never within estimated time waited 1 hr 30 tonight instead of the estimated 45 mins not good at all

Full of flavour ! Full of magic ! Tasty flavour flav.

Even though the food was later then said it was well worth the wait still hot and was out of this world one of the best India I've had will use again thank you

Food was ok but had to wait two hours for food to arrive. Rang the first time to ask where food was and they said its on the way 45 mins later had to ring again as still no food. 2 hours later we had our food.

Tasty food and great portion sizes

The order took 2 and a half hours, the estimate when ordering was 1 hour. The restaurant weren't interested when I called. They said it would be 5 minutes (it wasn't)

Despite delivery time being 1.45 mins wait it was late and cold by the time food had arrived, overall unsatisfactory won’t be ordering again. Driver just sat in his car outside the property on a call could hear his call.

Great food and delivered within time expected. Will use again definitely

not got what I ordered. I will be in touch personally

Potatoes in the curry were not cooked

order was late . told on way several times but it clearly was not. hour later driver rang to say on way but was another 20 mins

Absolutely delicious. Really enjoyed. Will definitely be ordering again. My new favourite. 10 out of 10

best curry iv tasted in a long time. defintly order again from them

that meal was fantastic really good

Late delivery but this was not fault delivery guy . Restaurant busy. Delivery guy very nice . Thank u

Lean, tender meat. Rice fine. Bland, tasteless sauce. Thanks for coming out in the weather. I forgot to tip you!

The food was delicious. Good price. Best biryani I have ever had! Spring rolls were rummy and delivery on time! Definitely recommend.

normally not a problem. but tonight I'm disappointed I order a kebab box with curry sauce as a extra. witch I thought it wouldn't come separately but didn't.. so the box a soggy mess. not worth the money this evening unfortunately

food was great but delivery driver didn’t shut gate which is now bust cheers

The meat in all dishes is extremely dry, we've basically eaten sauce rice and potatoes. Far to much pastry on the samosas and chicken pakoras have far too much batter. Very disappointed as last time we ordered from here it was lovely

This must be the best Indian Takeaway I have ever eaten. Mouth watering Mixed starter & the best Bombay Aloo U have ever tasted. The Chicken Rogan Josh was absolutely delicious accompanied by the Naan Bread. Well worth ordering Meal for one !

Food was extremely late not a lot of flavour and basically cold

Still not delivered and u are telling me it is

I messed up and ordered no sauce (thinking it meant mayo etc) it meant actually curry sauce, i rang to ask about my curry sauce with my munchie box, they explained no sauce was the curry, sent one out to me in 10 mins for no extra charge, fab people!

High quality food. Biryani was legit.

Absolutely shocking attitude by the delivery driver. He started having a pop at me because he couldn’t find the house and it was my fault that he tried ringing me and it wouldn’t connect… he said his satnav took him down the road so that was my fault and I need to change it on google maps. Completely ruined the experience.

Food came on time and was hot. Food was delicious the chilli chicken starter was spot on. Will be using this as a regular now

lukewarm food, over half an.hour late

Really nice food and a good price. Definitely recommend.

Got a great chicken chilli masala here last night. Absolutely delicious. Will be adding this to my regular food places

The delivery took a long time to take, perhaps it was for the cooking.

perfectly hot when arrived, excellent quality as always, extremely tasty.

Ordered a chicken tikka byirani sauce was tasteless . Was missing something with the seasoning of the chicken and rice. Didnt eat much of it. Shame usually a good takeaway. Wished I hadn’t spent the money on it

Always late. Ordered 18:30 and food arrived 20:15

Items missing, call and offered a refund that was never processed

Nice taste and quality food thanks

Food was late and it was absolutely freezing. We have the same problem everytime we order. Stopped ordering for a while but thought we would give it another go. Will not be going again

delivery took a while and was later than expected but everything arrived hot and tasty. Plenty of food to go around and was lovely and fresh. Will order again. thank you

I can except the 15 minutes because of the weather its a bit brutal out there 😅

order showed delivered but was 45 min late

Delivery perfect no issues, food was nice and hot, lovely and enjoyed it for the price was definitely worth it shapla is the best for currys and the garlic nan bread was lovely to , will recommend cant wait to re order again

Chips were hard no taste to the curry very bland

Shapla never disappoint, the food is always hot, fresh and delicious. The chicken pakoras melt in the mouth!

Originally 8:20-8:40 delivery, didn't receive it till 9:25!

quality food, hot on delivery (bonus), i use Shapla frequently as the food is always tasty

arrived on time and piping hot. full of flavor and a generous portion to. definitely coming back.

food was fantastic and still warm enough despite late delivery. would order from them again

Amazing as always. Fantastic food and prompt delivery can’t complain

Lovely food, delivered on time. Lovely delivery driver, very pleasant man!

The delivery driver didn't even tell me it was here he left it tied to the door

Delivered by a pleasantly friendly courier on time. Freshly made, flavourful, nice and hot. Very pleased!

ordered before opening time and selected 5:45 it arrived at 6:20 over half an hour late. Nice food but disappointing delivery time...again

Excellent value for money. 4th time ordering now and always tastes amazing.

2nd order recently where the quality has dropped massively with the lamb being terribly fatty

Food is always bang on, my go to place for a curry and will continue to use, it's just the time it takes for delivery. Last order was just over 2 hours, I get you maybe busy but come on this needs sorting as it seems an issue across the board with everyone, your letting your reputation down there as your food is amazing. **had another order while I was full of a cold, asked for madras nice and hot to help me sweat it out.... received a lovely extra hot madras with a message from the owners to say get well soon which was a great personal touch, and the Mrs got a kebab box and I was very jealous it was bloody amazing, fantastic value, I tried to swap but she wasn't having it haha, I'm defo getting one of them kebab boxes, thanks again shapla**

Ordered food at 8:00 and still waiting at 9:50 Absolutely shocking service and I don't know why I gave them a second chance as this has happened in the past. Hopefully be better than my last order which was 24 hours late

didn't send full order and was late and cold.

Staff member was very helpful good food great telephone manner .

Estimated food time was up to an hour of ordering Checked delivery status update and it said food had been delivered and it hadn't. Contracted the restaurant they said it was on its way. Twenty minutes rang again then it turned up stone cold&hrlate

Never had a bad meal from here, everything is always Fresh. Thanks

The food his unbelievable but it was 30 minutes late

Arrived without popadums. One phone call and quickly rectified. Highly recommended.

Terrible gone downhill big time. Used to be the best curry house in Preston

Absolutely terrible. Used to order regularly from here and wait times were always slightly long but you didn’t mind as the product was quality. This time we waited 2hr50 for it to be delivered which is not acceptable and it was stone cold. The food is less in quality now and just not good at all. Given it enough chances now and it’s not improving. Will not be returning again unfortunately

My food was very cold and not fit to eat I am very disappointed as I was looking forward to my food.

Two hours later the food was finally delivered cold and unpleasant.

3 prawns in a whole biryani….not worth to order

Great but expensive with all the extra chargers

Avoid worst service i have even seen delivery driver didn't care he was late when i called them they didn't care avoid at all costs

great food as usual hot and tasty

Wow everything arrived hot and must compliment the chef as the onion bhajas were the best they were not at all greasy and really crispy just how we like them. Also the takeaway read the note and we didn’t have any coriander in or on any of the food 10/10. We will definitely order from here again as we want to try different dishes. Thank you for the great food it was delicious.

Just Eat hgadnt passed on my correct deetails, so driver was lost

all pretty bland and tasteless. wouldn't order again

lovely food just ashame it was half hour late

ordered donner on chips salad chilli sauce and garlic sauce. there WAS NO salad. chilli or garlic sauce. donner meat wasn't up to usual stAndard. very dry

Ordered on line for pick up. Ready as i arrived. ordered chicken dansak and chicken tikka biriani. The food was fantastic. Well priced will order again.

I am diabetic so need food to be on time. Was told it was on its way 45mins before by app.

My food was very tasty but not a lot of chicken and lamb in my biryani

Good absolutely excellent as usual

ermm I have not received it yet.

Ordered meal 6.36 now 8 -15 still no meal could you please refund my money to late to eat food now thanks it also states order delivered but it has not been delivered thanks

The kebabs need way more chicken and lamb. Very stingy with it

I got the munchie box. They forgot the curry sauce. The chips were old. It arrived lukewarm and took an hour delivery even though I live 15 minutes away and no traffic as very late. The donner meat was also a bit dry and crusty. The other food was alright but i wont be ordering again. Best think was the chicken pakoras and onion bahjis.

DON'T ORDER HERE. Food was hour and half late. Portion wouldn't even fill up a child. The chicken tikka was litterally 5 pieces of chicken and it took them 2 hours to make.

Absolutely stunning food! The nicest Indian takeaway I've ever been to! Everything was soooo tasty! The onion bhajis are unreal! Big portions. Worth every penny! Will 100% be returning!

All of the food was great as usual, but the vindaloo was amazing last night.

Been waiting two hours now driver set off 40 mins ago for a five minute drive shocking still not here

I pre ordered my food to be delivered at 19:10pm sat waiting and it never showed up till 20:00pm was absolutely livid as I preorded it so I could settle down with food just after my son went to bed. why allow pre order if you can't keep to the times
