Excellent food, The Sultan Of Lancaster is my favourite Indian restaurant in Lancaster. My husband and I are trying to eat healthier, so I ordered a healthy option, chicken tikka and my husband had a lamb madras. I requested if they could please reduce the oil if possible. The food was perfect and prepared with minimal oil. Highly recommended.

One of the best Indian restaurants I’ve been to in ages. The variety of options on the menu is huge, with loads of authentic Indian dishes. Top quality service and a really nice interior design. Really high quality of food, came 10-15 mins after ordering. Highly recommend.

When I was a student in Lancaster, sultan’s was the place where we went to for a special meal out, coming back it was lovely to see it’s still as special. The food and the service, still top notch ! Special shout out to the chutney tray and lamb biryani !

My friend and I met up and decided to go for an Indian meal, so we headed to Sultans—and we weren’t disappointed. The food was absolutely amazing! I had the butter chicken, and it was the best I’ve had anywhere. The keema naan was thick, packed with flavour, and generously filled with meat—absolutely delicious. Easily the best Indian restaurant in town by a long shot. I’ll definitely be returning. The service from all the staff was excellent too.

Ordered a takeaway from here last night. Wow. What a menu, some totally random dishes! My 11 year old tried the frogs legs which I was surprised by but absolutely loved them and had been talking about them today, we tried an array of items. The chilli pepper chips were super spicy and slightly soggy think they need a bit more oven crisps before adding the onions etc however tasted really nice. Tried abit of all of the dishes. Was looking for an Indian and stumbled across this. 8/10

Han estado visitando Sultanes de Lancaster por muchos años. Siempre una experiencia encantadora. Después de haber estado lejos de la zona durante un tiempo, nuestro regreso hace unos meses significó, por supuesto, un regreso a comer en Sultanes... ¡y realmente es incluso mejor de lo que era! Ofrece un menú mucho más extenso de lo que recordamos, con tantos platos nuevos para nosotros. Esperamos probarlos todos. Hasta ahora, hemos saboreado media docena y nos han encantado todos y cada uno. Cocinado a la perfección, ingredientes de buena calidad, atractivamente presentado y servido por un agradable personal servicial. Particularmente agradable para mí es la sensación de que es un ambiente seguro y cómodo para una mujer solitaria para cenar. No dudaría en sentarme aquí solo para disfrutar de una comida agradable y quizás mientras estaba fuera leyendo un libro. No hay juerguistas intoxicados alborotados aquí como a veces se experimenta últimamente en una serie de restaurantes del centro de la ciudad. Ya esperamos nuestra próxima visita al sultán... Ps: solicitud educada de consideración. ¿Alguna posibilidad de que vuelva el delicioso Batido de Rosas del Sultán? Nos encantaría volver a verla en el menú.

Have been a customer of Sultans for well over 25 years, spending many a pleasurable visit there with family and friends. Having moved away from Lancaster City Centre for a while, it’s been lovely upon our recent return to re-acquaint ourselves with the restaurant. New staff, new menu. Fabulous quality & choice of food, attentive friendly service and as always a pleasant safe environment free of the sometimes weekend rowdiness found elsewhere. As a lone female, I’m very comfortable in dining there alone with just a book for company. Looking forward very much to my next visit. So much more on the menu to try…

The samosas at £1 each is a rip off, very small. At least 2 for £1, the onion bajees are worse, how can you charge £1 each? They are small to say the least.

Ordered online. Easy to order. Collected my order, service was great. It was extremely busy and I was asked politely to take a seat for 5mins. I overheard a telephone order, they were told their order could be over 1hr 40mins and still decided to order. I understand why they were willing to wait when I got home and opened my food. Everything was so fresh and tasted delicious. I will recommend this little hidden gem to everyone.
