Absolutely hands down one of the most enjoyable places to eat. I normally order food for delivery and it is always superb, arrives on time and accompanied by a warm friendly face. Eating inside the resteraunt really shows you the passion, love and enthusiasm the whole team have. It is clear, regardless of why you are spending your evening there, they want your experience to be one to remember. Indeed, I have two memories: the first brilliant customer service and the second, some of the most delicious food I have tasted. Nothing seems too much trouble for the dedicated staff, who just want you to enjoy yourself. The resteraunt is quiet but not without a really positive atmosphere. When I ate there, there was a real mix of people, ranging from couples, small friendship groups through to a couple of birthday gatherings. I guess it felt as if everyone was part of a 'family' held together by a love of fine food and the energy of the staff who were happy to listen to customer needs, meet them with ease and sing happy birthday if needed. If you are in the Rainford area or fancy making the journey to eat at this fantastic resteraunt you won't be disappointed and you will leave with some happy memories of your own. Thank you and see you again soon. Paul.

I've tried so many Indian restaurants but I always come back to The Cottage. The service is top tier, the gents there all being very attentive and happy to accommodate reasonable changes or requests. But the food is obviously the main draw; it's almost always consistently delicious and generous with its portions. And the prices are very fair, at least when eating in the restaurant (takeaway is a bit expensive). The cherry on the cake is that they serve beef! I live in Rainford and this is one of the best places to eat in all of St Helens.

The chicken curry was tasteless, and very bland , the chicken very dry and the sauce had no flavour and it was only just warm , the Nan bread was also disappointing , soggy & no taste , the boiled rice , well that was even dull, the other dish a chicken tikka was not much better , at nearly £30 very dissatisfied, ohh and btw had an upset stomach for days after

It was a pleasant surprise. I was working in the area and read the reviews and wasn't disappointed. The staff were nice and I had a dish that I hadn't come across before. It is definitely worth going. There is also loads of parking around the back of the restaurant.

I dont usually eat at Indian restaurants, coz 7 out of 10 you see are not authentic. Anyway we were travelling to blackpool for a family trip after a fun filled tiring day at knowsley park. Ordered mix tikka starter. Lamb was chewy and I couldnt eat. Informed some one looked liked a head waiter, no appologies, no reaction, flat face. Eagerly waiting for main course ordered garlic naan, chicken tikka masala. No garlic flavour what so ever in the naan. And chicken tikka masala reminds me of cherries in sugar syrup. Awful experience. Never again.

The Cottage Tandoori was amazing. The food was absolutely delicious and there was so .any things to choose from. I am not one for an Indian but wow I am now a lover of it. The staff were very friendly, exceptional and the service was excellent they didn't rush with the starters and the mains. Just overall it was amazing.

Today would of been my brothers 50th and wanted to have a nice meal to celebrate with my other half. We got such a welcoming reception. We ordered loads of poppadoms and dips and staff recommended a dish I should have for main as I’m so fussy. Main came was delightful was all so hot and tasted so fresh. We paid the bill and after paying we was given a extra little drink which was muchly appreciated! Thanks so much for making my evening feel extra special at such a hard time. See you In the new year.

I have been supporting this restaurant since it opened, with meals and takeaways, I wouldn’t go to any other Indian Restaurant nearby and have always been loyal. However the past two times I have eaten in, myself and my family haven’t even been greeted with a smile. The majority of the staff, and one waiter in particular, makes it very obvious he doesn’t want you there, and is very rude. Your staff used to be so friendly and helpful, however now I feel like simply asking for a drink is far too much trouble. The restaurant is now noticeably less busy, and this is probably why. I won’t be going back for my weekly takeaway nor meals, which is a shame as the food is good, and I want to support a local business.

Sorry but one of the worst takeaways currys I've ever had.. Lamb tikka messalla.. Meat had a funny taste.. Keema rice was tasteless. Onion bajis were nice and I liked the yogurt sauce. And I have to say portions are good.. Have a word with the chef or get some mystery shoppers in. If you want a fantastic curry try the Diya Indian on East lancs by windle island.. Maybe I just picked the wrong curry.. Not for me though.. I've binned it and now eating some chicken soup and toast.

Good food good service at a reasonable price. We had the kurchi lamb for 4 people you need to give 24hrs notice when ordering. It was fantastic not a hot curry dish so remember when you order if you want it hotter. It is a whole leg of lamb with all the trimmings. Starters included. You will not go hungry. Give it a try you won't be disappointed.
