Absolutely loved this place, so much so that I had to leave a review - not something I do often! Lived in the area years and feel comfortable saying this was one of the best places I've eaten at in a long time. Service was great, food was excellent. Well done team - you've got a new soon to be returning customer, we will definitely be back!

Reviews seem hit & miss. But we had amazing food. Meat thali was gorgeous. Service needs improving & had a mix up with their online booking & actual opening times. But good quality food at a great price

Fabulous. Go try this restaurant. Amazing service, food, drink and atmosphere. Fish starter was outstanding as was my son's chicken thigh tikka. Main courses of Railway lamb curry and chicken saag, both superb. Definitely will return with friends. **Tip not included or option on the bill so please tip if you liked the experience.** (Management should add the option as their staff fully deserved a tip)

Was on the fence after seeing some recent review but thought to try it out, and I'm glad I did. Really well priced. The Meat Thali as pictured was £13 and included the rice, naan and starters. Food was very tasty. Beer choice is great with some beers that are rarely seen in other bars. Highly recommend and I'll be back. EDIT - The pricing on the menu has changed and all items have increased in price, with some shooting up a fair bit. Some items nearly increasing by 50% which is a huge overnight hike. Worth taking into consideration if anyone decides to visit.

Cool name very catchy. Inside is nice decor. Good menu, just I don't personally like they way the menu set out as its very colour clashing and different size text. Small range for vegetarian. The chaat is really nice and quite a large portion. The staff are friendly and do a good job.

Dined in at the Crafty Indian in a group of 4, after previously been really impressed with a take away. We ordered a variety of dishes including starters, curries and veg and meat thali. We were all in agreement about how tasty our dishes were, the great selection of beers/ wine available and the excellent service. Having all visited India and eaten curries all over the world, we were also in agreement that Indian cuisine does not come much better than at the Crafty Indian, a totally pleasant experience from start to finish.

The food in Crafty Indian is absolutely perfect! I had the best curry outside of India. Since we moved in the area, we tried different places and none of them managed to impress us like this place. I had the Aloo Tiki chaat and the paneer dish. Both of them tasted fantastic. My husband had the momos and the veggie tally and he loved the flavours. We will definitely come back!

The food here is always good, it's great for anyone who's not so great at handling spice as their food is full of flavour but not too spicy. Whenever we've sat in, the restaurant has been really quiet, which is a shame as there's no atmosphere then but that's out of their control. We now tend to do takeaway instead but it's still just as good. I don't think they do delivery it's pick up or sit in but worth the drive.

Amazing place on the main road to Saltaire, brilliant food made with the best ingredients and you can tell they take pride in what they source and produce. I'd recommend trying everything there's no bad meal here! Parking can be a bit of an issue, there are some spaces outside and some on the side street though. In summary a great visit, food was lovely and the service was top notch.

We have been here before and really enjoyed it so much so we went again. The service was great but the food was far too hot and spicy all 4 that we got was so hot we couldn’t eat it.

We ordered the butter chicken, fish pakora, chilli chicken, tandoori chicken with Naans and the only thing remotely edible was the naans. The butter chicken tasted off, the fish pakoras has a weird batter that literally tasted and looked like a pancake was wrapped around the fish. The chilli chicken was way too spicy and was covered in red chilli paste and not the traditional chilli sauce you use for chilli chicken/paneer! The tandoori chicken was dry and hard and was just covered in masala which was overbearing - not worth the money

I went to the restaurant today for the 2nd time. And this time we had experienced very poor service by them . There are 4 people of staff 2 Punjabi's and 1 is cook girl and 1 is handling customer service but that girl is very poor in service. And we ordered Ciroc red berry vodka and that time that girl said I will check and then she came and said we have no vodka and then she said and you can check and we checked and we found ciroc vodka on the shelf. Look ,she doesn't even know which is ciroc vodka. And then we ordered garlic chili chicken and chicken Tikka and both of the items are very salted and not warm and cold . This kind of service you have given to your customer. And then last part was we ordered Dhaba chicken and tandoori roti and that she Said anything else because we are closing soon . We have just received the last dish and hardly get 5 minutes and she said we are closing soon. This the way you are treating your customer . Simply said don't waste your money in this restaurant. Food: worst Service: worst Staff: (2 Punjabi boys and 2 girls). I guess Customer Relations and satisfaction doesn't matter for them . Not even deserve one star. Really. Worst Service ever.

This place is vibrant from the outside signage to the delicious food served inside. A really refreshing offering of authentic Street food, a far cry from the boring repetitive range of dishes in 'traditional' British curry houses. The decor is bright and fun, the staff were very sweet and helpful, lovely smiley friendly service. The food was delicious! Prices are very reasonable. I highly recommend the tarka dal, masala chips (divine!), chole bhature and gobi manchurian. Can't wait to return to try more of the menu.

I am a regular customer, and I still hope and believe that the quality that was once will be again, lately I'm almost always disappointed Do they also give that kind of food to the people who sit at their restaurant ? I work hard and I'm glad they cook fresh food every day, but apparently no one looks after it and they don't care what they sell, what they give me can't be eaten . they even dared to tell me personally what they think about the reviews I wrote about their food , it was unpleasant, but unfortunately I only wrote the truth. This is how they value a regular customer! no point in spending money there anymore . and such burnt meat is put into Butter chicken ..

They cook fresh food every day, I order food after 5 o'clock and then I driving to pick up , so my food is freshly cooked , and very hot . so far the best naan around : when you lucky, it used to be, today it is completely different , it's like a lottery, lately they spoil everything. it probably depends on what kind of staff cooks. : Be careful when you eat butter chicken curries, sometimes there are bones , or burnt meat . it seems that the containers are half empty, but this is how they sell it . now those containers are almost empty with 3 pieces of meat, the naans are oily thinner than paper and harden to rock instantly .. it's really not worth it anymore . See the new photos as they have changed, see what they can sell, they make me sick ..

Been visiting the Crafty Indian or getting takeaways for a good few years. On previous visits it has not been overly busy so turning up on speck this time we expected the same. The place was bursting at the seams with a number of large groups. We were told about a 15 minute wait that was spot on and drinks and popadoms came quickly. Just as quickly as the place emptying, it filled up again, which was great to see for a local business. The waitress had a lot to cope with and was awesome and assisted by the 2 lads behind the bar, did admit that it was never this busy but kept us informed of things and was helpful. The main courses were very tasty although may have taken longer to arrive due how busy they were compared with previous visits, but are reasonably priced and would recommend. Beavertown Neck Oil, Verdant Lamp Shade and Camden Helles Lager were the craft beers on offer.

Came here yesterday with my wife (not our first time, use to love it) dont get me wrong the food is lovely however, in the most recent visits this place has gone down hill. We came on mothers day and the waitress was alone with a full restaurant. Waitress looked over worked and this isnt the first time we have seen her on her own. We came in yesterday to see new staff, the blonde one being very rude and bored of her job, food was ok, but a few times in our visits the food has been raw and fatty, we love to support small buisnesses in these hard times but will not stand for children being over worked and will not support a company that cannot cook the food fully. What seemed to look like a boss was also not helpful towards staff on any of the visits (when he showed up) both sit at the bar eating and drinking. Hard honesty but place needs a eye opener. On top restaurant had a strange smell to it yesterday, and needs to move the trolley with cutlery as its very noisy. Probably wont be returning in the near future, hopefully they can go back to how it was a couple of months ago as its was the best in bradford!

My friend chose this venue after a recommendation...perhaps things are a tad relaxed on a Wednesday evening but I was disappointed and won't rush back. Friendly lass as front of house but not the most customer service orientated. Dirty cutlery in the container on the table, items not available on the menu ( no potato and aubergine curry ) and no gulab jamun for dessert. Know why? It's like the tomatoes.....said Miss Front of House....? They're in short supply, can't get them anywhere. Reeling from this revelation, I paid the bill; two £1 charges for the Railway Children. I queried what on earth this was....I know various adaptations of the book have been filmed locally but what? I'd been charged £2 without my consent for an Indian charity. I had one entry removed but who I give money to is MY business. You can ask, you don't sneak the charge onto my bill without asking. Food was ok, ambience needs to improve, take the cleaning trolley out of the restaurant....you need to look at your business with an outsider's eyes. I won't be back.

Hugely disappointed. This is my honest review, I phoned the takeaway to resolve amicably however the owner laughed on the phone. Reasons for low review are below. Travelled 30 mins one way to collect and try for the first time. 1) Asked for a dish 1 very mild curry and this was noted on the order, curry turned out to be extra spicy, the owners wife was cooking that day and I was told by the owner after I had complained that she had seen an Indian name on the order so decided to make it extra spicy, very judgmental and bizarre action to take! Unprofessional! 2) Main dish 2 butter chicken contained two bones in it, owner told me the supplier didn’t debone it correctly. A main such as butter chicken should not contain bones! dangerous when you don’t expect them! 3) Chips were literally wet and soggy Asked for a full refund, rightly so but was offered a free replacement, due to the poor experience was offered a full replacement next week but then owner back tracked and said 50% off instead, I declined rightly so again and said a full refund is what I want, Refused to resolve amicably so I have left this honest review. It is the principle. Please don’t be unprofessional and inconvenience customers like this. I hope you use this feedback to improve your business and take it on.

My husband and I had a wonderful meal at The Crafty Indian in Shipley, while staying at Salts House, a few doors down the road. The owner is passionate about quality local ingredients and reducing waste. The portion sizes were just right for us. We had two 'roadside snacks', steamed veg momos and pani puri and two 'street curries', aloo baingan and tarka daal. It was great to try some new vegan dishes washed down with a couple of delicious craft beers. The food tasted very fresh and the flavours were perfectly balanced. Also heart warming to see that you can donate to the excellent charity, Railway Children if you wish. We took away some masala nuts for our journey home and they did not disappoint! Thanks to the welcoming team for a great experience. We hope to return when we are in the area again.

We stopped off here by chance and thought the street food presentation was interesting. The food itself was well cooked and had good flavours and the concept of 2 snacks, 2 curries, rice and naan bread for a fixed price (different for meat or veg) was an interesting concept although laced with a risk as the choices aren't yours. Fairly small portions though but put together made a good sized meal. Friendly staff, too. Looked like good value on the menu but somehow the total cost crept up to just under twenty quid a head and we only had one drink each. I guess it's the little extras that add up like charging for the chutneys with the poppadoms etc? Slightly lacking in atmosphere and much more conducive to a quick meal rather than a long evening having an Indian meal. Still, an interesting experience and well worth a try.

The food here was amazing, there was a sign on the wall stating that no artificial colours or preservatives were used on their food and you could most certainly tell. We had the pickle try, with popdoms that were still warm and the corriander was extremely fresh and the onions on the pickle tray were a firm favourite For starters we shared Garlic chill Chicken which was severed with salad the chicken was full of flavour and tender, we also had the Pani Puri vegetarian dish that was like an explosion of flavours in the mouth We then had the Railway Mutton curry again tender and full of flavour. We also had a Murgh Tikks Tali the roti again was still warm severed with a crunchy salad, fresh Rita and masala chips which again were all freshly cooked and full of flavour. My husband assures me the craft beers were good and I enjoyed the Gin and wine. The staff were very accommodating, nothing was too much trouble even when we asked to move table. Loved the decor and concept will most certainly return Only thing that could be better would be them opening in Haworth where I live lol.

Booked after a tasting at Keelham Farm Shop (they do their curries) and loved it! Starters were delicious and great portion size, main course curry was SOOOO good! Naans amazing, popadoms and pickles divine and an impressive range of beers to wash it down. Will definitely be coming back!

PLEASE DISREGARD the last review. NOT TRUE I was present in The Crafty Indian - waiting for a takeaway. This man had not been in the resturant, he was heavily drunk - was trying to get in his car, and drive. He was stopped by the owner only not to drive. But he continued to be abusive to the owner. This is a wonderful place to have true Indian food

What an amazing little find. Went last week for the first time and can't describe how delicious the food is. The butter chicken was in a league of it's own compared to the numerous other restaurants we've eaten in. The flavour was so authentic and like no other curry I've ever had before. The staff couldn't have been more helpful and the atmosphere was extremely relaxed and friendly. I would definitely recommend giving The Crafty Indian a try as you won't be disappointed. The owners should be so proud of what they have achieved as whatever they are doing, it works.

Disappointing experience and a little overpriced in my opinion. The enticements were clear - but the restaurant, food, staff just didnt deliver on the expectation. Slow service and young staff who need better training - we found it difficult to get their attention and the service we expected when things were not correct or dishes missing etc. Food was on the bland side, but really high salt levels it has to be said - to my taste, dangerously so! I have seen other reviews finding the same salty tinge to the food served, so you have been warned. Starters could have been warmer for sure, unclear if even made fresh or reheated and main dishes a little bit oily perhaps. Rice and Naan were acceptable - nothing to shout about. Had a couple of beers to quench the salt thirst - and a pint of water when i got home! Not recommend for the curry connoisseur!

Excellent and different food came to the table piping hot and a freshly cooked. Delish. Funky decor, spotless bathrooms and some nice humorous touches this is a very different curry house experience. And at long last a refreshing from vegetarian Hindu and meaty Muslim is this offering from the Sikh community, who let's face it are doing a cracking job of feeding the bulk of the homeless in London and various other cities the UK, voluntarily. And it's licenced; brilliant. Try it.

Lovely food and fabulous service. Great choice of beers on offer and my husband loves the spiced fish and chips Fridays. I like the thalis as it means I don't have to choose and get to try multiple things.

Friend suggested we try it, starters expensive for the portion size. Main was what sounded like a delicious chicken curry, unfortunately chicken thigh meat which was not described on the menu and turned my stomach, the portion was tiny. Incredibly poor meal came away still...

The restaurant delivered to the wrong address. We called up. He said "oh well I've delivered it now. You've got to take it up with Uber because they didn't give me the whole post code". No desire to try and rectify the situation and re-deliver. Just a case of "sort it out yourself, it's not our problem". Terrible customer service. Rude person over the phone. They've now lost some regular local customers.

The food. The food is pretty good and reasonably priced. Portions are a little on the small side but it all tasted fresh. Though it took over 30 minutes each for both the starter and mains to arrive. Peeking into the kitchen it seems there was a power struggle going on between the kitchen staff and the owner, with most of his time spent in the kitchen re-arrange tickets on the line, for then the kitchen staff to re-arrange them back. (as a side, we ordered for take-out once and it took 2.5hours to arrive, slow service seems to be a common thing here). With such a limited menu you would think service would be quicker. Staff/Service. All the staff seem glazed over, disinterested and attempting to get their attention was like trying to flag down a taxi; you're not sure if they are going to stop or not. They all go around with their eyes to the ground. Also, for a place selling craft beer, one member of staff had no clue what a 'stout' was; so had no idea if they sold any or not. Drinks. Drinks are very overpriced and there are no prices upfront anywhere. £2.00 for a 330ml (can sized) coke. But the beer takes the biscuit. I understand it sells "craft" beer and as an avid craft beer drinker I was excited at the prospect but two 440ml cans of "Brew York Rhubarbra Streisand Rhubarb Milkshake Pale" - which retails for around £3.00 a can - was being sold for £6.50. Atmosphere There is none. Its extremely loud, the music choice is poor and all the staff are running around like blue-arsed flies.

I've been here many times, with friends and with family and we've never had a bad meal. The Thali trays are amazing. Really tasty and a very consistent restaurant. We always leave very happy.

First time here and they fit us in at the last minute due to a booking issue elsewhere which we were grateful for. This is totally different to the run of the mill Indian restaurant and pleasantly surprised. Really tasty food which was piping hot, well presented and a lovely waitress serving it as well. Will definitely return.

Ordered a smash burger and… well it isn’t a smash burger. It’s a a Sloppy Joe: all well and good if that’s what you’re after, but perhaps the chef needs to look into what it is? I’d suggest Mr T’s as a good example. On the flip side, the Sloppy Joe was decent.

Absolutely beautiful food. Very friendly staff who are always wanting to help. The place was empty which I couldn’t understand why given how nice the food, the atmosphere and the people who work there are. We will absolutely be going back!

Had a beautiful keema rogan josh tonight and some onion bhajis although te bahjis were a little overdone, the waiter RajKumar was very professional and polite. All in all a good night.
