The Curry Cottage in Bromley

I ordered take away from what appeared to be their website (I later found out this is outsourced to third parties). Delivery was meant to take 30-45 minutes. 2 hours later, 4 calls to both the VC restaurant itself AND the third party website operator), my food finally arrived. What made me most angry was that the restaurant kept promising it was just a few minutes away. In the end I had to make dinner for my kids because it was past their bedtime. The website operator finally 'promised' me a refund (surprise! They didn't in the end) and my food suddenly appeared 10 minutes later. The food was average...all curries basically the same flavour with more or less chilli. I won't be returning.

Really good food and i like the chicken tikka and the pilau if there was a six out of 5 i'd rate it 10000/5

It's a "traditional olde-fashioned English" curry house. Splendid. Go there!

Always an excellent meal. I had chicken dupiaza and my wife had a vegetable curry main dish. We shared a special rice and a paratha. Delicious meal and excellent staff. I highly recommend, ten out of ten.

There was 4 of us and the table was a bit small. Good sized portions and food was good

very good food and people ,,,,

one of the best korma I've had, very tasty. only down fall about the meal was the pashwa nan bread, it was non flavoured and tasted very out of date. was discusting. hence 4 stars not 5. but would defo order again but maybe not the nan bread.

they keep putting the delivery time back - not impressed

Food was ok please follow instruction’s next time asked for Salmon Tikka to be well done this was ignored. So item was thrown as my partner could not eat it how it came.

Ask for spice on the biryani and they made it spicy now that is service. Food was lovely just what I wanted

A very nice Restaurant in Beckenham with a quiet atmosphere.Food was excellent,waiters very friendly,what more can you ask for. Definately worthwhile visiting.A longterm customer.

A lovely curry. Great service.

After taste lingered the next day. Tikka tiny but expensive, and didn't taste right, the balti didn't taste right either, too much of something in the sauce I think, lingered for next day. Cold naan bread. Nothing had quite the right flavour.

First visit. Good food and good service

It was delivered well and great service however the bhuna was a bit bland sadly.

Really great Indian Restaurant, the food was really delightful and tasty. The meal are really accessible moneywise. A great recommendation for Beckenham and surroundings.

Tasty tasty tasty lovely moist chicken very fresh

Ordered takeaway from Uber .. Was delivered on time great tasting hot food. Will order again soon or come for sit down in restaurant

Delivered on time and still hot! All the dishes were good and would recommend this restaurant/takeaway.

Really tasty food which came quickly. The chicken tasted so lovely and smokey in the sauce, absolutely loved it and will order from here again!

Food wasn't enjoyable, not much flavour to it a d lack of vegetables in curries.

I tried the tikka masala few months months ago and it was loverly, a bit pricey and small portion but was good to tried again this week and I got the worst masala I ever had in my life. Just tasted like old tomato paste , did they change chef? Or I was unlucky with a bad batch. Shame really as the first round tasted good.

Very bland, but spicy it’s hard to explain but certainly not good.

Utterly disgusting food. Cold and not cooked properly. Will never order from them again .

Very good food, arrived hot and absolutely on time - all good, we'll definitely be ordering from you again!

Lamb curry had 5pieces of meat not worth £9 and it was all fatty korma sauce was so salty like they have just put a whole pot of salt in the korma sauce and the food was cold won’t be ordering from here again

Sorry to say I won’t be ordering again. The food turned up cold & the chicken in the korma was really gristle & chewing to the point it wasn’t enjoyable & couldn’t be eaten. Shall go elsewhere in future 😩

Good food from Beckenham Curry Cottage. Will use again

Lovely food. Was delivered on time hot and very tasty we will be ordering again. :)

Good traditional food have been go to this restaurant for 10 years and will continue to do so during 2023

Really good quality food, loved it all. The chicken was great, moist and sauces tasty. The onion bhajis were great too.

Really tasty. Fast delivery. Friendly driver.

Lovely really enjoyed our meal

Nice little curry house I went to post movie. Food was lovely and the staff friendly. Will be going again.

No flavour to either the Garlic Naan or the Chilli Naan. Both tasted the same! The ice cream tasted good but the there was barely a mouthful for £4.50

Really underwhelmed by the naans. Both the chilli and garlic naans tasted very similar (no real flavour). Rogan Josh was under spiced with the overriding flavour being tinned tomatoes. Not the worst Indian meal I've ever had but a long way off the best.

Cold, currys was like soup or stew, late

Very tasty food especially the cod and the prawn sag.

Hard chewy meat Hard potatoes Soft greasy bhajis, should be crispy Mint sauce and mango chutney was not nice Flavours were nice but got textures all wrong, overall disappointed

Very tiny portion today and chicken a bit tough. Not much taste either. Shame as normally very good

Thus is the only place I buy my curry's from, the food is always fresh and tasty. Good portion size and always pipping hot ready to eat.

Food wasn’t good Not expected for the quality and the taste for the restaurant ratings.

I want not asked at all if the food was OK the service was slow because the staff were too buy on their phones portions were good but the chicken although moist on the outside was dry on the inside soft drinks very expensive and overall fairly tasteless no good.

- Chicken in curry was extremely tough, some of it inedible. Curry sauce was very nice though. - Food Delivery quicker than expected. - Tiny onion bhajis portion compared to the 5+ other indians in beckenham I have tried. - Rest of the portion sizes were decent. - No free poppadoms on £20 order

1st time ordering , top quality , will be ordering again

Best Indian restaurant we've had food from in Beckenham/Bromley/Croydon. The chefs are happy to adapt orders and make food how desired.

My order never turned up…. and restaurant did not pick up my call!! Very hungry and very annoyed 😒

Food was bland and cold. We are regular customers and the food is always nice and enjoyable. Ordered the same food we always have and did not enjoy or eat the food. Wasted our money and very disappointed with the bland cold food we received.

Very greasy biryani, microwave meal would of been better.

Loved my visit to the Curry Cottage. Food was very tasty and very generous in portions, and the customer service was super friendly. Definitely looking forward to my next visit!

It was my birthday and we ordered a takeaway the food was awful it was like soup and burned spoken to curry cottage all we got is next time with order they would give us a discount. We would not order from here again it was terrible

Nothing wrong with the food in terms of flavour etc. Portions seemed a bit small, especially the potato, but I enjoyed the meal.

Prawn purée a little cold, otherwise food was lovely

starters were ok, prawn korma didn't have many prawns, veg biryani was tasty, but for my first order from this place, it was just ok, nothing special. I can't submit this without rating the restaurant service - difficult for a take-away!! I'll give 3 stars but really this should be not applicable.

Normally eat in the restaurant, but today it’s too cold to leave the house! As usual, food was fabulous.......

No nonsense curry emporium. A well established business serving good food.

Called to make an order at 10.30pm. Business closes at 11.30 pm. Reception asks the driver if he will deliver to my postcode (even though I have ordered before) and reception came back to the phone and lied and said the driver left to go home already. ( I speak bengali so unlucky for getting caught. Bad business.

main curries were mostly sauce not enough chicken or prawns

Got raw prawns in a prawn cocktail starter. If I'd asked for sushi that's fair enough but I didn't. Called them and they did nothing about it. Won't be using them again . The rest of the food was very average and small in portion.

My request was granted and the delivery man was very polite, thank you! Good Customer Service :-)

Really nice food, delivered hot and well packaged. Friendly and fast delivery. Loved it.

Curry was lovely although the chips were a bit sparse just a handful thrown in the bottom of a brown paper bag - for £2.70 was bit of a rip off. Otherwise good

Vegetable biryani was very bland. Disappointing.

Lovely curry our favourite in beckenham Curry cottage only has a three out of five food standards agency rating, dated March 2019.

Great service...lovely food and everything you'd expect from a good local curry house. Looking forward to coming back next I'm in Beckenham.

I always get a very , very good Chicken Dhansak and a Prawn Puri from here. Biryani can be a bit hit and miss.Usually get a takeaway, only dined in once but was so drunk I cant remember.

Overall the food was really good, it was a little cold considering how close the restaurant is to my address but I understand they have to wait for drivers. The garlic chicken was a little oily and the garlic was bitter but the naan breads were really good and the chicken tikka had a lovely flavour. I would order again.

Portion small & not filling. No Poppadoms. Too expensive for what it was.

Good food and service but nothing outstanding I would eat there again the naxt time I am in Beckenham

Food arrived late, the chicken and lamb were both dry, also very stingy on the portion sizes, the foil container was half full, so no extra sauce for my nann to dip into. Rang to complain and was told the manager would ring back but did not. I do not recommend, you can get much better else where.

One of the most satisfying meals I’ve had delivered. Lovely flavours, well portioned, meat to sauce ratio in the curry was excellent. Delivered in a very friendly manner at a distance. Thank you for a lovely meal, I will be back!

We ordered the Lamb Bhuna & Chicken Bhuna with the garlic naan. It was delicious. It had a lot of flavour with a thick curry sauce & onions, which were cooked to perfection (ie the onions were still crispy). It wasn't spicy (hot) for me, even though it's detailed as medium hot. I'm definitely going to order from them again & maybe, when everything is back to normal, go to their restaurant.

Excellent meal from Curry Cottage, arrived slightly earlier than expected (great, we were hungry!) and was as delicious as ever. V generous portions.

In the savage battlefield of Indian cuisine in London, one restaurant stands triumphantly on the piled corpses of its rivals. One restaurant holds aloft the touch that will set fire to your mouth, your loins and your heart. That restaurant is Curry Cottage and its has been an honour to dine here!

Food was tasty, everyone enjoyed it, only thing that let it down was that the rice ordered x3 was cold.

A lovely curry from a restaurant I regularly order from

Missing items and no apology or offer to send when I called. Shame as normally excellent, busy night maybe.

Delivered on time smashing curry friendly service just the right amount of spice A decent curry house.

Fantastic service and truly delicious food! Could have been a little more meat in the curry, but I would certainly order again! Highly recommended!

Just average food - okay, but lacking anything outstanding.

The taste was there but wow was it spicy. Nearly blew our heads off! I had a rogan josh and my mum a bhuna and both were so spicy we couldn’t eat it! Be grudge paying for it tbh. How could it be so spicy when it had the same spice rating as a korma????? Will the restaurant do anything to compensate us???

Was not happy as my order was given to me with all of them spilled into the bag.
