The Park Gate Inn in Bromsgrove

8 of us booked here, Social etiquette observed by staff at all times. Quick and friendly service, drinks flowed and an excellent meal was had by all. Great to be back out after lockdown.

Went today with my friend and six month old son. Lovely greeting on arrival. Gave us a table with plenty of space for the pushchair. Super friendly staff. Totally covid confident. Drinks and meals served quickly. Totally faultless. Staff were excellent. We will go back!

fabulous pub who meet our needs following lockdown. we needed a venue for a wake. they have a fab system for purchasing your drinks and this with maintaining social distancing. inside and outside seating again maintained social distancing. outside area is big and undercover as well as a big garden for sunny days. we can vouch for the under cover area as waterproof as it was tipping down. we also had food which again the owners Chris and Dawn were fab and meet our needs at a very reasonable price. the food was excellent and there was plenty off it which was good as most of the group were bikers.if you are looking for a venue which is safe regarding covid-19 with good owners, staff, reasonable prices drinks and good food this is your pub.and it also has a big car park.our vist was on the 7th July 2020

We had my dad's wake following his funeral this week. Fantastic, polite, social distancing guidelines in place. Accommodated us all. Rain didn't cause a problem, due to gazebo area. Fantastic food We'll organised. Definitely reckom

I popped into the Park Gate Sunday 5th July, the first time since lockdown. I was dubious about visiting any pub and chose the Park gate to support Chris and Dawn (the owners) I knew they would have taken every precaution to ensure their customers health safety was put first. On arrival it was clear that every measure been taken to adhere to the governments guidance for to pub to be able to reopen. I felt extremely comfortable, everybody was mindful and respectful of keeping to the social distancing rules. The signage, space and layout of the pub had been thought out to ensure everybody had enough room and could relax and enjoy their visit.

We had not been to the Park Gate for many years and to be honest we wont be going again. We were out walking and stopped for a pint and a snack.I asked for a snack and was told we don't do food despite this line in their website"Our cozy bar is perfect for a quiet pint and a cheese and onion cob by the fire" and there was only one beer available on the day. The place was also a mess inside and out and to be honest we were glad to leave."enjoy a drink and a freshly made cob after walking up a thirst!" (from their website again) plainly this did not happen and never willWhat a joke!

We held our big joint 30th and 60th Birthday Party here 14th Sept 2019The staff and managment were fantastic so helpfull nothing was too much trouble they helped us with every detail . DJ and Kareoke disco.( Jamie Dynamo Grady) was brillliant really made the party go with swing.We dressed the lounge and marquee area with A LAS VAGAS CASINO THEMEit was simply fantastic all the guests had an amazing time,Thank you the PARK GATE . DEFFINATLY 100% RECOMMEND

Only reason it's not 5 star is because it's a standard menu but for the price and the quality and service it is excellent and would highly recommend 😃

Ok firstly let me put it out there that the pub itself is in a great location and we enjoyed most of our night.Had my sister in laws 40th birthday party here as we loved the location and knew there was a nice safe garden/play area for the kids. After an hour of being outside we had 2 of the kids come in with dog mess down their smart clothes (obviously for the occasion) felt very disappointed in this that if the staff knew there was to be a function this surely should of been taken care of....of course now we are in the month of June (summer) so we didn’t expect the garden to have the grass so long that it was halfway up your legs. Anyway we got on with the night only to come to 11pm just when the night was getting in full swing to be told by the only barman that the music had to be shut off (11pm on a Saturday night !!) the worst part about this was the fact that when we agreed to hire the room we were told by the landlady that they were going to get an extension so that this wouldn’t be a problem. Safe to say it wasn’t the case and it ruined the evening.....overall could be a beautiful pub with a bit more time, care & effort put in....Seems like the place would benefit from a massive overhaul as it has so so much potential

Great pub, we highly recommend The Park Gate Inn, it does NOT serve food so think some people must be reviewing another pub!!! HOWEVER we LOVE the fact you can order food in or bring a picnic. We have had multiple events here aswell as attended events here for others and I can say 100% this pub is a little hidden gem!!

Absolutely brilliant barmaid and staff!! Had our 5 and 6 year olds party there!! Super location and sooooo many people commented on value for money and party xx

We only stopped here for drinks so cannot comment on the food. From the outside it did not look that inviting but once inside you realise this is an excellent pub serving a very good range of real ales with knowledge and passion. The dog was welcome in the bar after a rather muddy walk and we had good beers and snacks before continuing our walk. Pubs like this need to be praised fro what they do best.

Nice spacious pub with good beer and lovely garden with countryside views. A cat on the premises is always a huge plus for me! Must pop in again for a pint

Friends use this pub most weeks. On this occasion a farewell to my youngest daughter who is off to Canada.The welcome was warm and an area had been set aside for 10 of us in the bar - complete with cutlery and crockery.Great selection of beers. Food was obtained from nearby The New Chennai - a 15% discount and brilliant food indeed. No washing up for us!A most welcoming and convivial pub. Friendly locals. Thank you Dawn and Team

Decided to stop here for dinner big mistake the place had 2 other diners in there and they complained about their food should of left then, but at this point I didn't want to cook and we were starving so took a chance starters were hot a nice disastrous mains my husband's steak was burnt overcooked and looked like it had been left under the grill it was so bad my husband said it was like eating rubber and after attempting 2 mouth fulls left it , I had chicken with what I can only describe as congealed mushroom soup on top the chicken was so dry I left most of it, the chicken tikka was dry as well and the nan bread had been removed from the packet and placed on the plate without heating ( its boil in the bag you can't go wrong )

Siempre me pareció Marston's '2 por 1' pubs puede ser un poco irregular en ocasiones.

Primero de todo que es un pub perfectamente aceptable con magníficas vistas de un paisaje precioso. He visitado este lugar en muchos defendiera. El restaurante Carvery Roast", India o simplemente como un pub. Todo perfectamente aceptable. Este es el problema. Nunca se sabe, a partir de una semana a la siguiente, qué tipo de pub esta será. Es identidad ha cambiado tan a menudo, en un corto periodo de tiempo, es difícil de mantener. Mi consejo es ir allí por las vistas y una bebida. No esperes nada más y no te decepcionará.

This real ale pub offers great FREE entertainment. I go to Kareoke each fortnight running next on 31st January. Open Mike and other events are on regular. Beer is good and service great.

Excelente servicio - muy buena comida, ambiente muy agradable, limpio y bien cuidado, sin duda, volveremos.

Esta es una cerveza muy buen pub. Si quieres comida son felices a la orden de llevar y comer en el pub.

Nos encanta el ambiente de este pub. Los propietarios son muy relajado, simpático y servicial. A mi marido le encanta la gran variedad de cervezas. Es incluso mejor cuando algunos de los habitantes de reunirse en una sesión de frecuencias de folk.

Okay, my hand was forced. My local is closed for a refit. So I walked to the park gate (2.6 miles) and I liked it. Quite simply, it's an ale drinkers dream. 10 pumps with 7 beers available... on a Tuesday! I only had time to have two but they were well kept and tasted as expected. The added bonus was that the ales were not mainstream brews but on the whole independent breweries. I will visit again soon but turn the Muzak down a bit please.

had a nice lunchtime meal not too busy, food was good, and so was the red house wine, good pleasant atmosphere, with good service

Mum booked a 21st birthday party and it was perfect.No long queues for the bar, we were all seen to straight away with friendly and helpful staff.Dawn set up food in the 2nd bar, the spread was lovely.Nice clean environment where animals and children are welcomeLoads of space outside with a marquee and plenty of seating

Just wanted to say a massive thank you to Chris and Dawn for having this weekend. The room was an excellent price to hire and was the perfect place to have our engagement party. It was great that we could sort our own food (they do not serve hot food themselves as some of the other reviews say!) and bring stuff with us, the bouncy castle was a huge hit! The whole night turned out just as we had hoped it would! Definitely would recommend for anyone looking for a party/celebration in an informal/cool venue! Thanks so much for a brilliant night, we'll definitely be seeing you again! Joss&Ben :)

Contrary to glowing reviews. No food is served.You can phone the local take away and have it delivered to them.

Kids love the outdoor area and we frequently like to visit for food and some fun. The Pub is on the outskirts of Kidderminster and is perhaps one of kidderminster best secrets and so family friendly

We had a lovely meal with the family it was so nice. Definetly go again. Good service and friendly faces. Family friendly .

Didn't book popped in on off chance as had been a while , place was very busy as sat night but staff found us a table after about half hour .Service slightly slow as busy staff were buzzing around serving and clearing non stop , food was great my steak didn't need a steak knife and wife's pork was just what she wanted . Topped off with fed and happy kids that been playing out .Missed 5 just for slightly slow service sorry .

Can get very busy, so pre-book. Good solid menus suitable for the family and the quality of the food is consistent. Reasonable value for middle of the road cuisine.

friends arranged a meeting here and I thought oh no a Marstons pub so wasn't looking forward to it, have to say this is the best Marstons I have ever been to extremely clean and the staff were excellent. It was very busy and we were told there could be a 45 minute wait but food came sooner than that, it was really good value for what we paid, will definitely be visiting again. The desserts looked delicious and were huge portions but I was too full from my main course to have one unfortunately.

Gorgeous pub with friendly team. Nothing was too much trouble. We were all made to feel very welcome. Will definitely go again and again

First visit two weeks ago and was very surprised at how much I enjoyed the food especially the chocolate crownie dessert

After moving in just up the road from this bar/restaurant all I can say is it's the local bar I wished I always had round the corner! Get staff, prices and service - plus I love the feeling as if I'm one of the true locals of a country bar

Having picked up a copy of the Worcestershire CAMRA publication in Feckenham we read that the Park Gate Inn was now fully 'back up and running' as a pub / restaurant so decided to take a walk up to check the place out. Within minutes of being in there we felt like 'regulars', great welcome and hospitality from both staff and customers and a great array of very well kept Real Ales to suit every palate.We revisited the following Friday evening and the welcome was equally as good and some very good live entertainment.Haven't eaten here yet but the Sunday Roasts served look very good and reasonably priced. A great alternative to going 'into town'.

If you want a break from the hotel scenario and home cooked food its excellent may look rough s you walk in but the staff are very friendly and if you like traditional food its all good, I would defiantly return

Hard to give this pub/restaurant a good or bad review S visited here with a group of friends and pre-ordered from their set Christmas menu and after one persons food not being cooked as it was forgotten, then when it was cooked (the rest of us were now eating our meals, 2 of which were sent back as they were not hot enough) then the meal came out again, this time it was undercooked and raw, sent back again, still not right - a different meal was chosen from the menu and came out cold in the middle, obviously from being frozen! Gave up in the end. No serving spoons in the vegetable dishes, so much to my personal horror people were putting their vegetables on their plates using their eating forks. Tables not laid with appropriate utensils for 3 course meal - very disappointing! On a positive note the bar area was good, and the duo playing live were fantastic so we enjoyed the rest of the evening.

More well kept real ales than you can shake a stick at. Fabulous ground for the kids to run off and play in, live music, summer festivals, friendly locals with brilliant staff & gaffers! Go there! Go there now!

The park gate opened as a real ale pub late may. Great atmosphere, great range of ales, and live music every friday. Definately worth a visit and would recommend it. Also mow serving food.

Great Indian restaurant. Nice seating areas. Good menu with a good choice of food. We went on a Sunday evening, quite early on and the place was virtually empty so we has our pick of seats and sat by the window. The staff were helpful and accommodating and the food was absolutely brilliant. It's not cheap but worth it.

We sat in the cold non-atmospheric restaurant waiting for hours for a very average meal, served by a very rude arrogant little man whom I believe to be the owner. I thought I'd try a dessert to cheer me up and make it a little bit worth while us going there. Desserts were truly awful, I don't know what warehouse they got them from.My recommendations go anywhere but there.

We ahve been to the Agrafort when it has been excellent, and we have been extremely poor, so what's the average? At the last visit, we waited 2 hours form the starter to the main course, yes 2 HOURS!!!!!!!!! As it was a family meal and everyone wanted to be pleasant and no one wanted to be negative, we waited patiently. Only afterwards were we offered a free round of drinks to compensate for the apallign service, but they knew we had transport booked at 11pm, and the offer only came at 2 minutes too, I think therefore it was a fairly hollow offer. We used to go regularly, but now, I honestly don't think we will.

After seeing the excellent reviews on TA, I was disappointed overall. The restaurant itself is lacking any atmosphere and was cold and stark. I didn't have a starter but one of my friends had onion bhajis and because the portion was large, I tried one. Very nice - crisp, light and flavoursome.I had a medium chicken balti for my main. It lacked flavour and wasn't hot (temperature-wise). My companions enjoyed their meals however, so not all bad, but with so much choice in the area, I wouldn't return.

Visited with brother and his wife whilst on family business.The location is isolated but the interior good with a nice real fire burning to take the chill off the room, along with several other portable gas fires. The food was very good, well presented and tasty. Both vegetarian and meat dishes were of a good quality.The staff were very friendly and overly attentive as they hovered in the background waiting for you to finish a dish to allow them to take it away.

We are working our way through the local bromsgrove 'curry houses' . Plus we like Indian food and this offers that . Our first time here . This is a bit more. It wasn't cold , they have listened to what has been said and that has been sorted . The food was excellent just what we wanted . It may seem the portions look small but compared to your bog standard place ten pints and a curry perhaps it might . But for once nothing wasted . if you like to taste your food this was just right . Mains great , accompaniments , nan and rice great . Overall price totally rest able with wine and beer . Service great but you would expect that . We would come back here .quite a few in bromsgrove we wouldn't ! I don't review the bad ...free parking , in the dark just look for the turning !

I adore the food at Agra Fort, easily the best in the local area.The service is great and can't fault anything apart from the fact my partner and I had to sit eating our food with coats draped over our legs because we were chilled to the bone, huddled around inadequate gas heaters! Sort out the heating, please and we'll return when weather is warmer.

I came with a large party just before Christmas. The staff were friendly and courteous. We didn't have to pre-order, and had the full menu to order from when we arrived. It was impressive that no one had to wait for food. Both courses arrived and were served promptly and efficiently. Food was well presented and piping hot. A very good meal, enjoyed by everyone there.

Wow, what can I say, one of the best meals I've ever had, this place is amazing! Food is very well presented and extremely tasty, staff are friendly and the atmosphere was very good, shall definitely be returning.

Came here last Sunday evening (booked a table to be sure, but it wasn't full) and we were taken directly to our table. Service was good, we never seemed to be waiting unduly, and the waiter was very patient with us! The food was very good and we all enjoyed our meal. Drinks, starter and main averaged out at £25 each which, considering the quality and quantity of the servings was most reasonable. I have been before and will go again.

Had a Groupon voucher for Agra fort and having been here previously the food was good so decided to go again!We waited an hour 15 minutes to get our starters of onion bajis and didn't end up eating until 8.45, we arrived at 6.35. The waiters weren't very apologetic and just said there was a wait which is understandable but we saw people who came in after us get served before! Felt a bit like we were receiving the 'groupon voucher' treatment!The food was good, just a shame about the service!

Really good food. I would recommend this as it one if the best curries I have had. Jalfrezi was great, service wasn't rushed and the portions were really good.

We received some Groupon Vouchers as a birthday present to dine at the Agra Fort. It is a little way out of Bromsgrove on the Kidderminster Road so you need a duty driver. The only problem with the food was that my wife asked for the prawns to have their shell removed, and they came with shell on. She decided to persevere despte the fact that the waiter offerred to remove them. The prawns were delicious, as were the starters, mains and desserts. We were made very welcome and the service was attentive without being overbearing. On a cold winter's night the heating was via an open fire and some portable gas heaters. There were seats near the door which were in a draft, so all in all we found the temperature distinctly chilly. The bill was presented correctly with all "gift" items correctly accounted for. There is also a large function area so they can cater for Christmas Parties and the like. All in all, would go there again.

We decided to treat ourselves and had a wonderful meal, service excellent. Made our day really special. Nothing was too much trouble. Thanks

Encouraged by other reviews & personal recommendations, we went on my wifes birthday. There was nothing wrong with anythingl the food was ok, the place was ok if a little lacking in atmosphere, the prices were ok about average, the service was good. What was a bit wearing was that while we were eating each course we were asked if our meal was alright several times - a bit irritating. I know everyone has different tastes but in our opinion the food at Little India in Astwood Bank is better

We went to Agra Fort for an evening out with friends we had a very pleasant evening with good food, company and wine. We were treated with excellent customer service and food and atmosphere.

great location for a midweek catchup with friends. Food excellent and well presented. Staff friendly and efficient. Very professional establishment.

We had a fantastic evening here celebrating two birthdays. Food was great. Service was great. Free collection and drop off was a bonus. The staff really went out of their way to look after us. Thank you.

Spur of the moment meal out, looked at curry restaurants near me fell upon the Agrafort. The restaurant is a converted public house on the outskirts of Bromsgrove, the decor is very nice as you enter the mix of spices greet you as well as the smell of a open fire. We opted for three starters onion barg, chicken packs and the crab, all of which were served piping hot and on a central serving plate which was a nice touch. I couldn't make my mind up for the main either naga chicken or jalfrezi, the waiter suggested half and half so best of both worlds I wasn't disappointed, both were fantastic, my wife and son shared a tikka karihai which again was fantastic. The nan bread was one of best I've had you could tell it was freshly made straight out the oven. This was the first visit it certainly won't be the last... Well worth a visit

Have been meaning to try this restaurant for ages, now I wish we had not waited so long. The food was superb. We were warmly welcomed, despite our booking not being recorded! The tables are spaced so that you do not feel as though you are sharing the conversation of strangers. So nice to find somewhere that does not cram in as many people as possible. Staff were friendly and helpful. They were happy to explain the menu and we were assured that if we ordered something and did not like it, we could send it back and have a replacement dish. There was plenty of choice on the menu, traditional dishes and house specialities. The peppered crab starter was delicious, in fact both starters and main courses were faultless. I would not hesitate to recommend this restaurant to anyone, we will certainly be returning very soon.

We can honestly say we are never let down whenever we visit. Always a friendly welcome and made to feel special. If you fancy something different they are very good to recommend or make up something special dependant on your taste. The quality of the ingredients is of the highest standard and exceptionally prepared.Would not consider having another Indian anywhere else in Bromsgrove but here, even going to the Balti Triangle we always compare back to Agrafort and wish we hadn't bothered.The Agrafort is a must for Curry lovers you will not be disappointed..

Excellent food excellent people!! Ate here as we were staying local for a wedding and looked up a local restaurant. We were not disappointed, food was amazing best Indian I have had ! the staff were wonderful made us feel welcome even took us home after we enquired about a taxi. Only downside we live 80 miles away. Go you will not be disappointed

Delicious indeed! Used a Groupon voucher and the experience was beyond expectation. The food was divine, service excellent and surroundings pleasant. Just the one negative - the room was a little chilly. Hope to return in the future.

Went here with a groupon voucher. Excellent food and good service. Bombay naga lamb a real highlight and great onion bhajis. Looking forward to returning when they roll out their 20% off on a Sunday to Thursday deal.

We had a midweek treat with friends here,and wow how good was it - well excellent to be fair.We had the usual dips and roasted popodoms,all very nice.We shared a selection of starters of,onion bhajees,lamb tikka,chicken in peppers and an absolutely fabulous fish in a garlic sauce.All were extremely tasty,beautifully presented.We also shared mains - king prawns,a spicy chicken curry,beef rogan josh and fish in a light but tasty sauce.The spicy rice and garlic rice were fantastic along with a peshwari naan and a coriander naan.All washed down with a few Cobras.Service was excellent and informative.Any tweak to a dish is easily accommodated.I don't know why we haven't tried this place before,but rest assured,we will be doing so again.Highly recommended.

Good value meal, lamb tikka we all found a bit on the chewy side, but everything else was really goodWould definitely go again

Visited for the first time after having driven past for years but never stopped for a meal. We have certainly missed out on some delicious Indian food. From the moment we arrived we were made to feed welcome and the prompt service continued. Large choice on the menu with plenty of "specials"All of the food was of a high standard and the portions very generous compared to other Indians we have been to as one rice would have been plenty for two people.Will definitely be visiting again.

Tried veg options which were very tasty. Veg shashalik was exceptional.Service was ok. Will try new options next time. Highly recommended.

As soon as me and my wife walked threw the door we were give a warm welcome. Both starter to main were beautiful and delivered promptly A wonderful experience from start to finish.The service was outstanding and the staff generally interested in there service given. Me and my wife both had an exceptional night and then the staff offered to drop us home ( a wonderful touch ) We will be defiantly be going again very soon, We would without doubt recommend the Agrafort to anybody thinking of attending for an excellent meal and friendly atmosphere.

A wonderful experience from start to finish! Great staff, delicious food. The service was exceptional with staff going beyond the extra mile to ensure we were totally satisfied. Dilly was a top top man as were all the staff. Hope to return soon:)

Been there on Group on Voucher. However glad to opt this restaurant. Excellent food and Service. Ordered different type of starter, mains. All were excellent with different taste.

One of the best meals we have had for a long time,Great service and very friendly , we was staying at holiday inn , and they kindly Gave us a lift back and told us next time will pick us up.Next time we are staying we will be backThank you

Belated birthday celebrations with friends. We all had different starters, main meals and everyone of us gave compliments to the manager. Service was great allowing us to try different wines before ordering.Definitely a revisit very very soon!!!!!!!

Came here on a groupon voucher on a Wednesday night which was quiet. Plenty of choice from the menu. Tried a few things I haven't had before and all was very tasty. Waiting staff very attentive. Will definitely be back.

Just back from agra fort. First visit for us and did it on a groupon deal but will definitely go back there. Food was fresh, hot and delicious and the customer service was excellent. We were the first customers there at 5.30 but it quickly filled up with customers a lot who seemed like they were regular visitors too. Highly recommend.

Went on a Groupon voucher early on a saturday evening. The staff were very welcoming and very friendly. Starters and main courses were both excellent. They have a few main courses that I haven't come across before so I tried one and wasn't disappointed. I'd thoroughly recommend this restaurant to Indian cuisine lovers.

Nice food, attentive staff, excellent value (albeit due to groupon deal ) would def recommend for a nice meal out.

The food in this restaurant is fantastic, as are the staff. If you want a little less heat, or a different flavour enhanced, just ask. All the food is freshly cooked and they will try their best to provide you with exactly what you want. It is without doubt the best Indian restaurant for miles.

Went on a Groupon deal on Sunday evening. The restaraunt is a little hidden off the main road and not many people were eating. We were given a table by the window with nice views over the fields. We had a 2 course meals and everything was cooked to perfection and the service was friendly and efficient. Would reccomend.

I've been visiting Agra Fort since it opened. Despite living a two minute walk from Bromsgrove High Street (And all the Indian restaurants I have to choose from there) I walk the 4.6 mile round trip to Agra Fort every now and again for one reason - it's the best Indian food I can find. I would go more often were it not for the fact it's licensed - I will get through a bottle of wine during my meal and this adds roughly £15-£17 to the total. That is one of only two things I don't love about the place, the other being that the mint sauce /raita is a tiny bit watery but I'm really nitpicking now. As for service, it is truly exceptional - they even remember my name. On my last visit the wine wasn't quite chilled enough for me - no problem, a small glass was poured and the bottle was then put in the freezer for a while. Twenty minutes later it came back, perfect temperature. Small things I know but it's the thought, and the willingness to do it that is the difference.To top it all, on my last visit (Saturday 16th August), I was given a lift back to Bromsgrove - not because a delivery was going that way, just because they value my custom. Beat that! Go to Agra Fort - I'd hate to see it change hands or close down.

We had a great meal here on 22nd Aug. It was a relaxed atmosphere with the pace of the food being served was just right! Not too slow and not a rush to get you out and the next customer in!The food was lovely and the variety to chose from was pretty wide. It was just so relaxing to have an evening meal watching the combined harvester harvesting the neighbouring field!

We visit agrafort weekly without fail, the food is consistently delicious and the service exceptional. If you like 'em hot, go for the Bengal Naga.... Really really good! Also, best chicken pakoras ever!!

We visited Agrafort on August 18th, using a groupon that I had actually bought by accident. Well I'm so glad I did, what a superb find, as we had no idea this restaurant existed. On arrival the waiter was friendly and helpful. Some of our party doesn't eat Indian very often so the waiter advised us on some great dishes to meet our tastes. The food arrived, and it was presented so wonderfully, and was a great cooking hot temperature. This food is clearly made from scratch, and the flavours are immensely good. I've eaten alot of Indian dishes in my time, but none have ever tasted as good as they did at this place. Not one of us left a scrap of food on our plate. I'm so glad we found this gem, and will definitely be visiting again. Thank you!!

My wife and I have been to some of the best (and worst) Indian restaurants in London and were very impressed with this place. The food was very good as was the service. Most impressive though was Ali who takes a lot of pride in his family's business. He came across as very entrepreneurial whilst he spent time talking to us about their business. He spent time with all the tables and this showed his commitment to customer satisfaction. One thing to note is that they will pick up and drop off any customer within Bromsgrove including guests at the nearby Holiday Inn. Just one of his ideas to keep customers happy. Ali - Well done to you and your team, we will visit again.

We have visited this restaurant before and decided to go again tonight.The food was glorious and our friendly waiter was very helpful with our special dietary needs.This is how Indian food should be...quality ingredients with balanced flavours...not a hint of pre prepared sauces.the prices are excellent and the bar is well stocked.our waiters were especially friendly and we look forward to going again.well worth the short drive !

Went to Agra Fort for the first time on Saturday 9th August 2014 on a Groupon. As someone who has eaten at the first balti restaurant in Birmingham - The Paris restaurant opened in the 1950's - sadly closed now, I would not say I am an expert, but I know what I like. For over 15yrs I have tried various Indian restaurants seeking a tinge of authenticity but sadly failing until we found the Agra Fort. None of that standard sauce based slop you get these days, but a freshly cooked curry especially made for you. I started with a sheekh kebab the flavours of which I have not tasted for years. Then the Bombay Style Naga although Madras / Vindaloo heat, full of taste and no Ghandi's revenge the next day either - well you know what I mean!I cannot fault the restaurant - friendly staff, welcoming atmosphere, very reasonable prices and a gem of authenticity.Thanks for a lovely experience - will be back soon!

The friendly faces that greeted us on arrival were so accommodating that they arranged a private table outside on the decking where we could have drinks and enjoy the good weather. The drinks were bought to us outside and we ordered our food there too and it was made clear that we could come in at our leisure and begin our meal. Starters and main meal were bursting with flavour and were an exact match for the description on the menu, not always the case in other restaurants. Service was excellent throughout - attentive but didn't linger too long so as to interrupt our rare meal alone together without kids! We recommend you try it soon if you've not been already!

Went on a groupon deal and must say the food was excellent. Service was great, and lovely location. Definitely go back. Couldn't comment on the atmosphere as there was only us, one other couple and a table of very raucous women, one with the most annoying cackle ever, which although not the restaurant's fault did somewhat taint what would have been a very pleasant evening. First class otherwise.

Moved to bromsgrove about 6 months ago and as I love my indian curries been looming for a very good indian restaurant where I could call my local. After contemplating much decided to give agrafort a go and boy was I impressed. This restaurant is a bit hidden off the main road but once you find it and step into the place,along with the scenery you just think wow. Ample space to move around in and modern decor.Once seated we were greeted accordingly and the waiters were very helpful when orderingThe food was brilliant but what I liked the most is everything is made to order,you can taste the freshness in each bite.All in all the experience was brilliant and I would highly recommend this place as it ticks all the boxes of what a modern indian restaurant should be.Keep up the good work and food agrafort

This was our first time and it did not disappoint. Our shared starter of prawn puree, lightly marinated white fish and salmon tikka was succulent and delicious, followed by mains of Karahi Chicken and a beef and chicken combination dish which were imaginatively spiced.Service was immaculate and all staff were very friendly.Outside, there were views of rolling countryside. The manager even gave us a lift home afterwards!

Loved the Interior, table settings looked inviting as did the views .Menu was very extensive ., Starter , I chose stuffed pepper and was not disapointed.My main meal was Lamb chop Tarkari, Superb, with Spicy Rice which was a meal in itself .Service all staff very efficient and friendly . Will be eating here again .

had a great meal,four of us had starters , main , and rice,with a Groupon voucher,what good value,and the food was spot on,highly recommend.

Such a shame. Everything started well, a quiet Monday night and only a few other diners inside the restaurant. We were seated immediately and orders taken, the restaurant is an old pub which still has a fair bit of space unused and the views over the fields are lovely. Tables, cutlery and everything else inside was great.I tend to get a bit annoyed with only 'Cobra' on offer for an Indian beer - and that's all they had so we had 2 bottles each during the course of our meal.The food was really nice - a good choice of fish, traditional dishes and some chefs specials that sounded lovely. Everything was 'fusion' style and we were politely asked if we were ready for the next course. As the restaurant emptied there were just ourselves and another couple left who had only recently ordered. Our mains were taken away, the hot towel thing done and that was it - we were left alone then as we had finished our drinks and contemplated dessert but no one came!. The staff all disappeared as the restaurant got quieter and in the end we had to accost the one member of serving staff for the bill.Is there a desert menu? I couldn't tell you!?!. The bill was issued and we both thought it was a good £10 more than what it would be in a similar restaurant. Mains are well priced so it must've been on the drinks or sides where the extra is.I would've kept it as a 'very good' review despite the bill but the lack of service in the end and being ignored just knocked it down again. It was 'Average' and with such choice of restaurants around in the local towns I'm not compelled to go again.

Have past this place for months and at long last we popped in, and now wish we had done it before. I had a prawn purée which was served up with the twist of looking like top star food and not just the normal Indian food expected. I ordered garlic chilli chicken a favourite of mine. I was not disappointed, the flavour was just perfect, with plenty of well cooked garlic and chilli. It's so nice to enjoy this dish and finish without being left with a burning mouth because the chilli has not been cooked out. This chef not only cooks the food well but understands how to deliver great enjoyable flavour. My husband had a Tava chicken starter which we have not seen on a menu before and it was very good, he then had a prawn batli, which was excellent. The service was excellent and we will be going back again.

I have had a fair few Indians in my time and this is hands down the BEST Indian I have ever eaten. The flavours were absolutely outstanding and out tastebuds were left tingling! The service was impeccable and couldn't have done more for you. Cannot recommend it enough!

Great place to eat.; Good food cooked really well. Very pleasant surroundings. We have visited this restaurant 2 or 3 time and have always had a great meal with good service. They have a brilliant new service including takeaway and even taxi service if required.Try it out for yourselves you won't regret it!!

i first time I've been and wont be the last very nice food great sevice friendly thanx for a great night out

Stay at the Holiday Inn just along the road often and always eat here... Reception calls the restaurant and the guys will come and pick you up and take you back after your meal, great service. The food is excellent and lots of choice, reasonably priced as well. Service levels are excellent... Always welcoming and always pay attention to detail. Cannot fault this restaurant and highly recommend..!

The second time I have eaten here and won't be the last. Really good food and some more unusual choices. Especially liked the seafood starter platter. In a country location with lovely views.

I visit Agra Fort several times a year when I am visiting friends and family in Bromsgrove and we always have a great time. The staff are friendly and cannot do enough for us when we arrive. The restaurant has a separate bar area which is fantastic as the boys and I can spend a couple of hours in there catching up and enjoying a beer before sitting down to eat in the restaurant area. We are never rushed to our table and the staff will even offer to drop us home to our houses at the end of the night. You can't say fairer than that can you? The food is lovely too, offering plenty of dishes that you won't see on a 'standard Indian restaurant' menu. Last night I chose grilled monkfish to kick things off, followed by Sharegama (strips of chicken tikka with sliced mushrooms, garlic and green chillies) with sag aloo and a paratha. It was superb. Thanks to all the staff. See you next time I am up from Cardiff !!!!

Having not been here for a couple of years due to not being in the area - have to say this as good as remembered - from the kind and friendly staff to the excellent menu - definately as good as anywhere locally. Really enjoyed it and for the family who not used to curries the advise was absolutely spot on - pricing very good and definately great restaurant - will be back soon
