Willesborough Cafe & Pie N Mash Shop in Ashford

After trying many of Ashford’s Indian takeaway restaurants over the last few months I can honestly say this is the best one in Ashford in my opinion I always collect my food so everyone has been judged purely on service and taste This will be my go to place for an Indian from now on 28/01/22

Great tasting food. Delivered on time. Highly recommend!!

What a great find, popped in for something and was amazed at the quality of not only the food but friendly staff also. Had the Chicken with rice chips and salad. As it states on the window fresh and homemade and it certainly was, the chicken was moist and flavoursome, salad fresh with great rice. All washed down with a nice cuppa . A great find I’ll certainly be returning to try there pie and mash. Thanks to all the staff for an unexpected Wednesday afternoon treat . Well done!

This place is a little gem tucked away in the heart of Willesborough.. The staff are always helpful and friendly. The breakfasts are amazing and so are the milkshakes according to the kids!!! I see a few people have complained about the space in the cafe and that you feel like you are on top of each other.. The Cafe has huge windows so it will be obvious if its too busy for you! Thankfully they have an outside area so if you feel too cramped you can go there.. Possibly not in the winter.. I've also seen a few moans about parking.. Welcome to Ashford and KENT!! You're lucky that the on road parking is not just one huge pothole! So overall this place has been a staple in my life for at least 10 years and I will continue to visit. If you're the moody and miserable type who can't find joy in life and likes to moan about everything. Maybe just stay at home. I'd rather be squashed in the cafe with good people than have to look at your miserable faces.

Asked a local man if there was a cafe nearby, on our way from the tunnel, recommended this one. Great place, very busy and massive breakfast selection. Staff really efficient and food was excellent. Will add this place to our sat nav favorites.

this takeaway no longer trades as willesbrough tandoori they will still take your payment and keep it leaving you out of pocket and no althernative but to pursue reimbursment thru your bank another scam ? you have been warned

Need to update your website! I ordered Indian takeaway and received confirmation, when i arrived to collect got told we are not doing Indian 😡

I ordered a prawn madras, when it arrived there was some sort of colourless liquid with a couple of prawns floating in it, no taste at all. I also had lemon rice with it which consisted of rice and chopped up pieces of lemon skin. It was inedible and the whole meal was perhaps the worst curry experience I have ever had in my lifetime. Wow that’s saying something.

Very cold food. Wrong orders. Tasteless food. The order was late then late again. Absolutely shocking. Silly me but I should have read the reviews on just eat, 90% say the same as me! Avoid!!!!

Used to always come here since the new people have taken over it’s gone down hill! Me and my partner have been up all night with food poisoning! I found a bit of what looked like a cleaning cloth in my tikka masala! Definitely won’t ever be going back!

Ordered for collection for the 10% discount when paying with cash. The meat curry and Ceylon were both Luke warm and greasy, rice clearly old and reheated in the microwave as it was hard and dry, both the Peshwari and Keena naan were burnt on the bottom. The only passable thing was the potato. They forgot my popadoms as well so I’d have been better off placing the order for delivery as the popadoms cost the same as the 10% I saved for collecting. 2 kids in the kitchen cooking clearly needed more training or supervision as I’ve just wasted 35quid of my hard earned cash for the most disappointing take away I’ve had this year.

Do not recommend. Used to be best Indian around. Tried tonight, very disappointed. Vegetable balti and Vegetable curry that came with biryani consisted of beans, onion and 3 slices of carrot! Poorly spiced little flavour. Missed sauce off of order. Tubs were not filled either. Will not be going back again.

Ordered in shop. Service was ok, didn't get told about discount for paying with cash I read it after I'd payed. Got food home it was warm, the curry was a few small pieces floating in watery well if you can call it sauce. And the chicken tikka masala was the same. Tasteless. Keema nann was like rubber. And that cost me over £26 joke😡

Very tasty, good size of meal, quick delivery

Made me very sick this morning after one of their curries. First time I have used this company, I won't be ordering one from here again

I am a huge lover of Indian food but this was just awful the not so garlic naan was so dry and crispy I could literally knock on it 😷 the mint sauce was watery and tasteless and the curry has so many pieces of coconut in it it may as well be called a coconut curry if I could rate it minus I would do NOT waste your money here they also refuse to refund you appalling food and customer service 😤😤😤😤

Ordered food at 6:30pm was told 1 hour delivery time, phoned at 8pm to ask how long our food would be, was then told on way they very busy, at 8.45 phoned + said cancel order but said couldnt have refund, food turned up just before 9 which then had to be microwaved cause cold, must admit bombay pots very nice even being cold but the rest not so nice. Only ordered from here because someone had come out of their way to deliver leaflets to South Ashford so you think why not try, wish we hadnt, would not order from here again

The food was very tasty alhamdulillah.

Very good service and friendly staff

Enjoyed my chicken madras Very good prices.

I've visited 2 weeks on the trot whilst waiting for my daughter having an appt at the clinic down the road. Last week I had a deluxe hot chocolate. This week I had a Latte and tried the apple crumble with custard. All very scrummy....

Food is exceptional, delivery is always faster than the ETA given and the service is brilliant. The first choice when we order food to work, whether its breakfast or lunch.

I have ordered from few more restaurants around this area however this is the best restaurant so far. The quality of food and service was great I will definitely recommend this restaurant.

I found this cafe on line while waiting for my car to be repaired. The food was good old fashioned full English, bacon sarnie and tea to a good standard. But the thing that really stood out for me was the welcome and the service....

Never had a tikka masala before, always have lots of other dishes, it was like eating a bowl of sugar, had I have wanted sweet I would have ordered korma, partner had Balti, he always has that but he said it was dry and tasteless! Won’t use this takeaway again

Thought I’d try willesborough Indian after years not going there since it was sold the first time. Can honestly say it made me feel sick.

advertises 5-25 mins for delivery and here we are 1hr 40 mins later and still no food. Would not recommend this establishment and I doubt they’ll ever get another order from me.

Fantastic cafe. Went for breakfast as a summer holiday treat for my children. They only wanted certain things from the breakfast menu and the waitress was so obliging at getting them not only what they wanted but suggesting splitting one of the set breakfasts to...

This place is absolutely amazing. The food is great and the service is impeccable. I definitely reccomend this to everyone out there looking for the best restaurant ever.

This was the most amazing experience ever. I had a lot of fun with family and friends. The service was spectacular. And the people were warm hearted. I absolutely recommended this place. The food is great too.

Very interesting Indian food in Ashford kent Very delicious food and very nice friendly customer service I am happy. You are all invited

Had the chicken tikka biryani and aloo gobi was absolutely delicious and delivered early

Since new owner has taken over food arrived very quickly, was lovely and hot. Very tasty, keep up the good work.

Great service, ordered for delivery and was very quick and very lovely food.

Always have had a good meal, great value for money

I’m very satisfied with the food, the delivery time. The new owner has turned this place around. Keep up the good work

Highly recommended, our food was excellent, delivered on time and hot! Try something different, well worth a try.

Thank you guys was really good 🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️ I’m in love with it

That’s is my first time I had in my life India . Wow amazing food thank you soo much guys that was really good I loved it 🥰❤️

The beast food I have ever tested good for vegan and non vegan I would highly recommend this tandoori takeaway

Haven't been for an age due to covid. Have always had an excellent breakfast here and it never dissapoints. Great service and it's always busy which goes to show how good it is. Good choices on the menu and value for money too.🙂

Amazing foods wow incredible naan bread are so good first delivery thank you guys

Worse takeaway we've had I wouldn't recommend or suggest it to anybody.

Excellent cafe, great menu. Food outstanding and at a good price. Staff always friendly and cheerful, especially the chef, he's amazing and a superb cook.

first time of trying these premises after many recommendations! and i must admit i should have gone there a long time ago! had fish and chips, massive portion of both, cooked to perfection in a nice tidy premises! Great friendly staff, clean and Covid compliant!...

Although very local, I haven't been to the caff in a few years after a previous unfortunate experience re; service; I just decided to stay away rather then make a fuss. I've intended to go back and try it again on a few occasions this...

Excellent food, good value and friendly service.

I’m half way through my lunch from here and just had to write a review this is one of the best pie and mash I have had in a long time well packed as it was a takeaway they had thought of everything including chilli...

Still not received it over 30mins late

Great food and service.. the chef was kind enough to veganise the menu for me.. thank you..

Cold food and dry chicken. Could not have done any worse

Amazing service! Unfortunately our order didn't get delivered wasnt cooked but was accepted and they kindly refunded. Thanks again

1/5 food hygiene. Yeah...don't go here till they sort it out

Best cafe in Ashford area good value for money staff friendly very chatty and look after you very well used for a number of years on a regular basis good value for money

AVOID THIS PLACE. There was a big piece of plastic in the lamb curry. Took me almost a week to get in touch with the manager Khan. And that was only because I kept on calling every day. He didn't seem very interested in what I had to say and gave me lots of excuses as to why he didn't call me back to sort this issue out. Only after I mentioned that no one had bothered to take responsibility and apologise is when he apologised (which was half hearted at best). He also didn't talk about compensation till I prompted him. After a week of grief and annoyance, I've only got money back for the curry and that's about it. Extremely disappointed and angry with this kind of customer service considering that I've been a loyal customer for many years. Although I must say that the quality of the food has declined a lot under Khan's management so I guess this was the final nail in the coffin. Certainly won't be ordering from here again!!

Hugely disappointed. Service was prompt but that's about it. The food was so disappointing. It was mainly all sauce with very little chicken of which was dry and and poor quality. Won't be ordering from here again

We had breakfast delivered from this cafe and it was absolutely excellent. Really good quality ingredients, cooked and packaged really well (baked beans separately!) and such generous portions! Will definitely order from here again

Ordered from here twice, to collect. Food isn't great, there are better options out there.

Used for the first time last night. Absolutely loved it, food arrived earlier that predicted. Will definitely use again.

Such a shame that the food wasn’t as described at all- I was hoping that it was going to be delicious, as I can’t remember the last time I ordered Indian take out. It was going to be my special treat, but I’m so disappointed

Honest feedback from my heart, check for options or Save your money. The food i received from here was awful and absolute rubbish. The food is no where near what it states it is !! Called them to update my feedback and the man was so rude and updated me with his history of work experience.. Never ever in my life time from this people..

Avoid! Ordered twice and never received any food

Eaten here twice and was on the toilet the kitchen looks out off date and a bit unhygienic

Myself and my family have been a locals to this cafe for years. Cannot fault the staff or the food. The staff have always been friendly and helpful, taking time out of there day to speak to you personally and and the food is always...

I have been to this cafe quite a few times with my wife and friends. Such a welcoming space and lovely staff. Very reasonably priced. Everything considered to meet COVID-19 safety guidelines, all staff were wearing masks. I hope this cafe lasts a very long...

Breakfast was really good. Social distancing non existent, masks not being worn when entering and leaving, staff not policing it, some staff wearing masks some not. To many tables not enough space. Cash only.

Decided to give them another chance after cold and late delivery months ago. Food delivered over an hour after the ETA. No contact from them and couldn't get through to find out where our food was. Some food was missing and they gave us a bottle of coke instead of fanta which is no good as we have very severe allergy to caffeine. Do not try.

Waited 2 1/2 hours for delivery, tried ringing multiple times but they had turned their phones off so I drove down there to see what was going on and the order was just about to be sent out. The guy said he will do me a deal next time, but no chance am I going back again!! Food was awful, watered down, bland and tasteless. Avoid at all costs!

Delivery tonight was an hour later than the projected hour delivery time. The restaurant had taken their phones of the hook so no communication could be made. After visiting the restaurant to collect the order two hours after the original order was made the food was substandard, warm , tasteless and a real disappointment. A business this badly run should not be allowed to operate. Close your doors , reevaluate your current structure and sort yourselves out!

We are regulars here. Usually when working night shifts because the food is always good. Although on my last visit I should have checked that the 10% discount for cash had been included before leaving. Which it wasn't this evening, despite being assured that it had been. As a regular I was a little disappointed and will have to consider whether to drop them from our stations list of regular take-away' in future.

Don't use them. Ordered twice from them in 2 months and both times have been messed up. Food didn't turn up. Second time I got the Wrong food, cold naan o and the food took 2 hours to get here.. I certainly won't be using them again.

We are regulars here. Great service with a smile every time. Quality produce on the breakfasts. Pukka strawberry milkshake. The bubble and squeak is utterly Devine. A cafe not to be missed.

We use this place regularly. Fantastic, efficient customer service. Lovely hot and fresh food everytime. Great value for money with free and speedy contactless delivery.

Beautiful. Perfectly cooked. Tasty and on point. I always come here. Lovely staff too. ..

Ordered from here last night, from the moment we ordered the food to delivery was spot on. Food was really hot and tasted great and didn’t take long to deliver! Will recommend to others

Ordered around 6pm. Due to be delivered around 7:30pm... currently 8:52pm and it isn’t here but had been updated to delivered. Tried ringing but user had been busy for over half an hour and they shut in an hours time... Don’t know if we’ve been charged or should expect the food.

Absolute abysmal service from start to finish. We ordered our food and had to call this company 3 times in order to find out where our order was, which eventually took 1 HOUR 45 MINUTES to arrive. Initially being told 10-15 minutes apparently the driver had “just left” 20 minutes pass still no delivery. Call back again to have an argument with the operator about where my food was and how long it is taking. Certainly will not be ordering from here again and shall be telling others about the dismal experience. SHOCKING

What incredible food. Was going to have the huge breakfast they have available but boy am I glad that I didn’t. I had the all day breakfast and that was more than enough to kick start the day. Generous portions and fairly priced. A few...

The decent sized café is clean, uncluttered and the food is reasonably priced and well advertised on the cafe's laminated menus. Staff chatty and I've been in a few times this week for an all-day breakfast and all of the meals were well-cooked, plentiful and...

Willesborough cafe & pieand mash shop does a great breakfast. The bacon, sausages and beans are all fantastic quality and the toast is pre-buttered corner to corner. The young staff are fantastic. I live up North and come here when I visit the in-lawsin Ashford.....

We checked out the reviews on here and they were good so we came here. And we weren't disappointed. The food is outstanding and plenty! We couldn't move afterwards. I'll be back again when in the area.

Mum went to the hospital for an appointment. After we were hungry and decided to drive to this establishment. When entering the place was packed, which is a sign the food is good normally. A Lovely waitress said she will find us a table in...

Apparently you don't get the 10% discount offered on their menu for collection on set meals, because they're already discounted. (Illegal) Well I'm not sure that they're discounted but they are certainly reduced in size.. the one small bag of salad with a set meal for 4! The starters were all about 1/2 the size of when we just order off the menu. The mains pretty much the same. Actually completely embarrassed that i've ordered this for friends. Worst takeaway meal for a very very long time. The attitude on the phone was a load of excuses.. they did send some extra salad round, but by then we'd finished the microscopic portions of starters, which would have barely served two well never mind four.

If you don’t mind sharing a table with other people, then the food here is really good. The staff are, on the whole, friendly and attentive.

I did go in August to have Pie and Mash at the Willesborough Cafe and was pleasently surprised it was both tasty anda good size portion. I was feeling hungry and went for the Full Double Pie and Double Mash with Liquor. I've not any...

The food was great and fantastically priced. The only issue I had was that the meal for the 3-year old that was with us, came out 10 minutes after the five adults’ breakfasts. The chefs excuse was that he needed to wait for the mash...

Amazing cuŕry service is really good There should be no complantes about it Amazing service the manager should deffenitly make a new won and upgrade it even. Better

This used to be my favorite takeaway. Sadly it has gone down hill. The orders are always late and wrong. Today I got completely the wring order 30 minutes late and they refused a full refund. Very sad

This cafe comes recommended, chatty staff and easy to read laminated menus ...and walls that are uncluttered with photos ....and clean. I ordered an all day breakfast with a coffee and it was well cooked and covered the plate and was reasonably priced.

Highly recommend this takeaway ! Really nice staff and extremely delicious food ! They have so much to choose from and very quick delivery service. Food is always piping hot too 😊x

Really good value, friendly waitresses, excellent food. Nice place for a full English breakfast, if you are really hungry there is "The chosen one" a very large breakfast. Also specialize in Pie and mash!

Honestly, I only dropped in with wife and boy for a cuppa but I had a spotted dick with custard (get over it ...). The staff were fast and efficient, the pud was excellent with awesome custard. The main thing is that the place was...

This is now my regular when on the south side of Ashford. The decor is uncluttered and clean, the staff chatty, the menus laminated, the prices competitive and my meal today, an all day breakfast was well cooked. Recommended.

Great food, good menu selection & great value for money. Would definately recommend this place although you'll need to make sure you have cash.

I went here for breakfast with my friends. It was busy inside but the service was good and the food did not take long to come either. I’d definitely recommend and return when I am next in town. Thank you!

We called in today just by chance and were pleasantly surprised. Good food served by friendly staff in clean surroundings at very reasonable prices. I personally had the full English breakfast which is not on the menu but advertised on the wall. I swapped hash...

Always delivers the best breakfast around. I had the full English, not on the menu? Don't know why? They also take 📞 orders for takeaway. Handy for work at the weekend.

Called in today for lunch with an all day breakfast each and he could not finish his due to the amount on the plate which was also well-cooked. The cafe is tidy and clean, the menus laminated and the food abundant. Recommended.

You will have your work cut out to beat this cafe. Great food at reasonable prices and cheerful staff.

All day breakfast is well worth trying.very good price,in the good weather you can site outside watch the world go by.will use again
