Absolutely awful. Awful. Raw chicken sent back. Came back out raw again. Threw up later in the night. Never go here, trust me.

I visited this hidden gem in the summer with a friend. It was one of the best meals I have ever had! I have been meaning to come back as soon as possible! I took my family on a Sunday for the buffet. Good selection of curries, rice, naan, starters and dessert. Amazing flavours, fabulous staff, I can’t recommend this place enough. One of my all time favourite restaurants. Cant wait to come back! ⭐️

Decided to give Frangipani a try based on the positive reviews here. Ordered a takeaway for delivery on a Friday evening. The food was plentiful, tasty and reasonably priced. The delivery was slightly earlier than we booked, but that wasn’t a problem. This will be our new “go to” for an Indian takeaway….

What a little gem find with amazing food! The chef is really accommodating if you want any little tweaks to your dish or extras. Lovely atmosphere with very helpful staff. Will definitely return soon! Highly recommended!

We ordered a delivery after really wanting to try the restaurant for a while. The owner delivered our order, really great service, on time and the food was delicious- We all really enjoyed our meals- and the prawns were incredible!! We can’t wait to eat in the restaurant next time! Thank you very much!

I went with my friend for my birthday meal and the food was to die for. We went around 7pm and we were the only ones there whilst a lot of takeaways were collected throughout our visit. I had a lamb coconut curry with a 2 chili rating and my spice tolerance is quite good so I personally wouldn’t have described it as spicey but I loved it so much when I left I ordered a take away of the same to take home to my boyfriend as well as some amazing onions bahjis. The dining experience was top quality and I will definitely be returning and ordering many takeaways from this place

Came here on a week night, we were the only people in the restaurant. The food was absolutely delicious and superb service. I married into a Pakistani family so I find it hard to come by a nice “authentic” curry house when I come home. This place hit the nail on the head, food was fresh, authentic and absolutely delicious. Very reasonably priced too. Can’t wait to come back.

Make sure you make the effort to find this place. Really great decor, friendly helpful staff and the food was wonderful. We enjoyed a lovely evening and definitely will return when back in the town.
The place is a hidden gem... food was amazing and the service too. Had visited a long time ago but thought I would revisit. It is a lovely place with the best food all of us were happy with the different choices.

We were mooching around Cheltenham looking for somewhere nice to eat after a concert at The Cheltenham Music Festival when we happened upon The Frangipani Spice Lounge. The amazing smells coming from inside drew us in - with some degree of enthusiasm. The rather unglamorous entrance is a complete contrast to the inside of the restaurant. It has been recently decorated to a calm and comfortable atmosphere. The music is really lovely too. There is a large varied menu with interesting bits of information about the recipes which is a nice touch. The food was absolutely delicious and the service was excellent. We were rather late eating so it was a bit quieter and Mo, the owner and chef, came out for a chat. Listening to him talking about his cooking, it was perfectly clear why the food was so exceptionally good. He cooks everything from fresh and he uses fresh ingredients. Fresh ingredients together with Mo's passion for cooking are the secret to the success of this fabulous restaurant. We were made so welcome and had a fabulous meal

Had dinner here last night. Service was friendly. However, the food wasn’t brilliant, both chicken curry dishes were ok but not very flavoursome. The popadums were fresh but the dips were very different to other curry places.
