Collected takeaway order for family 30 mins after ordering tonight. Tasted delicious: chicken tikka main, dhansak & bhuna with rices and veg side dishes. Meals thankfully not overloaded with ghee or salt, unlike others I’ve tried. Nicely presented with fresh herbs on top. I’ve been to TC almost 30 yrs & continued visiting now moved to Triad/Southmill area. Staff friendly & remember me each time I visit. Highly recommend you support this local Stortford restaurant

This business/ restaurant has moved from Northgate End in Bishops Stortford. It is now in the Millers business center off Southmill Road Bishops Stortford. I think they could do with a bit of a a boost with people being informed that they have moved rather than closed. Their new premises is pleasant inside. The food was excellent. We had a selection of dishes which were all nicely spiced and very tasty. We enjoyed our meal in an environment where you could enjoy a meal & hold a conversation. Definitely needs a boost back on the map. Definitely worth a visit if you enjoy a classic Curry House with good food & friendly staff. Will definitely be paying several return visits.

Just had a fantastic buffet meal to end the weekend at Tandoori Cottage - Bishops Stortford. Food was superb and great value for money. Really think this place is underestimated

Popped into Tandoori cottage for a curry with my wife and wished he had gone elsewhere. Two waiters appeared to be on service duty but spent most of their time hiding in the kitchen rather than tending to customers. Proved difficult gaining their attention to place food and drinks orders - and when we eventually ordered our main meals, we had to wait over an hour and a half for these to arrive. I ordered the murgi ragasthani from the specials section which was described as a medium hot breast of chicken off the bone garnished with oriental herbs, ginger, garlic and chillies. It actually had very little heat (spice) and the only garnish I could taste was the salt that completely overpowered everything else. There was no apology or acceptance of the poor service when we asked for the bill - and even that was a saga as the waiter took multiple attempts to take the card payment. As we left there was a table of 8 people next to us who were complaining about not receiving their meals despite having placed their orders over 90 mins earlier. Hard to see us returning to TC in light of tonight’s experience.

Been using this restaurant for well over 10 years for eat-in and takeaways- it’s always been excellent. Took my parents as they always look forward to going here when they visit. What a disappointment, the waiter an older gentleman was really grumpy as though he really didn’t want to be looking after us and we were the only people in the restaurant for the first hour as we had decided to eat early. Asked for some lime pickle and he said they didn’t have any, thinking it strange I asked another younger guy who was friendly and he went and got some immediately. The food wasn’t great and we all left disappointed with our visit. I think possibly the restaurant has changed hands as it use to be so friendly. Unfortunately the service from some staff and quality of food was not great-we will not be returning.
