Brilliant service, staff and food. Couldn’t ask for any better and would highly recommend to family and friends. Arash, Soif and Naz couldn’t have made this experience any better! 10/10 from me. Thank you all from Babar Elephant.

The Babar Elephant is most definitely the best Indian/Bangladesh restaurant in the whole of Lancashire. The food is absolutely divine everything from the poppadoms to the signature dishes. The staff are most pleasant and attentive and the surrounding, well, I don't know where to start. So very beautiful. The ideal place for any occasion from a family meal to a romantic wedding. Ample parking with a private room and bar with terrace upstairs. THE place to be !!!

The place is beautiful and the staff were very friendly but what let it down was the food as it was so salty it over took from the other flavours, otherwise we would have given it more stars.

This place was an amazing building in a lovely location. Staff were very friendly and welcoming. However, the food we had was very salty, sadly. It overpowered the other spices and flavours, otherwise this would have been five stars! Nobody came to check on the meal, but we let them know.

Not really sure from where to start ? After browsing few Indian restaurants in Lancaster we decided to go Babar Elephant due to some good reviews and serving cocktails there. At arrival car park is huge and restaurant located in a nice and quiet place in between Lancaster and Morcambe. Going inside into the restaurant you will definitely get a very unpleasant smell we found it coming from their very very dirty carpets which anybody can notice with their bare eyes and nose. After seating we were given drinks and food menu but could able find any cocktails in their drinks menu despite adverting in their own website which is very misleading. However I asked to the waiter about it but they answered they don’t do.Moving on to the staters, we ordered prawn puri and mixed seafood sizzlers.Prawn Puri with small prawns on a deep fried bread covered with really red food color, not sure why they make it red? However the prawn tasted sweet and in my whole life I never tasted sweet prawn puri and it’s tasted very bad. Seafood sizzlers consisted of lots of tiny prawns, half of king prawn and the white fish they described on their menu could hardly be found through your naked eyes, you must have to get assistance with microscope to find those white fish there, a very disappointing start.For mains we ordered BANGAL HAANDI SPECIAL with okra Bhai, tarts daal and steamed rice.Bengal haandi special cooked with some raw onions with gravy and some unrealistically bad tasted rough spice mostly black pepper I guess which will burn your mouth, okra Bhaji (traditionally stir fried or deep or shallow fried) was not a bhaji dish definitely. It was kind of bhuna dish with diced okra, raw onions and gravy a very unauthentic dish poorly tasted.Only edible things was tarka daal and white rice.Thanks Babar Elephant to provide us such a great evening.

Best place in Lancaster with friendliest staff. My mother had a fall so I instead picked up a takeaway. They insisted on giving me a free bottle of wine for her. Classy move and put a smile on her face during a difficult time.

There’s now doubt that this indian restaurant is one of the finest all round experiences in the British Isles. The service, attention to detail and indian cuisine are exquisite.
