“ Amazing food, best I've had! Nice to have some different dishes as well. Staff very friendly and attentive, would highly recommend! ”
“ brilliant restaurant with tasty food ! We took our little girls and were made to feel so welcome. The ice-cream at the end was an added bonus - thank you! We Will be back! ”
“ Great food and menu inspired me to get out of my normal starter and either Madras or Dansak maon course rut and so I tried something different from their speciality menu tonight. It wasn't as hot as a my normal Madras but the intensity was more in the flavour than the heat. I'm not into Onion Bhajis myself, too many greasy ones in the past, but I had a taste of my Wife's and it was really really good. Portions sizes were perfect as was the service. A great choice of many cuisines in Newbury and glad to say Indigo Bay is one of the best when it comes to Indian style food with value. The Decor is simple and not over chintzy, some may find it too plain but who cares when the food and service are great. Enjoy! ”
“ My wife and children are very fond of the food of Indigo Bay. Meal of last night was super tasty. It's great deal with a great price, Banquet Night ( Wednesday). Every item was extremely delicious. We purely enjoyed. We are really impressed with excellent customer service of the staff and genuinely satisfied with tasty food. Well done Indigo Bay, particularly, the Chef and the great team! ”
“ Really lovely evening dinner! My hubs and my first visit. We popped in on the spur of the moment whilst we were waiting for our kids who were at a local club. The staff were so warm and welcoming when we arrived. We got served really quickly and the papadum starters with sauces were out in a couple of minutes. The mango chutney was delicious! For mains we had a tandoori lamb tikka (lamb with a really tasty rub cooked over charcoal), chicken curry, rice and naan bread. The lamb had such a lovely depth of flavour and was really tender and came with perfectly caramelised onions. The chicken curry sauce was moreish and perfect for naan dipping. Extra little nod to the small things like lovingly folded napkins, heated handwipes at the end of the meal and refreshingly cold dinner mints when the bill came were really thoughtful touches. Will be back and definitely recommend a visit and you'll be supporting a lovely local business too! ”
“ Absolutely beautiful tasty Indian food. I have ordered takeaways from many Indian Restaurants but this one beats most by far. Food is always hot & fresh when it arrives. My also son uses them all the time now after he had a curry with us from Indigo Bay. He couldn't believe how lovely their Curries were. I wouldn't go anywhere else now. ”
“ Delicious food, delivered warm by friendly people. We ordered a few dishes and sides. They arrived piping hot, well packed and were delicious. Cheers Indigo Bay! ”
