My wife and I have been customers here for about four years now. I have found it a pretty well run take away... until today.It has been a cold, wet night so as it was a Saturday, it made sense to ring our order through and collect when ready as we often do. Yet the phone was constantly, seemingly engaged. In the end, having tried about 20 times, I decided I'd have to go in the rain, order, and probably come back when it was ready.On arrival, the shop had far more people than normal inside. When I got inside, all was revealed: there were two young female staff inside and the telephone had been taken OFF the hook!When I got to the counter, I asked if there was a problem with the phone. The server sheepishly said "oh, a lot of calls were coming in and it was getting really busy!"....yes, that's what happens on a Saturday night! If this was an Apprentice candidate, she'd have been fired by Alan Sugar before even getting near the boardroom. I cannot understand for the life of me why any business would be happy to lose trade by such shambolic practices.On my resentful return, I collected the order from the other member of staff who just handed it to me. No word of thanks. The naan breads had also been omitted. What was galling on my return was that the telephone receiver had been replaced and was (slowly) being answered.Farewell Bengal Spice. I have no idea why your standards have fallen so low but I won't be returning anymore.

Our Saturday night takeway tonight was very disappointing. My starter of a Prawn Patia was just tasteless and totally unappetising. It was like eating cardboard. Ive had this dish many times and it really bombed tonight. Unfortunately my main course, Chicken Shatkora was likewise, bland, no flavour abd not worth eating. My wifes coconut lamb was inedible - the meat was as tough as shoe leather. So we just gave up and put the lot in the bin. While I was waiting to collect my meal the owner made great play of telling a caller that they donât do delivery, they offer great food and people have to come to them. Well I would agrue that statement. Mind you with food this bad it probably isnât worth delivering it. Come on guys improve your food. It is not good.

The food was delicious and diverse. The service was impeccable and fast, although the place was full. I loved it!

The service and the atmosphere were good, but the food was a real let down. We ordered from the âspecialsâ, going for a supposedly hot dish, and even asked to confirm that it would be spicy as we like a bit of heat. The curry had no heat at all, and no flavour, just over cooked meat and lots of grease. We wonât be returning. There are much better options for curry in Newbury.
