If the formal service, over-the-top, chintzy interior and slightly ridiculous new name all suggest illusions of grandeur all is forgiven because the food is very good. The owner clearly takes a lot of pride in his establishment. The menu selection is vast, with all the classics and special 'low-cholesterol' sauce options, which you don't see very often. Prices are probably higher than the other curry houses in the area. Oh and the naan breads really are like tasty duvets - you'll want to eat it all, but probably won't

Good popular Indian restaurant on the main street in Congleton. Limited parking available behind,…read morealthough entrance is extremely tight. More parkng available outside of the road. Great food, and service. Plenty of curries etc to choose from. Plenty of tables, but can get busy. Good value for money, and we never managed to find room for deserts! Naan breads are huge, and we often end up getting one between us, and taking the leftover bread home. I wouldn't reccomend ordering one naan each. If it rains, you could always use it as an umbrella!

Beartown Spices is a dedicated Indian and Bangladeshi takeaway that suddenly appeared opposite my dentist, ideally positioned for me to pull over and pick up food on the way home from work. The food is excellent and good value. Although I did initially share the set meal for two option (£19) I lived for four days on the ample leftovers... and it tasted just as good on the fourth day. Orders are ready within about 20 minutes for pickup, and there are free sweets on the counter if you get there early. There's also a 'within the hour' delivery service that's free if you spend more than £10. Do it.

They take reservations and your table will be ready. The food is outstanding. I'm taking my daughter to England this weekend (we are from Florida) and this is literally on our agenda the weekend we get in. The food is so flavorful and delicious. It's best to go with a lot of people so you can try a bit of everything! We loved everything we tried but the chicken tikka masala with the sweet naan with the honey is the best! We can't wait to have dinner there!!!

From the outside it looks like any other Indian place and once you get inside it's again pretty standard. The difference is the menu and the quality of the food. I had a really excellent fish pakora to start and then one of the chef's specials as a main. The naan bread (the make or break element of a curry for me) was perfect so I was very happy. It was really busy and people were being turned away on a Thursday evening which is always a sign of good food. As a result I'd recommend booking a table in advance. You can get the metrolink to Altrincham then a taxi down to Hale or the train goes all the way there. This place really stands out from some of the samey average/poor curry houses in south Manchester.
