The 30 Best Traditional flavors in Watford

“This joint is amazing!! Went in with the Fam and the door was banging! My fave was the samosas. Crispiness - Perfect, generous stuffing, creative Dips - awesome presentation. Great food, Dope customer service. Highly recommend”

“The food here is absolutely amazing and authentic to the true flavors of Northern India ❤️. Cannot go wrong with the staples: hot masala chai, papadums, garlic naan, bombay mix, butter chicken and lamb Biriyani. Food took a little long to arrive to table, but it was well worth the wait! Our server is named Freya and was very friendly! Highly recommend if in the Watford area.”

“Absolutely amazing! The food tasted incredible — fresh, full of flavour, and perfectly cooked. Definitely one of the best pizzas I’ve had in Watford. Highly recommend!”

“Amazing street food menu - £20 for 5 small plates of street food. Menu changes and is inspired by places in India. Food is incredible. The rum old fashioned was delicious! Will be coming back :) staff are also friendly and welcoming.”

“I had a really good experience at Watford Chaiiwala. The customer service was excellent, and the staff were very friendly, polite, and welcoming from the moment I walked in. The shop was very clean, tidy, and well organised, which made it a comfortable place to sit and enjoy my drink. Everything felt fresh and hygienic. I would definitely visit again and recommend Watford Chaiiwala to others.”

“"Exquisite flavors danced on my taste buds, leaving me craving more. Each bite was a tantalizing journey of culinary artistry." "Their attention to detail and impeccable presentation elevated the dining experience to new heights, making every dish a delightful masterpiece."”

“Chinese man answered the phone to me and didn't laugh at my terrible attempt at pronunciation of particular herbs & fungi instead, he shared some of his considerable knowledge on the area of ailment I was keen to find out if Chinese herbalism could help. I'm going back tomorrow about something else. Very good.”

“Go here a few times a week to mainly grab a chicken katsu salad which is 10/10. Sometimes have other food like sweet and sour chicken or katsu curry. Food is always very good and service is normally also perfect. Although lately have noticed service to be getting a little slower. Was waiting to be served for nearly 10 minutes whilst Deliveroo drivers coming in after me were getting served straight away. That just needs improving”

“This guy is an absolute legend! My family and I ordered from his place back when he had a shop in Uxbridge, when we lived there. I was absolutely elated to find he's now here in Croxley, where we are too. The best kebabs we've ever had!”

“Genuinely the best Thai I’ve ever had in the UK. And genuinely the closest thing to authentic Thai food from Thailand itself! The Khao Soi and the Penang curries were truly outstanding! Apple (the owner) and the staff were super friendly! Couldn’t recommend highly enough and I’m guaranteed to go back regularly! Thank you for having us!”

“Great vibe in place well decorated and service staff very good and helpful. As for the food 10/10. We drove from ipswich to meet some london family half way and it was a very nice afternoon in restaurant.”

“Excellent micropub close to Watford’s Vicarage Lane football stadium. Four varied real ales served in great condition”

“What a lovely little restaurant with lovely authentic food. Thank you to Iglé (sorry if I spelt your name wrong) for squeezing us in and being the best waiter. Really loved the food and drinks, and all for a good price. Will be visiting again.”

“We had a lovely dinner with ladies. Plenty and delicious food… lovely atmosphere…”

“Came here for the first time to try the food. I had prawn pad Thai and remind me of my time back in Thailand. Finish it within minute! Very good food. We order some more food to take home for the family. Great prices and good portion sizes.”

“Editing my review - Very fresh deli, the shop is always clean, good prices and professional staff members. Too bad the shop is small, you don't have a lot of space to move around if there are 2 more customers in the shop let's say. But overall, I recommend it!”

“This place was 10/10, I did not order in store but I ordered from Deliveroo and I had to come and leave another review. This is the tastiest Caribbean food that I’ve had in Watford and I’ve lived here for 20 years. In fact, it’s probably the best I’ve had anywhere in years. The flavours were amazing, you can tell the jerk chicken came straight off the jerk pan, it was so flavourful, the rice and peas was rich in coconut, the macaroni could’ve had a bit more flavour, but when you eat everything together, you can’t even notice. The portion size was massive, it could easily feed two people. I also got a Jamaican dumpling on the side and it was so, so good, it was soft, sweet, and pillowy. I will recommend this place to everyone if you want a good Caribbean dish.”

“Had a paneer tikka Kathi roll, fries and a can of Limca for £8.90. Food was served within minutes, piping hot. Fries were really crispy and the portion was a good size for one. The paneer tikka roll was filling and tasted very delicious. Not too spicy. The kathi roll was a flaky paratha that crumbed a bit but tasted really buttery and crispy. Staff were friendly and helpful. We dined in and the lady at the counter brought our food to us. They clear and clean all tables as customers leave. They have veg and non veg options. Would eat here again.”

“During our trip to Watford to visit the Warner Bros. Harry Potter Studio, we discovered this restaurant completely by chance. For our arrival lunch, the four of us had an absolutely delightful meal. Both the children and the adults loved every dish. The food was exquisite, and we received a very warm welcome. We enjoyed it so much that we decided to return for dinner the following evening before the end of our stay, and we were just as impressed with the other dishes we tried. The quality of the food is superb, and the service is excellent. We highly recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting the area! Christine , Nathalie & kids”

“A lovely Indian restaurant with amazing food and wonderful staff. Every dish is full of flavor, and the service makes you feel right at home. Highly recommend for a great meal!”

“Very good Romanian products at affordable prices”

“Excellent Italian Restaurant in Watford! This is a fantastic Italian restaurant with delicious food, generous portions, and great value. The flavors are authentic, and every dish is well-prepared. Service is very efficient, even during busy lunchtime hours. The fact that it’s always packed shows how popular it is with locals—I believe it’s a well-renowned spot in the area. Located in a very convenient spot in Watford, it’s definitely worth a visit if you’re looking for quality Italian cuisine. Highly recommended!”

“Best take away in oxhey hands down, every dish is tasty and usually piping hot. Forget any other local Chinese, this is the one. They don't provide a delivery service on any apps so you have to collect, but for the quality it's more than worth it. No dine in available either fyi. But I wish there were!”

“Best Romanian shop in the area! Nice selection of goods from Home + really friendly and polite service from the staff ! I can only recommend!”

“Make sure you visit when in Watford! Fantastic food. Meat wonderfully seasoned. Lovely atmosphere with great music. Fantastic hosts! We will return and recommend ”

“Really nice food. We ordered for take away. The waiting time was not very long, for 3 dishes we've been waiting around 10-15 min. We had a picnic in the park, the trip took us 15-20 min, when we arrived the food was still very hot and delicious. Very nice serving and packing. Definitely we'll try again next time.”

“I always come and eat here every weekend , the staff are really friendly and their food is really great and really good portions , and when I was about to write this review I saw a review a “customer”saying they have 3/5 food rating which I didn’t believe because the store looks really clean and tidy even on a weekend after I saw their 5 star sticker so don’t believe the lies guys”

“Lovely place provided good food and excellent service”
