Pointing in Basingstoke

“Had a lovely meal at Spicy Tadka. Decor was beautiful. Food came out very quick and with beautiful flavours. Would come again.”

“An absolutely gorgeous pub! The food was excellent - everything tasted home made, whether it was or not. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars was because I had the pie with red cabbage and the red cabbage was far too sweet - the same for the gravy with the sausages and mash. Other than that, the best pub meal I've had in a long time and everyone else agreed.”

“Ran in and asked if they could have a pizza ready in 10 mins they did it in 5 and service was great. Pizza is fantastic. 10/10 no complaints. Thank you!”

“Perfect if you want a self contained place to stay in the area. Best place I've found in area over the years, spotless and typically cheaper than a hotel. First choice every time.”

“Both the food and service were exceptional. Such a beautiful meal. Will 100% come back more often. Stunning!!”

“We happened to be in the area for my husband’s work and was craving homely food and stumbled upon Elai. Being from Kerala ourselves we have to say this has to be the BEST Kerala restaurant we’ve been to in UK ( and we’ve been to many). From the service to the atmosphere to the food authenticity- it was all PERFECT! Would definitely be returning if we’re in the area. 10/10 recommend.”

“Stayed for the night following a friend's birthday celebration. Warm welcome on check in and everything explained regarding breakfast and checking out. Beautiful large room for 2 of us to share, everything you could need to make a comfortable stay. Bathroom with a large walk in shower, looked fairly new and sparkling clean. Comfy beds and a fabulous breakfast in the morning. Perfectly poached eggs. The evening meal was lovely everyone was impressed with their choices and portion sizes were fabulous for the price. Staff were happy to add a candle to our friend's desert for us. Definitely would recommend and would stay again if in the area.”

“The owners are great talkative people with amazing food”

“Proper quality pub food, the gentlemen Jacob was genuinely on point and was egar to help with any questions, this is the fort pub I've been to in a while that actually caters for their customers, providing genuine customer support and a top grade customer service I recently moved into tadley and now this.. will and forever be my local boozer for food, drink and of course sports on the telly. Thank you fox and hound ☺️”

“It was the first time for us to try German Doner Kebab, we ordered chicken wrap ( Doner Durum wrap ), it was delicious ❤ full of chicken as we ordered, it reminded me of ( Shawerma ) in my country. the flaming fries were good as well .. we definitely will try it again ..”

“Actually better taste than other local places. If you order the set menu the sizes are different that's because it's for 1 or 2 person. If you order separately the sizes are big. Great tasting food will back again. Absolutely clean kitchen. Best I have seen in a while.”

“Me and my girlfriend decided we would try out the food in this fine establishment. We bought a drink at the bar then was taken to our seats to order food. It happened to be steak night and our waiter (Luke) was absolutely amazing, with good old British banter but also very professional. I always get a Rib/eye steak, but like recommended something else by like and I was not disappointed at all. My other half got fish and chips which was cooked to perfection, and oh my god the beef dripping chips are to die for! We will 100% be back, and give Luke a raise because he deserves one!!”

“Delicious food, great service. Very nice cozy place, dog friendly only little minus was to cold.”

“Amazing, authentic indian foood! Couldn’t recommend more! Staff were very friendly, especially Srinu. We ordered the butter chicken and another dish. Butter chicken and their nan are to die for. If you are in basingstoke, this restaurant is a must.”

“The restaurant is really nice and well kept. The staff are pleasant and the food is really good. Honestly I feel like most of the negative reviews are due to delivery services and not themselves. Although I was there to pick up an order myself, I feel like I missed the experience and so would certainly be coming back for the dining experience.”

“We love the Cromwell. Food is excellent Indian cuisine. Proper tablecloths, proper linen napkins, reasonable prices. Their lunchtime banquet @ £16 is more than most can eat”

“We were a large group and all of us had a great time. The service was 1st class. The food was excellent. Some of the best curries in the town. Really nice cozy restaurant, and good value for money. We will definitely be returning.”

“Very good food, easily the best chinese I've had will definitely be ordering again, delivery was very also very quick and food was still hot, highly recommend it.”

“Great food and the loveliest staff ! Greatly recommend their chicken balls and chilli chicken Will come again”

“Great experience with Alicja, she was very sweet and helpful and gave many options while choosing the perfect bed! She was extremely knowledgeable with getting the best price and how to save the most money and always putting the customer first. She gave the best customer service and I came out with the perfect bed!”

“This very well could be the best takeaway I’ve had. Service was very friendly, delivery was quick, prices were cheap and the food is SO DAMN GOOD!!”
