Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Ordered a takeaway from here tonight and it was amazing! Me and my partner ordered a lamb korma, egg fried rice, dhal puri, the starter for 1 and the jumbo mixed wrap. We had massive portions and have plenty for lunch tomorrow aswell. Food was...piping hot and served on time. The lamb korma was the winner for me as it was so creamy and tasty 😍 Will definitely be our new go to Indian.More

Taste was okay overall but curry was really watery, chicken was dry and the keema naan barely had any keema. Overall disappointing.

Friday night curry night 🙌 As far as takeaways go, Indian isn't too high on my go to list, but when you throw BABAs into the mix, that changes everything! ❤ Here I ordered ➡️ 🍴Chicken tikka starter 🍴Black Bhuna (comes with paratha) 🍴Chicken Balti...🍴Peshwari naan Stunning. All of it. That black bhuna especially, is legendary, and I can see why! Incredible flavours 🤤 If you're not a big fan of spice like me then these are solid options too👌More

I regularly order from Baba's as they're always so consistent and it's really great value, especially for veggies. If you're looking for something a bit different I also recommend the Veg Kofta Ball curry which is unlike anything I've had anywhere else - it's kinda...like a falafel made from paneer in a lovely rich sauce. Highly recommended! Moreover, the whole menu is super reasonably priced. A large rice is less than £3 and is more than enough for 2 people + second helpings + the potato/paneer side dishes are large enough that they can be eaten as a main. This isn't fine dining but it's flavourful, well priced takeaway grub.More

love the food from babas, never disappoint on taste or flavor or quality. I'm always happy when food arrives as I know I will be satisfied and there's always left over for the next day, what is not to love about this place. Can't praise...the chef enough.More

Having read so many reviews regarding here thought I would try the street food range I opted for the wings. Jumbo samosas and the jumbo wrap. Firstly I'd like to add maybe a side salad with the samosas would have been a nice touch. Also...the jumbo wrap was overwhelmed with onions so once you take away all the onions your not left with a lot of chicken and lamb. The wings were very tasty and a fairly good portion of 6. I will return again and maybe try the curries.More

First time I had a meal from here and I really wanted to like it. Sadly I didn't. Onion bhaji were unlike any I've had before, chewy on the outside and really soft and mushy inside. Not much spinach in my chicken saag, chicken was...chewy in both curries I had. Not huge portions either. May try once more just to be sure it wasn't just an off day.More

Thank you for a delicious meal. We really liked Baba’s biryani and the sauce that came with it. The street food menu is really unique, wish we had photos of the wontons, but they were so deliciously crunchy, they were gone in under minute!
