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.

We've been visiting Thakers ever since it opened and it's become one of our favourite treats in the town centre, even catering for our cravings during lockdown via delivery. From the moment you enter you can feel the love that is missing in so many larger restaurants; Thakers is casual, friendly and emblematic of the blend of British and Indian culture that is one of Hounslow's strong points. Other diners often talk to you because of the casual seating arrangement and there are so many tasty vegetarian options that you'll want to come back and try more. My personal favourite is the dahi puri; it puts a smile on my face every time. It's worth taking the time to find the shop down its side street because while there's a lot of competition in Hounslow, Thakers still stands out as a real gem years after we first walked through their doors.

This Indian restaurant is my favourite and I always visit it whenever I am shopping around in Hounslow Shopping Centre.This is only vegetarian restaurant. It’s small nice and clean but above all the food is not highly spicy but moderately spicy and really tasty and that’s mine main priority. So far at my every visit I never felt disappointed.Actually there is a good selection of restaurants in the area but this is my favourite. The prices are average so nothing to complain about.

Good quality and choice of Indian vegetarian food from snacks to main meals, without the over use of oil or grease.
They could do with being more environmental conscious and not use so much plastic with no recycling options. Disappointing on this front!

Recently visited Thakers and ordered several items to take away. The lady serving looked like she didn't want to be there and was quite rude. We waited over 30 mins for the food with at least 5 other customers getting their food before us. When asked as to the reason for the delay, we were given ridiculous excuses and brushed off as causing a nuisance. Lessons learned. Stay away if you're expecting good service.

Arrogant and egoistic owner who is against equality. He organized a diwali evening party and says rules need to be followed by queuing for buffet, but does not follow the queue rule for his friends and family.
Also, does not replace items missing in the buffet. Some got, many did not get all the food.
Thakers is gone downhill due to this owner. Do not bother going there unless the owner is humbled and he has learnt his lesson.

Really unhappy with the customer service. They got my order wrong and was told this would be rectified to only find out that they will not get the correct order to me. Telling me that they gave me what I requested when it clearly wasn’t ( it’s like telling someone they gave you coffee when you got tea) they proceeded to tell me that I should order something else next time as if it’s my fault that the chef got my order wrong. Won’t be back again as this is not the first time this has happened.

We ordered a Thali and paneer roll. Both dishes were bland and tasteless,
We particularly asked for tarla daal to be made bit hotter, but instead received so mild with some chopped green chillies added on the top.
Not the same food as before even a couple sitting next to us were not happy with their food. Shame to see standard has gone down...

I bought the paneer wrap with a mango lassi. Shocking food. Portions sizes are very small, and the filling inside was tasteless. In addition to that the mango lassi was the best thing about the whole meal however in 3 sips it was over.

Honestly divine food... we shared samosa chaat, pav bhaji and chole bhature and masala fries.. loved every dish!!! Gutted we couldn't eat in, but will look forward to that after covid restrictions are lifted.
Definitely vegetarian food for the soul..! My carnivorous husband certainly didn't miss meat in the food. Its outstanding and can't wait to go back.

This place has seriously gone downhill.
Most of all the staff are RUDE RUDE RUDE.
There’s so much more options now. People of Hounslow take a walk along Stains Road new place Chaat & Go is good. Staff amazing and great service. It’s a small take-away only place but I prefer it head over heels over Thakkers.

I’ve never been so disappointed in my life. I went with high ambition. This is the first time I have wasted money on food. It has made me want to be a meat eater again. I would rather lick a rock. I got the paneer grill wrap it was Sabzi in roti. I want back. I hope i didn’t offend anyone but I’m really upset and effected my mental health.
