"We ordered chicken biriyani. Which was not even biriyani it was more like chicken pulave and it was so trash no flavour at all and the portion was also small. I have been in India so I know what is Indian food. Then we ordered nan it was more like tandoori roti. I don't think they know Indian food. Then we ordered butter chicken (I ate butter chicken from lots of different restaurants in india) they don't know the first thing about butter chicken it is mainly made out of cashew nut and the butter chicken they gave didn't have cashew nuts and normally butter chicken is not sweet but the butter chicken they gave me was sweet. Personally I wouldn't recommend this restaurant to anybody. The worst Indian restaurant I have been to. Very expensive for such trash food."

After 8 years of excellent food, something has changed. Obvious change of chef, possibly ownership. So poor I am now looking for alternatives. View menu

I’ve ordered a few times from here and always given the benefit of the doubt, but every time I get the delayed delivery notifications. The food is okay but underwhelming.

If I could leave 0 stars I would. Almost 2 hours to come. Everytime we phoned they said 10 minutes or that their new guy was really slow, the food was like warm at best. They honestly couldn’t care less if you tell them of a problem!!! Don’t go !!!!!

Very disappointed with the peshawari nan bread, very disappointed with the onion bajhi, rich in unfamiliar colour and a paste like texture and also with the lack of complementary poppadoms after spending £79.80 for a family meal for 4.. I will not be returning to this restaurant for a take away service again View menu

work on the road hadn't eaten all day got a delivery from this place to my hotel chips were saturated in oil literally dripping when I squeezed them... then I had some sort of mixed special kebabs which all just tasted the same in a pool of oil. but worst of all I had severe bowel movements all night and into the next day. honest review just my experience but I certainly would not recommend this place plus it's hygiene rating is only 3 stars which I found out after not good.

Food arrived cold and half the order was missing .I phoned and the manager wouldn’t even listen to what was missing . She continued to not listen when I was trying to explain and she gave an excuse that because they were busy that’s why the food was cold. She constantly spoke over me. No customer service at all and then she hung up on me . Rude . We normally order from them at least once a month and a few times now we have been disappointed. We will definitely not be ordering again now. I just hope I don’t get food poisoning from the cold, greasy and tasteless food

"We stopped in Cullompton on our way elsewhere so that we could have a leg stretch after a long journey. After a walk around the town we saw The Bakehouse and being dog friendly decided to pop in. Friendly service and great atmosphere we decided to have something to eat as well as a drink. An americano and a luxury hot chocolate, with the hot chocolate actually being hot unlike so many places where it is lukewarm and you end up finishing it two minutes later. This was creamy and a good helping of marshmallows! We then ordered a bakehouse toastie consisting of cheddar and mozzarella with hogs bottom tomato and red onion chutney. It was like a meal in itself and a very impressive and fresh side salad. We also ordered the crispy fried halloumi wrap with rocket, peppers, red onion and chilli sauce. Again, a large serving with great side salad. Both meals freshly made and piping hot, so chance for them to cool down a bit and enjoy the surroundings of the premises. A great place and one we will be sure to visit again next time we pass through. Oh whilst I am a Costa coffee fan, which is just on the opposite side of the road, I implore people to support The Bakehouse team where you get freshly prepared on-site food and drink at prices more competitive than you will get in any major chain coffee house."

"For dessert, my husband enjoyed a sticky chocolate orange cake, while I had a salted caramel gateau (similar to a cake), both served with double cream and garnished with a strawberry. The staff were incredibly welcoming, and we will definitely be returning. We've dined out frequently, and I can honestly say that I haven't seen my husband enjoy a meal this much in a long time! I highly recommend this restaurant!"

"Having had a takeaway from here before, we decided on Chinese, to celebrate our son's 21st birthday. I think that McDonald's would have been a better choice. At least the food is freshly cooked. Our son, who is a qualified chef, said that everything was pre-prepared and heated up in a microwave. The beef with ginger and spring onions, was just a few pieces of over cooked beef, half a spring onion and 2 small slices of ginger. The rest of the pot was onion. It had no taste whatsoever. The duck was tasteless and the lamb was chewy. The spring rolls were chewy. The noodles were dry and in a lump. The rice was in a lump. Most of it ended up in the bin. Oh, the prawn crackers were ok!! Certainly won't be going here again and definitely wouldn't recommend it."

"I never write a review as I always address face to face give you the opportunity to make good, but...One of the most vile tasting Chinese takeaways I have ordered. We had chicken satay which was a thick gelatinous bland tasteless sauce in my book not chicken satay at all , the crispy beef was again in a thick gelatinous vinergrey sauce the beef was tough and soggy as so much sauce and the Yung chow mein again bland and very cheap cuts of meat which reminded me of spam. I called them say I was unimpressed spoke to the owner who apologised and basically told me they have many happy customers and never had complaint about their food as they have always had same chef and cooked like this for years. If this was a restaurant I would have not eaten it and refused to pay. This was a Saturday night treat I will never make mistake again and in future avoid the China orchid in cullompton not that they cared anyway."
