Stratton Saffron - Swindon

We had a takeaway yesterday for the first time. Ordered a whole chicken tandoori and plain paratha. With all the good reviews I was really looking forward to try it. After a long wait which was more than 40 mins (one of the guys even asked me if I ordered) sitting in the shop we had our takeaway ready. I assumed it does take time for chicken tandoori but was disappointed with the chicken. It was not freshly cooked was dry and tasted like a day old. After all the wait and to find the food not fresh really put me off. I gave 2 stars for the paratha which was delicious and freshly made. I’m sure their others dishes are good.

Best Indian Takeaway in town. Food is always consistently tasty. Don’t waste your time going anywhere else!

Stratton Saffron has pleasantly surprised me; I've ordered a few curries now from them and I have no complaints. They're really pleasant on the phone and are happy to make changes to my order. IE: I want the flavour of a particular mild curry but hot. The delivery service is super fast and the driver is friendly and professional. I recommend Stratton Saffron if you're looking for a decent curry.

This is one of the best Indian take always in Swindon if not the best! The food is always consistently of high standard and always a warm welcome. The curries are so full of flavour with many layers and intensities to each dish. The chef is always happy to tweak the dish to your liking and never fails to hit the mark. Service is excellent and you always have a friendly and welcoming experience. The reception area allows you to view the kitchen at work so you are assured of hygiene and can see your food as produced. Never fails to please!!!!!!

Amazing food, great quality ingredients used, always fresh / very tasty & delivered piping hot.
Order every Saturday night (past 2 years) & would never order from anywhere else, this is the best takeaway in Swindon / Wiltshire.
Recommend to all my friends & family & to anyone that asks, this is the best place for a curry.
Staff are very polite, efficient & friendly.
Thank you so much

I can tell if You pre-cook your chicken and keep it warm and then just add it accordingly to taste.
I would’ve preferred it if you would have made me wait an extra 40minutes and cooked it Fresh.
Good food doesn’t necessarily have to come that Fast, because - Fast food Isn’t that good!

Do not buy from here. The customer service is shocking! Over £60, and they missed 2 items. When we called, they ‘told’ us, yes that’s right, there words, to come to the restaurant to change. The person was very rude on the phone, telling us we gave it to them wrong on the phone (we had the piece of paper in front of us- we didn’t get it wrong). Asked to speak to manager. When we did, he was just as bad, and then claimed we were rude and swearing on the phone, which is a complete lie. They then said they would come to the house, and give us the rice we ordered, in replacement for the naan bread they provided. Never, in the 10min discussions on the phone, or driver at the door did anyone apologise. Instead, the manager accused me of swearing on the phone to his staff, and that we ordered incorrectly. Que their response now, which will most likely say the same things- these guys are complete amateurs, have no ounce of customer service on offer, and point blankly lie.
Be prepared, if you’re paying for a large takeaway here, you will regret it. Move to the next nearest restaurant, you will otherwise regret it.
Also, 2 of the people eating had terrible stomach pains the next day! The chicken was dry, and texture poor. Avoid. You’ve been warned.

Addition since response:-
Amusing to see this response. Also amazing.
Perhaps if they get 100s of customers, they are not fussed with terrible service to the odd one here and there. As expected, lies too. Just be wary everyone, they will con you if you’re not on it, and then lie through their teeth to make you be the ogre. Not once did anyone apologise. That’s why we requested the manager called us back, and he was equally as dismissive, and not once apologised himself. A customer service course would be wise…. In any case, be wary if you ever decide to place orders via these guys- awful awful awful.

We ordered for delivery, delivery was quick and the food was hot , loved the chicken Hyderabadi and the tandoor dishes was one of the best , naan bread was so soft and went really well with the chicken Hyderabadi 😋
Would definitely recommend 👍
