Bhaji Pala in Stockport

Updating my review to be more specific, this restaurant is excellent. Each dish is so full of flavour and the staff are wonderful. We really love the aubergine and peanut curry, favourite dish is the potato and chickpea starter 👌

I have eaten food from here plenty of times and is my favourite indian restaurant out of everywhere and I've been to alot. All the dishes are unique to the establishment and the style of cooking is outstanding and unlike anything else I have tried in 35 years of eating Indian food. Only obstacle on me ordering more often is the cost, the portions are ok and I believe due to the skill fo the chef are well worth the money, but I find myself wanting more after I have ran out of food, because it is so delicious abd when eating for the family its out of budget except on a treat. Honestly the food is enlightening to how vegans can still enjoy delicious culinary experience. I am not vegan.

The food is very authentic, healthy and delicious. As Vegans, we loved the choice on the menu and just how tasty it all was. I had a Thali and my partner had the Jackfruit Curry with Cumin rice. We will be back for more delicious food as I'm aware they do a buffet and change the Thali's up to represent different Indian regions.

Highly recommended! Not only is the food flavourful, filling and delicious, the service is fantastic too! They cater for no onion, no garlic and are also able to do dishes mild for those who don’t like too much spice. The drinks are good and the desserts are even better. This has become our regular place to visit!

Highly recommended - the vegan food range, fresh quality, service and price has been consistent - for the past few years. Come here if you want good quality food and time without breaking the bank. Mint Cardamom Lassi is my favourite drink! Not too heavy and refreshing.

Really pleasant environment and Great tasty Food. staff were friendly and accommodated our special diet too.

Fantastic meal and excellent service!! Highly recommend.

Went with family amazing food very friendly staff Accommodating for our twins too 5 star

Had a lovely time at this restaurant with a group of friends. The staff, food, ambience all were incredible. If you want great Indian food, look no further

Couldn't fault the food or staff. Absolutely lovely meal.

Another faultless experience at Bhaji Pala. Wonderful host & staff, divine Bhaji Pala Special & Bharli Vanghi. My friend had never been before & was very impressed with the experience too. Nothing is too much trouble, accomodates my coeliac requirements perfectly.

The Dal Palak was too spicy! Your food never used to be this hot! Why have you suddenly changed?

Just the perfect restaurant. Lovely decor, friendly staff and absolutely superb food. Only wish I lived locally - I would be there every week!

I have been to Bhaji Pala several times and it’s an excellent place, really nice vegan food and as an Indian myself I can say it taste really good. I have recently had their new Thali’s and they are really nice and fun to eat. Will definitely recommend it..

First time trying this restaurant. Really enjoyed it ! Didn't think anywhere could match up to my favourite Indian restaurant in South Manchester, Sanskruti but this is now a v close second that I will visit again and recommend to my vegetarian/vegan friends.

This was our 1st time ordering but will not be the last! The food was really tasty and delicious. amazing veggie take away!

Food is so tasty and so reasonably priced. Not fatty very clean and so healthy and tasty!!

Bhaji Pala are in my neighbourhood so we’ve been here many times. The food is always delicious and as its all vegan different from what you usually get at an indian restaurant. We love the beetroot and jackfruit curries and the tofu makhani. Service also very friendly

For anyone doubting you can get good Indian plant based food, this is the place you need to eat! Just had another fabulous meal here & cant recommend it highly enough. Delicious food, lovely staff & a cool vibe. Totally recommend 👌🏼

the food is generally very good but the Makhani tasted like heinz tomato soup so I wouldn't order that again. Everything else is really nice. Gorgeous samosas. The delivery left a bit to be desired tonight, and I paid a delivery tip in advance. The driver needs a refresher course on Google Maps. He got the food to us but I think he drove past the street a couple of times.

Absolutely lovely service and great food. The Mirchi Balwaan is a new favourite. As a Celiac, there are plenty of gluten free options on the menu.

Group of friends celebrating. Beautiful place, the choice of dishes is very good. Nicely presented. Very friendly staff.

This is the 3rd time I have been to this restaurant as I live in York. However, I always go to it when I'm in the area as it's so good. The food is amazing, the staff are helpful in choosing dishes and it's a lovely restaurant.

Just the best Indian Restaurant in South Manchester..,you don’t need to be vegan to enjoy the amazing flavours created by the friendly family run restaurant.: we love it and come back whenever we are in the area

Excellent vegan food, thoroughly recommended

The food was hot, tasty and really satisfying, thank you so much for the delicious dinner

Every dish was outstanding. Chaat platter great combination of textures and flavours. Excellent Masala Dosa and some unusual and exceptional curries. Gourd dumplings in spicy, creamy sauce perfect and mixed veg curry fresh, varied veg with bite. Friendly service and great value.

Great food, nice ambience - can definitely visit again.

Great food and atmosphere. Highly recommend.

Great vegetarian curry’s and fabulous bhajis

Truly amazing place to try Indian vegan dishes, wonderful staff happy to help and kind.

The atmosphere is very tidy and nice. Also well-designed. I particularly liked the cuttleries and plates. The food is great, and every menu is vegan which was special. Staffs were extremely kind. I cannot complain about anything. The only advice is that perhaps you may want to find a table far away from the airconditioner. The food easily get cold due to the wind. I guess it is personal prefererence though. Toilet was clean as well! They have high chair for babies.

Where to start bhaja Pala has been on my go to since the start of the year after visiting sthanm1 in Manchester discovered this was a joint restaurant but the twist all vegan After that I was sold as I’m vegan yet my family aren’t yet open to trying alternatives so finally visited for their Sunday buffet and I quote they said ‘we didn’t even miss meat’ high praise indeed and incredible to hear Now onto the experience itself , on arriving made to feel welcome , a small cosy establishment that had a relaxing atmosphere And for the food … faultless , the buffet was fresh , well presented and great variety , we were shown each dish and if any questions answered knowledgeably From the accompanying chutney , pickles , Papad /poppadom and raita to start and incredible fresh salad , there were 3 starters (Mini Potato Vada ,Tandoori Pineapple And Tofu Mushroom Chilli) Plus 3 main curries (Veg Harlyali ,jackfruit and Rajma Masala ) Paired with rice Peas Pulao and Butter Naan Not to mention as many dosas made fresh to order as your heart content (and stomach capacity of course) that was lovely dipped in Coconut Chutney and Sambar For just over £15 each incredible value for the quality and concept a must try place vegan or not for an authentic Indian and hidden gem in Manchester

Staff are always very attentive and friendly, menu has tons to choose from and everything I’ve tried is absolutely divine!

This is seriously the best Indian food I’ve ever had, not because it’s Vegan, just because it’s incredibly tasty. Ps. I’m not Vegan so not biased, just really do yourself a favour and come visit, you will leave very happy!

My review is about Bengali thaali. We went as a group of friends for their much advertised Thaali meals. We chose Bengali. It’s a shame that not much was Bengali there!!! The pickle was store bought. There were hardly any recognisable Bengali dishes, there were two sabjis that were not specific to Bengal. No puchkas, no rossogolla, no mishti dahi. Very disappointing and expensive too! 30£ for a very non Bengali, tasteless meal!

Wonderful food and great service from friendly staff.

Love this place - I highly recommend! Amazing food, lovely staff and the atmosphere is always great. Best Indian restaurant I know. I can’t wait to go back and those I have introduced to this restaurant have loved it too! Can’t not mention the cocktails either - up there with the best of them 🫶🏻

Fabulous. The food is authentic Indian, beautifully prepared and presented. Everything about this gem is a class act.

Had a very nice meal, if not different. Very unusual and different Indian dishes that were so enjoyable. Highly recommend it

We are always so well looked after. The flavours are amazing, the service attentive and the atmosphere is welcoming. Loved by all friends vegan and otherwise.

Highly recommend! Food is amazing. Staff are friendly. The atmosphere is always great. Best Indian restaurant in the north west by far. I recommend eating your way through the entire menu as there isn’t a single dish on there that isn’t delicious!

Having heard great reviews about a vegan Indian restaurant, I finally went there with my family. My family tried the jackfruit biryani and panini puri, and I had the dosa buffet, which was £15.99 per person and included 3 mains, 3 starters, dosa, naan, and tomato rice—absolute value for money. I was mind-blown by the simplicity and flavor of the dishes here. 5/5

The best Vegetarian food in South Manchester by a long way. Wonderful staff, always go the extra mile. We will go often :)

Outstanding and eclectic vegan delights. An absolute gem- Highly recommended.

We had a very uneven experience - the food was all good, although a few things were unavailable, but the service and ambiance weren’t great. First we were sat under an irritating flickering light, which we were told “would stop soon” but didn’t. Our waiter was extremely casual to the point being almost rude, we waited ages for drinks despite the restaurant being very quiet, and probably most irritating was someone who worked there going in and out of the door countless times in the space of 10 minutes or so, meaning some of our group had to put their coats on. Having eaten here several times previously and always recommended it to everyone, unfortunately based on this experience I probably won’t do so again

The food is delicious, like; everything is at least good - if not great. menu is fantastic and offers enough variation without being too broad. The staff are very friendly but not overbearing. This has become our favourite place to go.

The food was so delicious and the service was really great, too!.“The Punjabi thali” was so yummy and I ate the whole thing, even though it was quite heavy for one person and specially lassi 😋😋. Went well with the sauce and vegetables🥰🥰🥰. After so many years in UK I have ate proper Indian food🤩🤩

Worst service I've ever had. I never ever review anywhere but it was so slow I have to warn others. In the space of 2 hours we only had our starters and the place was half full.

We visited here last Friday as a group of 8. Some vegetarian, vegan and some meat eaters. We all enjoyed the food. The service was good. Will revisit.

I am a hardcore carnivores, and this is the only veg/vegan restaurant I eat at, now if I am saying this, imagine the amount of delicious the food might be!

I recently visited this restaurant and had the uthauppam, broccoli manchurian, and thali. The food was absolutely delicious and felt more like home-cooked meals, with an authentic taste. Despite being a very small place, it’s one of the best spots to try if you're looking for Indian vegan cuisine. Most of the menu is made from soya, and I highly recommend it. Prices were very reasonable too...!!

This was clearly a badly made order. didn't provide spicy chutney at all, had terribly extra salt on the puffed rice filling. It was extremely sweet as well. clearly won't be ordering from here again. Shame that this Vegan restaurant is cutting corners.

genuinely this place should have a Michelin star, the food is incredible, if you're not vegetarian don't be put off you honestly won't miss the meat. if there's an award for takeaways then this place should get gold!

Bhaji Pala is absolutely incredible, probably one of the best Indians I've ever tried! Everything is always amazing!!

My partner took me there yesterday. We were not really hungry so we ordered plate to share and some side dish. Absolutely delicious food and we will be back for more!

I absolutely love this place. Being Indian, I am very critical of Indian restaurants I eat at. I went last week with friends who had not been before. I am not vegetarian but never leave this restaurant without a tummy full (but not heavy) of food and a heart full of love and admiration. Never disappoints. Unusual dishes cooked to perfection. Hats off to the team. Keep up the good work. I will be back soon. Huge shout out to Christopher who was looking after everyone that dined in that evening. You are a star. Well done Devang (Owner) you have smashed it. See you soon 😊

Fabulous buffet, lovely staff, nice place 😊😊😊

The portions were very small and the entre platter was mostly chips drowned in chilli relish.

Fantastic curry, made us very happy.

Amazing food, and not expensive either, we will be back soon! Update, weve been back maybe 5 or 6 times, never disappointed A+++++

Was here on Sunday and had the Sunday Buffet. All the food was not your typical banglideshi/Indian food you normally get in restaurants around here. They had way more authentic food. You can order Dosa (a think rice pancake with filling) as well as helping yourself to the various different starters ,curry’s and dips. I had masala dosa x2 with coconut chutney and the Samber which was delicious. There was also fresh poppodoms and chutneys and veg spring rolls and and unusual dish which was made with tofu which I didn’t think I would like but it was tasty. They had a chick pea curry and a creamy veg curry on also. I’ve travelled in India and this is the most authentic Indian food I’ve tasted in this country

I think this might be my favourite Indian restaurant in the world (and I eat a lot of Indian food). Food is amazing, the fact that it's plant based is a bonus. Go with a group, go on your own before a morning flight from Manchester airport, whatever just go!

Simply cannot fault this place: never had a bad dish here. Recently, we went to the Sunday buffet which was fantastic & great value too. We will be back!

The concept of a vegan Indian restaurant is quite novel, but the quality and taste are exceptional . I highly recommend their Sunday buffet, which includes hot dosas served right at your table .. A must try for all peeps out there to to go out and experience the ever so versatile Indian cuisine

Brilliant food served by very friendly staff thanks guys

Food is always fantastic from here as I've ordered many times from here Confirmation took too long and delivery times kept changing. It is my birthday today so I'm disappointed it took too long

Need to visit, their takeaway is excellent!

Really superb interesting tasty food and lovely interesting staff Top place,so glad to have been introduced to it

Brilliant Sunday buffet. Wide selection of dishes. Altogether a very pleasant experience

Eaten here several times now and it's always been great. Love having so many food options to chose from. Great value for money, friendly service, good portion sizes.

Love this place, have been a few times and have always enjoyed trying something new. Really tasty food and friendly staff. The Sunday buffet today was great value for money.

Simply amazing food, very accommodating, strongly recommended for anyone in the area!

We had a delicious meal at this lovely little restaurant. The food was amazing - done of the best curries we've ever had, perfectly cooked naan and it was all clearly freshly made. Such a high standard and the service was also fantastic - really friendly and efficient staff.

Fantastic food and service. Ate here while staying at airport for a flight the following day. We even ordered two Dosa's for breakfast the following day, they were cold obvs but still delicious. Definitely eat here again when in the area.

Awesome food - family meal for dad’s birthday and the food and service was amazing. The starters were amazing. Masala dosa was fab!

A truly imaginative menu. 6 stars.

Great vegan restraint. Foods great, service is great. Will be back

Was so excited just reading the menu and the food did not disappoint. The nicest Indian I've ever had. The waiter was extremely helpful and could really explain the food. I couldn't recommend them highly enough. Thank for a wonderful meal.

An evening to celebrate Mothers everywhere. Excellent service, wonderful, tasty food. This was our second visit and the meal was just as delicious, We will be back.

Delicious and quality vegan food caters to everyone. Hardest bit is to choose as there are many, many tasty options.

When it comes to Plant based/Vegan Indian cooking - this restaurant has the crown! We had a selection of dishes here as we wanted to try the entire menu (we clearly need to come back again and again to achieve this!) but by golly was it good! Excellent recommendations by the friendly staff, lovely decor, warm and inviting - all things we all want to see in any restaurant these days - and Bhaji does it beautifully. Well done guys, can’t wait to come again.

Wow such great food. I picked up family from Manchester airport and found this gem of a place 10mins away. We love Indian food and this place had the best variety of vegetarian and vegan food. The food was cooked so well with such good flavour and perfectly spiced. Very accommodating, friendly staff, great service and wonderfully tasty food. Look forward to visiting again. Many thanks.

I can't recommend this place enough, the food is incredible (I recommend the Chaat Platter and the Brocolli Manchurian enough).

Great place nice people really good vegan food

What an absolute revelation! A truly magnificent indian vegan meal culminating in utterly delicious vegan Cheese Cake. The Bhel was great but the Masala Dhosa and Channa Masala were truly out of this world - absolute perfection The service cleanliness and overall ambiance were just superb. Unmissable !!

The most lovely place!! Delicious food and such lovely staff, we will definitely be coming back!

The tofu curry was far too sweet. I think they put sugar in their curries which is not necessary

The best indian food i have eaten in years i am no vegetarian but this was a different level every dish was superb highly recommend cant believe there us no meat in the Beetroot curry was sublime

The finest restaurant on the planet. It’s simply my that good. I could eat the whole menu. I’m certainly giving it my best shot!!

Worst food ever tasted and the quantity is too small for the amount .

First time ordering food from this restaurant. Meal was superb.

Best vegan recipes I have seen so far 😋

One of the best vegan restaurants if not the best in the Greater Manchester area. Food is amazing, service is friendly and prompt. The atmosphere can be improved but with food this amazing, I really don't care much.

Great vegan food, massive selection of vastly different styles of Indian food, top notch.

First time there this evening and can't wait to go back. Food was amazing!

Every time we come here we enjoy the great ambience and friendly service. The food is excellent. Every dish weve had had been outstanding. I love the pineapple tandoori

Food is tasty. Ambience is good.
