Saffron Indian Takeaway in Doncaster

Ordered a takeaway and the food was inedible. Supposed to be chicken but it wasn’t like any chicken I’ve ever had.

The food was inedible. The meat was not chicken as ordered and it all went in the bin.

Recently started ordering here and can say I’m never going back. Everything is delivered fresh and with good quantity. Bursting full of flavour, can not recommend enough 😍

driver gave my order to someone else, saying someone approached him mentioning the takeaway name and my order number. clearly lying to cover the fact he didn't do proper checks.

Ordered at 7:30pm, said it would be delivered by 8:40. Rung to chase and they said it was leaving them now, we live 15 mins away if that. Half an hour later still wasn’t here so rung again to be told that the driver was pulling into the estate as we speak and they don’t do refunds of any kind but they have extra poppadoms in for us. Had to ring again 6 minutes later as it still wasn’t here. All in all, took over 2 hours to come and we didn’t get any poppadoms! Never again

order was best part of 2hours late. 90 percent cold and tasted of very little.

From order to received food over 2 hours! Was estimated 1 hour to 1hr 20mins Rang to find out where food was, was told be there in 9-10 mins but still took a further 30minutes - Food luke warm and korma sauce runny - Not impressed

hard to leave a review on the taste. when never turned up. or if it does, hope microwave works

Finally received my order.. nearly 3 hours after ordering. I rung up multiple times. at one point, I asked to speak to the manager, got told he was in the delivery car, the delivery driver, of course, knew nothing about that (he wasn't the manager). absolutely disgusted with the customer service and delivery time, and being lied too! walking to India and back for a curry would have been quicker. Never again! the food was lukewarm at best and average. shocking. AVOID!

Food was ordered at 7.10 with an estimated time of delivery of 8.15-8.35. Had a message at approximately 9pm to say the courier was on the way. At 9.30, I rang to find out what was happening and was told the driver always 4-5 minutes away. The order eventually arrived at 9.50. 2 and half hours after it had been ordered. When the food finally arrived, it was cold and had to be reheated. I noticed on the app, it says that food was delivered at 8.20 which was not accurate whatsoever!

Over an hour and a half late so was 2 and a half hours to arrive tandoori naan was lovely rest of food was luke warm and driver left gate wide open when sign clearly say please close as we have a dog not great service and we spent nearly £60 so won’t be a returning customer

Amazing food as always but an hour way over delivery time and 2 phone calls later it came cold so had to nuke it for 2mins

the food is usually always great quality but the delivery is shocking everytime so so late!

Nice good but not great service

The food wasn’t great though. The biryani had Brussel sprouts in which I thought was strange. The food was under seasoned, both the lamb biryani and veg biryani lacked a lot of flavour. The fried egg was just an over boiled egg. And the salad warm Because it was in the same container as the rice. The delivery was a few minutes late but that’s fine.

all these years never tried it, glad I did nice and hot, 1 of best I've had

very late and food was cold so unable to eat.

Absolutely gorgeous food! So tasty and delicious! Best around by far!

Fantastic meal and great prices too. Everything was fresh and tasted divine.

Delicious meal tonight. Tasty meals!

Food arrived 30 minutes late and was luke warm so had to be reheated. Had to chase with the restaurant a couple of times as was initially told 5 mins and had to ring back 15 mins later to be told it'll be 2 mins. It's a shame our experience this time was poor because it's our 2nd time ordering after we really enjoyed the 1st :(

cold , late and a waste of money very poor quality

food was in general very nice. spicey chips were soggy but tasty. curry dishes were good, hot and loads of meat. complimentary poppadoms and dips too. if on time and chips were better it would be full stars. would try ordering again

Food was half an hour late, while the food wasn't stone cold it wasn't as hot as it should have been.

The food is usually good but the delivery is always an issue. Tonight it was an hour late. The worst food we’ve ever had from there and it was flat cold. Ho and the driver delivers at 22:29 an hour late blaring music out! Shocking service today

the lamb balti was really nice and the rice unfortunately the nan's and onion bajis was cold but the lamb was lovely. only issue delivery time as we are not that far away

Food was unfortunately cold and the curry was watery normally food is lovely so quiet surprised and disappointed

Best Indian food I’ve had for a while.

Most disgusting takeaway I’ve ever tasted korma was curdled and the tikka was full of water the korma tasted rotten do not buy it’s the biggest waste of money

Expected 20.05 arrived 20.56. I can say that the customer service is diabolical, I would have never ordered from here if I knew this was the case . I won't order here again. The food is the best out of a bad bunch it is MID I have to add salt.

The food is cooked will you wait, or it can be delivered. The food is very good.

New driver took it to the wrong address but management sorted it and sent a new one with extras. Thank you so much , will always carry on ordering from you 😊

Lovely food! Placed a huge order for my daughter’s birthday, everything tasted divine with huge quantities. Flavour explosion, even gave complimentary items with the order. Will be back soon!

Food was very disappointing and bland

This is the worst delivery time and no real apology. Should have sent it back .however always nice food .

the food arrived cold and was tasteless curries very bland like out off a tin the chips was hard and only a handful will not ordered again

rice was lovely curry have no taste doesn't even taste of Tika it tasted powdery like shop bought I think the lamb chops were a little bit deer too expensive two for four pound eighty nothing special either I could have cooked better at home

Chicken jalfrezi tasted full of flavour. Pilau rice cooked well and aromatic. The lady who delivered our food was polite. Just eat app easy to navigate and will definitely be using Saffron again!

Really bland food, smelt off honestly. Forgot items & late

didn’t even turn up never using these again

worst indian we have ever tried, no flavour in the keema naan or bajis, currys was disgusting, had better micro meals

Can’t recommend enough! Delicious meals with amazing flavours!!

Arrived on time. Excellent quality food with huge quantities. Polite driver

love the food it the best in Doncaster I would not go anyone else

Delicious meal. Excellent curries and rices!!!

the food was amazing deffo order again

Delivery over an hour late. The food had been ordered two hours ahead and they still couldn’t on time. The food was pretty good

Arrived in perfect timing. Delicious food!

Food was great however it did come later than expected. I would however order from Saffron again.

Absolutely love the food from Saffron, maybe they were busy tonight , a little late but the food was warm enough and great

Delicious meal arrived promptly

Absolute joke of a place. Rang to ask how long got told 10 minutes rang 20 minutes later to be told 10 minutes again. It’s been 35 minutes and still no food!!

beautiful as usual. really great food

Food was appalling, it arrived cold and was really bland.

Food was labelled as delivered on just eat when no food had arrived . We called the restaurant and they said it was a minute away. 15 minutes later we called again and they said no no 1 minute away the food then arrived 20 minutes later. Once we got the food it was freezing cold so not edible and the lamb pasanda smelt like it was gone off food and had a consistency of curdled milk.

Changed delivery time but was worth the extra half hour wait. 1st time ordering from here ad food was lovely. Good price too. We will order from here again x

Came on time and the flavour and taste of the dishes were excellent

The chicken tikka jalfrezi was very tasty. Two samosas included which was a nice surprise.

My first time ordering here and, Wow! what a beautiful meal, from start to finish loved every bit. Thank You Very Much X

Prompt service, fantastic quality of food. Can’t complain about anything!

The food was delivered over an hour late and although warm, it definitely felt it had been cooling off while being delivered, other than that the food was great but delivery was unfortunately a little disappointing.

If ya hungry and you want a meal within a hour don’t bother ordering from here 2 hours later and I’m still waiting it’s ridiculous

Arrived promptly and tasted fabulous

First time trying and didn’t look at reviews before ordering. Have to say our experience was a good one. Food was tasty and there was plenty of it. Thanks for not letting us down.

Starters were cold as not in foil container just in paper bag. Main meal rice was hot but sauce Luke warm had to reheat in microwave

Well over an hour late than the eta … app was set to delivered on the due time …. Called and they said it would be next delivery . 45 mins later still no food …. Called again to be told driver left 5 mins ago and the app must have been set to delivered by mistake … likely story …15 mins later still no food . Worst service ever never again

Ordered the set meal for one which was good value delivery was about 10 minutes late which is acceptable nice friendly delivery driver. I thought the quality of the food wasn't good the onion salad wasn't cut very fine, the onion bhajis were bland and stodgy the pilau rice was nice and well cooked but the chicken dopiaza was lacking flavour but there was plenty of chicken in it. If I order from here again I think I would probably order of the menu and not the set meal.

Chicken wings tasteless like they’ve been left on a bbq 24 hours. Very dry and black.

Trying Saffron for the first time after hearing good feedback from family and friends. Every item we ordered tasted authentic and fresh. Will definitely be ordering from here regularly. Will recommend.

The food arrived on time and was piping hot 👍 delicious food!

Moved to Askern 1 year ago tried lots of Indian take away and all are bad some using Chinese tasting currys just wrong ……. Apart from been late the food was the best most athletic tasting food in South Yorkshire customer for life keep it up boys !!!!!!!!

Top notch fodder! Vinda so good I’ve got TP in the freezer for the morning

Placed a delivery order for my daughter’s birthday. We tried a variety of different meals and everything we ordered tasted divine and packed full of flavour. Driver was polite and also arrived piping hot. Thanks guys!

Not great food tbh, such a shame

30 mins late, same last week. Call and they are rude.

Pre ordered for 6.30pm. At 6.35pm it said delivered on the app but it wasn’t here. Called the restaurant and they told me 5mins. It didn’t arrive until gone 7pm.

Delicious food which arrived on time. Friendly driver. Will definitely recommend!!!

The medium chicken curry had never seen any spices to it let alone added to it, very thick and creamy aswell the chicken itself and rice wasn’t to bad shame the sauce let it down, will not be ordering again

Just eat said delivered 20 minutes ago, still hasn't even left the takeaway, there's 'some issue with the delivery driver' which upon reading other reviews seems to be a common excuse. Not holding my breath that it will actually ever turn up.

The food from here is always lovely and very tasty

Ordered a delivery at 7:15pm , told us delivery would be 1 hour maximum, received a delivery from just eat saying the food had been delivered @ 8:30pm , rang to see where it was , apparently was on its way , 9pm came still no delivery , gave them another call to be told the food was just been prepared and would be with us within the hour !!!! Absolutely shocking service !!!! Won’t use these ever again

Hesitant to order as previous delivery late, however food tasted fresh and full of flavour upon tasting and food was delivered within the allocated timing.

Not impressed by the food unfortunately. Generous portions of curry, but Small onion bhajis, made of mostly the spiced batter inside rather than onion, so very stodgy & not particularly nice. Popadoms had an unpleasant taste where oil likely needs changing so went in bin - in fairness these were given free though. Such a shame, but worth a try.

food took 2 hours to arrive, bhuna wasn't very good

Food was lovely but had to ring to find out where it was after we got message to say it had been delivered.

Never received, despite them giving themselves a two hour window to prepare and deliver the food. The staff are awful, incredibly rude and lied about the food being out for delivery.

Not even received my order!!!!!

very tasty food, ordered a few times now and everything is always spot on

Pretty good meal tonight! Everything tasted fresh and full of flavour!

Woman on the phone was no help and just wanted to get off the phone. The food took over 2 hours to come.

it was warmer this time and not cold like last time

My order is over a hour long and I have not got my food yet

Delivery driver was friendly and found the house first time! Thank you

Very nice and good value for money, some extras thrown in for free too. Cheers guys

Great meal tonight, everyone loved it!!!

Food cold ..deffo had others orders Used to be good shocking for delivery times of late

Marked it delivered when it hadn’t left the restaurant and it tasted cold and undercooked

the food wasn’t nice very bland didn’t taste like much
