Takeaway review: Bombay Pantry

For ages now, people have been telling me to try out The Bombay Pantry, an Indian takeaway with seven branches around Dublin.
So finally! I picked up a takeaway for four. Against our better judgment, we got some rather misguided Spicy fish cakes (€4.95) to start. After one bite each we threw them to the cat. Not surprisingly, she snubbed them.
The rest of the meal was much, much better. The chicken korma (€8.50), with an amazingly well-balanced and delicate sauce, was perfect for my friend Cat. The murg chutney(€8.50) – a hot, sweet and sour chicken dish cooked with mango, chutney, ginger, black pepper and yogurt, and garnished with cashews and almonds – was a real mouth sensation, and I can’t imagine how they could possibly have improved this dish. The naan, a side that’s surprisingly easy to mess up, was hot, fresh, and light. The total cost for one starter, four mains, and three sides was just €43.80.
Bombay Pantry has deservedly built up a great reputation. Most of the meals are around the €8 mark, which is great value for one of the very best Indian eateries in the country. There’s always a new special on the menu and lots of great value deals:
- Choice of selected main with rice and naan – €8
- Value deal for two – €22.50
- Set menu for two – starters, mains, and sides – €28
- Set menu for four – starters, mains and sides – €54/ €62
- Family meal deal – 4-5 persons – €39.50
If you haven’t already tried it out, give it a go!
