Quality Indian restaurant in heart of South East London. Food is beautifully cooked and everything clean and on point. They are attentive, polite, quick. Food was fresh and very tasty and not to mention this place looks like a wedding venue in the back. Beautiful, beautiful!!! Cannot wait to go back.

Birthday dinner for my wife. Great food. I like the feel of the restaurant. They do an assortment of complimentary taster through out the meal. The quality of the food is high. Flavours are on point. Book to avoid disappointment. There is no retainer charged for booking which I appreciate. Text keep you up to date and reminds you.

Indian food done beautifully. Initially I was skeptical about the food, but can I say that I was proven soo wrong. THE FOOD WAS AMAZING. AMBIENCE WAS WELCOMING, STAFF ALSO FRIENDLY TOO. BROCKLEY RISE LOCAL...

Food was superb, cocktails as good as 5 star hotels on park lane. Service was friendly. Very happy to have this pocket of Indian magic near where we live. We don’t go often enough.

Great food at an amazing price! All the dishes were good except one which was really weird - The Baby Aubergine side dish. Our waiter was amazing and attentive and gave our babies a little play pack. The only issue was we had a very bad start. Took us almost 15 mins to get seated in a very empty 6pm restaurant. We didnt make a booking and was told there was availability but we had to give up the table by 7.30pm which we said wasnt an issue. We were told to sit by the waiting area by the front desk, 1 min later someone came to bring us to a corner 6 seater table. We asked for 2 high chairs. They didnt come with it for 3 mins. Then we were told not to worry, we were getting a change of table to a much bigger space. 4 mins later we were brought to another corner in the tent area but were told to sit at a 2 seater table with the 2 high chairs next to the table but without any table space. We mentioned that its a bit too squeezy and could we pls have a 4 seater at least. They took another 7 mins to sort out a table for us but giving us dirty looks the whole time. Just because of this, I dont think I will return. I felt extremely unwelcomed with the babies.

You really cant describe this as an Indian restaurant as the food is so very different. The food and service are both quite exceptional, if not unique. Not cheap but good value.

Having been recommended by numerous people to try this place out - we went as a family and the food was great. We were shown to our table by a friendly member of staff. The table was right at the very back - by the door to the kitchen. It wasn’t too bad but next time all add a note to my reservation to avoid that spot. We had to ask for a wine menu and weren’t given much time to decide our main course - but having said that it was 9pm and perhaps it was a busy night.There was a good atmosphere with lots of customers as almost every table was occupied. The meal arrived in good time and everyone enjoyed what they had ordered. It might be worth knowing that the ‘hotness’ of each dish is indicated by 1 or 2 tigers on the menus. We found that even the dishes without an indication were reasonably hot. I’d perhaps ask the waiter for the mildest dish next time, rather than relying on the indications on the menus. But that is just personal preference!Thank you for an enjoyable experience.For 5*’s - the waiting staff would have to be a little calmer and friendlier.

Stunning food! Wonderful atmosphere to enjoy some delicious cocktails and fantastic food! I tried the cool green tea punch! Wow.. I loved that cocktail.

It was our first visit to Babur and I must say food is one of the best. There are limited options of vegetarian mains but we tried mostly all of the options on our table. Food was flavourful and nicely presented.However our evening was spoiled by poor service and rude attitude of waiter serving us.I would rather go for a place with mediocre food but better service.

The food was incredible, flavours were amazing. Get a Signature Cocktail, you won’t be disappointed. All the staff were wonderful and welcoming.

Amazing food and ambiance. Would really recommend coming here. We had a great time and cant wait to come back and try out more of the dishes!

Good customer service food was lovely especially the lamb

This is probably my favourite restaurant. The food is just ridiculously tasty plus they have great beer. Staff are lovely and a nice ambience especially with the new outside gazebo. We have been coming for years and will continue to do so. Cheers Babur

They have very filling delicious food. I also had a bourbon which had a bit of an off after taste but overall this is a great place to go with lots of people.

SE London institution. Fantastic food and fabulous service. Dont miss out on the curry martini!

Local gem. Family have been going to Babur since they opened in ‘85.Wonderful food and amazing service. Great cocktails (and mocktails!) too.Chilli cheese naan might just be the best I’ve ever had!

Wonderful Indian restaurant. Great food with some delicious veggie options. Not your classic curry house, everything on the menu offers a tailored wine pairing.

Must visit for Indian food. But drinks surprised us - Indian flavored, diverse, vibrant and close to perfect.

We’d read good things and this place did not disappoint. Amazing food, perfectly conceived, flavoured and cooked. The thali was incredible!

Delicious food, as always! Could do with more vegetarian and vegan options.Geared up for social distancing. :-)

We had an amazing meal here, Indian food elevated but still authentic. Cocktails were really good too

Really excellent food and service. Had the vegetarian thali and the wife had a grilled pomfret (fish). Would definitely come again!

Food and wine excellent, service friendly and efficient, and a great atmosphere.Were infrequent visitors to the Babur, but have been going since the 90s. The food is wonderful - interesting and well presented starters, and main courses you wont find in any normal UK Indian restaurant - no base sauce plus chicken/lamb/tofu/prawns options here.The food is prepared with care and attention, and is delicious. There are pescatarian, diary free, vegetarian and vegan options, and the menu is available online.The interior was revamped several years ago and is now bare brick, but has a warm intimate feel. We were lucky enough this time to be seated in the summer marquee, which reminded me pleasantly of a wedding reception.We were in the last sitting, and were served promptly, after a slight wait for a table.Starters are around £8, mains £16, wine from £24 upwards (check out the bin ends section of the wine list for good wine at good prices), and cocktails around £9.Covid precautions were in place, with staff wearing gloves and masks, and a sanitiser at the entrance, but restaurant dining is an inherently risky business if you want to avoid catching it (or infecting others). Chairs and tables were being wiped after use, but Im not sure if the surfaces were getting the sanitiser for the minimum time the solutions need for them to work.

Amazing restaurant wonderful food, wine and service. Cant wait for the tasting menu to return in September!

The food was really good, one of the good indian food Ive had in London, but the service and the servers were so unwelcoming, so rude! They didnt have time to serve properly, specially some of them, while I was speaking, they just left mid way, a very bad expirience and would not like to come back. McDonalds has better service!

An exciting Indian flavour experience. We had the 5 course tasting menu with matched wines. Absolutely fabulous!

The best Indian in the area, I would highly recommend!

What a delicious meal!Had the five course tasting menu with my partner (and also the scallops too which were lovely)Would recommend. Shame I can only give 5 stars!

Cosy, classy atmosphere. Fantastic Indian food with a lot of unique dishes and wine pairings provided. The mixed drinks are strong and delicious. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable.

Fantastic lunch experience today! The first lunch out since lock down started and it didnt disappoint. The set meal had excellent choices and the cocktail list had some inventive options.

An overated Indian restaurant. The food quality is very average at times limited in taste and choice. The moctails full of sugar not the subtle blend required. Very poor unengaging service. Prices are at the higher end but not justified for what you get for it. There are better Indian restaurants serving a la carte and buffet style food. Avoid

Really great Indian restaurant. The thali was sublime and great value for many, and lots of choice for veggie, pesca and vegans.

A real gem of a place. Authentic dishes with an twist of originality. The 4 course taster menu is a delight with accompanying wine(s). Had to cave in and extend to 5 courses for dessert with liquor, what a good decision and a truly remarkable finish to a splendid meal/evening. Known about this place for 10 years wished i hadnt taken so long...to enter. Wont be long before we go back ☺️. On a par with famous chef names for me Gordon Ramsey etc. Super 🤗 effort team!!

Amazing food, and the cocktails are absolutely exceptional (Buffalo Smoke particularly).

Always maintains the usual high standards, despite the lock downs. Last night was no exception: great food and polite service.

Brilliant brilliant cocktails. And that food well. Absolutely exceptional.

Had a great experience in here with my daughter. The food arrives quickly and the customer service is just awesome. Prices are fair.

One of the worst Indian takeaways I have ever had. There were multiple hairs found in the dishes, the flavour balance was a miss, the aubergine dish more oil than flavour, the mix veggies canned. If I could give it a zero I would. I write this review to save someone else from a terrible takeaway mistake.

Excellent food and ambience. Very friendly staff.

Ultimate food with brilliant cocktails❤️Love to pop in every time i visit near by😍

Incredible food. Indian food taken to another level. It wont disappoint. Obviously the price is in relation to the high quality.

If you want to be a bit fancy pants and love and Indian, this is the place! Myself and my friend are vegan and LOVED the menu, it is on the pricey side, but hey! It was delicious. As an avid traveller and having been in India many-a-time, I can hand on heart say how yummy all the flavours are and authentic it is. Dosa was particularly delightful and Thali!

Great tasting food, friendly and helpful staff, super lunch time experience, would definitely recommend.

Wow! What an amazing gem of a restaurant. Possibly the best Indian food Ive had. Highly recommend a visit.

I love this place. Food, service and atmosphere all excellent!

Biryani here is really good 😋

Fantastic food and great service.

Delicious food and atmosphere. We will definitely return

More fabulous than ever.

Slightly surprised to get our starters & main dishes at the same time & on the same plate! Food not quite up to the standard of my last visit.

Most delicious lunch time menu.

Oh what a place! Delicious food, great mood and very very friendly staff! Do not hesitate to book a table! Perfect for dates or small groups.

Absolutely fantastic! Highly recommended. We also ordered the restaurant premium delivery and they forgot something, but realised, rang me and rectified within minutes. Top service

Excellent venue and well prepared for social distancing.The food (I had the lamb) was good but dont go there hungry, because I thought the quantities are not generous.For dessert I had the fruit crumble, nice, but very sweet.The presentation of your meal is excellent and the service is very good.An overall pleasant experience 7/10. Meal for 2 with beer and dessert £70 .

Lovely food, nice cocktails, quick service, friendly staff. Its not often you find swordfish and monkfish on the menu.

Great food and amazing atmosphere, especially the marquee

Friendly attentive staff. Food was delicious

Gorgeous food and great service.

Great food , everything was delicious. We went on the first day after lockdown restrictions were eased, so I think they were still setting up after being closed for a month or so but the service was still very good. Cocktails are also unique and very good specially old Monk old fashioned

Babur is a staple in the south London community. I’ll hear no different.

A gem in the local SE community. Stunningly good value tasting menu.

Service good food good prices good what more could you want

The service, menu choice and food were all good. Id say the only criticism is the interior looks dated and does not suit an award winning. Nice to go to a fine dining restaurant that is it not in central London.

Excellent food and really good service.

Excellent food, truly cuisine from all parts of South Asia, keep up the good work 👍🏽

This place never disappoints. They have fresh food for reasonable rates, there no long wait even when the spot is packed.

Absolutely fantastic, best Indian restaurant I know

Amazing tasting menu and excellent service, seriously one of the best meals ever

Incredible food and awesome service! Definitely go for the 5 set menu and get some cocktails. 🍸

Service was second to none, very attentive without being at all over-the-top. We each ordered the vegetarian thali, all components of which were delicious, cocktails and wine - both lists were extensive and we were very happy with the choices we made. If youre looking for a slightly more upscale Indian dining experience, Babur is highly recommended.

We enjoyed our very tasty takeaway. One of the better Indian takeaways in the area.

Came across this place whilst researching a place that had something different. This is one of the best Indians I have ever had - we got two orders in a week as it was so good. The Monkfish tail they do was one of the best things I have eaten anywhere. Even with the limits of the lockdown the staff are helpful and attentive. As soon as we are out of the lockdown I will be going there in person!

Im was at the chandos,never been there,Google maps dont know where I am when I am there,Any restaurant that make the waiter clean the windows before they open aint right.,Pay a window cleaner an get the job done properly,Been watching the waiter cleaning windows for years,Help the community by giving jobs out to local window cleaners,not a waiter who is a waiter. DER!!

Really good curry. Theyve got a takeaway menu of the basic dishes that you already know, but theres also a menu of more complicated (and more expensive) very delicious meals if you want something more interesting. You can get the restaurant ones delivered too.

Really lovely evening. The service was amazing and food was ordered and to our table within 20 minutes! Would give 5 stars but the chairs were uncomfortable...sounds silly but made a difference to how long we stayed. Still I would definitely recommend and go back 😊

We went for the 5 courses tasting menu. Everything we tried was excellent, great cocktails, amazing food and good service. Not extremely cheap but we will definitely go again. Strongly recommended

Ordered this on Saturday night. Genuinely the best Indian takeaway I have ever had. Even came delivered in their own branded box. The food was really fresh and not greasy like you find a lot of places to be. Flavours were amazing. I especially recommend the Chicken Chettinad. Will definitely go back to again.

Beautiful food, good and friendly service. Wine list works as well. The takeaway menu is extensive and the range is perfect

Amazing restaurant with amazing food. One of my new favourite restaurants in London. Really lovely, helpful staff as well. Bit pricey but worth every penny! Cant wait to go back!

The best Indian takeaway we have ever had. Had for the first time tonight - just superb. Lots more food than I expected (perhaps we over-ordered). Particularly recommend the amazing dal.

Delicious food, brilliant service

Amazing tasting menu with paired wines. Should have a Michelin star. Excellent service too

Its ok. Not really an indian. Service was a bit haphazard and slow. Food is rather expensive and all tasted bland and the same. Not enough flavour or wow factor.... menu was rather limited. Portions are on the small side. Not sure i will go back. £3 for a cup of tea!

Such good Indian food...restaurant is great but honestly take away is so good too and obviously perfect right now. We get the Dahl makani side, x2 pishawari nan (don’t bother with the paratha), sag paneer, chicken tikka main and a Pathia Puree G and maybe a potion of samosa to start. It’s so perfect, I have always liked Indian take away and this is everything you want flavour wise from an Indian take out but with the quality dial turned up to 11. As you can tell I have just finished eating mine and I am still glowing from it...there is a bit left that I have put in the fridge that I could eat right now but I will leave for breakfast me thinks.

Just received our order and it was great! Delivered on time, good quality meat, great flavours, and not greasy. We have FINALLY found our “go to” Indian takeaway. You have a new regular customer. Thank you for delivering to se6 🙏 😊

The best Indian restaurant I have ever been to. Different.

Excellent food and service

Really enjoyed the meal here. The staff were attentive and the food was delicous. The portions were great and everything arrived in good time.

Tasty currys but why on earth do they use dry chicken breast for the curries!? Ruins what would have been an excellent meal.

Amazing food and excellent service.

Lovely thx a lot

Great food! Slightly too expensive, and service was slow. But great food and décor made the night!

Without a doubt the best Indian cuisine I have ever had. The scallops melted in your mouth, the swordfish was delicious and the marinated lamb shoulder was divine.

Amazing food. Great service and good distancing on their new tent. The baby aubergine dish is unbelievable.

11/10 service. Amazing food. Friendly and attentive staff. One of my favourite restaurants!

High end indian cuisine, excellent range of game and fish dishes, sensitive and well chosen wine list and some stonking cocktails. Try the currytini.

Came here for the first time on Friday 17th July 2020, having used the Babur takeaway many times I was expecting to see a similar menu but was surprised to see something completely different.We had vegetarian thali as a main dish between two of us and it was very filling, the food was amazing.The staff were very friendly and helpful and we will definitely be back to try something new.

Good indian food. Nicely packaged for takeaway. NO SPILLAGE!

What a wonderful restaurant, the service is attentive, friendly and helpful.The food is fantastic, fresh, and full of flavour.Just a warning, you need to starve all day before going to eat here as there is plenty of food.
