Customers rave about the mixed kebab, a showcase of chicken tikka, lamb tikka, and sheek kebab enveloped in naan, all smothered in Madras sauce—it's a must-try. The staff are frequently praised for their friendliness and attentiveness, creating a relaxed atmosphere that enhances the dining experience. Additionally, the generous portions at reasonable prices make it a beloved spot in the community. Freshly cooked meals with an open kitchen view allow patrons to watch the magic happen, adding to the overall enjoyment. The lovely touch of a community-oriented establishment where every meal feels like a celebration also makes it stand out.
Most Disliked
While many love the experience at Shapla, a few have mentioned the cash-only payment policy as a minor inconvenience, especially in today's digital age. Some also wish for a broader delivery range to enjoy Shapla's delights at home without the drive. Additionally, a handful of patrons noted that weekends can get quite busy, leading to waits during peak dinner hours. These minor drawbacks, however, do not overshadow the overall satisfaction of the meals served at this beloved takeaway.

I heard good things about this place so I decided to do the 35 mile round journey. It was well worth it. I had the mixed kebab (Chicken tikka, Lamb tikka, Sheek kebab and onion bhaji in Madras sauce rolled in a naan bread). WOW. Everything was perfect. Its great to find somewhere that is still collection only and hasnt been ruined by a delivery service resulting in cutting corners. The owner is a gentleman as well. I will be going back again. Top marks.
