Poor quality products and cooked very badly quite worrying as it was our favourite Indian but won’t be ordering again until they sort out their standards

The food is so fresh and flavoursome. As a family we have always enjoyed the food .

The food was extremely good. We had a madras and a vindaloo, both were very tasty, the madras was delicious! The staff were friendly and the food was prepared quickly. I would highly recommend this place. It’s the best Indian food we have tried in the area.

I ordered from here once when passing by though somehow the number I rang and ordered from went to another outlet nearby with a similar name. He advised me of this as he didn’t receive such an order and helped rectify the issue though didn’t need to and could have just made the order and money on it himself but advised going to the other outlet as to honour the order and avoid a loss for them which was good of him

Passable as everywhere else was shut on a Tuesday, it was 9pm and we had been travelling and not eaten since lunch. It filled a gap but was pretty ropey to be fair. Guy preparing food was eating chips out of the fryer basket with his fingers whilst prepping people’s kebabs and curries… Not great

Tl;dr – Incredible & delicious curry, very good value for money, great portion sizes, quick turnaround times, fantastic meat:sauce ratios, warm and personable staff. You can literally see the attention they give to every meal, as they make it.
Holmfirth, Newcastle, Gateshead, Leeds, Bradford, London. Out of all of these places I’ve lived and had curries in over the last 22~ years, B Medina in New Mill remains my benchmark for an incredible Indian takeaway.
I’ve been going to B Medina for decades, since I wasn’t tall enough to see over the counter, and over the last 20 years the quality of their food has remained exceptionally (and consistently) high. Over the course of several years, I’ve made my way through nearly the whole menu.
Is there an element of nostalgia at play? Is it really ‘that good’? Well, after it being too long since my last curry from B Medina, I swung by for a Chicken Tikka Naan whilst I was in the area. Deep red and perfectly spiced curry, wrapped in a plain naan, with a side order of mint yoghurt.
No, and yes. It really is that good.
Each dish is richly spiced and seasoned, fragrant, fresh, and delicious. Sometimes, there’s some excess oil, dependent on the dish. That said, this is no more or less than anywhere else I have been to, and doesn’t detract from the dish.
The kitchen (which you can see as soon as you walk in) is spotless, and the staff take great pride in what they make. It’s a welcome change from many other takeaways, where the kitchen is often hidden away, and the only interaction option you have whilst you wait is re-reading the menu you’ve just spent the last 10 minutes working through.
Overall I would rate B Medina 6/5 if I could.
It’s my benchmark, my favourite takeaway, and a place with a deep connection to growing up. It will possibly become your regular place (if it isn’t already), and if it is? I can only be envious.

2 amazing veggie curries, tasted gorgeous, delivered within 45 mins during Euros football match! Great service at a really challenging time! I will definitely be back soon!

Ordered 4 curries, 2 naan and chips. Every curry was ridiculously sweet like it had sugar or mango added. The biryani was also very spicy which it shouldn’t be. Naan bread was thick and stodgy. Chips massively over salted. Lots of oil leaking from curry cartoons, flooding box we were given it all in. Had to be one of the worst curries we’ve had. It went in the bin and needless to say we won’t be back.
