Thaal Indian Restaurant — Restaurant in Barnsley

A nice middle of the road Indian that strikes me as being ran by someone who really cares, but needs to delegate things to others. For instance the building is lovely, and some areas of the interior are really nice (others are average), but the exterior needs a repaint, the car park needs surfacing or similar, and the patio areas need weeding! Put it this way if you passed when it wasn't open it looks like it's been shut and abandoned 6 months.

Sort those bits out and get rid of your blue LEDs outside and the colour changing LEDs inside (don't lower yourself to that cheap tacky Indian look) and you've got a nice classy Indian.

Minor point: do a check round the building for bulbs that are out as I noticed a few, and also get rid of the single ceiling spotlight bulb in the top area of the restaurant. It blinds you if you sit on the table it shines on, and makes you feel like you're in full view of...

I visited this place yesterday and received the worst service I have ever had in a restaurant. The Staff were unhelpful, we were left without drinks for 30 mins and when we approached the bar were told to sit down as its table service. The chef wasn't willing to attempt to cook anything for a vegan therefore they were left without a meal, i mean how hard is it to cook some curried vegetables at the very least but they just said no! They brought no cutlery out for the main so I ate my curry with a spoon as again there were no staff around. Poor service, would never visit again and wouldn't recommend, there as far superior Indian restaurants in Barnsley with excellent service and food, dont waste your...
