The Mint House - Ross on Wye — Restaurant in England

We arrived late on Saturday night in the middle of November (2024), with about an hour until the restaurant was due to close, so in all fairness to the guys it was a bit rushed.

The service unsurprisingly was really prompt. No sooner had we ordered and the menus had been collected then our poppadoms arrived; six between the three of us with four sauces & dips including a very sweet & a little spicy sauce I'd never had before; but it was very nice.

We ordered three mains, mine and garlic chilli chicken rated on the menu with one 🌶, which turned out to be absolutely correct..just the right amount of green chilli, plenty of nicely cooked and marinated chicken in a deep tomato based sauce. A really nice dish.

I had a keema naan and pilau rice. The rice was a little dry but the naan bread was really good, plenty of spiced meat in really tasty bread, plus it was a good sized portion. The others in our party had similar accompanied by a couple of cokes, whilst I had a bottle of cobra.

So overall not a bad meal, a bit rushed and with only two other people dining it was lacking on atmosphere. Price wise, I thought it was a little dear, coming in at just over £72, just under £80 with a tip. Would I go back, yes, my main was really nice and was cooked just right. Not faults with it. Plus the staff were all very polite and smartly dressed in black shirts with the restaurant name on.

Unfortunately a bit of a warning about one of the Indian takeaways in Ross On Wye. The Mint House had a good reputation and we have eaten food from there before. It’s my birthday and we thought let’s have a takeaway. Went online ordered what we wanted, made the payment and received an email saying that the payment had gone through.When we arrived to pick up the food, my phone pinged and said the restaurant had cancelled the order. We went inside to find out what was happening and they were really, really , really unhelpful. What had happened was they don’t turn their machine on before they open and so any orders that you may have placed just ping back, but this is the really irritating bit, once you’ve paid your money you don’t get it back for five days. The manager who refused to come and speak to us in person said over the phone we will give you 20% off but you will need to pay again and then if you don’t get your money back, come and talk to us. So basically for a not too bad but not a brilliant Indian takeaway we going to be charged £120 of our money upfront. So to be honest, I wouldn’t go and spend my money there again, because I think it’s a bit of a scam. You have...

We came back for another break away and had to return to the mint house for a meal. Firstly I was surprised that they remembered us after so long and even asked after our children and grandchildren. We both decided to tried something we had never had before and I have to say, we were so glad we did. Kam the waiter chose the dishes for us and he chose well. The meat was tender in booth dishes full of flavours and as always super fresh. Just wish they would move to coventry. Staff as always exceptionally friendly and a joy to visit again. I must visit.
