The Downsman - Crawley

I visited this place in April 2018 and food was ok,so I thought let’s give it a try again with my mates on Saturday.. Biriyani excellent well done.. Lamb Bhuna poor same rating as 2018 lamb stew in curry sauce.. Chicken madras absolutely awful.. Let’s move on.. Kababs excellent and tasty .. Naan brilliant.. Chicken tikka very good.. This pace failed the curry test, Bbq dish were good.. But curry well disappointed with the way they were made stew in curry sauce.. Price bit expensive for the quality of food.. So my 2018 visit wasn’t a great experience and 2022 is no better.. Apologies for the honest feedback..

My word what has happened to this place???I don't eat a lot, but portions were small, my meal certainly wasn't what it said it was, music was way to loud, everyone was shouting to be heard on top of that noise the TV's were also on. It's a shame the food used to be brilliant, certainly won't be going here again .

We had a takeout, food brilliant, chicken biryani and husbands balti was great. Food arrived warm and on time. First time we used this indian.

I ordered a selection of food on sat 2nd jan as it was my birthday . One of the meals I ordered was the burger fries and slaw all the food was delicious and piping hot when delivered the only thing was the slaw was missing was disappointed but but like I said the rest of the food was amazing will defo use the downsman again .

Probably best pub in sussex. Made even better by the barmaid Nicole, actually think I’ve fallen in love her
