Rasoi Cottage

Rasoi Cottage is a much-loved Indian restaurant and takeaway in the Oakenshaw area of Redditch, blending classic English-Indian curry-house cooking with a handful of regional Bangladeshi specials. The kitchen has a real local reputation, and dishes like the much-praised Chicken Pathia, balancing sweet, sour and spice, sit alongside fragrant biryanis, tandoori grills and plenty of vegetarian options. It is a proper family-friendly spot with parking, equally happy taking a sit-down booking or packing up a takeaway to enjoy at home.

The praise is remarkably consistent: it is rated 4.6 out of 5 on Google and an impressive 4.8/5 from over 560 Restaurant Guru reviews, and it ranks among the very top restaurants in town on Tripadvisor. Diners highlight the depth of flavour, the quality of the ingredients and the warm, attentive service. Whether you fancy a comforting korma, a fiery jalfrezi or something off the chef's specials board, this is one of the stronger curry options on the eastern side of Redditch, and well worth ordering ahead at the weekend.
