"On the evening of the 26th November 2023, I, along with two friends, embarked on a culinary journey at Bangla Pride in Oakengates, Telford. This establishment is renowned for its authentic Bangladeshi and Indian cuisine, offering a spectrum of flavours through its expansive and unique menu. Our visit, which began around 9:30 pm, was marked by the restaurant’s commitment to exceptional service and its dedication to delivering quality dishes. Our meal commenced with an array of appetisers, including a tube of refreshing Mint Sauce, a crisp Onion Salad, a tub of Mango Chutney, a robust Red sauce, and four light Plain Poppadom’s. Each appetiser set the stage for the main courses with their vibrant flavours and textures. For the main course, we indulged in a fiery Hot King Prawn Tawa, expertly prepared Madras Hot and without coriander, alongside two servings of Lamb Tawa, seasoned to a perfect Medium Hot and also without coriander. Accompanying these was a flavourful Tarka Dall, a comforting serving of Boiled Rice, a plain Haan, and a fragrant Garlic Naan, each dish complementing the other and creating a harmonious blend of tastes. To accompany our meal, we chose a large Water and two Cream Coffees, known as Floater Coffee, which provided a soothing finish to our dining experience. Notably, the staff at Bangla Pride were the epitome of warmth and hospitality. Their attentive and welcoming nature ensured that our dining experience felt like a home away from home. Each dish was prepared exactly as requested, showcasing the kitchen’s attention to detail and commitment to customer satisfaction. As we concluded our meal, we made sure to express our heartfelt gratitude to the waiters and kitchen staff. Their efforts in creating such a warm and inviting atmosphere made our evening not just a meal but an unforgettable experience, one that we will cherish for a long time. In summary, our visit to Bangla Pride was a delightful exploration of Bangladeshi and Indian cuisine, made memorable by the restaurant’s dedication to flavour, quality, and customer care.

"We have eaten here loads, especially for breakfast which are the best, freshest food cooked by far. We recently ate our evening meal here. It was a spur of the moment idea so we hadn't pre booked, but the staff were more than welcoming. Even though there were quite a few families eating there already, the staff were more than willing to show the 4 of us to our table. The place itself and our table was lovely and clean. We were given menus on arrival and after we sat, we were offered drinks while we chose what we wanted to eat. I'm don't have a very big appetite so I was glad to see there was a menu for kids/OAP's or those with a small appetite which you don't see a lot of. Our daughter is a type 1 diabetic and they were more than willing to cater for her needs. A lovely friendly waitress brought our drinks, all glasses were clean. My husband ordered the gammon from the main menu which was huge and he enjoyed every bit of it. My son ordered the lasagne from the main menu which he enjoyed and there was plenty of food on his plate both dishes came with chips and salad. My daughter abd I ordered off the small menu but even then there was plenty of food for the price, you definitely get a lot of food for your money. Our waitress Keira brought over our food and we were shown where the condiments were. She was friendly and helpful as was the other waitress. Cutlery was individually wrapped in napkins and I noted that all of our cutlery was clean and I'm picky and I do always check that everything we eat or drink from is spotless. And here everything was spotlessly clean. As we were enjoying our food the atmosphere was nice and light. With nice views out of the windows. Waitresses were on the ball collecting empty glasses and cleaning the tables. Even the outside tables which are on a patio area that overlooks the river Severn were all spotlessly clean. We enjoyed every bit of our food, which was all cooked to perfection. I did note that all the staff were wearing facemasks and wearing hair nets so no wonder this place gets a 5* food hygiene rating. We will definitely be back soon now that restrictions for covid have lifted. I highly recommend this place to couples or families looking for a good meal in a clean nice atmosphere. Where all the staff are friendly and helpful. We had expected to pay much more for our meals including drinks so with the money we saved we left as a tip for the staff which was highly deserved. We will be back soon. Thank you for everything, you guys were the best."
