"Have visited this pub last three weeks on Saturday night about 10pm to catch up with a few friends. Last night (3rd July 2021) one of our party asked landlady/owner to turn music down. His brother had just passed away and he wanted to chat. She said that there had been alot of football supporters in the pub who had spent more money than us and refused to turn it down despite tha fact that apart from the five in our party there was only herself and a couple of others at her table. Also one or two in another room. She said basically that if we did not like it we could go elsewhere. Disgraceful tirade from someone who should be welcoming back trade after being locked down for so long. Needless to say we wont be going back again. No masks worn when moving around and no record being kept of visitors in accordance with requirements for test and trace purposes. The one good thing was the barman."

"My first curry at the Rajrani on Friday night and also my first one in Coleshill. The obvious thing you'll notice is how small it is, cosy is a bit of an understatement. You could literally rub shoulders with the table next to you. I am therefore thinking that this could potentially be a problem at times but fortunately it wasn't on our visit. The menu is quite comprehensive with a few dishes that you wouldn't usually find in your typical Bangladeshi restaurant. I suggest some will need further explanation from your waiter. The service was prompt, pleasant and attentive. They will add service charge to the bill but this should be taken off if you have any issues. The three of us had a variety of dishes, together with a few sides and all was excellent. My only suggestion would be to cut down (literally) the size and the amount of chicken in the meals, it's just my preference but I am sure others would differ. I am not sure if they do desserts but sadly they had no kulfi which was a disappointment for the wife. Cost wise it is not cheap but as we enjoyed our visit we felt it was worth it."

"The restaurant has a welcoming staff, a varied menu and a pleasant atmosphere with soft background music. The portions were generous, I couldn't finish my starter and main course. The parking is a bit hidden, located just before the restaurant down the hill, turn right and then left after about 75 yards to find a hidden car park. The service was prompt and the meal type was dinner, with prices ranging from £20–30 per person."

"I ordered a chicken and mushroom curry and a vegan chicken curry. I asked for mushrooms to be added to the vegan curry as it doesn 't come with as standard. Sometimes the mushrooms are added and sometimes they aren 't, and on this occasion, one curry came with mushrooms and one didn 't, so I assumed that the curry without mushrooms was vegan. Also the tubs had no marking on them to indicate which was which and they actually look the same. I assumed wrong, I consumed real chicken. Congrats on making such a great chicken alternative that it took a few chunks for me to realise that what I was eating wasn 't fake. I 'm furious and very upset that this has happened. A simple 'V ' on the tub would 've been sufficient. Needless to say, I won 't be ordering from here again, which is a shame due to their fantastic meat alternatives"

"I had my first curry at Rajrani on Friday night, which was also my first time dining in Coleshill. The restaurant is quite small and cozy, to the point where you might feel like you're almost sharing a table with the people next to you. While this could potentially be a problem during busy times, it wasn't an issue during our visit. The menu offers a good variety of dishes, including some that you wouldn't typically find in a Bangladeshi restaurant. Some items may require additional explanation from the waiter. The service was quick, friendly, and attentive. A service charge is automatically added to the bill, but it can be removed if you have any concerns. We tried a variety of dishes and sides, all of which were excellent. My only suggestion would be to reduce the portion size and amount of chicken in the meals, as I personally prefer smaller portions. I'm not sure if they offer desserts, but unfortunately, they were out of kulfi which was disappointing for my wife. The prices are not cheap, but considering the enjoyable experience we had, we felt it was worth it."
