Booked for 5.30. Restaurant wasn’t open at 5.25. Lights off, no one in. Car pulled up just in time and the staff got out of a car and opened up. Not the welcoming experience we had hoped for. Opted to eat elsewhere.

Very friendly, eager to help with menu choices, quick service, lovely tasty meals and accompaniments, all served hot, generous portions and reasonably priced. Small family special occasion was a great success.

Poor service and basic food. Also and not the restaurant fault but a noisy table of 14 taking over the restaurant had and impact on our night.

Good service, fast and friendly. Food was ok, flavour was good but meat a little dry. Nice to see the curry’s come with rice instead of having to buy separately. Reasonably priced.

Food excellent. The place was a little cramped, but testimony to the quality of the food and the fact we visited during the Stratford River Festival. The toilets could be improved.

We had another lovely meal at Thespians and the service was great as always. A warm welcome, nice wine and a good curry, can't ask for more than that.

A very enjoyable meal; especially the creamy flavour of the salted lassi drink. The only exception was that the last 1 cm of the lassi was not drinkable, cos the salt had not all been dissolved into the liquid. Otherwise, it is a very pleasant restaurant.

We had a lovely meal at thespians we were recommended this restaurant to eat. The food was tasty and hot however I had emailed the establishment before hand to make them aware this was for my husbands birthday I couldn’t bring a cake due to the fact we were there on a family trip. It was quite disappointing as there were other eateries around we could have chosen from that would have perhaps gone that little extra. It also felt like we where in a game of Pac-Man with the waiters walking round tables a little of putting whilst eating.

Traditional style Indian restaurant in an olde worlde building. Booked a 6pm table easily on line, good service though not terribly busy at 6pm. I had Chicken Naga and it was one of the best i have ever tasted, everything - naan, vegetable rice, Sag Aloo, Poppadoms for me was excellent, DH had a Lamb dish which he says was nice though nothing special. Would recommend.

Food was not as nice as the other times we have been here! All spirits are not brand names but are in brand names bottles or it's watered down maybe. Never again will we go there! It's disgusting that they charge brand prices for cheap spirits

The only issue we had was wanting a quite sit down together as a couple and being put back to back with a loud table, one diner of whom seemed to think it was OK to lay his arm over my chair back and keep tapping! There were other tables we could have been put at. I never understand why restaurants squeeze diners into one area.

The food was satisfactory without being exceptional but the restaurant lacks atmosphere and could do with smartening up. Very grateful however that somewhere is open for food after the theatre. As the restaurant was busy from 10.30 on a Monday night there is clearly a demand and it is unbelievable that no where else is open in a place like Stratford.

Food very good all though my wife said the tikka masala was a bit salty! Service was a bit chaotic because the tables are a bit small! But overall a very good meal and atmosphere

The food was good but let down by the service. We were there for a special occasion and one of the main meals was wrong. Had to sit with all the other food on the table waiting the right dish to be brought out which spoiled things. Would have liked some gesture from the restaurant, such as a free drink.

Amazing night , amazing food flavours and spices,so many Indians in Stratford,I would definitely recommend as the food taste so fresh,and good choices of wine.. could have another rose on (dryer one) the menu as only one to choose. Zinfandel too sweet for us so we went for white,which was very nice. Mains came a little quick as was still on my poppadoms,but that's us we like to make a longer evening having dinner. Great time. Going back next week.

The staff are very friendly, polite and attentive. I had booked a table for ten but arrived with a party of 11 they added an extra table with no fuss even though it was very busy. A few of the party have certain dietary requirements i.e. No yeast or dairy, the staff where very helpful and gave people the right advice and what would suit their needs. The food was fragrant and ful of flavour al the meals went down well. Will definitely be coming here again

This is the first time we've booked on-line with Quandoo and it worked very well, even though we booked at the last minute on the day. Thespians was better than we expected and the food was really tasty, all three courses! The staff were very welcoming and the service was perfectly timed. It was our first time at this restaurant and we will definitely be returning.

Thespians Indian restaurant. Starters poppadums and chutneys great. Curries needed more sauce.garlic naan ok. Rice ok. Chips slightly undercooked. Service abit too fast when first seated at table as didn't give me time to catch my breath before asking what drinks we were ordering, so felt rushed.
