Redgate Indian Cuisine

As you may have guessed, this takeaway specialises in Indian cuisine and is located on the Redgate estate, opposite my old primary school. Its location away from the hustle and bustle of the village (compared to a lot of Formby, the village is definitely booming) means that it is easy to forget about a place like this, especially with the Balti House and Shanti in closer proximity to the comfort of the village.
However, if you fancy pigging out on an Indian without leaving the house and would like it cooked for you rather than nuked in a microwave, you could do a lot worse than going to Redgate Indian.
The usual suspects are there — korma, jalfrezi, madras, vindaloo (for those of you that way inclined) but on my last visit there I decided to go with one of the house specials, going for the Roshni chicken which was delicious, albeit a bit spicy for my liking (I was warned, but did I listen?) There are also a range of chef’s specials as well as the house ones, which while a bit more expensive, are worth it.
Whilst there are better in Formby, Redgate Indian is worth a try if you just fancy slobbing in front of the tv with a curry and a can of Special Brew.
