"Been to this pub many times as the Indian food is usually great but unfortunately last night could be our last night!! They have introduced a new menu which started last night and none of the staff seem to know what’s going on! They were actually printing off A4 copies of the menu as customers asked to see a menu!The evening started with me asking the barman for a pint of Kingfisher (Indian beer) and he asked if I wanted a single or a double!! After clarifying that I wanted a pint of beer not a spirit, I then asked him for a pint of coke and a half pint of lager. This little teaser had him totally flummoxed! He asked if I meant half pint coke and a half pint of lager? NO says I, I want a pint of coke with ice and a half pint of lager! It took him a good 30 seconds to figure out it was two separate drinks and he was thinking where could he find a big enough glass to mix a pint of coke with half of lager .The evening continued along the same vein when we tried to order food. The order was written down three times before he got it right.The food turned up after 30 minutes but was immediately sent back as it was all cold .When the meals arrived the second time, they were all hot and very tasty. This was surprising given the Fawlty Towers experience we’d just had at the bar.So the management have clearly screwed up with the introduction of their new menu. There has obviously been no planning and no staff training. We saw several customers complaining directly to the manager. We will wait a few months for this place to either settle down or go out of business before we would consider trying it again."

Had dinner here the other night and although the service was slow(it wasn't busy) when we did get the food it was great.

A good pub to watch sports with friends, they have great Indian food and fairly priced as well. Highly recommend the place.

Just wanted to say a huge thank you. We had a party for my husbands 50th last night. It was such a great night. The staff as always were friendly and allowed me to blue tooth a playlist. The buffet was really good and I’m still enjoying the samosas today.

A work colleague suggested we ate here rather than the normal high street curry houses. It was fab. Nice to be able to enjoy real ale with great Indian food and sports on the tv we really enjoyed the night and all reasonably priced too.Staff friendly.This will now be a regular for me when I come to Crawley !

Came to the Downsman for the first time with my wife and everytjing exceded our expectations. The bartenders Dani and Stacey were very friendly and helped us a great lot in explaining all the available dishes and what they recomended us was exactly spot on! I had the Nawabi Biryani which was the absolute best in town full of flavour and perfectly balanced. My wife had the lambchops which where cooked to perfection. Excelent atmosphere and the beers where nice an cold! Would deffinetly come again!

Visited this pub with my customers who recommended the food. From the outside, I thought we were just visiting a normal neighbourhood pub, however was very wrong when we walked inside. For a Thursday night it was very busy. Warmly greeted by the staff who set up a tab for me, took our drinks order and then gave is the menu to look over. They dont do table service which is not an issue at all. The menu is loaded with great starters/bar snacks etc in addition to great mains. Very simple and traditional curry dishes aswell as a great tandoori menu and chef specials. Speed of service was faultless and the food was fantastic. If you are in Crawley, be sure to search for this hidden gem.

My family and I have just had a delivery from you and I have to say that it was appalling, everything that arrived was so Spicey hot and the food was so cold, the madras we ordered only had 3 pieces of chicken in it and the goat Biryani was mainly bones. We used to eat at the Downman on a regular basis, at least once a week and I have to say that the quality has really dropped, we will not be coming back either personally or delivery until things improve, another £45 wasted......We had a delivery from you a couple of weeks ago which was not great which we thought was unusual as we have never had a bad meal with you in the past, so disappointing that quality has deteriorated so quickly.Same c...
