Any recommendations?

My usual curry house is The Grange on Grange Farm I would highly recommend this place. Café Ganges in Fenny Stratford is ok, also think about Stony Stratford though. A few miles from Bletchley but worth the trip. There are several to choose from but I like the Kardamom Lounge and the Passage to India. All these places are a short taxi ride from Bletchley.

One of the best Indian restaurants in the area is the Jalori in Woburn Sands, it's only about 10 mins drive from Bletchley, the food is excellent and prices are very reasonable. you may even bump into Alastair Cook, the cricketer, he eats in there.

The Golden Curry used to be really good but I've not eaten there for about 8 years so can't really say if its still the same!

Went to Jaipur a couple of months ago and really wasn't impressed with it.

Expensive fancy looking food in a fancy looking restaurant but the taste just wasn't there, this was a sentiment shared by a number of my colleagues too.

No problem, I've noticed curry houses seem to vary quite considerably over time from being really good to average and sometimes worse.

There's one in Shefford which we've always found to be spot on but just recently seems to have slipped in the standards stakes a bit.

Only ever had a take away from there but I'd say the same about the food, very average considering the image of the place.

Brilliant place, possibly the best thing about Fenny Stratford!
