Dropped in for a drink. Wish we hadn't. Uninspiring choice of beer, had a Guinness and a lager, both were pretty awful. Food looked OK. Strange atmosphere in the place, neither a bar or a restaurant, could have done with dimming the very bright lights a bit. Lots of kids on the rampage. Darts on the telly that nobody was watching. I think the sound was off. Weird, won't be rushing back.

A friend of mine recommended using this place for a takeaway, and I am very pleased we took his advice. The food arrived hot and fresh in quick time and was delivered by a friendly driver. The quality of the food was amazing and it was obvious their chef uses very high quality ingredients. The freshly cooked poppadoms seemed larger than the norm and they were accompanied by a lovely assortment of high quality chutneys & dips. Our Tandoori grilled mains were all delicately spiced and delicious. They were all very generous portion sizes and came with crispy fresh salad. We also had a portion of cheesey chips which were also great. The Tandoori fish melted in the mouth, the paneer tikka was delightful too. The only small thing I would mention was they use chicken thigh for the tandoori chicken and not chicken breast. I know this is probably because thighs don’t dry out in the Tandoor like a breast can, but my other half said he’d ask if they could use chicken breast next time instead (he prefers the texture). It was a great meal and we will definitely use them again.

Decided to meet friend's here as although it is a pub it serves Indian food too. You order at the bar and if you want a dish that isn't on the menu, they are very obliging. I had chicken rogan josh with boiled rice as on 'diet' and it was superb. All meals arrived very quickly and were well received. Very friendly, welcoming atmosphere and drinks prices very reasonable too. Will definitely be returning and I recommend this great place .

The food was lovely. The large quantity of feral children running amok was not. We were there as a special occasion meal celebration and it was spoiled by screaming and invasive children running wild throughout the restaurant, the beer garden and toilets. The parents seemed oblivious to their uncontrollable offspring, and let them do whatever they wanted spoiling a very many peoples evening. Please go to a whacky warehouse next time! The food and staff were lovely though.

Better than your average pub curry, but far from what one would expect from reading their website. Lamb kebabs were bland and had the appearance of something mass produced and bought in. Passable but not memorable. The Lamb biryani was something to behold, more orange than a certain ex US president the rice was just a inedible soggy mess. To give it it’s dues, the lamb was tender and tasty but overall gave the impression that it was put together by someone who didnt love a good Biryani, a real shame. If you are coming for good Indian food, then go elsewhere.

This is complete transformation from a spit and sawdust local to a high class dining experience. Specialising in Indian cuisine the one English dish of fish and chips has been given the exclusive haute cuisine treatment. Highly recommended A1 five star.

Not from thIs area but wanted somewhere to go for a meal with family. This place was suggested by my granddaughter. The food is really excellent and very reasonably priced. It all came in a timely manner and was all very hot. I could actually taste the garlic on the Naan bread and the coconut on the Peshwari Naan too which is not that good in my area. The staff are all friendly and nothing seems to be too much trouble. Whilst I was driving on this occasion, it appeared from looking round the bar that there’s a good atmosphere here if you’re calling in for drinks only, but personally, having tasted the Indian food, I would have to eat here every time and will again when next in the locality.
Typical of this type of place the grill stuff is really nice and tasty, but the curry’s are of an average at best type of quality. Taste mass produced and no love. The Biryani also tasted packet quality. Really disappointing when your grills are great.

Visited on a Saturday early evening when the football was on but there is plenty of room and also quieter tables to eat at. Ordered the mixed grill and some side dishes, food arrived quickly and it was excellent! The mixed grill is very generous and filling, really tasty and good quality. Really happy with the food and the service. The pub looks great too and a lot of money has been spent inside.
