DO NOT EAT HERE. Starters took 40 minutes to arrive. Food was acceptable but everything else let it down. When it came to mains, mine was forgotten, and staff was too dopey to realise thatc3 mains were taken to a table of 4. When I asked where my food was, I was told it was taken to a different table. Waited another 15-20 minutes and it never arrived. Never received an apology or acknowledgement of their mistake. Spend your money somewhere else,bots not worth risking having a terrible experience like mine.

Food tasted okay, nothing special but extremely overpriced. A bottle of poor quality red wine (£8 online) sold for £40.00! Service inexistent, in the sense that there was nobody around to ask for some water. Don't waste your money!

Excellent afternoon tea and Indian tea to celebrate my sister's birthday. Nice venue. Not too noisy. Our waiter Ramadan was helpful, friendly and warm, as indeed were the other staff. A very minor criticism is that some of the cakes and biscuits were a little on the sweet side for our taste, but overall I would rate this as an excellent tea: great sandwiches, scones, jam and clotted cream - and for my sisters and mum (who all chose the Indian tea menu), delicious mango lassi, chai, potato toastie, lamb wrap etc. Good value, great food and service, and I will be visiting this venue again. Oh, and my sister was given a piece of birthday cheesecake which she really enjoyed :)

Very disappointed in the whole experience. We ordered chips and they came at least five minutes before the rest of the meal. On the other hand the rice we ordered came 10 minutes after our main dishes had been served. Ordered tandoori mixed grill but was served tandoori chicken. Nan bread far too hard. We had to ask when we needed anything for example another drink so inattentive service. Did feedback this back at the time and an apology was given but no discount of bill as a gesture of goodwill or seemingly appreciation of our complaints. £85 for lunch for two when we didn’t enjoy seems very expensive
