Bizarrely, we were warned against visiting this establishment before we attended (by a local). Recklessly and in desperate search of firm sustenance after a long hike in bog horrible weather; we bit the bullet. In all of my existence Ive never seen such colourful food taste of nothing. To plagiarise the same comment from a previous reviewer; the Chicken Chilli Masala was just a frozen Tikka Masala with some chillis slung on top. Absolute tripe. Starters tasted of nothing and the place had no heating so clung onto coats and had to apply extra layers. The worst thing is that Im having to share a bed in an AirBnB with my pal who has also dined here this evening. Hes looking pale and complaining of his agitated bowels and tumbling stomach. Future best wishes for those that make an error in judgment and walk through the doors and take seat.

Well first things first, this is not a curry house. It is not even worthy of even being called a restaurant. 7 of us were passing through the town looking for somewhere to eat so we asked if we could have a table, we were told we could and this was about 8:30pm. There was no mention that the restaurant was going to close early or that the order had to be placed quickly. We sat down and were told we needed to place our order straight away as the restaurant was closing. We all ordered our own curries and separate nans. When the dishes arrived, 5 of them looked the same, same colour and taste. 2 were veg and all were bland, they had no taste. They served no alcohol so we just ordered soft drinks which were cans of coke or we had glasses of water. The lady who took our ordered appeared to be either the owner or owners wife or someone in charge. She was rude, appeared not to be happy to see us there or serve us. I don't know how anyone can give this place a high rating. The food is tasteless, bland, chicken is plain, sauce stains your fingers due to too much food colouring in the curry. The nan was too chewy. This place is stuck in a timewarp, it needs updating. And to top it off, we were not allowed to keep our receipt. The food was not worth the money we paid for, it is a rip off. Eat somewhere else!! Better still, go to the Tesco up the road, you will be able to put together a meal that will be tasty and at a fraction of the cost.

Fantastic service, food and price. We celebrated a birthday here with 13 guests including 2 children. Everyone was well catered for and happy, we will definitely be returning soon.
