This place was quiet probably maybe the time I went at 1pm. Its clean environment. They have car park only for their customers. If you're not their customers you can't use there. I didn't use their toilet but the lady that attended to me was very kind person.

Nice traditional pup, very clean, good selection of drinks and delicious food. Outside seating and parking. Good music selection and friendly 1staff. It was our first visit but would recommend and will be back.

Nice and friendly. Sadly the chef was not on duty and it was birthday celebration with family. However, we were allowed to bring in sandwiches, which saved the day.

Lovely comfy pub & AMAZING authentic Indian cooking! Barman was new but made sure we felt welcome & was friendly and attentive. Solid 5 stars. Highly recommended for any Indian food lovers who also enjoy a friendly pub atmosphere.

Had a late dinner here. We were initially not sure how would it be, but it turned out to be very good. They have lot of food options to choose from. Pub with Indian cuisine is a very rare combination. Staff is nice.

I've been coming to this pub for lunch on Friday's for years now, and I can say that their Indian menu contains some of the best authentic Indian cuisine I've ever had. By this point I've worked my way through the whole Indian menu and never been disappointed, I've even discovered quite a few new dishes that I'd never heard of before, which have fast become favourites. The only downside is that the food on the English menu is not great, I can only assume that the negative review below was someone who had eaten a burger and chips or something, stick with the Indian stuff and you you'll be blown away by how good it is. I just wish they did home deliveries! Attached are pictures of the Tandoori sizzler and the chicken palak.

Proper London (-ish) pub that does a decent pint AND does great Indian food (veggie and meat) for a very reaonable cost. Really friendly girl at the bar, locals can be pleasantly colourful (jukebox pop quiz with one fella was fun the first time I went), all in all what an urban pub SHOULD be.

On the face of it this is a traditional working man's pub serving excellent beer with darts and Sports TV and doing that bit extremely well. The difference is in the excellent food on offer plainly served and well cooked. Definitely two of the best curries I have had in a long time. On offer are the usual range of curry dishes plus a long list of meat and vegetarian "Tapas". The Tapas come in large portions so don't be fooled into thinking you need several to make a meal, this place is not a trendy boutique Indian like some in London

Friendly spacious pub, absolutely outstandingly good and authentic curries quite unlike you'll find at any other local curry house, although you definitely pay for quality over quantity. Food service, especially for takeaways, can be painfully slow but I suppose that also shows it's all cooked freshly to order. Convenient car park attached and a beer garden out back.
