Must have improved their customer service since all the negative reviews below, as staff were very nice and cheerful. Agree that the half gatsby is more than enough for two people so don't order a full one unless you have a larger group! Proper Spicy chips!

The food was excellent as we expected. The ladies were friendly and accommodating because we arrived 10 minutes before they closed but they allowed us to sit down and eat. The owner was very very friendly and asked us to please enjoy our meal and not rush. Shukran uncle.

This place did not disappoint / super tasty. Very friendly staff, although I was there at 11h30 / so no mad rush.

The staff were rude firstly. Secondly, the samoosas and moons are obviously cooked in large batch and as the flavour is bad and tastes like frozen been reheated. Then my moon was mince but had this long stringy piece in it which was gross and I just threw it all away after that.

Bought breakfast eggs were under cooked and runny lacked spice and flavour when we got our meal they gave us one egg instead of two. Lack of customer service we sat in store and got served with foam boxes. Their are way more affordable and better places to try in the area DO NOT WASTE YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY HERE !!!
