Spice Central - Edit
Visited here a few times over the years, where I've always had a pleasant experience.
Read moreOn our most recent visit, the 3 of us each ordered a garlic mushroom on puri starter and shared a vegetable Dhansak, a Rogan Josh and a Madras, with chapatis and rice.
Both the Dhansak and Rogan Josh dishes were flavourful and nicely spiced, but there was a sparseness of vegetables in the madras and the naga was a little overpowering. The starters were also bland.
Good location and staff, with reasonable pricing. A decent option overall.

A decent standard - Edit
After the unwelcomely mild start to 2022 the first sign of some proper sub zero January weather was a good opportunity to go out for a nice curry. The £14.99 four course special between 5-8pm is very good value indeed. I had the mushroom garlic on puri, a veg madras and mushroom pilau rice but skipped the 4th course of coffee or ice cream. They also put on a pickle tray and popadoms which was most welcome indeed.

Very knowledgeable staff - Edit
The waiter was really helpful going through the menu with us. Sadly vegans only get 3 out of the 4 pickles with papadams, just a 4th empty bowl! The pickles were average. Sadly the onion bhajis are not vegan so we were unable to eat that (we normally order that), but the mushroom puri starter instead very nice and the lentil soup good too. Very quick service. The vindaloo tasted hot from peppery rather than hot from complex spicing, and we have had hotter... the dhansak was ok but I’d normally enjoy more pineapple. As we were vegan however there was probably no need to bring us the dessert menu nor the after eights. All in all an ok curry out, and we felt confident the food we ordered was vegan, but there might be places that specialise in vegan curry that might be better.
Read morePros: Knowledgeable, helpful staff, Quick service between courses
Cons: Onion bhaji not vegan - why!!?!! No need for egg!, No need for dessert menu or after 8s , Vegans can only have 3 pickles

Good vegan options - Edit
Most of the veg curries are vegan. It's a shame the nan's are not. The Rotti replacements are nice though.

Lovely vegan meal - best I've ever eaten! - Edit
Staff are very welcoming of vegans and very knowledgable about what 'vegan' means. They will literally go through the entire menu pointing out what you can and cannot have. In addition, the chef will do some extra vegan options for you! Vegan food is cooked in separate pans. Food is excellent, service is second to none and ambience is lovely. Cannot recommend this place highly enough. This was the best Indian meal I've ever had in my life!
