A mixed bag of fried chicken…read more My husband is a dirty fried chicken fiend, and that is the only reason this is being reviewed! The menu is not that comprehensive, and often there are things that are unavailable. Stick with chicken and chips, and you'll be ok. Sometimes the fried chicken has been passable and the coating tasty, but more often than not it is either over cooked and chewy or underdone and pale. Saying that, it is cheap and doesn't skimp on the portions. All in all, if we really want dirty fried chicken there are other chain places that are much better.

The undisputed heavyweight champion of curries, this place is a family owned Indian cuisine…read morerestaurant where you can either eat-in or take away. The prices are reasonable, the portions are fit for a King, and the staff are always very polite and helpful. They cater for a variety of traditional dishes here, cooking everything from Korma's to Vindaloo's, (a particular favourite of mine is the Vegetable Vindaloo), as well as dozens of starter-dishes, side-dishes and desserts. The dishes are a little milder compared to other restaurants, but this works in the favour of the establishment as you can taste the food as well as the spices, so as such, a Vindaloo here is about as spicy as a Madras at other places. The restaurant doesn't have an alcohol license though, so whilst they sell soft drinks, they advise that if you want to drink alcoholic beverages to bring your own. Although the restaurant seems small, this is due to the decor and soft lighting, whch helps create a relaxed atmosphere, however there will always be a table available for you, (you can also phone up to reserve a table). The music is just right, (they'll even change the CD for you if you're not too keen on what's being played), and isn't too loud or too quiet. At Christmas, they have an "all you can eat buffet" style service, where you can order as much as you want from the menu for just £20 per person, (this may vary by a few quid, so best to check with the owners for prices nearer the time). They'll also cook a traditional British Christmas dinner using Indian spices in addition to everything on the menu. Put simply, I cannot fault this place.

The fruit and veg is of great quality, very fresh, and reasonably priced.
