We were here on 3rd October for the first night they were offering Indian food . Whilst only a limited menu was available for the first night, it was all delicious, one of the best curries I've had for years. The daal was superb, as were the chicken and lamb curries. Three of us are - a mixed grill to share, three curries, two naans and one rice, just over £40, so excellent value as well as delicious! Would come back without hesitation...

Quite little pub with friendly staff, not too many drinks or food available but is alright. There is a pool table for playing. Toilets are clean. It is one of two pubs located close to Broadway so you can visit our quickly.
