Food Quality
Pros:

"Amazing food, very tasty and a menu to suit all ages."
"Everything was fault less, the right level of spice to feel it but not ruin the flavor."
"Try something different. The food is delicious."
"The food was so spectacular that we overlooked the somewhat unprofessional service."
Cons:
"Though the main dishes lacked taste and wasn't as satisfying as the starters."
"A lot of unnecessary ingredients that shouldn't be included in this dish."
"However the meat quality is poor."
"The egg had melted in the broth, and far too little chicken, not really worth £11."
"The sliders although had good flavour looked a little undercooked."
"The Randang was disappointing, I've had this dish before elsewhere and always enjoyed it, however, here it was more like a Indian Curry, also too salty."
"Apart from the wings, food here doesn't taste great at all. Pad thai, satay and katsu all lacked flavour."

Atmosphere
Pros:
"Such a cool vibe too."
"Loved the downstairs seating area which can accommodate large groups."

"It's a nice place, the outdoor seating in the back is a must on a hot day."
"Space is comfy and cosy :)"
"The back garden was very pleasant."
"A very nice atmosphere in the garden during the summer, and the heaters kept us warm after sunset."
Cons:
"The decor itself is very disappointing, really cheap wooden chairs and tables."
"Place: very small for me, dirty dark toilets with no signs to show where they are."
"The smell of mould, sewage and whiffs of stink coming from the toilet was VERY off-putting."
"Didnt seem to serve alcohol so that is disappointing."
"Their service is horrendous, they made us wait outside inspite of having empty chairs."
"We were reminded every 10 minutes how much time we had left on the table which just left us feeling harassed."
"No-one likes to be brought a bill despite not asking for it especially when there's still food on the table."
Value
Pros:
"Personally, I feel like the price is reflected in the quality of the food."
"Portion sizes were good and the food was presented well."
"Food is reasonably priced and with BYOB this makes it all round a cheap dinner."
"As it's bring your own, the total bill was £35 each, which was very reasonable for the quality."
"The food is incredible, the staff are so friendly and it's very reasonably priced."
"The curries are really delicious and prices at under £10 so you can't go wrong."
"Food was amazing, good value for money."
Cons:
"Ended up with a £60 bill for two, with lots of left overs because of how bad the food was."
"It is cash only so I felt a bit restricted ordering because I was worried about not having enough."
"Price-wise, I felt like they were a bit on the expensive side."
"Only accept cash, which i think is absolutely crazy!"
"But can only give 3 stars as everything was really expensive."
"Money wise, it is insanely expensive for the value you’re getting."
"The corkage charges are a disgrace. £6 per bottle of wine and £3.50 per large bottle of beer."
Payment Options
Pros:
"They take card (even Amex!)"
"It's also funny to see staff sitting down and eating takeaway food from a nearby chicken shop."
"They 'only accept cash'."
"No card payments available so head to Tescos or Sainsburys for free cash withdrawal (10min walk)."
"AND IT'S BYOB!"
"It's cash only, so take care of that in advance, but it's totally worth it!"
"BYOB was good as accommodates everyone."
Cons:
"Cash only causes them a whole lot of inconvenience for the employees."
"It is BYOB but you are charged for your drink, and they do not allow non-alcoholic drinks even though their selection is incredibly limited."
"Cash only as well which clearly indicates the lack of transparency of this establishment."
"They don't take card so found that weird too."
"Cash only which they don't mention on the website."
"Corkage has now risen to £5 a bottle a lot steeper than it used to be."
"They still take cash in the post pandemic era, definitely something fishy."
