We stop off here when we charge the car and enjoy sitting in and having a small lunch. It's great to see they are able to cater for plant based diets and as we just found out, gluten free (as my daughter is on an exclusion diet for a while) so we were able to have gluten free bread with our soup. They also do a great oat milk latte. What would make the meal 100% is providing some non dairy spread/butter for the bread, but otherwise we can't fault the service, very friendly staff and the quality of the food. I'd say it is good value for money.

My husband I found this place accidentally as we were looking for a Tesla supercharger, which was located behind this restaurant. And what a GEM it was!! Both of us ordered the LAMB SHANK, along with Sweet Potato Fries & Homemade Onion Rings. It was SUPERB!! Really DELICIOUS!!! We were welcomed by Deep, the friendly waiter. He was the one who recommended us the lamb shank as it's one of their specialties. And AMRO, the chef who made the yummy food, came out to deliver our order is also a super friendly guy and very kind. We ended up having a nice chat with him and he even gave us a free sweet treat that he just made, super yummy! We highly recommend this place as we had a very wonderful dining experience there. Thanks again Amro & Deep! :)

Highly recommended, and here’s why: The service, esp from Saraa & Hamid, was absolutely unbelievably outstanding! They all made for an amazing experience. All the staff are clearly very happy to be part of the team at the hotel & restaurant. We had afternoon tea. The sandwiches were freshly prepared by Hamid and they tasted so delicious that we didn’t have room for the cakes and scones! There is plenty of onsite complimentary parking. Thank you ever so much.

We had a meagre portion of chips with the burgers and there could have been more flavours but my table were very happy and we went to enjoy the escape room which was brill. Overall it’s worth a visit!

You are warmly received by Emily when entering the restaurant. Emily was very welcoming and professional.

All the staff provided excellent service and it was great to see that all worked well as a team. Keep up the great work. 31/08/24 Update, been staying here now for nearly a year and seen some changes over that time. However today is the best change they have done since I started to stay here… finally they have now started to serve Indian food in the restaurant, and wow what a treat that was. The food was outstanding, great job chef 👌 Be great to see it become a permanent feature on the menu 🙏 Wonderful service from Sarar and Dhimant, well both!
