We booked 2 weeks in advance. When our party of 12 arrived on the evening they had no idea about our booking but as it was quiet they managed to accommodate us. The place itself is very run down and needs much more than a lick of paint. Staff were friendly but had little idea of about the running of the restaurant or how to manage customers. No atmosphere either. However, food was great which was its saving grace. Won’t go back although food was good. Would probably use for a takeaway.

We went for an Indian grill but on arrival we found the pub to be nearly empty. Devoid of any atmosphere and very cold with no heating at all. We decided to have a drink which was fine and leave

We hadn't been in The Why Not for 10-15 years, so when someone told us that it had become a Desi pub we really wanted to try it. We love our Desi food and try all of the places local to us at least once. Tonight we had what was our first try, and probably our last, of The Why Not Inn. On walking in the first impression you get is that the building is tired, it's in need of a makeover, new upholstery, a lick of paint, etc. The welcome was really warm and the young lady behind the bar was lovely. Some of the other staff greeted us also and all looked quite promising. Since there was no Cask ale on I opted for a Coors and my wife had a Strongbow, you can't go wrong with Keg Larger and Cider right? Wrong! IF they were what they were labeled as they certainly didn't taste like it! Infact we both found them undrinkable, and after trying eachothers beverage we decided that if this was an example of the fare then it was probably a good idea not to eat there! So we didn't even try the food, the drinks were enough to put us off. We left our almost full glasses on the bar, told the lady behind the counter that they were not right, accepted the loss of the £7 odd that the drinks cost and left. I really wanted it to be a good experience but, for me, first impressions mean everything. So sorry Why Not Inn its only a one star. Nice staff but if the beer is anything to go by.......

Lots of potential for this place but was disappointed with our family visit tonight. Over priced, dated decor that needs a drastic boost, lovely staff trying their best but the decor, over prices and food just don't match up. It needs to make its mind up if its a pud for the locals or a serious restaurant and go for it. I would not recommend at the moment which is a shame as this place has bags of potential.

I live locally and haven’t had a takeaway from here for a couple of years. Sorry to say I won’t be going back for years again. It was a Saturday night treat, just short of £35 to share a basic starter, 2 main curries and share a garlic nan. The Lamb parcel starters were inedible (the one mouthful I had was spat out). The Special Mix Curry was tasty but just 1 piece of lamb, 1 piece of prawn and 2 bits of chicken. The Bombay Surprise was marginally better. The Garlic Naan was lukewarm, although to be honest they never travel well for a takeaway. For the first time ever, from any Indian takeaway when spending that sort of money, no complimentary items, not even papadoms. As I was waiting for the food, I looked at the Xmas Day menu and was wondering whether that might be a thought. Sorry No…. Bah humbug and all that.

This place is always consistently good. With at least 24 hours notice the owner will cook any special requests; we had the goat curry, beef shathkora recently. Food always fresh and tasty and the service is brilliant. Cobra on draft and a decent wine list.
