2 course lunch special, from £6.95

Our lunch and a la carte menu are very healthy. We use ingredients like turmeric, garlic, ginger, cumin, coriander, green cardamom, fennel, fenugreek, bay leaf, cinnamon and many more which are good for your wellbeing. We only cook with olive oil and buy our spices whole then grind them ourselves, that way we know what’s in our food.

We use free range poultry, lean Scottish lamb, ship to plate seafood in 48 hours or less, and fresh vegetables, all of which are bought on a daily basis from local farmers.

We cook everything from scratch on a daily basis unlike other companies who buy most of their products frozen and just heat them up in an oven. The only frozen food we buy in our kitchen is chips and green peas.

All of our kitchen staff are highly skilled and dedicated to great cooking.
