The Spice Cube

Cuisine: Indian Spice Cube really lives up to it’s name. It’s lovely, spicy, rich, tasty and fills you up nicely. If you like garlic, try their garlic chilli chicken, spicy, rich, garlicky and plain yummy. Their prices are very reasonable, around £7.00 for a biryani which includes the rice and a home-made riata. More garlic,… Read more…

Sabatini

Cuisine: Italian I love authentic Italian cooking and this restaurant does just this in spades. They offer proper Italian food, a lovely atmosphere and nice deserts. It is simple food but lovely, and sometimes the more simple the good the better. Try their pizzas, pastas and risottos all for under £8.00. If you like seafood,… Read more…

The Gospoda

Cuisine: Polish I’d never eaten Polish food before now, but I will definitely eat it again. It’s really cheap here; good value, nice staff, and a relaxed atmosphere. I think it’s well worth the money – a personal recommendation is the dumplings stuffed with meat and served with bacon dripping. Laden with calories but absolutely… Read more…

Simply Greek Tavern

Cuisine: Greek Proper home-cooked Greek food. If you’ve never had Stifado before, try it from here.

They are really child-friendly… Read more…

Sachins

Cuisine: Punjabi This is a lovely restaurant, really high-quality food. A little bit more expensive than normal Indian cuisine restaurants, but the flavours speak volumes. They use a massive range of spices and their curries and mains are creamy and spicy and lovely. They have a massive desert range too, my favourite being the coconut… Read more…

Starters and Puds

Cuisine: British This concept sounded a little strange to me at first – a restaurant that serves only starters and puddings. The fact is, the food is beautiful. You can make a starter main course sized if you want to, although they are plenty big enough on their own and are priced really reasonably. You… Read more…

The Living Room

Cuisine: Bistro The living room is really chic and it’s so modern. I love proper pub grub food done well, and this place does it particularly well. They also do a fantastic Thai green chicken curry, not at all heavy – really light with perfectly sticky rice. Go at a lunch time when it’s a… Read more…
