Nice little café hidden away on an industrial estate. Food and drink very reasonably priced and the service is friendly and prompt. I had the Chicken Shawarma which I would highly recommend.

Hi. Would just like to say how wonderful this place is. I ordered a whole lamb on a bed of rice for my wedding anniversary party and it was the main focal point and talked about item during the night. Everyone loved it. Not only did it look fantastic but it tasted amazing as well. The meat very succulent and the rice cooked to perfection. I would not hesitate to order again. Amazing value
