Still my favourite for Tikka since opening. Wish they would get on the delivery apps :-( WhatsApp ordering is easy enough and wait is not long.

Great tasting food that we have trusted for years. Food quality and service has been of a good consistent level for many years now. Side note: Always get yourself chickens samoosas while you wait. If you have samoosa dip, even better.

Good food, busy spot. Lots of options Tikka sauce is nice. Chicken looks good... Had the chicken Tikka gatsby full house option was a bit of a cheat with omelet eggs but zero cheese ... That's not full house...at all other places cheese and eggs makes a full house Gatsby so giving less stars .... Polony Gatsby also good....

The food is always fresh, tasty and well packaged. The portions are good and priced fairly. Highly recommended! Their service is quick at the till...however the waiting time could take long when there is a lot of customers. It is a friendly environment, people are always conversing with one another.

They should sell food that's mild as well. Everything is extremely spice and strong. But that being said, it's very tasty and delicious
