After reading all the reviews we didnt really know what to expect. So being the only Indian anywhere near where we were staying we gave it a try. We ordered a Veg Biryani, and two dansaks. When we went to collect our order we were told that it had been given to another customer by mistake and that they were re making the order! So we sat down to wait. A drink on the house may have been a nice gesture, but no. After about 5 minutes a chap came in returning his wrong order, which was ours. Oh well things happen. Now to the food. When ordering we thought the rice was expensive, so just ordered plain rice. Well the portion was tiny for the price. Now to the Dansak, which should be a thick lentil dish. There must be a shortage of lentils in Cumbria, because there didn't seem to be any!. It tasted more like a Ceylon, but was tasty enough. In summary it did a job, but will be a once only.

Between five of us, we had:
1.5 beers each
One starter each
One main each
Shared two naans and some rice
The total bill came to £160. That’s the kind of price I’d expect to pay at a good restaurant, not for food this poor. Honestly, even £50 would have felt like too much.
I don’t know how this place is still in business. Wouldn’t recommend...
