With the C19 virus lockdown still in place trying to find a good eatery in the Lake District is a bit limiting. But fortunately we came across this place via Just Eat, and judging by the mostly positive reviews are various sites we thought we'd give it a try.
Using their online menu via Just Eat (they do not have their website of their own at time of writing), it was easy to navigate and select the meals we wanted. But being as this was going to be our first time ordering food here we opted to go for some quite mild curries - a korma and chicken tikka masala, with coconut rice and fries.
The delivery charge is a bit on the steep side (£4.50) I don't know whether that is a fixed charge regardless of distance, but it is something to bear in mind when ordering. Fortunately given the distance and convenience we didn't really mind the charge, even the total bill came to around £23 for two.
The meals arrived on time, and was very well packed in individual foil trays. But we did put the chips and rice in the microwave just for a few seconds.

Read moreAlthough we moved to Whitehaven in January 2020 we have yet to try out most places such as this hidden gem, unfortunately for me I won't be able to climb up the steps from the main entrance as I am disabled but on this particular visit my carer did climb the steps to collect our evening meal that I ordered over the phone, I asked for my most favourable keema madras and pilau rice and just 1 naan bread. The quality was very good and plenty of it and the naan bread was very tasty but as usual I had to finish the remainder of that meal the next day. I would of certainly booked a table to eat in as it's always a nice change from sitting at home but as I mentioned earlier I am disabled ♿. But I will be ordering food from here again soon to try out the other flavours they have on the menu. My carer did pick up a menu leaflet whilst she was waiting. If you love your curries as much as I do you can't go wrong here! And if you live local then this would be your most favourite place to come and eat. With a varied selection of hot and very mild curries you're sure to find something to your liking I...
