The Paddox — Restaurant in Rugby

Came here for a meal on my birthday, a few days ago, as I wanted to try the newly opened pub. The food came out in less than 10 minutes after ordering, which was quite a surprise! At which point when it arrived we had a frozen corn on the cob, with the buffalo taco rolls, which was underwhelming to say the least compared to how it was described on the menu. And unmelted cheese, that it had looked like it had been just chucked on top of the fries (on our cheesy fries). Considering that it wasn’t busy we were quite disappointed by the quality of food, felt like I could have cooked it at home instead. Not asked about Allergies either which is a big issue with us, also the chef did not know what allergies were in the food he was sending out at all, which is a big red flag. Also some of the bar staff didn’t seem to know what they were doing half of the time. However we were offered free drinks to compensate, but it rather ruined what should have been a good evening. On the upside, the Bar Staff were nice, polite and apologetic about the food but seemed very annoyed when other peoples food were also having trouble with the quality. Finished off the night with going to our local pub, The Bear which never disappoint. Don’t recommend eating there until they sort out...

Went here last night. They've only just reopened and are starting with a limited menu. There's also a new executive chef who plans to expand the menu shortly.

Drinks were excellent (especially Guinness cold) and the bar staff were super friendly, they were great with kids too. The food was good, kids had the usual nuggets/chicken burger and chips etc which was a winner. The grill stuff doesn't come out on a sizzler plate any more (too much smoke apparently) but the flavours are definitely on point. The curry was also a winner, we ordered a lamb curry extra hot and it right disappoint.

The owner was really friendly too, he came over to ask for feedback and told us a bit about his plans. It sounds really good and I hope it all works out.

Only downside was a food was a little slow but this was minor in the grand scheme of things and I put it down to a new chef in a new kitchen. When they've got the operation running slick that shouldn't be a problem any more.

Definitely recommend you go and try it out, thank...

This was probably the best Indian food we’ve had since we moved to Rugby. We went here on a whim as the majority of Indian food we’ve tried in Rugby hasn’t been the best. We looked at the reviews and menu prior to going and they were mixed so we gave it a go. We were pleasantly surprised to see that the menu was new when we arrived and they had everything that we usually order from an Indian mixed grill. We got quite a few items of the menu to try including mixed grill, fish pakora, chilli and masala chips and chilli chicken - we ate the lot and we weren’t disappointed with any of it. We particularly liked the fish pakora, chilli chicken and the shish on the mixed grill. The only suggestion we’d make would be to have the mixed grill on a sizzler plate. The owner was really nice, everyone was attentive, and the chef also came out to make sure everything was okay. We’ll definitely...
