Meals routinely wrap with a complimentary pour of Baileys or Port on ice.

Are gluten-free or lactose-free options available?

According to visitor feedback, mains are prepared gluten-free and lactose-free. You should inform staff of specific dietary needs or preferences when ordering.

How large are the portion sizes?

Portion sizes vary across the menu; while dishes like noodles are described as generous, some curries and sides are considered smaller, so ordering extra rice or dishes to share is recommended for groups.

Parking is limited directly in front of the restaurant, but free street parking is nearby on side streets, and visitors also note an adjacent church parking lot available for use.
