    Lovely restaurant completely meat free, which we hadn’t realised until we got there. However the food was delicious and I found myself not missing meat. The staff were lovely and very friendly and made us feel very welcome. After the meal they were more than happy to call a cab for us. This restaurant is definitely worth seeking out. About a 10 minute walk from the centre of Bath.

    Always eat here on our bi annual visit to Bath. Best Indian food in the city. The smell as you enter, the chandeliers, the smiling staff, all set the stage for the most amazing vegan/veggie selection and extensive menu I’ve ever seen. Delicious food, never fails to hit the spot.
