I'm pretty sure Bros were still rocking the charts last time this place was decorated, but if you…read morecan overlook the tired furniture and strange decor then you are in for a treat. Don't get me wrong, you will not find any gastronomic genius here - this is strictly a vindaloo and pint of Cobra curry house. But what it does, it does very well, and it has been doing it for a long time. Sadly, despite the good food, this place seems to have (undeservedly) been in steady decline for quite a while, and tends to be less than half full most of the time, so don't be put off if it looks empty!

An absolute, local gem. The staff are wonderful and make every visit memorable and enjoyable. The…read morefood is delicious and comforting.

After reading about Shampan having won the "suburban restaurant" category of the British Curry…read moreAwards, presented by David Cameron no less, we decided to give them a try on a Saturday evening. We booked by phone early that afternoon,and they were already quite full, but managed to fit us in for 7:30pm. The interior was what you'd find in in a typical higher end suburban Indian restaurant, with the addition of a few certificates about the awards they'd won. The food was good, but I was expecting better myself. The presentation was more on par with an inner London restaurant, and the service was attentive. The only real downside was they had that nasty Indian restaurant habit of charging bottle / can prices for soft drinks, but only pouring you a glass from an already opened two litre plastic bottle. Throughout our dinner there was a continuous stream of customers coming in to collect takeaway orders too, so maybe it's more suited to a high end takeaway rather than a nice dining in experience.

It is very reasonably priced and you are allowed to take home the food you have not eaten in a doggy bag, which is great for the midnight munchies. All in all I will be going back - Tonight in fact!
