This review is for the Hotel's restaurant inside.
I came…read morehere for both breakfast and dinner. Neither of which let me down!
BREAKFAST:
You can either choose continental or full. The continental breakfast serves cereals, fruits, yogurts, muffins, croissants, crumpets, and other cold foods. The full breakfast includes eggs, sausage, bacon, hash browns, mushrooms, beans, and grilled tomato. The full breakfast costs 8.75 GBP, which is 1.25 GBP cheaper than the Courtyard Marriot's breakfast next door. Good alternative if you are staying at the Marriot and want something different or slightly cheaper. If you want even cheaper, the continental breakfast is just 6.25 GBP! If you want even cheaper than that, there is a Shell station two minute walk away that sell sandwiches and milk.
DINNER:
The dinner menu is quite impressive. They serve pizzas, hamburgers, curries, Asian food, steaks, and more. I ordered the chicken Makhani curry for 11.55 GBP (about $19.60 USD). It's served with basmati rice, naan, and a side of butternut squash and lentil curry. Portion was just right and the plate came out hot, but not steaming hot. I'm pretty critical when it comes to Indian food, and I must say, the dish was surprisingly good (but not the best). The meat was good, the gravy was flavorful, and the butternut squash went well with the dish. The naan was pre-made, but still good. If I was to improve the dish, I would add more chicken, cook the chicken on a skewer, serve it with freshly baked naan, and serve it steaming hot.
I also tried the "Asian Feast" which is the same thing as the chicken makhani meal (except half the portion) and includes red thai curry (small portion), Indian chips, and two extra sauces (which is just "yogurt" [actually taste like sour cream] and this jam sauce). I don't recommend the Asian Feast. It's expensive and although the portion looks big, its really not. The red thai curry has a strong resemblance of thai food but too sweet and thick for authentic. The "yogurt" was very disapointing and tasted like sour cream straight out of the box. Portion is small for both curries.
