Reviews in Warwickshire

My wife and I ate here on two nights - 5th and 6th August. We had Laham Mashwi (lamb kebabs), Laham bil Bamia (lamb cooked with okra, onions, coriander & garlic in tomato sauce), Kastaletta (lamb cutlets) and Mousakka. All the dishes were excellent, tender meat with excellent accompaniments served with rice and salad. The kastaletta was, without doubt, the finest dish of cutlets I have ever eaten. The decor is fine, the service was excellent and friendly. Highly recommended.

Really lovely meal, and lovely staff, the food was good quality and cooked really well, excellent value for money, they have done really well with the organisation of social distancing in this establishment its a real credit to the manager and his hard working staff to feel safe in theses difficult times when you are out, he should be telling other establishments how to achieve this. I’d defiantly book thou. We will be going again for sure.

Seriously got something wrong here. When a place hires overtly aggressive door staff that can tell the actual pub staff who can come in, there’s a problem. On the hottest day of the year, the overly verbose security guard says ‘you can’t let him in with shorts on’ this was after he repeatedly told us we have to book a table, yet failed to listen to the fact we had and I’d emailed to free it up as my girlfriend had her hospital shift extended by three hours! I wish I could say this terrible front of house experience is a one off, sadly the security door people always have this appalling attitude. I’m sure they are bored, I’m sure this is a little bit of power for them, and in fairness I’m certain they get some right idiots playing up, but we were just an ordinary 40 something couple, finished work late, hoping for a snack and couple of drinks. It is my last time visiting there, there’s too many great places in Leamington to have to put up with this behaviour. You scores below are artificially high for food and value for money, as we didn’t eat or spend any money, but it wouldn’t be right to score them as a 1, so please ignore the 5/5 as I couldn’t possibly know.

Arrived a little bit early but not a problem the table was ready. Ordered a drink before looking at the menu so a tab was set up. I had the hunter chicken lovely nice and most, my partner had steak and ale pie which was very nice. Had a Belgium waffle fabulous. Easy to book the table and social distance in place. Will go again

Food and service was brilliant :)

Booked in for a Lunch time meal online which was straightforward. Adequate safety measures in place. Staff were friendly and polite, and the service was excellent. The food arrived quickly after ordering & was delicious. Thumbs up.

Thought we would try the Newdigate Pub tonight for a meal especially as you get £20 discount. Now we haven’t been to this establishment in well over 7 years and I will not be going again. Firstly the manager was extremely abrupt, perhaps it’s his manner but it’s not good. Secondly the meal I had was revolting and couldn’t eat it. Nobody came over and asked how the meal was, probably cause they knew how rank it was! Having observed the pub the waitresses are not wearing masks and the bar does not have screening. There does not seem to be any distancing in this pub, for example there was a queue of customers in front of our table and in the current climate we found it unacceptable and left.

Fantastic food and service. Well organised COVID-19 safety measures and exceptionally clean throughout. We will be back!

Nice meal! I had a hot mezze as a starter - the Fatayer Sebanik, which are pastries filled with spinach, onions, pine kernels, lemon juice, olive oil and sumac. Vegetarian and vegan options were available. Previously I had the Lentil soup which was also delicious. For my main I had a rich and luxurious Mosaka. The okra based stew sounds great - that will be my treat next time!

Went for lunch food was amazing already booked to go back later in the week with my family. Staff really friendly, great prices and the best pub food I’ve ever had.

Food was brilliant as normal and the service was first class

Came today with my family this was the first time since lockdown.The staff were very friendly and poffesional.We all enjoyed are meals however I found mine slightly burnt so I ask if I could have a replacement and they did so straight away.They also offered us free drinks which I thought was nice.Will be returning

I came here with a small group of friends for a birthday but from the moment we arrived we were disappointed. Half of us arrived a bit later (I did mention this in the booking requests which were also not acknowledged whatsoever) and when we did join the back of the queue our friends told us through the window to come round which seemed appropriate as we had booked a table. But at the door we were met with absolute rudeness from the bouncer who wouldn't let us in even though we could see our friends at our table. He was so rude and patronising which started off our night on a disappointing tone. When we finally got in, the drinks were ridiculously overpriced and we waited over 45 mins for them after which we promptly drank then and left so we could go somewhere else that didn't have music so loud you can't even hear yourself think. Overall I used to like Bedford Street but now I don't think me or my friends will be returning ever again.

We love this place for Sunday dinner .. just felt a little annoyed last week as large groups of families not adhering to social distancing and crowding around our table when trying to eat .. it is an inconvenience the world in which we are living through at the moment but if we stick to the rules hopefully we can get rid of this awful virus

Food was lovely as always Staff have really gone out of their way with the new covid changes, making the pub a safe and friendly environment for all

Excellent food, very pricey drinks!

Lovely pub/restaurant. Staff are superb, food and drink is outstanding. Quite local to me which is a bonus. Very welcoming place that caters for everyone

As always meal and staff top rate.
