Banyan

An absolute gem of a Indian restaurant. We wanted something new so stopped in not knowing what to expect and we were blown away! Beautiful decor inside, super friendly and comforting staff and divine food. It was the perfect balance of spices with a nice heat but not so intense it took away from the overall luxury of the dish. We booked a table for two and brought our 3 month old son with us. The lady looking after our table was super kind and helpful and made us feel at home, she told us that Nathan was their youngest guest and that she also had a young baby at home so it was nice to have a chat and discuss baby topics haha. Overall it was a very pleasant meal and the aesthetics of the restaurant were really wonderful and set the Indian vibe.

Very much our family’s favourite local restaurant. Lovely ambience with exceptional food. The service is also warm and friendly and very welcoming.

Amazing experience at this lovely restaurant. We were very walmly welcomed by a kind lady named Neasha, she sat us down for my husbands surprise dinner. She was extremely attentive and polite, made excellent recommendations of what to order and really made us feel at home. Now for the food.. I cannot fault it, it really was heavenly! The authentic flavours were superb, my husband loved every second of his meal. The service was outstanding, with each meal brought promptly to us, the dessert particularly the Chai Brûlée was scrumptious!! Definitely recommended you to visit, it's worth it and also the price was great for everything we got!! :) Thank you Banyan and thank you Neasha, we will be back for sure!

My wife and I were lucky enough to have our 40th wedding anniversary at the Banyan at the end of May. We had 50 guests and I can honestly say it was brilliant. All the staff were fantastic, the food excellent and they were so accommodating. We had good weather so were able to use the garden. We had two seperate singers performing and the whole evening was enjoyed by everyone. Our special celebration was tailored to our every need. Nothing appeared to be too much trouble.. Thankyou so much Pat and the team.. FANTASTIC...!!!

Excellent authentic food, fantastic service and beautiful location. A real gem in the English countryside!

Really nice food and service. Food is clearly labelled as gluten and dairy free. The only down is that all the puddings have milk :( but the food was so good that doesn’t matter!

Stopped here for lunch with a small group. Not too busy at lunchtime. Choice of plenty of seating inside, but chose to sit outside in the sunny weather. Adequate lunch menu, well priced with good portions. Time from order to food served was very good. Efficient and friendly table service.

A must-visit! Our meal was incredibly flavorful and authentic. The decor is beautiful and adds to the warm, inviting vibe. Service was top-notch—friendly and attentive. Highly recommend for a genuine taste of Sri Lanka!

Little bit out of town. Wonderful pub next door to this amazing Indian resturant. Located next door in a converted barn . Food choice was very good and portions were very filling. Would defiantly be back.

My wife and I have been here twice. We enjoyed it so much the first time we made a special trip down from London to go here again. Great both times. We'll be back again!
