George Cherian and Meera George are back… with another fantastic fusion menu where Indian Street Food Meets the Lake District, bursting with flavour and locally sourced ingredients!

Since relocating from Bangalore to Ambleside in 2007, George and Meera have been driven by a vision and passion to bring the flavours of their Indian upbringing to their now home in Cumbria- focusing on sourcing only the highest quality local ingredients!
