I can’t emphasise how amazing this restaurant is. We came from Birmingham and were looking for a place to eat so, we randomly went on Google to search for restaurants and came across this one. The location of it perfect , I love how it’s right in the middle of a park. The man that served us was so sweet and kind this is something I will never forget , he made sure we were fine throughout our whole time there and even put a portable heater next to us to make sure we’d stay warm. The food was love

Amazing food, we had chicken shawarma wraps, steak cut chips and delicious nachos. The restaurant is located within Spinneys park. Great for family's to grab some food and relax in the grass. Customer service was outstanding, the owner made sure we were satisfied and well-looked after.

One of the best restaurants I have ever been to, the atmosphere and decor was incredible just like the servers who were so kind and friendly. The food itself was absolutely phenomenal and freshly made, I have already recommended this lovely place to friends and family, would definitely go again.

I was born nearby and came back to show the area to my other half and to reminisce with my mother. It's been a perfect sunshine day capped off by a wonderful Lebanese cuisine and a very cheerful service. Thanks very much.
