good thing about shagor is their portion size, very generous, they have a buffet on certain days (cant remember which days) if you would like to have an unlimited Indian food night, it covers the basic options which you could find on Indian takeaway menu.

A 5pm booking on a Sunday with two tables and I think 17 people. It was very straightforward, the waiters were attentive with requests for drinks and desserts and we could go straight to the buffet which has a nice selection and the food was tasty enough We felt comfortable in there as a group as the atmosphere was relaxed. All in all a good evening.

Not been here for quite a few years. Me and my better half thought let’s have a nice curry night. Had a butter chicken tikka masala and my wife a vegetarian dish with sides. The food was lovely and service excellent. Will be returning again very soon.
