Sunday Match? Try the Dabba Sunday Roast

If the fixture falls on a Sunday, you’re in for a treat.

Our Dabba Sunday Roast (our Indian take on the traditional roast) is served 12pm–4.30pm every Sunday. It’s wonderfully hearty and a great meal before an afternoon at the football, especially if you’re planning drinks with friends beforehand!
