You don't have to go far for a great curry!

Lime Indian Restaurant, located on the Mornington Crescent estate in Nuthall offers a fantastic range of authentic Indian food. I went with my family the other night and the food was amazing. The fish pakoras were a particular hit with the kids, and the Lahori Machli (Fish) was absolutely gorgeous. The starters are just under £5 and the main courses are about £8-£15. You are welcome to take your own alcohol, and unusually they don't charge anything for corkage. The staff are  incredibly friendly and made a real fuss of our kids. A strong recommendation.
