One gets the impression that the cosy confines of the Clay Oven lend themselves well to a cheery convivial hubbub, regardless of the evening.

Despite the crowd, the cheery and attentive waiters display excellent knowledge of the food on offer; an almost bewildering array of reasonably-priced favourites and specialities alike. The lamb shashlik kebab from the eponymous clay oven didn't disappoint, and the choice of non-meat options satisfied even the most choosy of vegetarian companions.

The sheer amount of choice may prove off-putting for some, but share with friends and you'll unearth some hidden gems without spending a fortune.
