The outside of Mustard café is not very enticing for customers; The front is painted with a dark brown colour, and has graffiti on it. I think a brighter lick of paint would do the café wonders. Inside, the restaurant area isn’t any brighter, and the dull lighting doesn’t improve the aesthetics either. I’ve only been inside here for one meal with my friends recently, and we were the only customers inside.(I’ve walked past before and usually see between zero and one customer at a table). The restaurant also has a free delivery service, so perhaps a lot more people ring up for takeaways, rather than sit inside to eat. I still browsed the food menu, just to see if anything took my fancy. The prices are very low, and the dearest dish is the King Prawn Biryani at £8.95(Even that’s cheap to me). I bought a Keema Mushroom Balti for £6.50, which was full of flavour, but portions could have been a little bigger for my appetite.(Although I’m pretty greedy to be honest!) With a décor improvement, Mustard café would stand out greatly in Yardley, and more people would realise how inexpensive food is here. But at the moment, Mint cuisine will be my chosen Indian restaurant at the Yew Tree.
