Spice Of India - North Devon

As advised by Spice of India, pre-ordered a takeaway for collection hours prior via Just Eat. One hour before the collection time the order was cancelled. Such dreadful service and the manager was not in the least bit interested when we called to question...the cancellation. Unless you are happy to be let down at the last minute don’t use Spice of India.

We always use Spice of India if we choose to have a takeaway. We have tried many of the dishes and have never been disappointed. Always great food.

So we stayed for a few days in Barnstaple and on the second evening we thought we should have a takeaway. We searched on TripAdvisor for a good local Indian Takeaway and settled on The Spice of India. We called and ordered “our usual” ..Poppadums and Chutneys, Chicken Chat and Onion Bhajee for starter, Chicken Pathia, Lamb Dhansak and a Chicken Korma for our son with a Pilau, Mushroom and Keema Rice. It was exactly. We got it back to where we were staying and the our son opened his Korma and we were all horrified. The chicken stank and our son described it perfectly: it’s the fake chicken you get in Sweet and Sour Chicken Balls! I was ok because I had lamb (well I hope it was! but my other half and son refused to eat theirs. We even laughed when, after minutes or so, the Korma Sauce was soaking in and it just looked like beige sparkly cubes that still smelled bad. I feel sorry for the people of Barnstaple if this is what makes a star takeaway.

Been a customer for many years and the curry gets better and better. Vindaloo is my favourite but all the curry’s are very true in flavour and spice, it is a shame they do not have a restaurant to sit in and eat, but for...the best takeaway curry in Barnstaple it’s a must.

Not good curry on a Sunday night . I think it must be the chefs night off . The microwave curries from Asda tasted better than the meal I had from here . Don’t order chicken it’s not real . Not a good takeaway
