Visited this establishment recently with a group of friends. Conveniently located in the centre of Bideford with a view of the river. We were promptly seated and orders were taken soon after. A member of staff (I'm assuming she was a member of staff) wearing a hoody with her hood up took our order. I've not worked in hospitality but I'm assuming the attire needs to be smart?Food was good with the only downside being portion sizes and cold rice.Overall, a nice place to visit just a shame about the portion sizes.

Had a takeaway and to be honest very bland food, No flavour at all, I note the S in Spice is missing on the building signage but the whole of Spice is missing in their meals , The chicken was a little chewy, Everything was edible but only just, Sorry can?t

You can tell that all the food is prepared from scratch on the premises rather than bought in, even down to naans, bhajis and dips, and it makes such a difference. Unpretentious but comfortable, and with friendly and efficient staff, I have no hesitation in recommending The Spice.

Was down at Bideford on holiday and went in. Place clean and staff polite but the food not great. Poppadoms seemed stale and chewy. Chicken tikka starter ok chicken biryani had no flavour and sauce very runny. Chicken pathia had no flavour and the keema naan was small. Had bitter on the drinks menu but the young girl taking drinks order didn't know what it was so settled for a cobra. Not worth the money paidVaulted ceiling so on the chilly side

Vegetarian options: Did not enjoy the potato and cabbage curry. Not good vegetbles for a vegggie curryit was thin watery and lacking in flavour

Really enjoyed the meal, very attentive staff and a good selection.Table slightly too small, the food we had barely fit, but they are doing a great job of working with what they have.

Great little restaurant, really busy when we went so would recommend booking, the service was friendly and given how busy it was attentive. Best bits for us: peshwari naan, mixed starter, passanda curry.

To be honest, not even average quality Indian. Garlic chilli chicken had little flavour or heat. Pilau rice OK. Tarka daal little flavour. Small flavourless naan. No atmosphere, little interest from the staff. I won't be back.

Went here on the 10/10/23 in the early evening. Had as a main the Chicken Bombay. very good it was, chicken in quite a rich but not hot sauce with minced lamb and a hard boiled egg. Very tasty. Had a sag paneer as a side dish and a chapati. Decent meal I thought. Place doesnt stick out when you are looking for it on Bideford Quay, just a narrow doorway with a small glass panel to the side so its easily missed. The premises are on the first floor up steep stairs but there is a small electric lift at street level so I think a person with mobility issues would be OK. Premises seemed clean and tidy with reasonable toilets. I can recommend this place.

Ordered on recommendation but don?t bother! This was the worst food ever, completely inedible. Chicken Tikka was small dry hard chicken leg and the chicken jalfresie a brown soup and foul. Really disgusting,
