The White Hart - Réservation de table

Oh dear! Unfortunately we, a party of 5, had a very poor experience at The Spice Restaurant in Bideford. Our background is that we have recently moved to Devon and love to eat Indian/Bangladeshi/Nepalese food so had picked The Spice as our first local experience. Our booking was for 7.30pm on a Saturday night. We arrived about 10 minutes early and were promptly seated in the restaurant which was about 1/4 full (this was as busy as it got . Menus given, drinks were ordered and soon received. Our first disappointment was the house red wine, an average cost but it truly tasted like Ribena, not nasty but if I were the owner it would not be a wine I would choose to represent my restaurant with.

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.

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 paid Vaulted ceiling so on the chilly side

I feel this place gets a harsh view. We paid under £60 for two mains, breads , rice , two drinks an abundance of poppadoms and dips. Service was pleasant albeit a little slow but being a busy bank holiday with lots of takeaway orders I think you need to let somethings slide. Staff all really pleasant , food really tasty . No complaints! Réservez une table maintenant

I thoroughly enjoyed my dining experience at this restaurant. The staff was very attentive and the menu had a good selection of dishes to choose from. The only downside was that our table was slightly too small for the amount of food we ordered, but the staff did a great job of accommodating us despite the limited space.

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.

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 recommend

That was the worst flavourless curry I have ever had. I think I could have bought a supermarket curry sauce and had more enjoyment. The popadoms were the only good thing. Very watered down curries and burnt over cooked bhajis. Réservez une table maintenant

This restaurant is fantastic! It's always bustling, so be sure to make a reservation. The service is friendly and very attentive despite the crowd. Our favorite dishes were the peshwari naan, mixed starter, and passanda curry.

The food was delicious, but the restaurant was chilly. I had to keep putting on my coat to stay warm. There was no music, so you could easily chat without having to shout.
