Five Spice in Bromsgrove

Lovely location nice setting but not up to standard of other Indian restaurants I’ve visited. Service was poor as it took an hour for food to come out. Also nobody asked if we wanted anymore drinks even though they took empty glasses away. Unfortunately I wouldn’t recommend going. Unless you want to see the views.

Have driven past five spice plenty of times and always wanted to try it out, lovely looking venue and on arrival was nice inside. First impressions really good, seated quickly, nice pint and service quick. Poppadoms and dips were nice. Mixed platter starter was very disappointing, kebab seemed like it had been reheated, warm on one side and cold the other. Chicken tikka was ok, the other thing, not sure what it even was. Chicken tikka in some sort of batter seemed like it was refried, not great at all. No one asked how it was so didn’t complain about it. Fish tharkari we weren’t a fan of and I had the Bengali garlic chilli chicken which was alright. Rices were good, naan was alright too. Certainly wasn’t the advertised fine dining, although waiters good and efficient, wearing jeans and t shirts. Food very sub par and not cheap, felt like we had been robbed when we left, overall very disappointing and not up to standard of other Indians in the area.

Have visited previously, food and service were good as usual. We had a mixture of people in our group with different dietary requirements (meat and vegetarian) and all enjoyed their food. Lovely restaurant, very modern and clean.

First time here. Starters were lovely. Chicken Pakora for partner, Saag for me. We both had tandoori Chicken Dhansak with pilau rice. Always our main in a new restaurant a d it didn't disappoint. The one disappointing thing for us both were the poor quality paper napkins....surely proper cloth ones would fit this lovely place better!

Delicious curry, great flavours and very authentic. Would definitely recommend eating in the restaurant and for take aways.

Wonderful venue. It is now up there with the very best we've even visited. As a vegetarian the choice is sometimes a little poor but not at Five Spice- A huge selection of vegetarian dishes. The staff and management are amazing. And the food? Stunningly brilliant 👍♥️👍♥️

We arrived at 6.15 on a Friday evening and it was already busy, we shared the seafood sizzler, salmon was delicious, white fish ok but whatever was battered tasted as if it had gone off and was dreadful. The railway lamb was bland and the lamb tough. The mixed grill was all chicken with a lamb chop. Saag bahje was nice and the chapati freshly cooked. Thank goodness we had a £20 voucher as at £77 it was not worth it at all!!! On leaving an hour later the place was packed!! Can only think we chose the wrong meals!!

The standard of food has never faltered over several visits from Summer 23 till Jan 24! Huge kudos to the kitchen staff for maintaining such high standards. Love the restaurant specialties! Service is equally as good. Icing in the cake is the outdoor dining experience, wonderful views and sun trap during the summertime.

Second Sunday in a row for a family meal, excellent service, excellent food , definitely the best Indian restaurant for miles around. Would definitely recommend . Jackie Crowley

An Indian restaurant that really is hit and miss. Had a great takeaway one week but then a few weeks later really poor. So I’d say flip a coin and good luck!

Booked a meal here for the first time on Christmas eve with my husband. Really impressed with the restaurant, lovely decor, atmosphere and great food. Big car park and lovely setting, will definitely visit again.

We are local and were very disappointed! Relaxing dining, unfortunately not,… Yes, it’s busy, but theres a huge difference between ‘atmosphere’ and being ridiculously noisy! The food was well presented, but overly coloured snd lacked the depth of flavour expected from our chosen dishes!

I hired the sunset lounge for my 40th birthday party which was a set dinner for 45 people. Five spice provided great food and amazing service with compliments from all of my guests. Thank you so much

Have been wanting to come to the restaurant for a while. We finally decided to come today for late lunch. The experience it’s not been as expected due to unfriendly staff. We were asked if we had booked a table even though the restaurant was completely empt, we were taken to a table and the person who let us in was not friendly at all in fact he looked like he was doing us a favor by letting us lunch in. Same thing when we ordered our food. The food was nice and served quite quickly but I will not repeat the experience as don’t like to go to places where I am not treated with kindness.

Arrived to a big car park that had plenty of spaces. The buildings looked well maintained and had a big welcome sign .It comprises of bar ,dining tables and new side building with about 45 covers. At the outside there were another 25 coves that offered illuminated dining al fresco with lovely views. Additional covers to be found in other building. All tables were clean well presented.in all nice location with good interior and exterior décor. On entry we were greeted by friendly staff. we were shown to our table and served our drinks quickly. Menus looked a bit worn and could be replaced. we ordered our food and had popadom x 4 sea food platter to share for starters, chicken tikka for main, prawn tikka for main with rice and naan bread. additional drinks and cocktail. All food was cooked correctly. tasted above average and fair value for money. Drinks were correct served properly in correct glasses. Music was just a little on the load side but not offensive. good choice of relaxing music. Internal décor was new and well done. Food portions were very good and we were not rushed to our next course. waiters were dressed tidy but NOT in same livery clothing. All were polite and checked on us during our meal. At end of meal we sat outside to see the lovely view of the countryside. The bill was £79.00 all in and worth a tip. i will be returning here and will recommend this restaurant to my friends. well done to all. we had a fantastic evening. Food very tasty.

What a fab place. The food was great and the service. What a view from the conservatory area! An all round lovely restaurant. Definitely worth a visit if you haven’t been.

First time at Five Spice and came for my hubby’s birthday. The restaurant is really nice and in a lovely setting. The staff were very friendly and welcoming and the service was faultless. The food was absolutely delicious. We had Saag Bhaji Fritters and Jhinga Saag & Mushroom Puri for our starters. I had Railway Lamb Curry and hubby had North Indian Garlic Chilli Chicken Tikka for our mains, with sides of Lemon Chilli Fries Rice and Garlic Naans. The flavours were gorgeous and the meat so tender. Our waiter found out it was my hubby’s birthday and brought him a piece of chocolate cake to wish him a happy birthday. Such a lovely touch. We’ll definitely be going back soon and if it is as good as tonight, this will fast become our new favourite Indian & Bangladeshi restaurant.

Used Five Spice regularly a few years ago when we used to get delicious, medium spiced curries. However, the last 3 or 4 times we have used them the spice level seems to be either bland/no spice or blow your head off! What has happened to the lovely medium spiced curries we used to get?? I even asked at the time for a mild/medium dish, rather than a medium/hot. They replace it with a different curry to my request, which tasted bland. Can't fault the staff or the setting, other than we were put in the conservatory where we had to lip read to try & have a conversation, it was so loud! Spoilt what should have been a nice catch up with a friend. Won't be using them again which is a shame.

We were there to celebrate our wedding anniversary. Could not have had better service. The food was fantastic fast and hot. The waiters were very attentive nothing was too much for them. Have been coming here for some years. They only get better since the latest refit.

We came here for a family meal and were so happy with the food and service. The waiters were so friendly and accommodating, particularly a man called Maksum, he made the whole experience what it was and recommended the best dishes. The food, interior and...

Had a really enjoyable meal. Really friendly staff and good value for money. Nice atmosphere and very clean. Good range of food on the menu.

Delicious food and great service! I really reccomend you to sit outside as the scenery was stunning. Definitely coming again. 😁

Stunning vistas whilst you eat lovely food. Many different choices for where you eat within restaurant. Suiting all occasions. Food was great.

The view is amazing hence why I actually chose to take the family. As for the food, it’s not great at all. From the 6 curries we tried it seems every curry has tomato paste or something on it that make all taste the same....

One of the worst Indian curry ever !!! We travel the world regularly and this was bottom of the list. We want during lockdown twice and was excellent but this time round very disappointing. I guess the Chef or owners have changed. The entrance was...

If you haven't been yet then get yourself there...lovely food atmosphere and the setting is beautiful throughly recommend it

I need to express this! I’m a huge fan of Indian food! Gone all over Birmingham and when I tell you this is the number 1! The food is so good! So much flavour, customer service is 10/10 and also on top has an outdoors...

We’ve been here many times before so thought we would try again as it had been a while since we last visited. When we arrived at 630pm the restaurant was about a third full but when we left at 830 it was full. When the...

Food was AMAZING decor is very modern and toilets are very clean, would 100% recommend and will be returning. I had the duck and it was very very tender

Went last night, 9th May, a table for 6. Hadn't been for several years, but Five Spice is definitely now high on my short list of places to eat out. Everything was faultless, the food, the service, the location, and the ambience. It won't be...

This is our third visit to the restaurant. The new room for eating is really nice. So lovely to enjoy a meal with amazing views to look at! We hadn’t booked a table, but that wasn’t a problem. It was busy, but we were made...

Visited this restaurant for an early evening meal. What a wonderful experience. After the Poppadams, we started with the meat sharing platter, with absolutely 'the best' sheek kebabs! My wife then went for the Sizzling Duck bhuna, but I thought I'd go for something I'd...

Not my best meal I’m afraid , (railroad lamb curry ) swimming in far to much oil with very little that could be said to be a curry sauce or even resemble that flavour Sorry but enough to put us off returning again . Although...

We have been coming to Five Spice for years and the food has been consistently excellent. We visited last night as a party of 28 for my 30th birthday, and I was so happy with the service and quality of the food. The waiters were...

Exceptional early visit after the football. We had poppadoms , skipped starters and went straight for main. My normal go to is pathia, but I fancied a change. Aziz recommended the north India chicken tikka….. which was to die for ! Perfectly hot and spicy...

We were a party of six some had eaten at this restaurant before but my husband and I had not it was our first time. The food is excellent absolutely delicious and the staff are friendly and professional especially Aziz. If you are looking to...

Love this restaurant. After my restaurant in Barnt Green closed i was looking for one of simuler standard, im happy to say i found 5 Spice.

Not or first visit here but not disappointed. Visited on Thursday night with friends, service was excellent as always. Food was fantastic, I had the lime chilli chicken which in my humble opinion was one of the best currys I've had. Will certainly be back...

Lovely family mid week meal out, great tasty food, relaxed atmosphere and friendly staff. We will definitely visit again.

Driven passed 100s of times and finally visited, whilst the service decor and overall ambiance was great, the food was distinctly average, no wow factor or depth of flavour. For example the sauce tasted like a stock sauce (the kind you would put in many...

Been going here for many years and used to always be excellent. Last went a few months ago and food was average and my most recent visit food was poor. Portion sizes have definitely shrunk as has the menu. Certain pieces of chicken in my...

We went for a delicious breakfast at Cafe Five, which is the daytime offering at Five Spice. The service was friendly and fast. Lots of tasty looking things in the menu. I had the small breakfast and my husband had the large breakfast. It was...

Relaxing atmosphere, friendly staff and good service. Food was nicely presented and had good flavors throughout the menu. Very nice desserts

This part of the West Midlands is not short of good curry joints, but this place definitely excels, both in the range and the quality of food on offer. Decor and service are both superb. We have visited 3 times and have not been disappointed....

Stumbled across this as the local curry house to the campsite. And wow. What a place. Nice country views from our side. Good service all the way through. Saag bhaji fritters were absolutely stunning. An amazing starter. Meat & veggie platters also excellent. Bags of...

Great place for a quick bite to eat or a nice meal with family & friends. Good quality food at reasonable prices.

Great place to eat! Food 11/10 brilliant! Service was great.. all staff friendly and polite and very attentive. Excellent!

Not been here for a while, I think it's changed hands. The prices are far to expensive, but then I suppose they have to pay for the extension 🤔 Although a couple of the dishes were lovely I must say the portion size were very...

I absolutely love this place. Consistently amazing service and food. Been so many times. Love, love love it So easy to recommend

We visited for the early sitting for NYE with family. The food was as usual excellent as was the service. Many thanks for an enjoyable evening, see you soon.

Absolutely fabulous Saturday evening at Five Spice. The food was gorgeous, the team were friendly & attentive all evening despite being so busy and the atmosphere was great. Highly recommended, you won’t be disappointed!

So after driving past this place a millions times on New Year’s Day we made a booking to go and give it a try. So to start of the inside I found nice and pleasant and promptly shown to our table by friendly staff. I...

I went to this restaurant for the very first time this evening ( 19.12.21 ) with family having driven past many times so thought I’d give it a try. The overall experience was alright, the staff were nothing but friendly, helpful and attentive to be...

Heard good reviews from friends and family so decided to book, safe to say we were not disappointed! We were greeted and shown to our table. The food was absoutley amazing from the poppadoms to the main courses and sides. The pudding menu looked unreal...

We have been here 3 times recently and each time has been wonderful We have many Indian restaurants locally but Fivespice is absolutely our go to now 👍 🍛

This curry house is fantastic. If you are looking for large portions then this is not the place for you as portions are more of a reasonable size. Food is extremely tasty and they cater extremely well for coeliacs . I have been to many...

Best Indian restaurant and small prices.Great variety of dishes, Lovely atmosphere, very accommodating staff, easy to order online. My favourite so far

Great food and attentive service. We cannot fault the food and your staff, have booked for New Year's Eve,

Amazing Food , Amazing Atmosphere,. Been tonight for the first time. From beginning to end cannot fault a thing, first class, second to none. Staff very friendly and couldn’t do enough, thank you to Max and Walid who served us and were happy and friendly....

Not a good meal. Main tasted very sweet and unpleasant. Late delivery...staffing issues was the explanation. When I expected a refund for the meal I was advised that I could simply order from there again. Not something I wish to do. My money has been...

Booked for a family meal to celebrate a birthday. We were greeted and seated at a lovely table overlooking fields which was nice. That was the best part. The food however was very disappointing and of poor quality in our opinion. We eat out a...

Evening out two couples. Absolutely lovely night out. Food was amazing. Service was excellent and the staff were friendly and polite, especially Max. Nothing was too much trouble. Totally recommend, well worth a visit.

Hidden away just outside the village of bellboughton 5min off the m5 at j4 , this place is hidden gem , perfect service and the food is amazing , staff are welcoming nothing is to much of an issue , food 10/10 , service 10/10...

Visited for an evening meal in September 2021. The service was pretty good and the food didn't take too long to arrive, considering how many of us there were. They have a bottled ale 'Raaj IPA' which was spot on, and it was good to...

Finally got round to visiting this place . Planned to go last year but the pandemic put a stop to that . On arrival we were all very pleased with how nice the place looked from the outside . Inside was just as nice with...

Went there yesterday and the food was so yummy, the tastes were amazing. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Will definately be going again and recommending

Heard good reviews on this place. Was disappointed from start to finish. Had to ask for menus, and for orders to be taken. Some staff were not friendly at all. Food was just OK, nothing special. There was no leadership or coordination to the shift...

In addition to their normal Indian Cuisine, we discovered that this venue is now open for breakfast/brunch with outside covered areas that are Covid Safe and Child Friendly. We had a lovely family brunch with smoothies, coffees, toasted sandwiches and waffles that were all delicious....

Great food - aubergine and coriander fritters and like a chilli prawn wrap to start. None of the food was ‘oily’ - just very tasty. We arrived quite late on a very busy Saturday night and our table had had to be re-allocated. But the...

Gorgeous outside seating area with beautiful views of the countryside. Food is different aswell, not the usual burger and chips. Second visit here. We had loaded nan and chicken tikka salad bowl. The waitress was very good, friendly but not intrusive. If a friend hadn’t...

Went here for my wife’s Birthday. What a great experience. The views across the fields are fantastic and there are tables outside that take those in perfectly. The staff were friendly and helpful and the food was top notch. Big thanks to Dulal and the...

The lamb signature dish was disappointing. The sauce tasted like tomato passata. The lamb was dry. It was unrecognisable from the description on the menu and a long way from deserving its exclusive price.

Nice chicken dhansak not as good as Dine India in Bromsgove though. Service poor by obviously poorly trained staff, one tray of someone else’s food brought to our table. Waiter tried to place a dish on the desert spoon in an obviously crowed table. Clearing...

Have been in the past and not disappointed.service excellent covid rules very well done. The food was up to its usual high standard. Will defo be back..

Just visited the Five Spice restaurant this evening for the first time with the family.... Firstly the restaurant is well laid out to manage the current situation with regards to Covid, with a seperate entry/exit route for the main room. The staff were really lovely,...

Went to Five Spice for fathers day. There were four of us at 5pm. It was busy but to be expected we had never been before and we recommended. In a nutshell lovely restaurant and lovely interesting food. What let it down was the service...

We had a wonderful meal watching the sun set. Great service from Max, he found us the perfect table!

Haven't been to Five Spice for a while cos of Covid but was really impressed with everything last night. The outdoor area has been significantly expanded and developed and it all looks really smart.. The food was a tasty as ever and the service was...

Fantastic evening at Five Spice after being away for so long! Service was amazing, food came promptly and was awesome! All safety measures are in place with a fabulous outdoor area set up as well as tables indoors. We were made extremely welcome and look...

Service, food and views were unreal. Staff can’t do enough for you, views are amazing, unreal food and cocktails. Everything was 10/10. Dulal was brilliant, catered to our every need, max was also good. Would 100% recommend and we have booked again for next week.

My wife and I love this place. The staff are excellent and friendly and nothing is too much trouble. The food is always good, I ordered too much and had to convince the staff and chef that the problem was ME and not the food....

Visited Five spice for the first time . The food was exceptional and the service was first class. Fantastic waiter by the name of “Max” who couldn’t do enough to please us . Will definitely be visiting again within the near future .

Shelters and heaters was great for out door dining! Food was lovely. Staff were kind and friendly. Beautiful view.

Had a lovely experience at five spice, Dulal made us a bespoke dish that we asked for which was absolutely amazingly tasty!! The waiting staff the food the whole experience at five spice is another level compared. I would definitely recommend trying this restaurant and...

Delicious food, very pleasant and friendly staff ( we spoke to Jody and Sam) and a good option for something different to the usual breakfast options. Looking forward to returning and trying out their evening meals. Sam mentioned their vegan options which my wife may...

Lovely food, lovely evening, lovely outdoor area, lovely staff, especially max. Reasonably priced and lovely atmosphere

Stumbled upon this restaurant by accident on just eat on Christmas day. Only one that was open that delivered locally .. so glad we did.. amazing food and fantastic customer service. We have since used them every time we have an Indian take away. Chef...

Perfect and faultless take away meal, correct order was delivered on time, by a friendly and polite lady. Very nicely packaged, with a few freebies in for good measure, Food was beautifully cooked and tasted wonderful. Will definitely order again, and looking forward to visiting...

I visited five Spice for a take away for the first time and was very impressed with the food and service and will definitaley be visiting again.

We decided for a change that we would change where we ordered our food from. being a Friday night and we are still in lockdown . We have nearly aways used the same restaurant is we thought we would give Five Spice a try having looked at all the reviews on here ! We ordered onion bhaji starters and two chicken and mushroom balti's with pilau rice and Naan bread . The food turned up approx 3/4 hour later , delivered to the door and packed very nicely with a silver foil lid to keep it all warm . On serving the dishes up the pilau rice looked lovely and so did the baltic dishes . However on tasting the balti we both looked at each other in amazement to conclude that there was no taste to it at all , just a warm tomatoe taste as if they had just used a base sauce and nothing else . The chicken was lovely and beautifully cooked but again just no taste whatsoever . Because we hadn't eaten since lunch time we ate it just the same and sat there very disappointedly as its something we look forward to all week .Nothing else really to add but we certainly would not buy from here again , very poor to say the least , and after reading through various reviews we felt very let down . We did speak to the restaurant and complain, again much to their surprise. They were very apologetic, thank you

Another excellent takeaway from Five Spice. Always enjoy their food. Pre-ordered and delivered bang on time. Thank you.

The takeaway food we have just eaten was wonderful- as always- Five Spice never fails to deliver. It's so good that the owner (Sadiq), has such a philanthropic attitude to the current crisis. Thank you so much

The team at 5 Spice are always super friendly and the food is top notch as well.. Great for takeaway or eating in... Love it!

One of our favourite restaurants. Excellent Covid layout great food very attentive staff. All very pleasant. Highly recommended
