I enjoyed the £11.95 Banquet Offer, definitely one of the best value offerings in Whitchurch for dinner and the food was pretty good, no complaints with any of the courses, they also have Cobra on tap which is always a treat!

This restaurant serves beautifully authentic, Indian food. I started eating proper curries in the early 90's in Birmingham's famous "Balti Triangle" and can still remember that fantastic mix of perfectly cooked ingredients, balanced with spices to your exact liking. Once you found your favourite restaurant, you always knew you were in for a treat and could almost taste it before you arrived. My wife, son and I were having a short break in Whitchurch and asked at one of the local Pubs where we would find good Indian food. They were very knowledgeable and recommended two, depending on our preferred type of food. Based on their descriptions, we chose Spice Heaven. The meal was perfect and the closest I can remember having to my Balti Triangle experiences. The Manager and staff were also excellent. They knew their menu very well and couldn't do enough for you, but without being intrusive. We tried hard to think of any negatives, but failed to do so. As said by Arnie "I'll be back" !

Ordered a take out for a family event. last week - food looked good but was completley bland, I mean little taste or spice, the restauarnt was not busy and no one was waiting so they cant blame a rush. as this is almaost the last Indian Restaurant in they dont have to bother. Owner barley gave me a glace or thank you as I handed over the cash. If they cant bother, I can bother. Aldi do better tasting meals

We have hired a holiday cottage nearby and have used this venue twice via just eat for take away delivery. Really easy, swift delivery and couldn’t fault the food, it’s been superb both times. Only regret is we don’t live nearer to use this venue again. We’d definitely recommend to anyone looking locally. We ordered starters, 6 mains, breads and sides, all as expected and some free poppadoms too, with all the dips.

Superb! Came here with a bunch of friends. Really good atmosphere with friendly and helpful staff. Wanted to try something 'different', so ... Fish chaat starter - Great! Firm pieces of fish & lovely fresh/fruity flavours, served with a puri. Then Achar Gosht - rich pickle flavours with very tender & tasty lamb. Yum! Others in the group seemed equally satisfied with their choices, so a big thumbs up for Spice Heaven. To top-and-tail it with pappadum and coffee, check out the Banquet menu. Really good value. It's a 35-minute drive for me, but I'll make that journey at a moment's notice!!

Had a takeaway from here not so long ago. Food was okay, average at best. I had the Special Sagwalla - Prawns were oddly chewy but with a mushy inside, I had to sift them out of the meal, all the other meat was good though. Naan was burnt and tasted burnt too, not just on the edges. Delivery took over an hour too.

I'd driven past this place several times so decided to pay a visit with the family. The place has a nice comfortable atmos, but we were placed next to a busy internal doorway while other tables were free. Not really an issue, just a bit of unnecessary disturbance from passing punters. The service however was very swift and the food was agreed by us all to be particularly good and probably the best in the area. Beware the 'duvet' Naans though, they are delicious and huge. One per pair of diners is plenty. Bottom line is great food and service, good sized portions with plenty of meat and four very happy diners. Highly recommend a visit.

I have always found the service here to be exceptional and have visited many times in the past both dining in or collection of a takeaway The personal touch to the service makes you feel very welcome and the food is sensational at a very affordable price. Sadly the past 2 visits have massively changed my opinion and left us very disappointed and no option but to look for better Indian restaurants to use in the future. Our dining in experience was greatly tarnished by the level of service received as we had booked a table for 7 people but upon arrival it was set out for only 6 people. This was corrected by myself and not the owner by finding an extra seat and having to request cutlery etc for the missing place setting. Our orders were placed but took at least 25 minutes before we even received our starters, followed by our main meals arriving spread out and not all at the same time with 1 guest left out. The food was its usual exceptional standards but portion sizes had reduced, drinks were more expensive and tableware could have been a lot cleaner. The waiter continually monitored our eating pace and within seconds of finishing a course quickly removed plates etc. as were the empty drinks glasses but in some cases removed glasses when not finished leaving us holding on to our glasses in fear of them being swiped. Whilst the pricing is clearly displayed in the menu we were aware of our spend but upon receiving the restaurant receipt felt it was not justified on our occasion and left us feeling a little disappointed. Moving to a more recent experience where we purchased a takeaway online for collection this also was not great. The order was incorrect as were the quantities of the appetisers such as chutneys, poppadum's etc. How this can be wrong when its clearly ordered by the customer and printed in the restaurant is again poor service. I phoned the restaurant to advise of the mistake to which I got a response of "next time your here, remind me and I'll sort out a refund" Over the past 7/8 years we have enjoyed every minute of our visits or our takeaways but recently the business has changed and sadly for the worse This in our opinion is due to the introduction of 'Just Eat' orders rapidly coming in to the restaurant and it was clear to see the business was not coping and very few staff available. The online ordering machine was printing every few minutes throughout our visit and couriers racing here there everywhere to get these orders out asap. Whilst this is perhaps a great income for the business it has taken away the impressive service, personal touch and expertise of the staff. This contributes to mistakes leaving you with an impression that Spice Heaven is now more of a 'Fast Food' outlet rather than a fine dining Indian Restaurant.

A great atmosphere on a Saturday night with friendly staff. The food was good but doesn't reach the heights of the English Curry Awards restaurants that we are accustomed to. We would still prefer to travel to Pabna in Leek or Alessi in Audley for something really special. However, this is probably the best Indian restaurant Whitchurch has to offer and it is good value. For this restaurant to gain 5 stars from us the food needs to up it's game. Another merit for this restaurant is that it does deliver to Prees and the portion sizes are good for a hungry family.

A table for 9 was booked for the Indian meal. Plates were hot so our meal didn't get cold. The restaurant itself was not very warm inside. Possibly to do with the amount of times the door was opened for takeaway orders. The food was very tasty and the chicken in the curry dishes was very tender, unfortunately the Madras was not as hot in taste as it had previously been. For some reason the starters of 3 onion bhajis came with about a teaspoon of shredded carrot on the plate, no other salad. Usually there is iceberg lettuce, tomatoes and cucumber. Not sure if they forgot to put it on the plate or they are not putting it on anymore. Don't think we will be going back in a hurry.

Takeaway. Customer service left so much to be desired. Wasn't offered a drink. Interested in just getting your name and order. Food was not the best. Naan was soggy and tasteless. Tikka masala was not the best and the chips not so hot. Felt like I was in the way ordering this even though though the restaurant was quiet. I've tried.
