Spice Exchange — Restaurant in Cheltenham

The menu at this restaurant is incredible—there were so many amazing dishes to choose from that I had a hard time deciding! The food was absolutely outstanding—10/10 for both taste and authenticity. We started with the chicken pakoras and fish pakoras, which were simply the best I’ve ever had—crispy, flavorful, and mouthwatering.

For mains, we tried a variety of naan and curry dishes, and every single one was perfect. The meats were cooked to perfection, tender, and full of flavor.

The service was exceptional as well. The waitstaff were polite, friendly, and knowledgeable, even helping us choose some of the best dishes on the menu.

The interior had a stunning, fancy hall vibe, complete with beautiful Christmas lights that created such a cozy and festive atmosphere. We ate to our hearts’ content and thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

We’ll definitely be coming...

If you like sugar in your food, this is the place...

My Chicken Makhani was full of coconut and almonds and looked like it would glow in the dark...this was the menu description,

“Made with fresh cream in a savoury sauce with tomato base, garnished with fresh coriander”...

My saag paneer was just as bad...full of sugar..

The water and beer were good though...

Others in our group had similar experiences..either full of sugar, or looked straight out of a tin...

Even when we raised our concerns, we were dismissed with, “this is how we cook it here”. Even when we explained that the description didn’t match the dish presented - same excuse...

Don’t go here unless you like over sweetened and bland food...my main meal tasted like...

We were staying in our Motorhome at Cheltenham race course for one night, and wanted something for dinner. It was after 8pm, so opted for delivery. After 15 minutes looking online we chose Spice Exchange. We were not disappointed. The call was answered by a well mannered young man. Order taken and he took time to check our delivery location. Paid by card over the phone. Food delivered within the 45 minutes we were advised. It was delicious. Chicken Korma and chicken Jalfrazi, both with pilau rice. We ordered direct and not through any of the apps. This way the business gets the full amount due and doesn't lose extortionate commission take by Ubereats and Just Eat etc. If we would definitely order from here again if we are...
