Bombay Spice brings together the bold flavours of Indian and Bangladeshi cooking, with smoky tandoori grills, rich curries and a menu packed with house specials that go well beyond the usual favourites.

The Deshi Roast is one of the standouts, alongside the Shatkora Chicken, buttery Tandoori Murghi Masala and a mixed grill that's ideal if you fancy a bit of everything. Whether you're after a classic butter chicken or something you've never tried before, this is one that's well worth the drive.
