The Railway Spice

Fabulous restaurant with amazing attentive staff. The food has never disappointed and great value for money. Back for the first time since COVID restrictions and everything felt super safe, one way routes, staff in masks, hand gel available entrance and exit. We requested a separate room due to vulnerability within the party and this was no hassle. Great evening had by all - Thankyou!

I was in Whitchurch visiting family for 2 weeks & had originally been recommended another curry house, which I had eaten at a few nights earlier. However that place was closed so when we wanted another curry this seemed to make sense as I was staying in town & this was only a short walk. The other place was Spice Heaven, & having eaten at both, I literally can’t separate them. Even the garlic naan was humongous here like at Spice Heaven. Perhaps if you’re “eating in” then this one shades it a bit, as it’s a really nice place & a bit more spacious than spice heaven. But if it’s just takeaway, based on the dishes I ordered (Chicken Jalfrezi & Prawn Madras), I literally can’t separate them. If I lived in Whitchurch with food as good as these two curry houses, I’d be obese!

We went on a Tuesday night, which was banquet night. Poppadoms and pickles, a choice of starters, a choice of mains and rice, chips or naan. Then finish off with a brandy, Bailey's, coffee or ice cream. All for £9.50. I chose chicken pathia, very tender chicken, could not fault my meal at all. Drinks are a little expensive though. A jug of water is free though!
