Rare, unusual meats feature on the menu and Cyrus's Speciality Menu changes fortnightly to take advantage of the best the British seasons have to offer. A truly extraordinary menu that at any one time can include salmon from Loch Fyne and voluptuous king prawns from Madagascar. All dishes use only the freshest of ingredients, cooked with natural herbs and Cyrus's own spice blends.

Your Reviews of Cafe Spice Namaste
James Stephenson (27 March 2006)
I have eaten here on many occasions. Cannot praise it enough. From the excellent friendly service to the exquisite food. Do not expect your usual standard Indian curry house fare, this is head & shoulders above that. If you are a meat eater the lamb shank is delicious also the Scottish beef is divine (although can be a bit on the spicy side, be warned!!). The only negative is that it is not cheap however for a special occasion or a change from the slops that some curry houses serve it is worth the extra cost. Highly recommended!
