Settle Spice

We visited Settle Spice as a family on a sunny Saturday afternoon, and from the moment we stepped through the door we knew we were in for a treat. The menu offered an impressive variety of authentic Indian dishes, each bursting with flavour yet perfectly balanced—not overly spicy, but with just the right kick. The portions were generous, the ingredients fresh, and the prices very reasonable, especially for a family meal out. The staff at Settle Spice went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. From recommending dishes tailored to our tastes to checking in on us throughout the meal, they were friendly, attentive and genuinely enthusiastic about the food they were serving. Our children, who can be picky eaters, declared the chicken korma “the best ever,” and my partner couldn’t stop raving about the lamb rogan josh. If you’re planning a trip to this delightful corner of North Yorkshire, do yourself a favour and book a table at Settle Spice. Great food, fantastic value and superb service—it’s a winning combination that we’ll be recommending to everyone we know!

A fantastic meal at the restaurant. All in our party of 4 had a great meal. Busy & good atmosphere on Christmas Eve. I have had takeaways previously but this was my first in restaurant meal. Now called "Settle Spice" & take your alcohol. Recommended.

Ordered a takeaway. Do not get the doner kebab. Consisted of 2 bits of meat and 12 chips in a bit of tasteless bread. Chicken tikka masala bland, chicken not seasoned at all. Poppadoms burnt. Watery mint sauce. Naan bread was the only semi decent part. Rang up to complain (never complained about a takeaway before) and was met with a “sorry, the boss has gone now” at 9pm on a Saturday night. Poor food, poor customer service. Disappointing waste of hard earned money.

The onion bhaji was not cooked well Staff at the counter was awful told us to sit like a dog then put our food on the chair next to us and walked of without saying thank you or anything. There was more bone than tandoori. The pickle plate wasn’t a pickle plate we got a tub of picked onions and that was it. Would never recommend to anyone. Overall extremely disappointed.

I ordered a meal here for collection this week and it was incredible! I never actually order food/takeaway but was feeling for some Indian food and I was not disappointed! I received lovely and polite service over the phone and was greeted warmly when I went to pick up the meal. The portions were huge, chapatis were fresh and the vegetable dishes flavourful. Definitely going back soon.
