Village Spice in short
Village Spice is an Indian takeaway on Woodside Road run by an active limited company, taking online orders with money off above a minimum spend [2]. The kitchen holds the top hygiene rating on the register [4]. It suits an online weeknight order for the family rather than a phone one.
Customers are split at 3.6 on Google across a wide base of reviews [5]. This review reads Village Spice as the discount-led online order: fine for a regular curry if the price is right. What counts against it is the second-lowest average of the ranked ten, pointing to uneven experiences. For an online order where the discount counts, it remains worth one try. One trial order settles the question either way.
The record shows an Indian takeaway on Woodside Road run by an active limited company, taking online orders with money off above a minimum spend [2]. The site pairs the order flow with a contact page, and the kitchen holds the top hygiene rating on the register [4]. That discount-led online setup suits weeknight family orders placed from the sofa.
The customer evidence splits: a wide base of Google ratings averaging well below the leaders [5]. Split averages read as uneven experiences — good nights and off nights under one roof [5]. Our read: worth one trial order where the discount counts, not a blind regular.
Our verdict
Our judgement: Village Spice suits you if you order Indian takeaway online and want a straightforward discount for doing so [2]. The 5 hygiene rating from June 2025 and a company record going back to 2018 sit behind it [4] [3]. What counts against it is the review average: 3.6 across 263 ratings points to uneven experiences [5].
