Spice of India

Set in the whisky-distilling town of Dufftown, Spice of India has earned a strong reputation across the wider Moray area, ranked among the top three restaurants in the town on Tripadvisor with well over a hundred reviews and a Certificate of Excellence to its name. The kitchen turns out generous, full-flavoured dishes cooked to order, and a fragrant Chicken Tikka Masala alongside richly spiced biryanis keeps curry lovers travelling in from miles around.

Run by a friendly, attentive team led by long-serving staff, it strikes a happy balance between a proper sit-down dinner and a takeaway parcel to carry back to your lodgings. Reviewers consistently praise the warm welcome, the generous portions and the depth of flavour, with several regulars calling it among the best Indian food they have eaten anywhere. There is online ordering for collection as well as dining in, making it an easy choice whether you are a local after a familiar favourite or a visitor working your way along the famous Speyside whisky trail and after a hearty, satisfying meal.
