Quick info
About Deccan Spice
Deccan Spice is an Indian takeout restaurant on Plungington Road in Preston, with a menu that covers South Indian staples alongside more familiar fare. Idli arrives with chutney, and the kitchen also turns out poori and bonda, giving the daytime side a breakfast-leaning range. Chicken biryani anchors the main menu, and a weekly fry piece special rotates alongside it. The counter takes walk-in orders, and large portions come at a low price point. Live cricket matches play inside the room, and the format suits both individual collections and family meals picked up to go.

“Very bad toooo much spice food is about to spoil”

“Stopped here with 12 friends on our way to the Lake District. Hands-down the best South Indian food around! The prices are incredibly cheap compared to other places, and the portions are huge. Super aromatic and fluffy. The fry piece special meat was perfectly crispy and tender. Packed with savory flavors and had an amazing wok-tossed texture. Not greasy at all. The Poori was fluffy and fresh. The Bonda was perfectly golden and crispy on the outside. Feeding a large group on a budget is tough, but this place made it easy and delicious. Highly recommended pitstop! And we lucky enough that weekly special item fry piece chicken biryani is amazing loved it and watching live cricket match aswell.”

“Disappointing experience – found a hair in my food.I was really looking forward to my meal, but unfortunately, I found a long strand of hair deeply embedded in my food. It completely ruined my appetite. Food hygiene needs to be taken much more seriously here. I hope management ensures the kitchen staff starts wearing proper hairnets immediately.”
