Quick info
About The Jaipur Spice
On Busby Stoop Road in Thirsk, The Jaipur Spice is an Indian restaurant that takes walk-ins rather than reservations. The kitchen runs Indian cuisine through its regular menu, with a Wednesday banquet night and a Sunday banquet deal offered as set spreads on those two evenings. Diners arrive and are seated as tables become available rather than booking ahead. The banquet format gives regular access to a wider spread of dishes than an a la carte order might cover on other nights. The address sits within the Busby Stoop Inn on Busby Stoop Road, placing the restaurant inside that building.

Customer Review Summary
Diners return most for the curries, with the duck curry and the chilli tikka masala named specifically, and one reviewer calling the pickle tray the best they had ever had. Others describe a range of curries as fresh, fantastically seasoned and subtly spiced, and one calls the menu among the best they have seen, with Bangladeshi dishes alongside the Indian ones. The banquet deal comes up repeatedly, with reviewers calling it a bargain and the prices unbelievably good. Staff are described as friendly, chatty and helpful with recommendations on hot, spicy and mild dishes. Several families return for birthdays and celebrations, and one mentions a free slice of chocolate cake and two shots for a birthday. A large group that pre-ordered says staff made sure each person got the right meal. No reviewer raises a complaint. One late arrival says the staff reopened the entire restaurant to seat them.

“Why didn't I come here sooner. I've been to Thirsk so many times over the last 7 years and decided to call in here. X4 of us had a meal on a Sunday, 6.30pm.... very busy, got quieter after 8pm. Quality. Loved it. In the words of Arnie "I'll be back" Banquet deal is a bargain.”

“10/10 food. We chanced a walk-in on a Wednesday for the banquet night, as it was highly recommended by a friend. It was busy but we were shown straight to a table big enough for the two of us and a baby. The chilli tikka masala is amazing as was everything else we ordered. The staff were lovely and chatty. And the price was unbelievably good!!”
