We are absolutely bursting with pride and joy, and we have some incredible news to share with the Basingstoke community. Your favourite local spot, Spices and Spirits, has been honoured with not one, not two, but three prestigious awards, back-to-back!

This incredible winning streak is a proof of our passion for delicious food and heartfelt service, and it simply wouldn’t have been possible without you.

Here are the amazing honours we’re celebrating:

  • Restaurant of the Year at the National Curry Awards 2025: This is the big one! In a glittering ceremony held at the historic House of Lords in London, we were named the best in the nation.
  • Chef of the Year at the English Curry Awards: The heart of any great restaurant is its kitchen, and we are thrilled that our head chef’s talent, creativity, and dedication have been recognised with this fantastic award. It’s their passion you taste in every single dish.
  • Certified Premises by Award Winning Food 2026: This special certification is a mark of quality and trust, recognising our commitment to excellence in every aspect of our restaurant, from the kitchen to your table.

While these national awards are a tremendous honour, our biggest prize has always been the smiling faces of our guests. The constant love and support from the people of Basingstoke are the real secret ingredients to our success. Every time you choose to dine with us, celebrate a special occasion here, or even just order a takeaway, you are a part of our journey.

Adding to our joy, we have also been recognised by the “Three Best Rated” in Basingstoke Deane, which shows that our local community values what we do, day in and day out.

We want to say a huge, heartfelt thank you. You have welcomed us, supported us, and made Spices and Spirits more than just a restaurant; you’ve made it a community hub. This victory is not just ours; it belongs to all of Basingstoke.

Come and experience the taste that has won over the nation! We can’t wait to welcome you and share our award-winning food and hospitality with you soon.

From the entire team at Spices and Spirits, thank you for your love & support!
