Spice Merchant
Spice Merchant Beaconsfield is our prestigious flagship Indian restaurant, located in the historic area of Beaconsfield Old Town in Buckinghamshire. Since opening in 1982, Spice Merchant Cookham (formerly Cookham Tandoori) has earned a superb reputation for fine Indian cuisine in Berkshire. As the eldest restaurant in the group, Cookham initiated the success for Spice Merchant Group and continues to draw crowds from across Berkshire and beyond.

As our picturesque riverside restaurant, Spice Merchant Henley has a lot to live up to. Located in a traditional, rustic-framed building and alongside the finish line of the Henley Royal Regatta, the restaurant boasts a glamorous dining environment for you to enjoy.

We went here for my mothers birthday. The team here went above and beyond to ensure she was comfortable (kept away from the air conditioning and provided a heater) (she’s very fussy!), and that we felt special with a complimentary drink and cake. The service was excellent, and the food was amazing. Highly recommended!

Large restaurant. Usual menu selection of food with 20+ specials. I've been in a few times over ten years and never been disappointed. Equal in standard to other establishments close by.

Excellent meal, two chef's specials plus three side dishes were all freshly cooked and very tasty. Well presented and great service. Having been to a couple of other Indian cuisine restaurants in Marlow and Cookham this is definitely the better option. Would highly recommend

Fabulous Indian themed free flowing prosecco afternoon tea. The food was excellent, very generous portions (we took the excess home in containers). Fantastic value for money. This offer runs until the end of March and you pay a £10pp deposit. I would thoroughly recommend it.

Very disappointed in our takeaway, asked for no coriander and arrived covered in it, making it inedible for me. Also prawn dish had just three small prawns, drowned in sauce, and at nearly £12, that’s not good value. I sent feedback at the time and received no response.

The worst Indian place I have ever been to. We arrived as per the booking at 8:30 and still had to wait for the table to become available. We asked for still water and they brought sparkling water twice.
We ordered the starters but had to wait for an hour for the food to reach our table. The chicken wings were burnt but marinated so much so you couldn’t taste the black/burnt skin of the chicken.
They said they had run out of Onion Bhajee, and they offered a very dry and tasteless Pakora which I could not eat. The Peshwari nan was black underneath, as I took a bite, I realised it tasted burnt

So my sister highly recommended this place to us to the point where she ended up buying us Jasmine Afternoon Tea gift vouchers. My wife and I booked in for our afternoon tea today and unfortunately it was a little disappointing.
Points to note:
# There is limited parking around the restaurant as there is no dedicated parking for the restaurant. It took us a while to find parking but we eventually did on one of the side streets.
# The afternoon tea was between 12pm – 3pm, we booked in for 1.30pm and started our afternoon tea. When the waiter brought over the food, the presentation looked great
