Cam Spice – Great Eversden

Cam Spice in Great Eversden is one of the best Indians in Cambridgeshire

I’m just going to come out and say it – Cam Spice is the best Indian restaurant in Cambridgeshire!

It was another absolutely superb meal from the team this evening, as usual. That lamb Tawa from Cam Spice is one of the only dishes where I leave the restaurant dreaming about the dish for weeks after.

I also had the pleasure of trying out some dishes from their new menu, including the Chicken 65. It was succulent, flavourful, and beautifully presented. Easily the best Chicken 65 I have had.

Their daal was also on point with a rich flavour and creamy texture. A fine addition to our meals.

I took my mother along, who had the Tiger Prawn Kerala, which was simply out of this world! It was so good, in fact, that I kept stealing bits from her plate 😂

The mango and coconut really complimented the prawns. Everything was presented in a striking contemporary design that added a real look of class to it, yet at the same time the cost didn’t break the bank. The value and quality were in perfect balance.

The menu didn’t have a huge selection but you won’t be disappointed. They are clearly going for quality over quantity. It’s best to do a few things really well than have a lot of crud and filler on the menu. I really get the feeling that they would only put something on their new menu if they truly believed in it. This is a sign of a fantastic restaurant which believes in their cuisine.

The customer service and reception we both received was first class. Something we’ve come to expect from Cam Spice over the years. It really feels like a second home here with the staff all remembering your name and your favourite dish, even if your last visit wasn’t for months.

The restaurant is gorgeous too. Not just from the outside but inside. The bar has trophies from numerous awards spread around, with several Indian beers on tap. There is a lovely water feature behind it which you can appreciate as you stand at the bar. They’ve done wonders with such an old pub, as it somehow manages to pull off the trick of being traditional and modern at the same time.

If you haven’t been to Cam Spice then do yourself a favour and get down here. They are not only a credit to Great Eversden, but the entire county of Cambridgeshire.
