Spice Hut

Considering the fact that this place calls itself a café despite clearly being nothing of the sort, the claim it makes to being ‘1^st choice for Indian and Italian takeaway’ almost asks to be taken with a pinch of salt. It’s a good job too, as this curry/​pizza/​kebab joint is mediocre at best. The surroundings are dingy and a little grubby, while the staff are surly and occasionally intimidating; all of this would be excusable as par for the course in a takeaway if the food was passable, but the vegetable korma I had from here recently was bland and chewy with far too few vegetables, and I have heard similar comments from friends who have eaten here. With so much choice in Armley and many companies elsewhere in Leeds that deliver to this area for free, there’s not really much need to eat here unless you’re passing and about to drop dead with hunger. On the plus side it’s cheap, even by takeaway standards, although this fully reflects the quality of the experience.
