Most Disliked

While Herb & Spice is celebrated for its cuisine, there are minor drawbacks noted by visitors. The cash-only payment policy can pose challenges for some diners who prefer card transactions. Additionally, the limited selection of wines offered by the glass might disappoint those looking for more diverse pairing options with their meal. Some diners have also remarked on occasional wait times during peak hours, which could be improved with more staff during busy dining periods.

I can honestly say this is the BEST Thai food I have ever had. The flavours in every dish were authentic and food was all cooked fresh to order. There are fresh herbs and spices used in every dish and the best quality ingredients. The owner of this restaurant is a very kind and friendly man. He makes the time to talk to all customers and gave good guidance on what to order. If you are living in rugby or maybe just passing by, I would highly recommend you give this restaurant a try. You will not be disappointed!😊

I used to visit regularly over a 10 year period whilst living in Rugby. I now live elsewhere and haven't been for 10 years. However it was the finest Thai restaurant I ever visited, and if under the same management I would throughly recommend it.

The best Thai restaurant I've ever been to. We came 02/11/2022. Let's start with the food. The food was spectacular. It had so much flavour, texture, colour. It was fantastic. Just the right blend of spice and flavour. We shared the "bags of gold" as a starter, then went halves on "chicken Massamay" and "chicken nut" with the cashews, both with rice, and they were perfect. We came here on a rainy Wednesday night and it was very quiet, but the owner was so friendly and ready to serve us. He recommended food to us and talked to us about each dish. He clearly cared deeply and was so authentic. The restaurant is nicely decorated, the chairs were comfy, everywhere was clean, I was very impressed. Genuinely if you live in Rugby you should absolutely come and try this restaurant. We'll be coming here again 100%. Edit. Came back here 02/01/2023 and it was just as ace. This time we started with sharing the "chicken Wings" and then went halves on "duck curry" and "sweet and sour pork". This time we had some glass noodles along with the rice. Honestly I don't know how one place can get so many dishes spot on. The duck was so tender. The flavours so balanced. Go here and try it! Edit: Came back 08/04/2023 - still as excellent as always. Had the same dishes as the first time - chicken wings, bags of gold, chicken massamay and chicken nut - exquisite. If you've not tried this Thai, you absolutely should.

This is a brilliant Thai restaurant in Rugby, and the service and food are excellent. The manager/owner is the friendliest guy and every time we’ve been, he’s the one taking the bookings and food orders, bringing out the food and clearing away. He is lovely and very accommodating, and it is always a pleasure to see him. The food is also delicious and extremely good value. The set-menus are great and even better value than a la carte , and you get a great range of dishes. Previously we have ordered the ‘Prince & Princess’ set menu for the 2 of us, which is a lot of food! This time we just ordered off the menu. The prawns in the Black Pepper Prawn dish were very large, shelled, and it was a very good amount of prawns. The glass noodles are one of our favourite dishes and come with fried egg and vegetables. The ginger pork was very fresh, and you can’t go wrong with anything on the starter menu. The curries are also very flavourful and fragrant with a good kick to them. 2 starters, 3 mains, 1 side, 2 beers, and glass of wine came to £70. The only downside for me is that there are only two wines by the glass - either a Sauvignon blanc or a Merlot. The restaurant is cash only, or payment by bank transfer.
