This place is
the best spot to all spice lovers.
Everything spice that you are looking for, they all have it and they
take it seriously. It is huge little shop that is full of different spices. Upon
entering the door, you will already smell the different spices, and the aromas
are really captivating. These shops have a special place in my heart and I will
definitely come back here again for the second time.

This is an UH-​mazing little hole in the wall stuffed to its rafters with a dizzying array of spices — the names of half I am unable to pronounce. Still, prices are reasonable, the server extremely knowledgable and helpful to the clueless, though she’ll happily let you poke around and stay out of her hair.
We got some dried jalapeño peppers, a shellfish mix, and what was for me, the greatest find. My favorite tipple of all time is the Bloody Mary and when I literally stumbled upon a tin of Bloody Mary mix, it was as if the heavens had opened and were shoving it in my face. How do you turn down an offering from the universe? The answer — you don’t. Now all I need to do is get some tomato and vodka alchemy going…

The Mexican drug cartels may rethink their business plan after seeing this shop. Tiny plastic baggies of powder all sold for exorbitant prices. And it’s all legal.
Yes, they have an exhaustive supply of exotic spices, so come here if you can’t find what you need anywhere else. Because if you can find it somewhere else, it will be less expensive.
Especially avoid the non-​Spice-​Shop items such as jars of preserved lemon, bottles of orange blossom water and rose water. They were all marked up at least double what you would pay for the exact same product at any Middle Eastern grocery store.

On our hunt for interesting new hot sauces we stumbled into the Spice Shop to see what was available. The smell is warm and intense when you walk in. They had a few interesting selections of hot sauces however we opted for the ULTRA DEATH sauce. We had also contemplated picking up some cayenne pepper, but we found the same amount in a grocery store at a third of the price. When we got home we pulled off the seal and found that a maggot had climbed under the seal. Not exactly appetising, however the cap was still tightly screwed on so we gave the bottle a rinse and hoped for the best. Wowza! Is that sauce hot! Nice to find a shop which has so many spice options, however for the price and the fact that we found a visitor on our hot sauce bottle, I don’t think we will be shopping there again. Although I wouldn’t be adverse to stopping in to smell all the spices.

This is my favourite spice shop ever! (well, apart from the real deal Souq’s and Bazaar’s)
If you need an unusual spice/​herb/​ingredient in London this place has it.
They also sell packets/​cute yellow tins of mixes that suite certain dishes (i.e. Carribean fish rub, Bombay potato mix etc.).
These little tins make fantastic presents.
Although you can now get most spices herbs in your local market/​supermarket, this place is worth checking out for it’s gorgeousness!
It is also conveniently located across the road from the ‘Books for Cooks’ book shop!
RECOMMEND!

Pricey, yes, but if you’re looking for something special, something you seriously can’t find in any other shop in London, this is the place to get it. We walked away with £20 worth of goods and could have easily spent more if we didn’t tell ourselves to stop. Egyptian dukka, nasi goreng seasoning, Lebanese seven spice… this must be where Yotam Ottolenghi gets all of his spices. If they don’t have it, it probably doesn’t exist.

For my brother, this shop would be porn. Due to the over use of crushed chillis in all his cooking and the amount of tabasco we will splash onto the most tasty dishes, he has killed off almost every last taste bud in his mouth.
An Aladdin’s cave of flavours, you’ll find rose buds, spices, herbs and some unusual ingredients that you won’t get anywhere else in the city. It’s pricey, but that’s what you have to pay to get this kind of selection. Service is fun and honest and the lady in the shop is more than happy to help you if you ask nicely.
If you are in the area, and an avid cook you really must pop in. Even if it’s just to have a snoop around and a sniff!

Every now and then a girl needs some devil’s penis chilli, and this is the place to come for it. The Spice Shop stocks every powder you could possibly imagine for an eye-​watering, throat-​searing, blow-​your-​head-​off curry.
The spices here are probably overpriced, but what I love about the place is the riot of colours and pungency that assaults your senses the moment you step through the door. It’s such an unfamiliar sensation when we have got so used to overpackaged, often flavour-​free, scent-​free so-​called ‘fresh’ produce stocked by supermarkets.
After a visit here you’ll be able to experiment with all sorts of spices you’ve never heard of, although be warned, the devil’s penis chilli is hot hot hot!

Der Laden sorgte bei mir für totale Reizüberflutung, genau wie BfC gegenüber. Lebte ich in London, wäre ich Stammkundin, denn in meinem Heimathafen wäre ich lange unterwegs, um die Auswahl zu bekommen, die ich dort habe.
Der Laden ist winzig, mit einer Riesenauswahl. Ich bekam schon beim Anblick der frischen Curryblätter Schnappatmung — wer meine Hamburger Curryblatt-​Odyssee kennt, weiß warum. Ich ärgere mich, dass ich nichts von den getrockneten persischen Limonen mitnahm, aber ich wusste auf die Schnelle nicht, was ich damit anfangen sollte.
Einziger Minuspunkt ist die fehlende Zutatendeklaration auf den Gewürzmischungen.

What an amazing place to go and just explore the world of spices!!!
I found this while walking on a Saturday afternoon at Portobello Rd in Notting Hill. Love this place! There so many things you can possibly buy here — in terms of spices.
I would definitely stop by here every time if I had a chance to come back to London.
Miss you London!!!

Quite pricey but if you are looking for a rare spice mix such as Yemeni zhug for instance then this your place to go. Otherwise I would shop in Indian grocers who sell big bags of spices for less dosh! There was some tired looking jalapeños but they had fresh herbs and spices. Finally this shop is not for the claustrophobic as it’s so tiny! But if they don’t stock it then it just don’t exist.

One of London’s best independent retailers. As all the other reviews have said, they have almost every spice you could possibly need.
The more standard mixes such as Cajun are great and far better than the supermarket standard, but when they come into their own is on the more unusual mixes. The seaweed salt, Za’tar Mix, and strange unheard of chillis are all worth traveling for.

Von dem Shop hatte ich mir nach den Bewertungenhier und auch in anderen Foren echt was versprochen. Leider war’s– um es freundlich zu formulieren — das totale Kontrastprogrammm zu Books for Cooks, das genau gegenüber liegt:
Extrem unfreundlich, man hat die Ratscherei der Besitzerin mit irgendeiner unsichtbaren Person ganz offensichtlich gestört. Die Auswahl fand ich auch nicht berauschend, im Prinzip bekommt man die angebotenen Gewürzmischungen auf fast jedem Markt bei den Gewürzständen. Ich wollte was richtg scharfes, bekam nur die maulige Info: Was scharf ist steht drauf.
Nie wieder, soviel ist sicher

A great little shop that packs just about every spice imaginable. Walking through the front door, the smell of spices makes you feel like you are in the spice markets of Morocco or Turkey. It is charming, a little cramped, but always a delight.

I found the spice shop many years ago when visiting London. On every return trip to London I now stop by The Spice Shop. It is a must when in London.
Crazy you say? Making a special journey here when traveling from The States? Well, the prices are incredible, the quality the best and the selection of obscure spices is amazing. However, the reason I come back is for saffron and vanilla beans. Amazing quality and much lower prices than anywhere I have found in The States
The Spice Shop will always hold a special place in my heart.

I stumbled across The Spice Shop just as my cravings for yogurt coated banana chips were getting unbearable. There in front of me on a table outside the shop were packets of dried fruit and indeed amongst them my banana chips. I call that fate.
Then the last time I popped in to buy some Thai soup paste I walked out straight into an old friend I had not seen for years, I think there must be something about this shop.
Other than being home to freaky coincidences, The Spice Shop is amazingly well stocked, selling unusual cooking ingredients and so much more than just spices.

When you walk into this little shop you will be blown away by the smells. It is packed from the floor to the roof with spices. Very colorful and unpretentious shop with skillful staff who are ready to help you even with your recipes.
This is the mecca for the spice lovers as I can guarantee, what ever you are looking for, this shop has it. That is the speciality, and they take it seriously.

Have you ever seen a recipe but never actually made the dish because you could not find one of the obscure spices? Those days are over because Notting Hill’s Spice Shop has a huge variety of spices from around the world. Step inside the tiny shop crammed with jars and sachets and your sense of smell is immediately heightened. I love the bags of dried fruit (the mango strips are really good) and nuts displayed outside the store. The perfect healthy snack to much on while I’m wandering around the market. The store also has a market stall nearby at the weekends.

I love the spice shop — I had to find some kecap manis (an Indonesian sweet soy sauce) for a recipe the other day, I must admit I did not think the spice shop would have it, but they did. Spice up your cooking and your life by popping in.

Dieser kleine Shop liegt in einer Nebenstrasse der Portobello Road, gegenueber gibt es die passenden Kochbuecher. Ein paar Haeuser weiter befindet sich der Travel Book Shop, der den Film Notting Hill inspiriert hat.
Hier gibt es einfach alle Kraeuter und Gewuerze, die man sich nur wuenschen kann. Viele Gewuerzmischungen gibt es nur hier, wie den wirklich sehr empfehlenswerte Harrissa-​Mix. Alles ist lose oder in niedlichen Dosen erhaeltlich — perfekte Mitbringsel aus der Multikulti-​Metropole.

Agree with the reviews so far, this is the Spice store.
I live in East London and many stores have all the spices one needs to cook indian. in china town there are stores where to buy chinesse and thai, but in this very store in Portobelo there are spices, herbs, pastes and curries from all over the world.
Another point is the staff. Try to ask something in a Thai store. they may well grunt at you in a this-​food-​is-​not-​for-​you fashion. Conversely, you will be advised about anything in Spice Shop. I have been just once, but I really need to come back soon to stock some stuff i would not find anywhere else.
I could not say is cheap though, but, i guess when someone is determined to try new things and get hands-​on to do sexy food a few quid is irrelevant.

Just walking in here is a treat! The spice shop stocks surprisingly spices, from all over the world. I was completely overwhelmed by their selections. They don’t just have basic spices and herbs, they also have spice concoctions for particular recipes, or flavours, and every little bag of spice comes with instructions for cooking on the back. It’s extremely inspirational! The staff are always so helpful as well. Might be a good idea to pop into Books for Cooks across the street to get some recipes, and then go to the Spice Shop who will no doubt have everything you need.
