CATEGORY · RAINY DAY APPROVED

Indian & South Asian in Newcastle

Newcastle does Indian food well, and you barely need to leave the centre to find it. Sachins on Forth Banks is the classic curry house choice, high chairs on hand for younger diners. Round on Grainger Street, Dakwala Bombay Canteen keeps things quick and plate-based, while Mowgli on Nelson Street does Indian street food in small sharing dishes, useful if your table has different appetites. None of these are far apart, so it comes down to style rather than distance. Mowgli and Dabbawal High Bridge, tucked near Grey Street, both suit sharing plates and are wheelchair accessible, good for a relaxed sit down with older kids who like picking at different things. Sachins is the steadier option if you want a proper curry rather than small dishes. All four have toilets and food on site, so a last-minute stop works without much planning.
