Harden's survey result
Summary
This “lovely local Indian” is “a proper restaurant in a converted old railway station” (and also has spin-offs in Newcastle and Hexham). “It’s a favourite to combine with a day in the Tyne valley, followed by a couple of beers, then an excellent curry here”. Book their well-known ‘Passage to India’ for £56.50 per person, including travel from Newcastle, orders taken on the train, meet-and-greet at the station, and your meal (not including drinks).
Summary
“Consistently excellent” local curry house which has spawned a couple of spin-offs in Newcastle and Hexham (badged Cilantro). From Newcastle, you can follow in Michael Portillo’s footsteps (on his ‘Great Coastal Railway Journeys’ TV Series), and book their well-known ‘Passage to India’ train service from Newcastle (which includes your meal, plus travel by train).
Summary
“Located in an old railway station” – this quirky curry house is well-known in these parts for its “quality Indian food”. From Newcastle, book their ‘Passage to India’ package, which includes your meal, plus travel by train!
Summary
An “impeccable Indian” set on the platform “in an old railway station” (customers of their Raj-style ‘Passage to India’ packages can arrive on-site from Newcastle or other Tyne Valley line stops via an escorted train service for full effect). The menu contains “interesting additional dishes reflecting the availability of fresh produce in Northumberland”. This is the original of a three-strong group spanning a Jesmond site (replete with railway carriage) and Hexham Latin American/Indian fusion spinoff Cilantro.
For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
