Went for a quick lunch. Great location, good atmosphere and service.. amazing food
Rajasekar S — Google review
Went for a quick afternoon lunch, and was very pleased with the service and hospitality from staff. One of the male staff wearing the checkered shirt even went as far as getting our cutlery and making sure we had everything we needed. I feel this would have been a 5 star visit but as I entered the women’s toilets I was slightly disappointed. One of the locks was broken and all behind the sinks had not been wiped.

Food was absolutely lovely. I had the medium spice butterfly chicken with chips and Coleslaw. Interior of the restaurant is inviting and the staff were lovely and friendly. You have to order your food at the counter which is great as you can pay there and then and you don't need to wait for the bill at the end when you have finished your food. Great place and good location.

A regular at this Nando’s and thought I’d leave a further review after trying the new loaded fries. Haven’t been in for a few months and was greeted by Norman who is probably the best host I’ve met in Nando’s. He was friendly, polite, couldn’t do enough for you, and best of all it came across as very genuine. I’m pretty sure he might have even went to Tesco just to get me some malt vinegar when I couldn’t find any with the condiments! We were handed a leaflet with a photo of the new loaded fries on them and I couldn’t wait to try them. The fries themselves were brilliant. Some of the tastiest I’ve had. The chips themselves weren’t hot, but warm enough to eat. I expect this was due to the time preparing the wraps we also had as the cheese had melted on top. The wraps were disappointing on this occasion. I usually get a double, but got a single breast on this occasion. The wrap had 4 bits of chicken in about 2cmx1cm? This might be normal, but it did feel like I had more bites of a lettuce wrap than a chicken one. - you can see the 4 bits in the photo. I’d have usually dropped a star for the food on this occasion, but since the host was so good it’s getting 5 overall.

Chicken restaurant
Fast food restaurant
Popeyes Louisiana Chicken is a fast-food chain that brings the flavors of Louisiana to its menu, featuring spicy fried chicken, biscuits, and various sides. Their signature dish is the freshly prepared 100% British Chicken, marinated for 12 hours and hand-battered with buttermilk for a satisfying crunch. The restaurant gained fame for its chicken sandwich that caused a stir in 2019. Customers praise the great service and delicious food, particularly highlighting the flavorful chicken burger.
The chicken here is absolutely delicious—perfectly seasoned, juicy, and cooked to perfection. The portions are generous, prices are fair, and the staff are always friendly and welcoming. Easily one of the best chicken shops around—I’ll definitely be coming back! Special Thanks to the young asian lad who was polite and processional (25/08/25 @6pm) who served us

Food was decent, whole family enjoyed it, but it is what it is, a fast food chicken place! Prices were good, coming in at about £34 for the four of us (and I'm a big eater), atmosphere is what you'd expect really, nothing spectacular but they do table service and a refillable drinks station! I'd probably go back if I fancy something quick and pretty nice!

I recently visited Popeyes🐔 and had a fantastic experience overall. The chicken 🍗 was absolutely 😋 and flavorful, with the perfect balance of crispiness and tenderness. Every bite was tasty 😋 and satisfying, just as I expected from Popeyes. What really stood out during my visit was the excellent customer support and service. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made sure I had everything I needed. They were quick to take my order and ensured I felt welcome throughout my time there. The positive attitude of the team made the experience even better.🤗 However, I did notice that the washroom🚹 cleanliness could use some improvement. It had a slight smell and could have been fresher. While it wasn’t a major issue, it’s something that could be improved for a better overall experience. Despite the minor issue with the washroom, the food and service were top-notch, and I would definitely recommend Popeyes🐔 for anyone craving tasty chicken 🍗. I’m sure they’ll address the washroom issue soon, but the great food and amazing staff made up for it!👍🏻

First time trying this place. Used self service station for my order. Only payment is card. You grab a table number and sit down. Your order is brought to you. The food was flavoursome and had a nice taste. My chips was cold but hey you expect that from fast food. My chicken was hot, it did have an after taste of grease tho. The restaurant was clean but toilets very dirty.
Scott — Google review
This place has gone downhill! I ordered a large spicy chicken box meal which had no sauce and no pickles inside the burger (as it should). The chicken itself was not cooked properly because it was still drenched in oil (meaning the oil wasn’t hot enough when the chicken went in) and it wasn’t crispy, just oily. I’m actually shocked and annoyed I paid ~ £12 for this meal, to be left completely dissatisfied.. never ever going again. You’re better off going to your local Dixy Chicken.

First time here, busy bank holiday Monday. Kids have eaten here before and requested it. Really enjoyed the food! Had a classic stack meal - really tasty! Serving staff were extremely helpful and attentive, and they were tidying up as quick as possible to clear tables. They were also very helpful when extras were needed. If you are looking for tasty fast food that's filling, and decent amount for the money (3 hungry teens!) I would recommend this restaurant.

Been meaning to go to Saji’s for some time. Heard good things about it and we weren’t disappointed. Went with hubby and three kids. Hubby loved it and keeps going on about how good the food was. Had the lamb handi, duck curry, chips, chapattis, garlic and chilli naan, rice and mixed grill. Oh and fresh poppadoms with pickle tray. Portions were great. Shared a mixed grill between the five of us. Couldn’t decide on a favourite dish, we loved everything. So fresh and tasted great. And service was amazing too. Price was very reasonable. Will definitely be going back.

Visited this place upon the recommendation of a friend, was booked in as part of a large party. Table was not ready or prepared for our arrival and thus were still putting it together when they took us to the upstairs room, despite it being booked 3 weeks before hand. We took our seats, waited 20- minutes for the menus, then it was another 40-50 minutes before they came back to take our food order. Waited half an hour for the starter and then another 50 minutes for the mains to be served, by which point it was nearing 10pm. In the entire time we were there, no one came round to take a drinks order, most brought their own alcohol as they don't have a licence to serve it. However some of us would've liked to order soft drinks. I walked through the downstairs of the restauraunt several times and it wasn't busy, there were enough staff to wait the tables but some were seemingly wiping plates......yet no one attending to customers upstairs. There was no communication from staff, the young waitresses were run ragged. You want to be respectful to the staff, had requested to speak to the manager 3 times to raise concerns around the wait and some issues with the food being served and have still yet to. In the end I had to cancel my main meal because it was too late at night in which to eat a large dish. I'd noticed the other similarly large parties were waiting quite some time for their food to be served, speaking to a guest at another table....2hrs for their mains to be seved to them. When some of us got our mains it was served piecemeal, with dishes and side plates missing. It could naturally be addressed if there were staff around in which to ask, or if there was communication from the staff. The food quality itself was inconsistent, some of the dishes like the onion bhajis were sublime, the prawn cocktail was laced with too much vinegar and below in the photo is supposed to be a "king prawn butterfly", having compared against how its made in other restuaraunts seems to have been made half hearted. There were a litany of failures this evening, no communication from staff, inconsistent food quality, no drinks order taken, lack of preparation for bookings with a large party, complete ignorance to customers in the upstairs rooms. In short I would recommend you spend your money elsewhere.

We ate here as a party of 4 for my nephews birthday. The food here is outstanding, it was absolutely delicious.

The food here is astounding and you can tell its fresh ingredients made by kitchen staff that take pride in making good food. There is a taste to the food I can only describe as that savoury fresh hotness that you get from good quality oil being used to cook food on a good hot cook top. The battered fish is really moist without being soggy

My wife and I organised a 1st birthday party for my daughter. We invited around 40 people and had a wonderful time! The management were accommodating and helpful and I can't recommend this venue higher for small intimate functions. They even helped with the music difficulties I was having. The food was very tasty and everyone commented on how delicious it was. There was more than enough to eat and it was hot and on time. The starters were chicken, lamb kebabs and fish pakoras. The mains were chicken curry, lamb curry, dhaal and chicken biryani and naan. The dessert was gajerla and ice cream. It was all very tasty. The room was warm and the management were kind enough to let us go the night before to setup the decorations. The party was a hit and we were not pressurised to leave at a certain time which was great as some family members had travelled from other cities and wouldn't stop talking to eachother. The party started at 1pm and I didn't leave at the end til around 7-8 ish. The staff were happy to clear everything up which was an added bonus. I can't heap enough praise on the staff who did their best and served us the best they could. The price was reasonable and better than other venues. I would definitely use this venue again and would recommend it to anyone.

Raval Indian Brasserie & Bar in Newcastle Gateshead offers a modern and sophisticated setting for Modern Indian fusion dining. Located in the heart of Newcastle upon Tyne, it has secured four national titles and is celebrated as the unrivaled champion in Northeast England. The restaurant is centrally located near popular landmarks such as Hilton Hotel, Glasshouse International Music Centre, and Newcastle Quayside.
I've just returned from a meal here with my girlfriend. From the moment we arrived, we were made to feel so, so welcome. The staff we absolutely incredible. We ordered the Royal Platter which they presented as multiple courses and they were so kind to add some complimentary poppadoms with the most delicious pickle trays I've ever had. They also very kindly provided some complimentary rice and garlic naan to accompany our meal. These all complemented the meal spectacularly. When the main event arrived, spread out in a manner where we could really enjoy it, it was stunning. The lobster tasted fresh and because it was a young lobster, the meat just melted. The meats were also good. If I had any complaint at all, it is that the seekh kebabs seemed a little overcooked. That said, the flavours were still delicious. We debated whether we could fit a dessert in. I raised my penchant for gulab jamun at the table and when it was the first thing the lovely waiter suggested, we immediately decided to share a portion. They were served hot with ice-cream and it was delectable and just right to finish off our meal. This is my new favourite restaurant in Tyne and Wear and we will definitely be returning. It's also somewhere that I'll be proud to bring business colleagues!

We were served a vegetarian feast in a calming, welcoming environment by conscientious and attentive waitstaff at Raval. We were assisted in ordering by the manager, who guided us based on our preferences and we were not disappointed. The Batata Bonda are not to be missed—light, crispy, and perfectly savory! Otherwise, the Panch-Mel Dal was the standout of our main dish choices, although all were memorable and delicious, including vegetable biryani. Highest recommendation for both food and service!

Ordered by Deliveroo 3 dishes Chicken tikka masala, prawn gravy, paneer masala, all are sweet, I still can not process my Chicken tikka masala is sweet like sugar and curry doesn’t look what I saw in pictures. Disappointed beyond imagination. Ruined my dinner with friends. I WILL NOT RECOMMEND THIS TO ANYONE EVER.

Immediate impressions were good when greeted at the door and quickly taken to nice table. The service was excellent throughout. However, what stood out was the food which was delicious, fresh and one of the best Indian meals I have had. The lamb was so tender and really nicely spiced (but not too hot). I would recommend this place to family and friends alike.

Went with my daughter and we had a great evening. We were greeted at the door and had a seat in the lounge area. Our drinks arrived and we were offered a trio of sharing dips which were delicious. We ordered our food and were shown to our table. For starters we shared Agra Onion Bhajia and the Daja Chana Chaat. Delicious. We ordered the Nawabi Lamb Passanda and the Adoori Chicken Korma with House Pilau and Naan bread. The flavours were fantastic and the meat so tender. If your in Newcastle or Gateshead you must visit Raval. First class food and service. Highly recommended.

Like most people we stopped here to eat before going to a show at the glasshouse (or slug as our friends call it) we've not had an Indian meal for ages.. Golly it was a stupendous reintroduction to amazing food.. Greeted at the door, seated to peruse the menu with drinks. When we were ready we were escorted to our table. Wonderfully light and crispy poppadoms and amazing dips (they brought out some hot lime pickle just for me) an array of dishes that were lip smacking yummy.. My limited punjab was received warmly (I don't do swear words) 10/10 from us..

Located in The Gate, one of Newcastle's top leisure complexes, it's a great spot for stag parties or casual dining. The menu features classic American dishes as well as options incorporating Jack Daniels whiskey. While some customers have noted issues with advertised deals, many have had positive experiences with delicious food and friendly service.

The ambience was lovely, and the staff was super friendly and attentive. We had nachos, potato skins with bacon, and Cajun-spiced chicken fajitas. The food was delicious, but quantity-wise, the nachos weren’t value for money, and overall, everything felt a bit pricey. The Passionate Sunrise mocktails were amazing and definitely a highlight. There was a bit of a wait during peak hours to get seated, as well as for the food to be served. Overall, it was a good experience.

This isn't a review of TGI but of the Byron Burger ghost kitchen that they run from there on uber and deliveroo. There's 40% offers at the moment and it's such good value for money. The Byron Burger brought flashbacks of 2012. It was really good 6.8/10. The desserts are great too.

Egregiously overpriced. The food is… fine, TGI’s had been one of my favourite chain restaurants to go to for years - but the pricing has become ridiculous of late to the point where I can’t really justify it anymore. £22 for a bacon cheeseburger and a cup full of fries is just not acceptable in an American diner style setting with lukewarm service. When my partner and I sat down and looked at the menu we genuinely struggled to find a dish under £20 and the food and service here do not warrant that price point at all. We just felt robbed by the end and wished we’d have gone somewhere else.

Frankie & Benny's is a popular chain eatery that offers a mix of Italian and American comfort food classics in a welcoming environment suitable for families. The service provided by the staff is exceptional, with the team going above and beyond to accommodate their customers. The food itself is delicious, with the lunchtime menu offering hot and tasty options. The burger, in particular, stands out as being especially good. The servers are friendly and kind, ensuring a pleasant dining experience for all patrons.
Served by Jenny at the metro centre today. She was an absolute dream, super friendly, engaged in conversation and was more than happy to help. She helped with any questions we had too as we have never had brunch here before (normally breakfast, dinner or tea). I ordered the banana and biscoff stack of 3 pancakes while the husband ordered the big apple. We both enjoyed then, infact the pancakes were the best I have ever had, super soft, fluffy and super filling. Thank you for a great experience Jenny and all the staff at Frankie & Benny's. We will return for more brunch in the future.

Frankie & Benny’s. The food came out really quickly and it was warm, but not hot which I’d have expected. But was still very nice. I was a bit awkward and ordered the Chicken BBQ burger and requested for a beef patty instead which they did and I had the bacon removed which they didn’t have a problem with. So kudos to them for attending to my awkward needs. The service was good, the man that served us was polite and got us a table straight away and took our order correctly which came out correctly. Someone also came up to check on us half way through the meal which was really nice of them. The atmosphere was kinda dead, didn’t really feel like anything special.

It was lovely, to be fair. I really believe that of all the other restaurant chains still around, Francie and Penny's have been pretty consistently good, especially if I compare them to the likes of TGI Fridays, where the portion sizes have shrunk considerably, even though the prices have increased massively, and it feels like really bad value for money. I have always found your staff to be friendly and accommodating, but not too overbearing.

We visited Frankie and Benny’s today and were so impressed by the staffs wonderful service. Anya was our server and we had 2 £25 lifestyle gift cards to use and she ensured that we got the best deals for our money and was very helpful. Great service from the staff here today. I am also in a wheelchair and Nick ensured that I was sat in a comfortable place. Only waited 5 minutes to get seated. And our food was cooked to perfection. Really recommend this place if you want to go somewhere nice and relaxed and where you’ll be well catered for. Very disability friendly. Anya and Nick were fabulous servers definitely recommend this place ☺️

Nando's Newcastle - Eldon Square is a popular chain restaurant serving flame-grilled chicken in spicy chilli sauce. The restaurant is brightly coloured and has a relaxed atmosphere. Staff are polite and happy to help with any questions. The food is well prepared and the prices are reasonable.
The restaurant is upstairs, two steps need maintenance. A big lamp hugging from the ceiling is very beautiful but a bit broken now. I wonder about the cleanliness of the restaurant on my way up... Very friendly welcome and service, nice chicken and big portions. It wasn't very busy and it was very comfortable and agradable to be there. Nice views from the big window by the tables to Newcastle and the square. Nothing to complain, just a bit more love to get this five stars.

Today i ordered a collection of 5 saucy wings and 5 chicken wings and the taste in this type of chicken is the tangy kind of yogurt dressing which enhances the taste but can anyone see the yogurt dressing in my order video ? I collected the order and when i came home and opened the order it was a shock the yogurt dressing was missing. Tried speaking to manager on a phone call but it never got connected over the phone. When customer order the collection all the do is come home and the open the order but if we do that all we see is surprises like this. Very disappointed.

Pizza Hut is a well-known chain that offers delivery, takeout, and dine-in options. They are popular for their pizza, wings, and pasta dishes, as well as sides and desserts. The prices are affordable and the staff is friendly without being intrusive. During a recent visit for lunch while on a birthday shopping trip, the buffet option was chosen with unlimited drinks. The food tasted fresh and new dishes were consistently replenished throughout the visit. The restaurant maintained cleanliness with regular topping up of stations.
Visited today with my son, excellent service from a staff member named Claire. Nothing was too much for her, very attentive, welcoming, knowledgeable and patient with my son.

★★☆☆☆ Disappointing Visit – Living on Past Glory? This Pizza Hut has been around since the 90s—and honestly, so has the pizza. The buffet selection was poor, with a noticeable wait between pizzas being brought out. If you’re expecting a quick and varied buffet experience, you’ll be disappointed. The one redeeming feature was the goat’s cheese flatbread—served on a stylish slate platter and actually quite tasty. A rare bright spot in an otherwise uninspired meal. The ice cream was dreadful: more like watered-down milk than proper soft serve, topped with a few scattered sweets that didn’t help much. The ordering system is another letdown—you’re forced to scan a QR code and order through their site, which feels like a throwback to mid-lockdown days. Not exactly the relaxed dine-in experience you’d hope for. Overall, it feels like this location is coasting on nostalgia. Needs a serious refresh—both in food and approach.

If you're on the hunt for a delightful dining experience that perfectly marries chicken and beer, look no further than Hen & Hops. This vibrant eatery specializes in wings, boasting over twenty unique sauces and rubs to tantalize your taste buds. With pun-inspired flavors like Old Faithful, Putins Panic, and Raggie Rasta, there's something for everyone.
First time here today after wandering by on our last few visits to town and making a note to try it. Me and 3 teen lads with appetites. Honestly just brill. Waitress was friendly and helpful. Food was delicious and very good value for money which was a rare treat. We even stayed for dessert and coffee which was also lovely. We hit on with the Friday deal which was £6 for 10 wings but completely underestimated portion size and ordered a plate each AND tenders and chips to share and it's the first time in a while we haven't managed to finish everything. Not because it wasn't nice....we were very impressed and will def be back. Book ahead if you're going......2 parties were unable to be seated just turning up without reservations (but the staff were very accommodating taking numbers and bookings at the door so people could come back later).

Hen and Hops is simply revolutionary when it comes to chicken wings. The rest of their food looks incredible as well, but I’d feel like I was cheating on someone if I didn’t go in and get the best chicken wings I’ve ever had, anywhere in the world… and the beauty is its RIGHT on my doorstep. The service is wonderful, personalised and exemplary every single time. The servers have great knowledge, and the food is always quick even when busy. I’ve been to this place at least once a month for the last 3 years (ish) and there’s not been ONCE I’ve had a bad experience. This is my favourite restaurant in the world, the nicest staff you’ll ever meet, and I’m buzzing for my next visit.

First visit and will be my only visit. Ordering process isn’t very straight forward, the cashier seemed like she was in a hurry to get through the ordering. Ordered the Full Flavour Mix, a burger, and a drink, came to £24. They give you a number, it’s table service, waited roughly 10 minutes. Not many seats to choose from as it was lunch time on a weekend. Food was so so, the original wings were enjoyable, tangy with a bit of heat. The chicken tenders were dripping with oil, the wings were VERY small. They provide disposable gloves which was a plus… All in all I’d say it’s very expensive for wings, go to the well known place if you want wings!
Angela C — Google review
- very busy so expect a wait - you get a numbered plastic stand (like the maccers ones for table ordering) and the staff wander round the store trying to find you. It's anxiety inducing at busy times. - the boneless chicken (tenders and boneless wings) is better than the wings. Wetherspoons do better wings. - fries are decent - dips are lovely. The ranch and honey mustard really add levels of flavour. - the wing sauces are great and the spicier ones pack some nice heat.

Overall, the food we eventually got was tasty but the experience and price was just too steep.

Jade at Wingstop Metrocentre completely failed to handle the situation professionally — not what you’d expect from a manager. I honestly can’t believe the way I was treated at Wingstop in the Metrocentre. I had just stepped away to use the toilet for a minute, and when I came back, one of the staff had thrown away my drink and the salt I had brought with me. I was upset, of course, but all I wanted was a simple apology. Instead, the manager (Jade) started talking at me in an aggressive and disrespectful way — staring at my face while speaking to me like I had done something wrong. It felt more like I was being attacked than listened to. This is not how customers should be treated, especially by someone in a management role. If this is how the shop is run, I really feel sorry for anyone else who has to deal with this kind of attitude. Some basic customer service training is badly needed here — or at least some respect

The drinks machines are clearly broken. Literally warm, with no ice. I told 3 different members of staff this and was told wait a few minutes on 3 Separate occasions for the ice to be made! How long am I supposed to wait? I was there 30 minutes and no ice. No apologies and the lady with the glasses and tattoos didn’t even acknowledge me as she was too concerned about an order for uber that she had forgotten to add a milkshake too that she wasn’t paying any attention to me. The place was so dirty as well that I had to ask for my table to be cleaned. Really really bad

Good value for money. 1/2 chicken and chips is £6.69 at lunch, which is half the price of Nandos. You could get wings, a wrap or burger instead of the 1/2 chicken and the price can go down to £5.69. The chips are chicken shop fries. The chicken could do with longer on the grill to give it more char and the sauce has a bit more of a tang than your standard peri peri, but I enjoyed it all. Would be nice if they offered pots/bottles with extra sauce. The dine-in area is small, but very clean. Wasn’t a fan of the paper plates and wooden cutlery. You can call to pre-order.

Popped into Chilli Flames to try something new. The menu has a decent range of choices (wraps, pittas, burgers etc), but I found the design of the printed menus so incredibly odd; there are pictures of each item, but they're randomly placed on the menu so you have no idea which picture represents which description. Anyway, I ordered a pitta with coleslaw and peri chicken in a meal. The food was quite tasty; nice and hot, with good flavour. The tiny amount of coleslaw was quite lame though. The peri chips were very tasty. The food did take a very long time; there were only a few people in the shop, and everyone seemed to have a long wait, while there seemed to be plenty of staff on hand. Not very fast for fast food. The prices were okay - a little expensive for what you get, in my opinion, but acceptable for a city centre location. There's a decent amount of seating inside, the decor is fresh and the space is clean. The staff were so lovely, and I found their warm and welcoming service quite memorable!

Naz Takeaway is a hidden gem that has been delighting food lovers for years. With a rich history dating back to 1983, this friendly establishment is run by the Naz brothers, who bring authentic flavors reminiscent of Lahore right to your plate. The mutton curry here is often hailed as one of the best around, and their naan perfectly complements every dish. Visitors rave about the warm atmosphere and attentive service, with one brother expertly managing the kitchen while the other engages with customers.
Probably the best curry and naan Ive ever had! I came from Teesside to view a car and decided to grab a breakfast here. Best decision ever! They explained the dishes and catered for my request. Its a simple, lovely place and food is worth every penny!
