On Grainger Street in the heart of Newcastle City Centre, Dakwala Bombay Canteen brings the energy of Bombay’s bustling canteens to a vibrant and relaxed dining room.

The menu features signature specials such as Dak house chicken, a creamy chicken masala inspired by the old “Dak Bungalow” rest houses. Lamb pepper fry combines stir-fried marinated lamb with caramelised onions, green chillies, and aromatic spices, while Parsi chicken berry pulao pairs tender chicken with sweet and sour barberries and basmati rice.

Lively small plates and comforting classics complement the centrepieces. Temple chaat and pani puri shots add playful energy, while old Delhi butter chicken brings rich, satisfying warmth. Breads arrive blistered and fragrant, and biryanis such as Lucknow lamb dum offer perfumed layers of flavour.

Dakwala Bombay Canteen is a place for friends to gather and share in the canteen spirit. One visit is a delight, and a second is practically a habit.
