Dabbawal High Bridge
Dabbawal
A Mumbai-style street food restaurant on High Bridge in the city centre. Shareable small plates and curries are popular, and the weekday lunch deal is good value.
Dabbawal specialises in Mumbai street food served as shareable small plates, with some larger mains too. Popular dishes include the grill platter, butter chicken, bhel puri, the 'Bombay bomb' and the thali. Madras chicken with yellow chilli sauce has also had good reviews. In 2025 the weekday two-course lunch cost about £16. It is very busy, so booking is recommended, as walk-ins often cannot get a table. It is on High Bridge, a few minutes' walk from Grey's Monument and Grainger Market. There is also a second branch in Gateshead.
