Mumbai of Alnwick — Restaurant in Alnwick

I can be a bit wary of small town curries but Mumbai of Alnwick are excellent.

A great choice of curry, very authentic, hot is nicely hot, there are very fresh and large naan breads (you don't need rice necessarily) great tasting rice and good portions. We are from West Yorkshire so know our way round a curry - and this place is excellent. There was a great balance of spice here and well cooked.

The restaurant managed to fit us in despite it being busy and our arriving without reservation. Staff very friendly and took a bit of time to chat a little while with us. There were other visitors to the town in, and it was clear they dropped into the restaurant each time they came, and they got a warm welcome too. The place was nice and clean and fresh looking.

My beloved broke her leg in July and is still using a crutch at the moment - the restaurant went the extra mile to help her. I won't go into detail but they were incredibly kind - just goes to show what nice folk they are here.

If you enjoy a good curry, it would be a crime for you to bypass...

On holiday in Alnwick for the weekend we were lucky to chance across the Mumbai. The staff were very friendly and the service was impeccable - our waiter was respectful of us wanting to take our time to finish the remnants of our meal. We enjoyed the relaxed, convivial atmosphere as a couple in amongst other couples and larger groups. This is a place I would also feel comfortable dining out as a single woman.

The food is great value for money, fresh tasting and carefully seasoned. The degree of spiciness was just right in my mild/medium dish. It's good to find a place that offers a true range of spiciness appealing to all palates. We had 2 poppadoms with pickles to start with followed by a side dish of tandoori paneer, 2 vegetarian mains, 2 chapatis and a portion of pilau rice. We have healthy appetites and this was the perfect amount - we were definitely full! The place is obviously popular for takeaways with its local clientele too.

We wouldn't hesitate to revisit Mumbai and thoroughly recommend it to anyone looking for a value for money...

I brought my family to this restaurant as I got it recommended by one of my friends and I was amazed.

Just walking in I find the decor is lovely. The menu is quite wide and has many various options to chose from and they have a good selection of drinks. The waiters and waitresses are very polite which is key for a restaurant. The starters came really quickly and were nice. As soon as I finished the meal the waiter is already here to take my order for the main course (brilliant service).I ordered the butter chicken with some butter naans. A waiter just brought a smoky dish to another table and it looked tasty. The food has just came after around 20m (okay service). The food was tremendously delicious I loved the balance of the sweetness in the butter chicken and the naans were alright. The food was nice for the amount of time it took them to make it but after all it was delicious. Although this restraint is quite small the food is brilliant and I will go again.

I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone...
