There's always huge competition among takeaways around Newcastle and, in the face of so much choice, customers can struggle to make a pick.
Many people tend to rely upon fall-back favourites if they haven't the time or the inclination to seek out somewhere new - and time, of course, is of the essence when you're hungry. But Newcastle has plenty tried and tested venues and among them are those singled out online which might help uncertain diners to narrow down their options.
Chinese food is set to play an important part in the upcoming Chinese New Year celebrations and it is also one of the most popular takeway options. While reviews and experiences can vary, here is an updated list of the top 10 list of venues offering delivery and take-out around Newcastle.
