Rajapur Bangladeshi Kitchen
Family-run Bangladeshi restaurant and takeaway on Church Way, cooking home-style curries with its own freshly ground spices since 2002.
About Rajapur Bangladeshi Kitchen
Rajapur Bangladeshi Kitchen on Church Way has been family owned since 2002 and has earned a loyal local following for its home-style Bangladeshi cooking, made with spices ground in-house rather than bought in. The menu runs through the familiar curry-house favourites alongside more distinctive regional dishes, and reviewers regularly single out the warmth of the welcome as much as the food. It is bring-your-own for alcohol, which keeps a meal here good value.
Set in the town centre a short walk from the Metro and the Beacon Centre, it works both as a sit-in restaurant and for collection and delivery around North Shields. As a small, popular kitchen it is worth booking a table at the weekend and confirming current opening hours.
