Biang Biang noodles in Newcastle upon Tyne

Best Xian food I’ve had in England! It’s a real authentic canteen, beats all the places in London!

My biang biang noodle was delicious but they changed the recipe to be more tomatoey. Doesn’t compete with the recipe two years ago but still really good. I guess it depends on personal preference.

i keep thinking about this place. i keep wanting to get more noodles. it's too good.

LOVED the Biang Biang noodles- had them in New York and London and was so happy to find them in Newcastle. Did not disappoint 😮‍💨

The store is in a neat market. I feel very comfortable after eating the noodles. It is very clean and hygienic. The noodles and vegetables are fresh, delicious and the portions are large. The boss will reduce the seasonings as required. He is very easy to communicate with and the clerk is also very enthusiastic.

Hidden gem in grainger market. Love this place!

True EXPERTS in their craft 🔥🧑‍🍳 For the first time, we tried the famous ‘Biang Biang’ Handmade noodles in Grainger Market, and it lived UP to it’s name 🔥😆 While there are many lovely Chinese noodle shops, it would be difficult to find a parallel to this in the North East (based on my limited knowledge). The noodles were INCREDIBLE, the broths were extremely rich - and with their very own-made chilli oil just screaming for you to add more in, it makes for the perfect noodle soup. They even adapted their noodle soup options to suit our vegetarian requests without hesitation 🙏 🍃 We ordered : Lanzhou Beef Noodle Soup (vegetarian) Noodles in Sour Soup with pickled vegetables (vegatarian) Biang Biang Noodles Just look at how the chefs work on their woks. True ‘wok hei’. And sitting at the side of a bustling market while eating - now that’s a true street food experience 😎

We had to stop here when we saw they serve biang biang noodles - nowhere in Manchester serves these! They serve really delicious Chinese street food.

Today I came to Newcastle from London. The owner of this gourmet restaurant in Xi'an recommended that the Lanzhou beef noodle soup base is very good. The skin of the meat buns is crispy and the meat is tender. It is worth experiencing.

Absolutely loved my first time experience here. Me and my partner both ordered fried noodles in soy sauce with chicken (£12 each) as well as a Chinese boiled egg (£1.50). Absolutely delicious!! We were offered some chilli oil with the dish as well which was terrific. The staff were lovely, they were asking where we were from and overall the place had a great atmosphere. It's cash only and it's a lovely place to get authentic Chinese street food. Went back for a second time and ordered BiangBiang noodles which was absolutely delicious and a Chinese pork burger, again delicious, the bread was gone made as well as everything else.

Blown away by the Biang Biang noodles and Chinese burger - most authentic and delicious tasting Chinese food I’ve had in the UK

It’s particularly bad. The owner of this restaurant touches Chinese female students whenever they see something beautiful.

The food is excellent but the people are a bit rude.

In North East England but miss real Chinese food? Come here. Eat noodles. Be happy. A little piece of central China in the middle of Newcastle. I love this place.

This place is amazing the food is to die for real fresh food made infront of you the staff are lovely and friendly every time I come to Newcastle I always come here for food real Chinese food

Ramen sells for 12 pounds, which is too expensive and not cost-effective. 2years before，the price is 7-8pounds

I visited the other day after all the positive reviews I saw online for the biang biang noodles. After going I understand why! They were so fresh and flavorful, the meat were perfectly tender. The only thing I wish it had was more meat and egg. However I loved the tangy sauce and it had the perfect spice, especially with some extra chilli oil. My boyfriend ordered the spicy beef noodle which was nice but wouldn’t order again. Would be great if you were sick though. We did wait about 15 minutes but that was fine. Also they only take cash.

Rarely do I give 5 stars. But this is a 5 stars Chinese street food. It's so hard to get real non western adjusted Chinese food but this place does it. A very small place with a chef shouting across the desk while the crowds pass by. Sometimes a bit chaotic but that's part of its charm and the food was incredible. It's a massive shame that Newcastle city is anti car as it makes it next to impossible for me to return but I'll do my best. Strong and deep flavours, excellent 👍

One of the best value meals we've had and one of the tastiest, and some of the friendliest service too. 100% going to be my go-to Grainger market meal!

Food was very authentic, as is the ambience of the place (market corner/street food with bar stools at high benches). Service was terrible. I was first in. Four groups came in after and were eating by the time I went to remind the guy I was there. Not even an apology. That said, worth the wait for the huge bowl of very hearty hot and sour beef soup.

It took me 35 minutes to wait for my order. People come after me, they got their order first

The BEST noodles in North East, bar none. I heartily recommend the Biang Biang noodles. It's worth the trip to Newcastle just for their amazing hand pulled noodles.

It looks like an authentic chinese street food stall, it is an authentic chinese street food stall. Had a bowl of the biang biang noodles and they were delicious and came in a big portion as well. The issue is that one meal here costs £12 which is a lot more than you would expect for street food. They also only take cash which is an inconvenience. I would definitely come back but I can't afford to come often

Visiting Newcastle and saw the reviews on this place and they were good, an for good reason the food was on the slightly mor expensive side but well worth it, the beef noodle soup was one of the best dishes I've had

Best Chinese restaurant in Newcastle 🌺🌺

Best vegan noodles ever! Chinese street food at the highest level. Ambience as expected from street food. Huge portions, the spiciness is negotiable. 5 Stars

Came here from reviews...I wasn't disappointed AT ALL! This is the most authentic spicy beef bowl noodles that I've had since having hand pulled beef noodles from Shanghai. This really took me back and I'm so grateful for that experience ☺️ The price being £12 a bowl, quite steep, but it is well worth it and authentic! Will try other things next time. P.s this place only takes cash.

Fantastic Chinese food..love the flavours

I’ve eaten ‘fried noodles with soy sauce and prawns’ which was delicious. Portions were quite big. I can suggest to someone who wants to try real taste. However they should give an attention in terms of ‘hygiene’ more :)

The price went up massively. Now most noodles costs £12. I wanted to try Lanzhou beef noodle, but after seeing the price list before the increase, we just decided to have two biang biang noodles(Lanzhou went up to £12 from £7.90, whereas biang biang's price increased by £2 so not so bad). The noodles tasted great, but it was too salty and oily we ended up getting sick that day. The owner was really friendly though.

I had the famous Biang Biang noodles. Absolutely delicious. Quite spicy which is perfect for me. I will be having them again. Tomorrow hopefully. Lovely warm and friendly staff and service. It was great to watch the food being prepared as I was sat next to the kitchen. The chef asked me if I liked it spicy. I nodded enthusiastically and he smiled. Top man. He didn’t disappoint.

This is a noodle shop in the mould of the great noodle shops, better than I've had outside China

Brilliant tasting and loved the texture of the Biang Biang noodles. Prices have gone up. Good portion size. It does takes 20/30 minutes for the chef to make it, so won't suggest if in a hurry.

Authentic, mouth-numbing Xi’an noodles. Super delicious and hits the spot!

Taste was good but had to wait nearly an hour for a quick plate of noodles, restaurant was almost empty so don't understand why so long to wait for "fast" food! Disappointed.

Best Chinese food I've ever had. Recommend the biangbiang noodles and Lanzhou soup.

The Bian Bian noodles were incredible. The music was also great. We will be coming back here.

Probably the tastiest noodles I've ever eaten (biang biang noodles), definitely recommend this place.

Perfect authentic and delicious noodles with friendly staff.

Made me egg and tomato which is not on the menu. Was absolutely delicious, reminded me of my life in China. Will definitely go back. Thank you

Restored my hope in finding good food in the UK

Incredibly delicious and authentic noodle joint. They don't shy away from original, bold flavours paired with the softest noodles. Service is fast and very friendly. Must visit!

Fantastic food - 100% worth the wait 🙌 The owner and staff was super friendly and welcoming. We ordered the Biang Biang noodles and the Lanzhou Beef Soup Noodles.

- Located in the middle column near the north end of Grainger Market (corner of row C and alley 5). - There’s a Noodle express sign pointing to the indoor seating, but you have to go around the outside of the shop where the big menu is to order first (see pic). - Authentic cuisine. Super tasty. Bit of a wait (15-20 mins) but it’s a real treat if you like Chinese food and hand pulled noodles. - £10 filled me up for the day. - Had the Biang Biang noodles which had very tender meat. It’s quite saucy so if you’re getting take away container make sure you hold the box flat otherwise you’ll get sauce down you.

The venue has changed little from when it was a greasy spoon, how ever the food has changed allot! The noodles are hot fragrant and tasty, I had the Biang Biang noodles with beef. Were fresh and perfectly cooked a little chewy just how I like them and the sauce was spicy and so tasty. I think it was well worth the visit and will be back on my next trip to Newcastle!

It’s a really nice experience. The owner did a good beef noodle for me. I like it and I will come again

Best bowl of noodles I've tried outside of China

Food is fantastic. Great value for authentic food. Cash only. Service is hit and miss, and not always super clean in the seating area.

One of the most authentic noodles place! The owner was so nice, cheerful and welcoming! He’s very passionate about what he’s doing. The beef vermicelli soup 牛水盆was so delicious and full of flavour, I would totally have that again, 100% worth the wait. I also ordered the famous cold noodle凉皮 and Chinese burger, wow, it tastes amazing! The portion is big and the music they play in the background is nostalgic, great vibes! I highly recommend this place to all noodles lovers, it’s a must try!!

The biang biang noodles are in fact bianging. Definitely coming back for more.

The best noodles in Newcastle by some distance.

Fantastic authentic biang biang noodles. Chef makes great recommendations and pulls the noodles to order.

A must try located in the Grainger market. Noodles are great, try any dish. A must is the fatty pork bun.

Great place for flat (biang biang) noodles, Chinese burger and beef soup. Friendly owner and staff. Have to go back to try other things especially (lanzhou beef noodle soup) on the menu.

TL;DR - Incredible authentic noodles. Freshly prepared, so expect to wait. Nice staff, decent prices. Cash only. Amazing noodles, freshly made per order. Be aware that this does mean there will be a wait while the chef is preparing the noodles (I waited roughly half an hour), so this is not the place to go if you're in a rush and need a quick bite. However if you're looking for authentic, delicious, fresh Chinese dishes, this place is highly recommended. Perhaps order first, do a bit of shopping around the market and then come back to eat! The staff are friendly, and the prices are reasonable considering the labour going into every dish. Note that it's cash only here - there's a fee-free ATM at Tesco just opposite the nearest Grainger Market exit. There is some seating inside which is a bit spartan and could be cleaner, but does the job. There is customer WiFi in there, which is a nice touch as there is little mobile signal.

Wanna feel like your in shaanxi get there

The TASTE!!! Lei is a wizard. Biang Biang street noodles all the way, along with their Chinese burgers. Also, I’ve never seen a one-cook operation pull the noodles per order. Insanity! So good that we went 2 days in a row. Can’t recommend this enough

baffles me that this place isn’t packed wall to wall with customers, insane noodles all made fresh in house, lovely staff, huge portions and reasonably priced - can’t wait to come back!

Fantastic authentic Xi'an food. HIGHLY recommend! Staff and Chef are also brilliant, ask them for recommendations.

very authentic northern Chinese food. Love the Chinese burger(roujiamo). Definitely fabulous and highly recommend!

The boss is super nice and the noodles and fried chicken are delicious.

Authentic Xi'an flavor Yummyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy~

Probably the most authentic Chinese food in Newcastle. The hand pulled noodles are amazing. The chef is very helpful if you aren't sure what to have.
