A fabulous night, it was soo special, a lovely guy met us at newcastle train station with a drink for us on the train, on the way to The Valley restaurant Corbridge. Absolute lovely friendly staff, looked after us so well, food was fantastic, restaurant was beautiful. And they even saw us back on the train, the restaurant is right on the platform, so it was very easy. Will be doing it again. Thankyou so much guys for a very special experience 👍

Whoever worked out the concept of the "Curry Train" is a genius. The whole deal - from getting the train in Newcastle to the wonderful food and atmosphere of the restaurant was outstanding, and we will do it again.

Having been to the Valley a few times before over the years, I was looking forward to a meal out with family. While the food was good, unusually the service was not. The waiting staff were polite but there was a real undertone of annoyance/aggression, practically throwing the plates on the table, looking exasperated every time a dish was brought to the table. Very odd - we're really not a demanding lot. I'm not sure if they'd all had a big argument just before we arrived but that's how it felt. I'll be giving it a miss in the future - at over £30 per head it was supposed to feel like a treat.

We’ve been exploring the North for a week, and this is the best food and service we’ve had. Staff were kind, attentive and fast, in a proper restaurant way. We had a few different dishes that were all so full of flavour. I particularly liked the Lamb Shat Kora Delight. The setting is rather original, next to the station.

Having been to 'sister outfit' Cilantro in Hexham a month or so back, i expected The Valley to be on a very similar par..but whereas i would have given a resounding 5☆ for food at Cilantro, the VJ was mediocre in comparison. Drier meat (lamb, both in main meal and starter chop. Less rich and less complex and well balanced flavours in the sauce. Somewhat bland tarka dhall lack visible or taste signs of fried garlic.

We had a takeaway last weekend. The food, although presented beautifully, was mediocre at best. The chicken in both dishes was dry and gristly, which was very off putting. None of us finished and didn't even keep any as leftovers.

Becareful of the glamorous reviews... most the reviews are from folks doing the "Curry Train". This restaurant is very poor for an Indian restaurant. Six of us attended a few weeks ago. We got sat at our table fairly quickly and smoothly, and then a gentleman came around and placed the napkins on our laps. Another gentleman then took our drinks orders which came fairly quickly, and we then ordered starters and mains upon the servers return. Everything went down hill from here. They literally FORGOT about our order. We ordered around 6.15pm and we had to remind them at around 7.15pm that we still hadn't had our starter. This was despite a server coming around just before 7pm asking If we needed anything - we replied at the time "Our food would be great please" but it still didn't arrive. This meant that shortly after the starters arrived at 7.15pm, our mains then arrived, rather than being spread out a bit. On top of this, they served me prawns instead of the chicken that I ordered. Good job I wasn't allergic! There was no apology or compensation attempt made from the restaurant. They all just looked clueless as to what was going on. In regard to the food, you get more chicken in a CostCo curry than you do here. And for some reason, the sauce tasted watery? Not quite sure what was going on. Maybe we went at a bad time but we won't be returning any time soon.

What an excellent experience! After seeing Michael Portillo do ‘the curry train’ on his railway journeys programme, we decided it was a brilliant model for a good evening out. Their guide met us under the big clock by the ticket barriers at Newcastle Central, to catch the train to Corbridge, Cobra bottled beer or prosecco in hand. The Valley Restaurant building is lovely, possibly the oldest ex-station house in the World. The food was delicious, and there was so much - popodums and pickle tray to start, and the starter and mains we’d ordered at Newcastle/on the train from a great choice for carnivores, vegetarians/vegans. Also included are keema and plain rice, sides of bindhi bhaji & Bombay aloo, with a puffy, light garlic naan; then a mint ice-cream bombe and a caramel/choc ice-cream pot to share, followed by coffee and mints. Drinks choice is also extensive, with draught and bottled beers, and wines. The guide, waiters and owner were all friendly and very polite, and made us feel very looked-after, they couldn’t have been more professional and attentive. They directed us to the platform for the return journey just after 9pm. We were very full and had enjoyed the whole experience very much indeed. We’d deliberately travelled from Manchester to stay over in Newcastle to do the trip, and were not disappointed.

After we had our welcome drinks in the reception area. We were escorted to our table upstairs. The food was sensational! So fresh, with quality ingredients. Possibly the best we have had! We ate on a Saturday night and it was very busy, but you wouldn't know it, because the service was excellent and very personal. The Valley is situated on the train platform at Corbridge. There are fantastic deals on the 'Curry Train', where you can catch the train, and be welcomed at the restaurant directly on the platform. We honestly cannot recommend The Valleys, highly enough!!

The Tandoori shop is a small counter at which you order food to take away; there’s no seating except a bench on which to wait for your order. You do wait (e.g., 20 minutes), which is fine because the food is made when you order. For a small takeaway place, the menu is huge: every assortment of Indian fare you could want—plus pizza. You can pick the proteins sauce, type of rice. The food is good and a good value (even if there’s more sauce than protein)—especially the naan.
