Chowrasta
Authentic Indian street food served with a twist. Sizzling chaats, rich curries, smoky tandoor delights, and innovative dishes like keema nachos.
About Chowrasta
Chowrasta is one of the most exciting recent additions to Gosforth's dining scene, an upstairs eatery on the High Street specialising in authentic Indian street food. The menu goes well beyond standard curry house fare, with dishes like keema nachos, kadhai lamb naga, Goan fish curry, and Hyderabad chicken biryani sitting alongside more familiar favourites. The cooking is vibrant and flavour-packed, and the 4.9 Tripadvisor rating reflects genuine quality rather than hype. Local parking is available and free after 6pm. A hidden gem that rewards the walk upstairs.
