About This Pub
So, picture this: you're in Whitley Bay, maybe after a refreshing walk by the sea, and you pop into Takdir for what turns out to be a cracking Indian meal. The food is spot on – full of bold flavours that make every bite worthwhile, and it's not breaking the bank either. I love how the staff go out of their way to make you feel comfortable, like you're part of the family, which really adds to the homely atmosphere. They've got a great selection of cocktails too, perfect for sipping while you chat. On the flip side, though, it can get a tad slow with the service sometimes, especially if you're eager for your mains, and finding parking nearby isn't always straightforward. Still, with such high praise from folks who've tried it, I'd say it's well worth a visit if you're in the area and fancy a solid, no-fuss curry night – just plan ahead and you'll have a brilliant time.
Pros and Cons

Prime spot on the Whitley Bay seafront, so you can enjoy a scenic view after a breezy walk along the coast.
Cons
-
Service can be a bit slow at times, like when waiting for the mains to arrive, which might put a damper on a quick night out.
-
Parking is limited around the area, so you might end up with a bit of a walk if you're driving.
-
It's only open in the evenings, which is a shame if you're hoping for a lunch spot or a spontaneous daytime visit.

Been this evening for a meal and it was fantastic from start to finish. Myself, my wife and my son all got the banquet menu and it was delicious. Everything was fresh, full of flavour and delivered to our table by the most attentive and friendly staff. A fantastic experience and an amazing value, can't rate it highly enough.
I went to this restaurant last night on Tuesday 21 January 2025 I can honestly say the food and service was amazing.
Served by Stacey and another person. Pleased with the food and service.
Dined here last night - staff were polite and service was relatively quick. We went for the banquet option which was varied enough.
Mains took a little while but other courses were timely.
Food was nice and plentiful.
Not much parking outside, we parked outside the Spanish city and had a stroll along.
I was pleasantly surprised by Takdir. The venue was nicely decorated, staff friendly and warm. A good benchmark is clean fresh toilet facilities! It was nice to see a mix of people and various staff attending to our table. The food was fantastic, its my children's first experience of Indian style food. Dad also loves hot hot food! A curry that is nice and fiery but you can still taste the flavours my main dish was superb! (See pic) I would highly recommend the venue to one and all. We will definitely come back, thank you for a lovely warm and relaxed dining experience.
