The Story

King Neptune is the longest-running Chinese restaurant in Newcastle upon Tyne, opening its doors in Chinatown on Stowell Street in 1986 and still going strong. The kitchen specialises in seafood — lobster, crab, scallops and squid sit alongside regional specialities like Peking-style spare ribs, aromatic crispy duck with pancakes and chicken in Szechuan sauce — executed with the kind of consistency that only comes from nearly four decades of practice. Sharing banquets start from £22.80 per person and cover enough dishes to give the whole table a proper tour of the menu.

What To Order

The dining room is spacious and relaxed, decorated with fairy lights that give it a warmth that larger Chinatown restaurants often lack. King Neptune is open for both lunch and dinner every day of the week, making it a reliable choice at almost any point — and the set lunch menu offers exceptional value for the quality of cooking on the plate. It’s been a firm favourite since 1986, serving authentic cuisine from all over China, and it shows no signs of losing its grip on the top spot.

Good To Know

A 4.5-star average across 823 reviews makes King Neptune one of the best-reviewed Chinese restaurants in this guide.
