We had a few different caterers at our wedding, and the Stone Artisan Pizza was hands down the standout! The food was absolutely delicious — guests are still raving about it — and the service was just as impressive. The team were so lovely, friendly, and efficient. They even went the extra mile by walking around tidying up after everyone, which we really appreciated. As the bride, I felt especially looked after — they were kind, thoughtful, and genuinely added to the joy of the day. Couldn’t recommend them more highly!

Atiq from Spicy Fusion Grill provided a faultless service at my event. From the initial contact to the service provided on the day, he went out of his way to make sure everything regarding his food provision went just perfectly. The choice of food on offer was great value for money and tasted lovely. So many of my party guests commented on what a great service he gave and what a great idea it was to get in caterers in this fashion. So thank you Atiq from Spicy Fusion for helping to make my birthday party such a wonderful event!

Bananaleaf provided the catering for my wife's 40th birthday party and went down fantastically well, I don't think there was any food left at all by the end!! Shahid was professional, courteous and kept me informed well in advance including several planning discussions prior to event. I wanted a street food/festival theme for the event and Bananaleaf fitted perfectly! The food was delicious with friends contacting me after the event to reiterate how much they enjoyed the food. Thank you so much Bananaleaf!

Asian Catering in Newcastle: a local guide to bold flavours and stress-free planning

Newcastle knows how to host a proper celebration. From riverside spaces with big views to buzzing local clubs and classic hotels, this city understands good food, good company, and events that don’t take themselves too seriously. Asian catering fits right into that mix.

Whether you’re planning a Burns Night Fusion supper, an Asian-styled reception, or a christening that brings everyone together, Asian catering offers flavour, flexibility, and plenty of crowd-pleasing options. Done well, it’s generous, comforting, and memorable. Exactly what a Newcastle event should be.

We’ve put together this buyer’s guide to help you hire Asian catering in Newcastle with confidence. No waffle, no guesswork. Just practical advice, local insight, and a clear idea of what to expect.

Why Asian catering works so well for Newcastle events

Asian food is built for sharing. Big trays, vibrant colours, rich aromas, and menus that invite guests to tuck in rather than politely poke at their plates. In Newcastle, where events are social and lively by default, this style of catering feels right at home.

Another reason it works so well is flexibility. Asian catering covers a huge range of cuisines and formats, from North Indian classics to lighter bites and modern fusion. That makes it ideal for mixed guest lists, different dietary needs, and venues with varying levels of kitchen access.

Add a subtle Geordie twist, and you’ve got something that feels both exciting and familiar. Think warming spices, hearty portions, and menus designed to keep everyone well-fed and smiling.

Event ideas that suit Asian catering perfectly

Asian catering isn’t just for one type of celebration. In Newcastle, we see it working brilliantly across a wide range of events.

Burns Night Fusion

Burns Night doesn’t have to be all haggis and whisky. A fusion approach brings something unexpected to the table while still keeping things comforting and warming. Spiced mains, rich sauces, and hearty sides pair beautifully with winter celebrations and relaxed, sociable dining.

Asian catering allows you to nod to tradition while doing something a bit different. Your guests will appreciate the originality, and no one leaves hungry. That’s always a win.

Asian-styled receptions

For receptions, Asian catering offers real versatility. You can go relaxed and informal with shared dishes or opt for a more structured service if the occasion calls for it. Either way, it creates a welcoming atmosphere where guests feel encouraged to mingle.

This style works especially well in larger venues where you want food to be a talking point rather than a background detail.

Christenings and family celebrations

Christenings are about bringing people together across generations. Asian catering is ideal for that. Familiar flavours sit alongside more adventurous options, giving everyone something they’ll enjoy.

Menus can be adapted easily for children, older guests, and anyone with specific dietary requirements, making the whole event feel inclusive and well thought through.

Choosing the right venue and setup

Newcastle offers a great mix of venues, and Asian catering adapts well to most of them.

Riverside warehouses

These spaces are popular for good reason. They’re flexible, atmospheric, and perfect for relaxed but impressive events. Asian catering suits warehouse venues particularly well because it doesn’t rely on overly formal service.

Shared dishes and buffet-style setups work beautifully here, allowing guests to move around, chat, and help themselves.

Hotels

Hotels offer structure and convenience, especially for larger events. Asian caterers are experienced in working within hotel environments, whether that means coordinating with on-site staff or setting up independently.

This is a good option if you want a smoother logistical experience with minimal moving parts on the day.

Local clubs and community spaces

These venues are often the heart of family and cultural celebrations. Asian catering feels right at home in these settings, offering generous portions and menus that focus on flavour and familiarity. It’s a practical, budget-friendly option that still delivers on quality and atmosphere.

Menu style: North Indian classics with a Geordie twist

North Indian cuisine is a firm favourite in Newcastle, and for good reason. It’s rich, warming, and full of bold flavours that suit the city’s love of hearty food.

A Geordie twist doesn’t mean reinventing everything. It’s more about approach and balance. Think comforting dishes, generous portions, and menus designed to satisfy rather than show off.

You might see classic curries, slow-cooked mains, fragrant rice dishes, and well-seasoned sides, all served in a way that encourages sharing and seconds. It’s food that brings people together, which is exactly what a good event should do.

Understanding prices and what you get

For Asian catering in Newcastle, you can expect prices to sit roughly between £18 and £42 per person. Where you land in that range depends on a few key factors.

Guest numbers play a big role. Larger events often benefit from better per-person pricing. Menu complexity matters too. A simpler, crowd-focused menu will usually be more cost-effective than a highly customised one with lots of individual elements.

Service style also affects price. Drop-off catering is typically more affordable, while staffed service and on-site setup add to the overall cost. The important thing is transparency. You want to know exactly what’s included so there are no surprises later on.

How to choose the right Asian caterer

Not all caterers are the same, and choosing the right one makes a big difference to your event.

  • Start by thinking about your priorities. Is it flavour, presentation, speed of service, or flexibility? Ideally, you’ll find a supplier who balances all of these.
  • Look for caterers who are happy to adapt menus. Whether it’s adjusting spice levels, catering for dietary needs, or creating a fusion-style offering, flexibility is key.
  • Experience with your type of event and venue is another big plus. A caterer who understands how to work in a riverside warehouse or a hotel ballroom will save you time and stress.

Planning without the panic

One of the biggest worries when organising catering is uncertainty. Will the food arrive on time? Will there be enough? Will guests actually enjoy it? That’s why clear communication matters. Knowing what’s happening and when allows you to relax and focus on enjoying your event.

This is where using a reliable platform really helps. You’re not chasing quotes or waiting days for replies. Everything is clear, upfront, and easy to manage from the start.
