  • Gregg's and Peters for a pastie
  • Tandoori Night in Houghton has the best curries, they have won awards and everything. Pizza Dial in Houghton does the best kebabs but their pizzas are now so thick they are more like dodgy quiches to look at! Best restaurant is without a doubt Benitos, the italians in Newbottle which used to be the Queens Head. The staff are very welcoming and the food is fantastic and not too expensive if you want a cheap romantic date!
  • Peefer were the ginga evo sniffers nock a bout ne names though renni nd joe, Not 2 mention the burnside dogs with the ginga hair they call blonde (CAINY). jst stroll down burnside hill just along from peefer and you might see al the binge drinkers with the leader of the mera peak crew our Scott F stoned to bitz of his 2 hit wonder lung.
  • plenty of blood and snots on the floor outside the brit
  • pizza dial and bhaji. Takes your breath away when you walk into bhaji. And makes your eyes water
  • PIZZA DIAL (5120906) BEST PIZZA SHOP IN HOUGHTON BY FAR
  • What has happened to the grub at the Silver Grid ? Good job Grasswell isnot too far.
  • peters greggs coop etc
  • Silver grid which is mainly fish and chips, i do recomned the battered mars bars though. Dont order from pizza park what ever you do because they always mess it up! your better off going there and getting it yourseld because the thin crust pizzas are lush! pizza dial is the place to go if you have the munchies and have just come back from the town.
  • Bogies was the place to be but now its gone. Gotta get to Greggs!
  • MACCY D'S BURGER KING BY DICK
  • the highlight of houghton. exellent for tandoori, chinese, pizzas/kebabs, chippies etc. lack of mexican food now that chilton moor stopped doing burritos, but if u like thai food, the highfield lodge at east rainton does eat in and take away but doesnt deliver.
  • the sun at newbottle is quite popular for meals
  • Kebabs and all kinds of shit at shit prices. The chinkeys's are nice
  • May Ho Chinese Takeaway, next to the Job Centre. Sivler Grid, over the road from the new Library.
  • We have everything including, fish and chips, Indian and Pizzas.
  • Greggs Bakery. If you want something cheap and easy to eat go here. Also note that the Kappa Slappers always found in this shop are just like the food.
  • greggs-where the school kids eat nothing but greggs pasties and drink blue pop
  • i think dees is a canny chippe especially when he has them 10 pound specials on where u get 2 10 inch pizas of any choice a 10 inch garlic bread a tray of kebab meat and a tray of chips and a bottle of pop aswell
  • Wheatleys: guaranteed to sell sweets you've not seen anywhere else for 25 years
  • Sweaty Betties chippy is not bad.
  • The Burn do a lovely meal, but a ready-made frozen from Kwik Save is a lot cheaper.
  • Lovelys does nice chips with salt and sore finger.
  • Excellent fish and chips at Grasswell, up the bank a bit. Two or three surprisingly good Indian take-outs.
  • Yet again limited. However, the Dial pizza place is extremely good (excellent value etc), oh yes, before I forget, after 9pm the pizza shop turns into something from the twilight zone (it can be a wee bit wild). The Indian take away next to leithys' is excellent value.
  • Anyone tried the chinese takeaway, LOVELIES ,does a canny special foo yung as for the other eateries the special kebab at Pizza Dial takes a bit of beating.
  • Pizza Dial is superb. Tandoori Nights is a canny takeaway as well. There is not a decent chinkys for miles
  • The Silver Grid is one of the best take-aways around not only do they give value for money but they give a very high standard of service and quality. The cod is of excellent standard and fried in light and crispy batter to perfection. Lunch-time specials throughout the week are a particular favourite with the regular clientel. Just try and you will find out for yourself!!!!!!!!
  • I think Ali's kebab shop is now called Pizza Dial
  • Ali's Kebab shop is the best in town (situated near the Rafters)
  • Silver grid chippy - Sells the most awful food on the planet
