Little hidden gem, we sat in the courtyard after a walk around houghall woods and enjoyed scones and even a puppachino for our dog! They were lovely and was a gorgeous place to sit and enjoy the sunshine! It's very small indoors though but still nice! Food was lovely and staff really friendly, prices are reasonable aswell!
Exceptional experience on the outskirts of Durham. Went at Sunday lunchtime, but opted out of the great lunchtime (albeit limited) deal as it was our first visit and wanted to sample more of the menu. Both went for the Thali trays (tandoori and vegetable, respectively) along with a fish momo starter and additional vegetable side (mushroom bhaji). The Thali choice was a perfect introduction to what Amaani have to offer. Both the meat and vegetable trays offered 4 different tikka or curry dishes each as good and flavourful as the last. My partner informs me that the tikka masala was a true standout compared to other restaurants we've tried. Thali portion for money is also exceptional, considering you get to sample four curries, small starter portion, rice and bread - you can't really go wrong. Our only reservation is that the dishes lacked heat spice wise, which albeit we probably could have asked for spicier of we'd thought about it! Will recommend, and will go again!
Review for the cafe part only . Always friendly and quick service, Vegetarian offerings are meagre, just cheese as is the norm, so nothing special there, but they do have milk alternatives for coffee, lovely food tho and nice outside seating area. Lovely place to sit in the sun, and have a walk by the river afterwards.
