Very disappointing. Nice concept in theory, but tired management and staff, tables uncleared, and filthy tables and floors. Nobody seemed to care. The worst I’ve seen for some time…

I'm gluten-free and I sometimes struggle to find something to eat (regardless really or) as a takeaway, that's not a pie, a pasty, a load of bread or something snacky, which was what was happening when I was in Newcastle. It was my first time...in the city, so was searching around, trying to get bearings, whilst also feeling very hungry. So, asked around in places nearby where maybe they offered some gluten-free food but nope, which was why, when walking into The Naked Deli and talking to the man behind the counter, that I was informed that everything offered for the Naked Bowl was gluten-free. He was so helpful and offered guidance on what sauces, out of their selection, would work with my choices, flavour-wise. I went for the chicken satay, the super green quinoa salad (which was made up of quinoa rocket, green beans, garden peas, kale and pomegranate) and the baked potato wedges and I liked the sound of their tzatziki, so I had that, alongside the satay sauce. It was delicious and a decent serving! So good and well thought with the flavours. I ate some of it down on the Quayside and kept the rest for another day, which was thoroughly enjoyed again! Only downside for me...this business is in Newcastle and I live in southwest England!More
(Greys street store) came in with my mum and sister and I was blown away! The portion size for what you pay is so generous and the staff were so kind ! Definitely coming back when I’m in Newcastle
GREY STEET LOCATION- This place looks and acts like its ran by a bunch of teenagers. Forgetful staff, very poor attitude, the pancakes made me sick, after I noticed a female staff cough onto the counter top where food is prepared, while over-hearing her say...she had food poisoning and was vomiting the day prior. Such rude staff, only one guy which was nice and apologetic, otherwise go somewhere else. Not worth it, bagels are really dry, they're really skimpy on their avocado bagels. Lastly, I used to be a morning regular but they always ran out of ingredients.More
Hairs in food. Wouldn't recommend. When i told the staff, Staff were very unconcerned and kept serving. Would not go back. Thanks
Very strange model whereby people are convinced food is low calorie by some odd marketing strategy that the food is ‘clean’. A made up word. Cakes that are ‘healthy’ despite being upwards of 500 cals. Staff rude and abrupt, dirty cafe with a lot of...crumbs and unclean tables. Not my choice to visit and certainty don’t recommend for anyone who can see through the facade marketing.More
I love the concept and this type of food. However I popped into Newcastle’s GREY STREET takeaway deli at around 4/4.30pm on 4th April and decided on a salad with chicken, and salmon as extra protein. I had initially commented to my daughter that the...food looked like it had been there all day, so I was abit hesitant but then saw someone else come in for a salad bowl and it looked ok, healthy and a good portion size, although it needed a good stir first. I had stomach pains through the night and was so so sick in the morning. All classic symptoms of food poisoning. I haven’t been right all week, and last night I was vomiting again. I couldn’t find a number to call, it seems there’s no direct customer services, so I sent a private message straight away, while I was poorly. I received a response after the bank holiday weekend but have had no follow up, as I was promised. Very disappointed.More
The store is super cosy, nice and well decorated. The prices of the café are good. For the prices of the food though I would have expected at least some nice cutlery and platter presentation (in the end it's £6 for salmon, scrambled eggs and...boiled broccoli), but everything came in disposable boxes and cutlery. Even the fancy smoothies came in plastic cups, which makes everything so un-ecofriendly. I understand they work with takeaways, but having a lot of nice indoor sitting means a certain standard of waiting service. Plus, if you work with healthy and vegan food I think you should be more environmentally aware.More
Newcastle store. Lunchtime Sunday. Entered at just before 12. Asked for a Bagel, young lass serving said they’re off as she took a tray of about 8 bagels into the back…. Literally as I was standing there. Then proceeded to climb on the counter and...change the sign for breakfast to lunch. In her trainers, on the bench where food is prepped … Asked for a smoothy. She proceeded to chop the whole apple up including seeds and put it all in. I had to stop and explain you don’t eat apple seeds, she was genuine confused as “it all just goes in the blender”, she made another with a total attitude as was clearly furious. 😂🤷♂️ Honestly. If this is your business you need to get an eye on some of the staff. Horrible attitude and a total lack of hygiene as well as an understanding of basic food health - in a supposed healthy eating place. Won’t be back. Train your staff or you’ll lose more customers.More
I’m currently on my fitness / pt journey (lol no sob story to follow) and trying to avoid eating out. BUT along comes The Naked Deli - the perfect excuse to eat out while still being on a healthy track! My boyfriend and I decided...to grab lunch one weekend post gym. I enjoyed the salmon with wild rice and kaleslaw while my man tucked into the Korean beef with broccoli and sweet potato. We also grabbed 2 smoothies! The food was great - you really felt great after eating all the fresh ingredients and in a decent sized portion that wasn’t calorific! The service was also very good with lovely staff. My only downside, hence a 4 not a 5, would be the price point - I did feel it was a little overpriced for what it was as the meals are healthy and uncomplicated. I definitely will be back but I may just grab a smoothie next time…More
As my flight was delayed and feeling quite peckish I stumbled across this place in Newcastle Airport..... I was not disappointed. Everything looked (and subsequently tasted) very fresh and very appetising, my choice was 3 salad sides and was pleasantly surprised at the portion size,...for £6 I satisfied my hunger with food that I thoroughly enjoyed. I recommend this place if you want a healthy and fresh choice of food. The lady who served me was very pleasant indeed and the servery where the food is kept is very clean and she was very knowledgeable about the choices on offer, a welcome change from the usual over priced cafes, I wish her and the Naked Deli every success and will be paying another visit next time I'm thereMore
Too long a wait for a terrible coffee and staff with attitude . Tables not clean and the toilet and stairs need a good clean
Great healthy options for breakfast and lunch. Also nice healthy drinks and treats available. Can dine in or takeaway. Bacon & egg breakfast bagel is really good (reasonably priced also)
So living just off Chillingham Road for a few years I’ve discovered there’s quite a few overhyped, trendy eateries in Heaton, not this place though. After going for a morning walk I decided to stop and order some lunch, I had the naked peanut chicken...satay wrap and it was absolutely stunning. I can’t believe I’ve never tried this place sooner, and I’ll definitely be back.More
Amazing healthy quick food reasonably priced, easy lunch plenty of GF options couldn’t recommend enough for a lunch time treat x
