Newroz

Newroz on Southcoates Lane takes its name from the Kurdish New Year celebration — a culturally significant name that signals the kitchen's identity as a Kurdish and Middle Eastern takeaway. It serves the inner east Hull community, one of a small number of Kurdish establishments in the city reflecting the community that has settled in east Hull over recent decades. The Kurdistan Restaurant at kurdistanrestauranthull.com is the related Hull Kurdish dining brand.

The kitchen brings dishes from the Kurdish culinary tradition to a Southcoates Lane neighbourhood: slow-cooked lamb, rice pilaf, grilled meats and flatbreads that differ markedly from the pizza-and-kebab shops dominating the surrounding streets. TripAdvisor reviewers of Hull's Kurdish restaurant scene praise the friendly staff and authentic food at reasonable prices. A distinctive independent in an east Hull takeaway landscape largely given over to Italian-style fast food — one of the few Kurdish kitchens in the city.
