Our Story

WE ARE AN AWARD-WINNING INDIAN AND BANGLADESHI RESTAURANT THAT HAS BEEN SETTLED IN THE MARKET TOWN OF BARNARD CASTLE FOR THE PAST 25 YEARS. LET US TAKE YOU ON A JOURNEY WITH THE TEXTURES AND TASTES OF SOUTH ASIA.

Babul’s is a homage to the vibrant dishes across the regions of South Asia and a tribute to one of the best Indian chefs, our father – Rafique Uddin Babul, to ever step foot in the United Kingdom.

Babul’s opened, what was known previously Spice Island, in Barnard Castle in 1995 with a mission to revolutionise the way the public perceived South Asian cuisine; using recipes and techniques that were brought straight from our home. This mission still runs within our blood today, one bite at a time.
