Quick info
About The Ganges
The Ganges is an Indian restaurant in Barnstaple, found at 87 Newport Rd. The kitchen cooks both Indian and Pakistani dishes, so the menu draws on two culinary traditions rather than one. It runs to a wide range of dishes instead of a short list. The business is also classed as a takeout restaurant, alongside its sit-down restaurant listing. Dogs are welcome, which means guests can bring their dog along when they come to eat.
