Beyoncé wowed Sunderland on Tuesday as she stopped off at the Stadium of Light on her Renaissance tour - and the music megastar made the most of local foodie favourites during her visit.
Queen Bey has been buying meals for her team to enjoy wherever they go on the European leg of the huge tour after their hard work of putting on a show. And staging a gig requires plenty of fuel - the Crazy In Love singer recently went viral after racking up an impressive £1,800 bill at Nando's in Edinburgh.
The news led to North East bakery giant Greggs inviting the star to stop off at one of their branches for all the steak bakes and sausage rolls she could eat. But Beyoncé apparently instead opted for a takeaway from Washington's Bombay Barn and placed a mouth-watering order, The Mirror reports.

Sharing Beyoncé's apparent receipt on their Facebook page, Bombay Barn claimed that the singer's team had ordered a curry tapas box - which included chicken masala, lamb curry, chicken bhuna, vegetable bhajis, pilau rice and Indian chunky chips. Along with a smashed pizza burger, the order came to a total of £41.98, and was reportedly delivered straight to the stage door, according to the Front Street venue.
Bombay Barn posted on Facebook: "Nothing to see here, just a takeaway order for BEYONCÉS crew, with delivery backstage at her gig at The Stadium of Light!" The shocked staff added hashtags including "#mindblown" and "#claimtofame".
Fans of the takeaway rushed to congratulate them, with one person writing in the comments section: "They've ordered from the right place."
"That's fantastic for you and for them. Best food around," someone else said.
However, some followers were more sceptical about the receipt. "Mmm, deffo not her. Good job in trying to promote business," one person joked.
But the restaurant quickly hit back: "We hope it is, as that's a real order and that's really where we're delivering to!"
The takeaway wasn't the only local scran that Beyoncé apparently tried out on her trip to the region. After arriving on Wearside, the star and her team tucked into some goodies from Northern Rye including a selection of handmade pastries, with the Riverside Walk business revealing their VIP order on Instagram.
