10 E Parade, Whitley Bay NE26 1AP, United Kingdom

“One of the busiest places and we were lucky enough to grab a couple of seats. Brunch was amazing. The Eggs Florentine were perfect, soft yolky and covered in hollandaise sauce sat on a muffin. Good sourdough, coffee and service.”

“Very good experience! There was no free inside table when we walked in. We were offered to wait outside on the seaside terrace and asked inside as soon as a table was available. Cake was very good. Coffee too. Beautifully decorated shop. Nice toilets with a secluded corner for a changing table and a chair for nursing. 👍 Kids menue and babyccino available. Access to the beach just across the street and big playground around the corner.”

Foundry Lane Studios, Foundry Ln, Newcastle upon Tyne NE6 1LH, United Kingdom

“A late posting of a Saturday lunch from September. Have been previously for dinner and the lunch time service and quality was just as good. Informal and unpretentious in the most stylish way... Absolutely recommend if you are looking to eat in the ouseburn.”

The Quayside | INNSiDE by Melia Hotel |, Bridge Court, River view, Newcastle upon Tyne NE1 3BE, United Kingdom

“The best located restaurant in Newcastle! Sat upon the river Tyne with stunning views of the bridges. Outside space is also perfect with terraces and a beautiful outside bar. The food is authentically amazing with wonderful pastas , pizza and other stunning mains including Veal, duck and mouth watering seafood. I absolutely love this place. It's my go-to. It has a Uber vibe which relaxes you immediately with background sounds oozing from resident DJs and spectacular displays of food being prepared and created from the open kitchen . Go to this restaurant and come out feeling special.”

“My wife and I went here for a pasta making masterclass and it exceeded our expectations. Our host / teacher was Chris and he was great - incredibly knowledgeable but fun with it. Quality of ingredients and equipment was great and you really don't need too much skill or effort to make something delicious. Whilst making the pasta we were given some great homemade garlic bread and some Italian snacks and drinks which were really nice. Once we'd made our pasta the restaurant chefs cooked it with sauces to match. Far too much food to finish but they they only cooked us what we wanted to eat and the rest was boxed up (both cooked with sauce and raw) the remainder for us to take home. Would thoroughly recommend, very reasonable prices and a really high quality product and experience 👌”

“So heard good things about this place, finally paid a visit to find out the reviews were from the previous owners absolutely Shocking now !!!! visited at lunch time with my Boyfriend... 1st The Service..... was slow, even after we had finished our starters (which I will get into in a moment...) our empty plates were sat for a good 10 minutes before anyone noticed we had finished. finally come and took them away and asked if all was ok , once we had finished not during! we did not comment as of yet as wanted to see what our mains were like before commenting. 2nd Starters..... I ordered one of my Fave's, 'Cozze Crema' Mussels in a White wine sauce with sourdough. from the first bit there was a strange taste in the sauce, but I pursued with it. Mussel by Mussel they got worse and worse and I could not even finish them they were the worst I've ever eaten. My Boyfriend ordered 'Polpette Italian Meatballs', these were frozen meatballs, tasteless, stale and no flavour what so ever. 3rd..... As we are sat waiting for our mains, we hear a Microwave door and get turned on, we looked over to the kitchen instantly to see 2 Asians working in the kitchen of a so called Italian Restaurant!!! with the Microwave going a few times. 4th The Mains....25 minutes after our starters had been taken away, our main finally came. I asked "was any of this microwaved" Reply " yes!, just the Seasonal Veg"....Me "ok I am not eating that". Servers reply "I can swop it for salad, bread ect". I was not impressed, who wants salad with a hot Salmon in a sauce you want Veg, right!? anyways I went with Salad. Whilst the server had gone for the salad I take a look at my Salmon, peel back the skin to find this Fatty consistency, who gets fat on Salmon ?? and the salmon was mushy... turned to my Boyfriend to see his face after eating a little of his pasta, totally tasteless the same sauce the meatballs came in and when tried one of his Prawns he then passed me one to try.. this was the most chewiest prawn I had ever tried. Yes you got it, we did not finish eating the prawn it went straight back on the plate. 5th The Restaurant.... No background music, dated, no atmosphere what so ever and the staff were idol. The server then came back with my salad, this actually looked ok but when tried a cucumber and it was just full of oil... We complained to the server about the mains and starters and agreed we was not eating or buying anything else. he agreed for us to just pay for our drinks.. We headed over to pay and the guy taking payments then tried charging us for the starters, thee cheek after we had just been advised to only pay for drinks... We will most definitely not be back here. Shocking experience, both our stomachs have been feeling iffy since... We do not under any circumstances Advise anyone to eat here.

87-89 Grey St, Newcastle upon Tyne NE1 6EG, United Kingdom

“Dine here on a regular basis. It is genuinely one of the most authentic Tapas restaurants I have been to in the UK. I’m often travelling to Malaga, and a lot of the dishes taste almost identical. Staff are so lovely and overall every time I go, I have a fantastic experience. It’s worth every penny.”

80 High St E, Wallsend NE28 7RH, United Kingdom

“Upon entering the restaurant we were greeted promptly, however when myself and my son ordered food the waitress had pushed a wrong button, which in turn led us having food served separately.i can not understand why you would fetch a plate of food out for one person and then explain my son has to wait 10mins for correct pizza we ordered.we came out to eat together NOT SEPARATELY!!!! So unprofessional”

13 High Bridge, Newcastle upon Tyne NE1 1UW, United Kingdom

“Wow! An absolutely beautiful bar/restaurant. Amazing decor and lovely, relaxed atmosphere. Guy playing the piano and singing…. Wonderful! We had three courses plus oysters. The double baked cheese soufflé is to die for…. Mmmmmm! Sunday lunch was gorgeous and meat was tender too. Veggies and potatoes etc really nice. Only let down was the giant Yorkshire pudding which was hard and dry. I absolutely love Yorkshire puddings but that part was a little bit of a let down. Otherwise, gorgeous.”

“Came for brunch on a sunny day in tynemouth, sat outside under the shade and ordered a full English and eggs Royale with a oat latte and a tea for one (which squeezes out 3 full brews). Came to 24 quid. Food was lovely. Staff were brilliant even though it was really busy and there was only 2 of them. Georgia and her colleague managed well. Lovely spot to watch the world go by with some nice food. Also the toilets were very clean and interior is nice too.”

Jesmond Rd, Jesmond, Newcastle upon Tyne NE2 1PR, United Kingdom

“First time here, I don't know what I was expecting but whatever it was I was definitely impressed! Smart place, we had a Groupon for Saturday's which was incredibly good value. The 🍕 is on another level, cooked super fresh from scratch, it's up there with the best I've had. I liked the bar as well comfortable. The open plan kitchen pizzeria was nice. The staff were super accommodating and mega friendly! I'd come back for sure. 😁”
