Cafes in Newcastle and Gateshead

Pink Lane Coffee

Fancy a cuppa? Pull up a seat at one of the fantastic cafés that NewcastleGateshead has to offer.

From coffee shops that serve locally roasted, fresh artisan coffee and creamy Italian hot chocolates, to quirky teahouses brewing up unique, flavoured teas from around the globe, there’s a little something for everyone in Gateshead and Newcastle’s café scene.

Newcastle city centre is great for a relaxing afternoon alone with a book, lunch with friends and family, or even a filling breakfast to start your day. Choose between trendy spots like Pink Lane Coffee, or Quay Ingredient on the Quayside, or head to Olive and Bean or the vegan and vegetarian Super Natural Kitchen for laid-back, family-friendly atmosphere. Salad, soup, sandwiches or scones; whatever you fancy on your plate, the cafes in Newcastle and Gateshead have you covered.

Mog on the Tyne Cat Cafe

For something a little more unique, tea fans can enjoy homemade cakes and brownies alongside an array of fruity, fragrant and flavoursome teas at the Teahouse. Or why not visit one of Newcastle's famous cat cafes, including Mog on the Tyne, where you can meet some cuddly rescued kitties while sipping a 'catacino'!

You can also find a selection of quaint cafés further afield, such as top brunch spot Ernest in the Ouseburn Valley, Heaton’s Butterfly Cabinet and OCC or Arlo in Jesmond, as well as Acorn Road's newest addition Cake Stories, a vintage inspired cafe with desserts to die for.
