Local NCL

Local NCL is a casual, old-school corner shop and speciality coffeehouse in Jesmond, Newcastle. Pouring their hearts out since 2021, this independent shop and take-away coffee spot source the best the North East and the UK has to offer, bringing it all together in one place.

All of their coffees, fresh orange juices and ice creams are available to go, from opening to close, everyday. If the weather is good, score a seat in their outside space to soak up the sunshine alongside your coffee.

The team behind LOCAL truly believe that consistency and independence is key, and they back this up with their numerous fully trained baristas and high quality equipment. Their smooth Colombian house roast, that you will always find in the hopper, is roasted by an indy just up the road in Morpeth.

Not only can you grab a coffee, a cookie or a homemade lunch bowl here, they also specialise in artisanal goods sourced from all over the UK. Everything they stock is created by a skilled person with dreams, not a factory full of machines and production lines. Championing the independents and the small producers, who they believe do it better than the big corps.

At LOCAL you will find natural wines, artisanal spirits and craft beers on their shelves making it hard to leave without picking up something great, however coffee is their true love. Stocking bags of take-home coffee beans from some of the best independent coffee roasters across the UK. You will find a huge selection of different roasters and coffees on their shelves. LOCAL pride themselves on every single bag of coffee being small batch with super fresh roast dates. They will even take the time to grind each bag specifically to order, so it is perfect for you and your brewing method.
