Needed somewhere to work whilst staying in Newcastle between Christmas and New Year and this was the perfect place. It’s the restaurant of a nice hotel and the service was great. Lovely couple of pastries that I offered on arrival, choice of plenty of tables all with power supply and good WiFi. Upgraded to the burger menu as I was recommended and it was great. Noise level was low but took a few work calls without feeling like I was talking to everyone in the place as just enough background noise.

A confirmed Open Table booking wasn’t recognised by the restaurant which caused some anxiety at first, particular as it was for a large group. However, the staff managed to pull together a table quickly and were very helpful and attentive.
