I’m vegan and gluten intolerant and the vegan, no gluten cheesecakes are incredible! Such a good range and just so lush! Couldn’t recommend more.

What a lovely lady, genuine and caring. Not only does she do excellent cheesecake, but is the Newcastle unofficial guide to fabulous places to visit.

There is a small seating area inside and out. I can’t comment on the savoury items available, but the place did seem popular. I’ll definitely return at some point to sample more tasty cake.

The restaurant has a beautiful atmosphere, complete with a spacious garden, and is welcoming to both children and dogs. The menu is impressive, with a great selection of vegetarian and vegan options. The sandwiches and bagels are a great value, as they come with a tasty filling, salad, coleslaw, and crisps for under £5. The kids menu is also very good. The only downside is that on occasion, the toasties tasted a bit soapy, likely due to the machine being cleaned thoroughly. However, this attention to cleanliness is actually a positive in the current environment.

The quality of the restaurant was very disappointing. For 25 pounds, I could have gotten 10 meals from Aldi that would have been much better. read more The quality of the restaurant was very disappointing. For 25 pounds, I could have gotten 10 meals from Aldi that would have been much better.
