read moreThe café 21 is a real “grown” restaurant that doesn’t try to be smart. easy to eat and service. I can see why it had recommended so many. top place.
Went here for a Saturday lunch and it is REALLY deserving of 5 stars.
Cafe 21 is a nice option for higher-end European food in Newcastle's Quayside.

read moreThis restaurant, run by Terry Laybourne, is an established institution in Newcastle that has brought fine dining and promoted local ingredients in the region. The tasting menu offered was only five courses, with the cheese course as an additional option. While some diners found the portions to be on the smaller side for a five-course meal, the overall dining experience was excellent. The service received high praise, with attentive staff and delicious food. However, there were some issues reported, such as a tooth breaking on hard bread and a dispute over payment for a dental bill. Despite these incidents, many diners enjoyed the food and wine offerings, with signature dishes like the cheese soufflé receiving rave reviews. Overall, the restaurant offered a great dining experience with room for improvement in certain areas.
