Absolutely fantastic. There are so many places that sell rubbish coffee and this is not one of them. By far the best coffee in town! Definitely recommend ��

Pleasant cafe on the Quayside. Not a large amount of Swedish products on sale. Not very big.

I went here today just on the off chance that they sold bagels and OMG bagels they do sell indeed! I ordered a smoked salmon and cream cheese bagel which was absolutely UNREAL. I was a little bit put off by the price of £4.50 but when I got to work and opened this little package of beauty ❤️ It was worth every single penny presentation was second to none and it’s definitely thee best tasting bagel I have ever had! Customer service from the young girl on the counter was amazing too! Keep up the good work guys I will definitely be back......... More...

Great view of Tyne, coffee is good and sandwiches are perfect. Very good value for money and polite staff. The place is usually quite, and I would definitely recommend for a quick bite or a casual business lunch. Pastries are also offered, and they look good. More...

Stopped here for breakfast on our travels after a stay in Newcastle central. Food was delicious, well priced and freshly hand made to order. Can recommend both the brie, apple and walnut sandwich as well as the Swedish waffles. Jonathan the owner is very friendly and had some great information for us about the region and our next stops. Thank you. More...
