Popped into the cafe today to feed my baby. The owner is a lovely lady and made us feel very welcome. I had a lovely slice of cake and a can of pop as it was a hot day but I saw food being served which looked lovely. Prices are great and there's even a small play area for kids so I'll definitely be returning with my 4 year old! What really impressed me was how brilliant the owner was with all of the customers, she definitely has some regulars!

Massively underrated chill yet family friendly café tucked away in the Roebuck shopping centre, with nice decor and a kids play area to boot. Chatted with the owner, who is a warm, welcoming and very hardworking Ukranian woman who runs the place pretty much solo with utmost dedication to make everything pleasant and foster a nice atmosphere. I had the festive brunch which featured a panini with turkey, brie cheese and cranberry and some seasonal mulled wine tea from a collection of festive teas, generous portions of ingredients are used so its well worth your money, also had a home baked carrot cake, mocha and got a sausage roll to go. Genuinely one of my new favorite places in Newcastle that not many know about, can't recommend this joint highly enough, I'm going back to try the meatballs next, stop by if you want to have your day made by this severely slept on café. Five stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

A fantastic find in the Roebuck shopping centre. Lots of tables under the glass roof, and excellent service of some really interesting choices. We had Staffordshire oatcakes (a local speciality), a ham & cheese croissant, which was lovely, and Siberian dumplings, which we loved! If you don't know what they're like, they're a bit like Polish pierogi. Everything was delicious and served on hot plates, and the coffee was good too. Highly recommended.
