Warmth at the Tyneside Coffee Rooms

Takashi Oshimi reports on the warmth at the Tyneside Coffee Rooms
Situated in the heart of Newcastle’s city centre, Tyneside Coffee Rooms is one minute’s walk from Monument Metro Station, readily accessible by major bus routes, and has parking nearby with multi- storey car parks available on New Bridge Street and John Debson Street.
Since the cinema’s founder Dixon Scott opened in 1938, the Tyneside Coffee Rooms has been a local institution offering Italian atmospheric space with proper Italian coffee such as cappuccino and many more.

During the Second World War, the coffee rooms had to deal with lack of items hard to prepare those involving butter. But creative staff invented their own butter and margarine, which were also famously know as ‘Great and nutritious alternative’.
The coffee rooms prospered during the war and legendary specialities such as kidneys on toast become incredibly popular menu. Sir Ian Mckelln, Charlton Heston, John Hurt, Rowan Atkinson, Bryon Adams and many customers have been satisfied with authentic taste of these firm favourites.
In 2000, this rare example of fine cinema was recommended for a Grade 2 listing by English Heritage.

I think the Tyneside Coffee Rooms’s mix of comfort food and genuinely warm- hearted services treat Newcastle’s youth and old, literally everyone of else. Indeed, any gastronomic meal has exquisite taste and historical atmosphere for more than 70 years makes apparently difference. I could savour the moment with some of the favourites cakes, orange & cranberry cake (£2.95) and a cup of coffee, thanks for offering such a nice one.
