Topped with a chervil and dill souffle sauce and baked until puffed up. Served with a creamy lentil and tomato sauce flavour with ginger As my friend lived nearby, we came across Sky Apple and came here for dinner without a reservation. It is recommended to have a reservation as they were busy and fairly booked! We shared a starter, and each got a main. The Japanese style kebabs starter was tasty. It was served on top of rice which was a bit wet, but was seasoned like sushi rice. The Xinxim curry I got was good too! It isn’t spicy. It was creamy, sweet and savoury. I really liked the fritter on the side that was topped with refreshing. My friend enjoyed her Souffle pancake as well although it didn’t quite meet the expectations she had with the description. The crepe was more shortcut pasty than flaky and light to her. The restaurant is charming and eclectic – the walls were sky blue with painted clouds, and there were paper pom poms hung on the ceiling, a bright and fun vibe indeed! The service was good. Overall, the food was tasty, not cheap but still quite reasonably priced. I liked that it wasn’t the typical vegetarian and vegan food (i.e. hummus, burgers, etc.), and that although the menu isn’t extensive, they offer a variety of cuisines.

The best falafels in Newcastle. Sooo many veggie options to try.

What's not to love? Seasonal menus, build your own brunch, perfect for vegetarians and vegans, cosy decor, amazing value, homemade everything (including bacon and vegan cheese), takeaway available and a deli next door. Sky Apple café, please keep doing what you're doing.

The chef at the cafe is a genius and the menu changes monthly. The atmosphere is excellent and the prices are very reasonable.

First time visit, went for the club sandwich which was very tasty and my son went with the cheese burger and salad which was also very tasty and the side salad was almost a meal in itself, good selection of veggie dishes with a children's menu also. Decent selection of hot, cold and alcoholic drinks which I think are all vegan. Try the "proper chips", they're proper chips!!! Will definitely go back.
