My daughter and I visited today and were pleasantly surprised, from the outside this hidden gem looks a bit run down but when you step through the doors you enter food heaven. The food was delicious, highly recommend the vegan stew and vegan hot chocolate. We came away full to the brim after being tempted by vegan chocolate cake! I can’t wait to go back to my new favourite place
Popped in for a take away coffee booked a table for today for 5 adults. We did have a wait for our food, however, it was worth waiting for. Absolutely loved the hummus sharing platter. And my mam commented it was the best frittata she'd ever had. Everyone else enjoyed theirs too. Yesterday I asked if there was a children's menu and was told no. We did notice yesterday that a child was eating from a lunch box so we came prepared for my daughter who thoroughly enjoyed her hot chocolate. And we enjoyed our espresso and walnut cake and lemon drizzle. Definitely be back (soon I hope!).
No better way to spend a few hours on a Saturday afternoon than to drop in at the Kiln for delicious food and of course there massive array of bottled ales!!!!!!! An absolute hidden gem in what I class is the best place by a country mile, Ouseburn 😊😊
I discovered Kiln a few months ago, and since then I've become a regular visitor! It's such a lovely cosy place to be, with the wood burning stove and all the candles. The selection of beers is great and all the food I've had has been lovely. The cakes in particular are fantastic, proper homemade cakes, with some of my favourites being a lemon cake and a rose-infused Victoria sponge. The staff are always lovely and welcoming. I love the fact you can see through to the pottery next door, and all the crockery is made there too. Once when I visited they seemed lacking in menus so my only feedback would be to print more of them.
New absolute fave place to eat and drink in Newcastle - such beautiful food with gorgeous fresh flavours and amazing coffee, presented on the most beautiful pottery. And those CAKES � lush staff, lush music, lush vibe.
I went to kiln today and was blown away by the very friendly staff
And the amazing taste and freshness of the food I was served!
I can’t say enough good things about this place!
I’ll definitely be back you just got yourself a new regular ��
What a fantastic find - definitely be back - such a hidden gem - if we hadn't come to the Ouseburn Festival we would never have known it was there - highly highly recommend
Lovely little gem of a place. Great food and the best selection of beers and ales and an even better selection of teas!
It's got Beer and Cake! so that's 100% of the population catered for....been here a few time's when we visit the Ouseburn, the staff are friendly and the whole place has a relaxed vibe about it, great background music also, Love it ��
We visited kiln for a Saturday lunch and weren’t disappointed! The staff were really friendly, the aesthetic of the restaurant was lovely and the food was fabulous! We ordered the hummus sharing platter - the salads, hummus and warm sourdough were delicious. Thanks Kiln, see you again soon!
Wonderful atmosphere, charming staff and delicious food. A great bolt hole in Byker.
Great place sort of hidden.Nice selection of drinks ,nice staff and great atmosphere . Will be back . But are dogs allowed and in particular George ?
Excellent food and beer, friendly and helpful staff. Quirky place as it is on the back of a ceramics studio. Great using ceramics made on the premises. Love the tea cups and saucers. Looking forward to visiting again.
Took my better half to experience the kiln and the food and customer service were superb would totally recommend them especially as they had tame impala playing on the iPad totally chilled after a hard day's work
Gorgeous food and very friendly staff. Loved sitting eating the food in the outside area and getting to see the pottery section in action too! Highly recommend!
Such a lovely relaxed cafe. Good food and coffee, wood burning stove and comfy settees. Great service too. Many thanks.
We came here twice during our weekend trip to Newcastle, so we’re pretty big fans.
The flavours of the food and ambiance of the bar/restaurant are 5 ⭐️. However, we found the service to be a bit hasty in clearing our plates while we were still picking at dips.
Secondly, the Turkish Breakfast was lovely,” - but it really needed a hummus or dip of some sort on the plate.
Overall a great spot - the homemade sourdough pittas are incredible.
We stopped by for lunch and enjoyed the delicious food, although the portions were a bit small for the price. It's on the pricier side, but the taste made up for it. The atmosphere is fantastic, and I personally enjoyed the ambiance. Service was good too. Overall, a great place for a tasty meal in a lovely setting, despite the portion size and cost.
Best restaurant in newcastle. Period.
Serving Middle Eastern/Mediterranean style tapas which were SO flavourful and fresh made with high quality ingredients, the food was well presented, the atmosphere was super cozy and comfortable, we got all but 2 dishes on the menu as we wanted a range of dishes to try; most dishes were 10/10 however falafels were dry and over cooked, they served a nice range of cocktails - although I didn’t like mine as it tasted too much like liquorice (but we went for my birthday celebration and they took it off the bill as a present🫶🏻❤️). The staff were so so kind and super friendly, we were just chatting away and we they even gave us really good recommendations for dishes - super polite and knowledgeable about their restaurant.
There is no competition as to what the best restaurant in newcastle is, it IS this one! 💖 (and I’m a simple girl so obviously my fave thing was the houmous and freshly made pita😘🤌🏼)
NEED to go back for brunch!
We had an amazing meal at Kiln at the weekend. The staff were incredibly helpful with my partner's dietary requirements. He's dairy and gluten free, and the chef came and had a chat with him to see what would be best to order. His food came out on a separate plate as well to avoid any contamination.
I loved it here and can't wait to visit again.
We booked a large group for lunch (11 people) and they were excellent. We all felt very well taken care of; the staff were super friendly and helpful, and the food was incredible. We even took home some amazing pottery from their kiln!
Such a great place to go, I can’t recommend them enough !!
Fantastic meal here. Love the Middle Eastern inspired small plates! The little table lamps add a touch of romanticism! Great sized portions! You can have a wonder to the pottery area and see all the work in progress. They use these plates for serving food which gives you some inspiration!! It’s also dog friendly which is a big bonus!!!!
Beautiful place for a bite to eat or a drink. Had been wanting to come for a while and was not dissapointes, flawless and welcoming service with amazing food. The best lamb shank I have ever had.
Calm, quiet place, good for morning coffee or food.. You can buy a unique ceramic stuff or enjoy pottery class.
We were introduced to this wonderful restaurant on a foodie walking tour today. We had sharing platters, including a wonderful cheese, home made hummus, red pepper dip, freshly made pittas and a delicious wine to wash it down. Very nice.
Just stunning. Go! Go! Go!
My favourite brunch spot in Newcastle. Reserve online or walk-in as it’s surprisingly quiet. The design is trendy with a factory like vibe. The dinnerware is cool, with the plates and mugs being made in the kiln next door.
The service is great and the food is special. Everything is a treat. The shakshuka was deep and rich and the flat iron steak was tender and meaty. We had the fruit and berries with coconut and vanilla yoghurt on the side👌
Don’t forget to grab some fresh bread and pastries on the way out too!
I was visiting my daughter who’s at the uni and we wanted to find somewhere unusual with a great atmosphere and food. This place is a total gem. The staff were so friendly and welcoming. The food was delicious and the cakes made by the owners mother were sublime. We went for brunch but will definitely be going back for lunch or dinner next time I come up.
If you like high quality food and a place with a vibe,
come here to find your tribe.
Not even sure how may I start this place to describe,
but before I do, like, comment, follow, subscribe.
Plates are designed for sharing you will see,
so instead of ordering for me, go for we.
Variety for meat lovers, plant eaters and diet cheaters.
For the flavour curious, the beer drinkers and for the plate repeaters.
Staff and service is outstanding,
I guess it becomes even part of the restaurant branding,
make sure to make a reservation so they don’t leave you standing,
and be ready to claim that this place has been your finding.
One of my favourite restaurants in Newcastle, the brunch and evening food is always outstanding. The atmosphere in the restaurant is so cosy. The perfect place for a casual meal and a few drinks with friends.
The small plates are excellent with a large variety of dishes. The cocktails are also fantastic.
Discovered this place a week ago and we have already been back for more! The meze is wonderful and the staff take real care with recommendations and describing the food when asked. Best hummus I have had in the UK as well! We signed up for the free pottery class and it was a great experience.
Went for dinner a few weeks ago. Been meaning to post this. Always good food and service with a smile. Can get a bit crowded, especially with multiple dishes being predominantly meze, small tables can make it tricky - however, doesn’t take away from the experience. Will be back soon!
