Blackfriars, Newcastle Upon Tyne

our sons took us here for the mums XX birthday so we didnt want to complain . But we were just stuck ona random table near to the bar and next to the waiting area. I asked if we could be moved and a frosty woman said sorry were full. The food arrived fairly quickly after we had orderd a drink , No draugh beer and most bottles of Bud etc were £4 a go . when the food arrived it was the smallest portions for a main course we had ever seen we all laughed as we lifted the contents to see if anthing was underneath.. nope . It was tasty all right but mean portions . The sweet was nice but only ordered because we were all stil starving. If you are a good eater dont go here . Try Chinatown just round the corner on stowell street. The prices were very high so not good value for money and the shabby sheek surroundings with artificial electric " Candle main lights flickering" was a bit naff.

Not as refined as we had expected, but beautiful surroundings and food. Generous portions of british food. Excellant service. Menu seemed a little small and not as inspiring as we had hoped but the food we had was superb.
