A Whitley Bay brunch destination pouring Pink Lane Coffee, Newcastle's specialty roaster. The food is the draw; the espresso is in better hands than most brunch spots bother with.

The Whitley Bay brunch spot that bothered to find a proper roaster.

no fret★★ Specialty

Rotates beans from four roasters at any one time. The kind of sourcing discipline that separates it cleanly from a standard espresso bar and gives regulars a reason to come back.

Relish★★ Specialty

The owner roasts on-site and will talk you through the process. Turkish coffee is on the menu, prepared and explained as a matter of course.

Rustic Cup★★ Specialty

Whitley Bay's first specialty coffee shop, opened by owners who trained in Florence on espresso and pour over. Retail single origin bags on the shelf, and the SCA grading scale explained on-site for anyone paying attention.
