Quay Ingredient simple signage
Nestled under the Tyne Bridge, Quay Ingredient is a small, modern, daytime-only cafe.

Interior art of Quay Ingredient
I came across this lovely cafe by pure chance while walking along the river on a rare sunny day, and I wasn't the only one. Due to both its size and the delicious menu offerings it is frequently packed full, though if you've got time to wait for a table to clear it's well worth it.

Quay Ingredient menu options
Quay Ingredient is an independently-run venue, so it's a great option for those wanting to use their money to assist the locals, rather than paying into multinational corporations. The carefully-designed menu offers vegetarian options as well as gluten free and vegan items, though these are few. There is, however, a gorgeous array of herbal teas to choose from!

Cinnamon pancakes - I couldn't resist!
Quay Ingredient is open 8am - 5pm every day. Call ahead on 0191 447 2327 to check how busy it is.
