Quick info
About Capri
On Newgate in Barnard Castle, Capri serves Italian food in a walk-in dining room with no reservations taken. The kitchen works from an Italian menu, and diners are seated as tables become available. It opens Tuesday to Sunday and closes on Mondays, giving the week a steady rhythm rather than daily service. The format suits people passing through the town who want a sit-down meal without planning ahead. Being a short walk from the surrounding streets, it fits into a visit without needing to call in advance.

“Food was spot on. Starters main were lovely. What let this place down was the service. It was the owners daughter that was serving us and there was no please or thank you. She lent over someone else's meal to serve another, we got the impression that she was only there because she had to be.”

“Has our 6th visit in 3 months last night and it was amazing! We're slowly working our way through the fabulous menu! Great service and lovely atmosphere too. We'll be back soon!”

“This is a large venue but even on a cold May evening with only a few tables full the place had a cheery vibe. The service was excellent and the food was the same. Decent sized portions, well presented!”
- Richard Vaughan
“The wine and food are reasonably priced. Amount you are served is good. The pizza base is too doughy and fluffy. Needs to be thinner and crispy. Atmosphere is a bit flat, the music is poor, the system used to play the music is very poor. …”

“We had the pleasure of eating here a few days ago. Proper, authentic Italian cuisine in the heart of Teesdale. Its located just a short walk from the main high street in Barnard Castle where there are a number of fantastic local bars, restaurants and independent cafes and shops. The food here was amazing and very reasonably priced and the staff are very helpful and friendly. This place is well worth a visit the next time you visit Barnard Castle.”
