Quick info
About Primavera
Primavera is an Italian restaurant at 568A Durham Rd on Low Fell in Gateshead, used for family birthday parties and special occasions as well as by couples and groups. When a birthday party is in, the staff sing happy birthday and ask the whole table to stand, which turns a celebration meal into a shared moment. The menu offers minestrone as a starter, with pepperoni pizza and beef risotto among the dishes ordered. A specials board lists main meals that change regularly. The lunch deal combines soup, a pizza and a coffee.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often single out the value, with the lunch deal and three-course offers described as remarkable for what arrives. One lunch diner had minestrone soup, a pepperoni pizza and a coffee and couldn't fault it. Others describe soup to start that was thick and tasty, and main meals from the specials board as faultless. Close behind, one reviewer calls the beef risotto one of the best things eaten in years, and several mention well portioned plates and specials that change regularly. Staff come up repeatedly as friendly, professional and attentive, and diners say food arrived on time even when the restaurant was busy. The one drawback raised is access: because the restaurant is on the first floor, one reviewer notes there is no wheelchair access. Family birthday gatherings recur in the reviews, including a waitress who was warm and kind to a fussy nephew, and a celebration where everyone was asked to stand and sing happy birthday.
