About Terrace RESTAURANT
Terrace Restaurant is a cafe on Northumberland Street in Newcastle upon Tyne, set inside Fenwick's department store. The menu runs from breakfast through to lunch, with a bun alongside bacon and mushroom, a club sandwich, and Battenberg cake served either to eat in or take away. Coffee and cakes are offered alongside the fuller meals, and old style bottled coke sits on the drinks list next to wine by the glass. The cafe opens daily and takes walk-ins rather than bookings, so tables are available on arrival. A step-free, wheelchair-accessible entrance means visitors with mobility needs can reach the cafe without navigating steps. Being housed within Fenwick's places the cafe within the department store's building, giving shoppers a stop for coffee, cake or a sandwich without leaving the premises.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often single out the friendly staff at the Terrace Restaurant, with several describing servers who have time for each customer and clear tables promptly. One reviewer credits a team member with kindly resolving an order mistake, and another says the manager made a family with a wheelchair user feel welcome. On the food, diners name the club sandwich as outstanding, and one praises the Battenberg as the only one still made in Newcastle. Others mention the coffee, coffee cake, old style bottled coke, a little wine, and the return of wholesome in house cooked meals alongside reduced sugar tray bake puddings. One reviewer says it costs a little more than the big coffee chains. The recurring complaint is the breakfast menu: two long-time breakfast regulars are disappointed that the bacon and mushroom stottie was replaced by a bun, and one asks for it to be reinstated. Another reviewer recalls the cooked meal moving downstairs last year, before hot dishes came back to the terrace on a wet, busy day.

“Have been coming here for breakfast for quite a few years. Very friendly and lovely staff. Very disappointed that the bacon and mushroom stottie has been replaced by a bun. I would be grateful if the stottie could be reinstated.”
