Why it's worth checking out

Bartholomew's sits on King Street in Newcastle East, in the heart of the city near the harbour and the historic east end. A well-regarded restaurant, it's earned a strong reputation for its quality cooking and good drinks — the kind of accomplished, welcoming spot that's become a genuine favourite for a relaxed meal or a special night out in central Newcastle.

The appeal is that combination of quality food, a good drinks offering and a relaxed, characterful setting in a great Newcastle East location, ideal for a relaxed dinner, a catch-up over a meal or a sociable night out. In a lively part of the city, a quality restaurant that's nailed both its food and its atmosphere really stands out, and Bartholomew's has clearly won over a loyal following.

With a 4.5 rating from more than 740 reviews, it's clearly delighting its diners. Menus, drinks lists, opening hours and pricing change with the seasons, and a popular restaurant fills up over weekends, so it's worth checking current details and booking directly where needed before you go — particularly for a weekend, a group or a table at a peak time in Newcastle East.
