The Broad Chare
Upstairs in the Dining Room, it’s all reassuringly simple with solid wood tables, sturdy schoolroom chairs and shiny brass coat-hooks.

Early booking prior to concert. Good choice on menu, pleasant service. Food was really tasty and good value.
Lovely Sunday Lunch with friends from down South. The team easy accommodated us arriving an hour earlier than we had booked the table.
Lovely hearty food in a chilled atmosphere
Cannot fault this place. Delicious food from starters to dessert. Great service. Efficient yet relaxed. Rare lunch date with the hubby....perfect! Only wish we got more chance to visit the Broad Chare.
Lunchtime meal. Poor fish and chips for price, very little fish but plenty of batter. Chocolate mousse very bland. Not as good as last visit. Good pint of speckled hen. Would not rush back or recommend to others.
We had another very good experience at Broad Chare. Our friends, who'd not been before, were won over.
First time we'd been here but we'll definitely be back! Beautiful place, clean and nicely set out. Food is amazing and service was great. I don't normally like it when a service charge is automatically charged, as I like to tip depending on my experience, but on this occasion it was deserved. Overall a lovely place.
I really like the Broad Chare so perhaps this was an off day. Our server was friendly enough but one hardly gets an acknowledgement from anyone else particularly when leaving. The burger and fishcakes took 35 minutes and needed a reminder and very disappointingly the burger is no longer avaiable pink presumably because of H&S.
The food, runs and service were great. The only thing I can moan about is the fact that if you buy and expensive bottle of wine (or two) you get charged 10% extra for them, so a £60 bottle of wine is really £66, etc. Thanks, Clive
Excellent food, excellent service, warm, welcoming and friendly staff.
Great food in a relaxed atmosphere
Many thanks for giving us a great night. Our visitors from south africa gave you full marks all round.
Once again the Broad Chare has come up trumps. We ordered the 1kg Rump which came perfectly cooked. Don't really know how we had room for starters and Puds too but we did. Thanks again to the Broad Chare for a excellent meal and dining experience. We will be back!
Never had a bad meal here - Broad Chare now top of our go-to list in town for any occasion, outstanding meals with great service
Quaint Gastro pup with a pleasant atmosphere, helpful service and a good choice of food all of which was cooked toerfection
Meal for a family birthday. We enjoyed a good meal and helpful srrvice. Certainly recommend this placd. A little expensive for what is on offer.
Great evening . Acoustics in restaurant were a distraction.
Great pub, lovely food & great for night out with friends. Very loud group in on Friday night which meant over dinner we were shouting to be heard. Veg options are v limited
went today for fish and chips seeing as it was good Friday but don't think it was value for money we ordered 3 portions with 1 kids portion and we couldn't see a difference apart from double the price the fish was nice but about 12 oven chips and a small fish for £12.50 isn't value for money I'm afraid
Visited with family of 4 for late Sunday Lunch. Had a drink in the bar downstairs, good friendly service. Three of us ordered Roast beef and Yorkshire pudding . We were not impressed with the meal, had much better elsewhere. The Yorkshire pudding, roast potatoes and cauliflower cheese were probably made early morning as they did not taste fresh. They do charge 10% for service, but we did not mind as the service was very good.
Sunday lunch was excellent. Lovely atmosphere and friendly, attentive service.
Fabulous as always, never disappoints and great helpful staff. Wish cafe 21 group would open at the coast!
My sisters and I enjoyed our evening although the food could have been better. Frozen prawns, only just defrosted so a little watery and the liver was over cooked so rather tough. However, it was a good atmosphere and a nice place to be
Nice upmarket pub feel, menu hasn’t changed for years but what’s there is excellent. Decent selection of beers although wine list a bit uninspiring. Comfortable. Very good service!
Excellent Sunday lunch, service charge added for 3 people which seemed excessive.
We had a great night at the Broad Chare! Great food with locally sourced ingredients in a convivial and cosy atmosphere. Have already recommended to family and friends :)
Friendly staff and great food 😁
Broad Chare has been my restaurant of choice in Newcastle since it opened.
I like the dish of the day Thursday Steak and Kidney pudding especially.
Staff efficient courteous.
Good value for money
Once again, another very nice meal. The staff are friendly and food was top notch. I had the fish cakes, but had food envy over the ham hock that was served on a Wednesday. My guests from India also loved the Writer's Block!
Really good interesting menu, and with daily 'traditional' specials. I had a pigeon and celeriac starter and then mince meat and dumplings. Good value and in great location by the quayside. We will go again next time we are in Newcastle.
What a fantastic Sunday lunch.....one of the best we have had for a long time. Accompanied by a nice bottle of wine, good service even though it was a busy restaurant. Will be calling in again when next in Newcastle 😀
Great service and very good food
would highly recommend
We had been recommended to go by friends. The three of us were welcomed by the very pleasant staff. We enjoyed our meal with a reasonably-priced bottle of wine. Everything arrived in good time and was freshly cooked. Very important with fish and chips! The restaurant was packed but we were still able to chat without feeling the need to shout. Couldn't fault it and will go again.
Broad Chare offers such a variety of hearty and flavorsome meals.
The atmosphere is really nice based on the number of covers they have.
Coupled with an amazing selection of beers and wine bins, you cannot go wrong!!
Excellent location and the food and service were first class
Always an enjoyable experience at Broad Chare, with friendly staff and great food. Our only niggle is that... like so many places nowadays... acoustics are not taken seriously enough. Hard surfaces everywhere, with no softness to reduce a very high ambient noise level. It's sometimes difficult to hold a conversation even just with one other diner. A shame but, regrettably, not unusual today.
great service lovely food nice ambience had a lovely meal
Really great food and wine we had the sharing rump steak so delicious couldn’t fit anything else in so full
Excellent as always. This is a firm favourite every time we visit newcastle.
I usually visit this restaurant twice a year as it never disappoints. Lovely smart/casual dining experience.
