Reviews of Peace & Loaf restaurant
j. b.
Went for the festive vegetarian tasting menu but asked ahead if they could make it vegan, peace and loaf did not disappoint. They just couldn't make one of the pudding courses vegan so gave a cocktail instead. We were looked after by the staff really well through our visit and all the dishes were amazing. Definitely worthy of a five star rating.
v. j.
Incredible! The atmosphere, the team and the food made the whole experience 5 star. Everything on the £65 tasting menu was delicious, the flavours matched perfectly and we were definitely full by the end of it. Thank you so much to the whole team and we hope to be back!
D. R.
Fantastic from start to finish. There was so much food it was a challenge at the end. The wine pairing was top notch. Michelin prices, but it's worth the treat. I'm not sure why you're still reading this - just go.

Excellent experience at Peace & Loaf. After having been recommended P&L, my wife and I were not disappointed. We had the smaller taster menu which was just right for us, however on a future occasion, we will opt for the larger option. Reason being...excellent food, well balanced flavours and combination of dishes. The staff are excellent, very attentive. We were impressed by the entire team's knowledge, easily answering questions we had. Cocktails were very tasty, we found the same level of attention was delivered with drinks as the food, but of course, the food and service are the real standouts here. Highly recommended, thanks P&L team.
R. R.
Fantastic evening. The best dining experience I've ever had. Chose the smaller evening menu and every course was superb. Halibut, chicken pie topped my list followed by the bread and cultured butter course. Every member of staff encountered was, polite, knowledgeable and attentive. Everybody should spoil themselves and a loved one with a visit. Starting to save up for my next visit 😊
i. b.
This was an experience more than a simple lunch. Spotless service, amazing food with fresh ingredients and perfect textures and combination of flavours. The staff is friendly and not too formal and the atmosphere is lovely. We had the 65£ menu and we don't regret it. Definitely deserves a Michelin star!
G. H.
My first experience of fine dining and it was excellent
Food was first class we sampled the B tasting menu accompanied with wine tasting and the wine was superb!
The staff were excellent with their knowledge of the food and the characteristics of how the wine paired with dish was chosen. Altogether it was an excellent evening. Definitely will go back
A. B.
Do yourself a favor and visit this lovely restaurant. The chef truly cares about your experience. The food is absolutely amazing – everything we tasted on the taster menu melted in our mouths. And the waiting staff were very knowledgeable and attentive. Highly recommend we will certainly be going back for more!
M. T.
Exceptionally high quality food, amazing array of flavours across the tasting menu! Service was quick, friendly and very professional. Great selection of local beers and the NE2 Martini was delicious. Only loses a star as I unfortunately found a hair in one of my courses. Overall I Highly recommend Peace and Loaf for anyone wanting to experience high quality dining in Newcastle
P. P.
Took my family to Peace and Loaf this evening to celebrate my father's 70th birthday. We had the taster menu for four, and we weren't disappointed. The food tasted amazing, especially the muscles with garlic and the lamb dish. Can't wait to go back again. Very impressed by both the food and the service (staff were excellent) 10/10
G. W.
Booked on a Saturday for myself and my daughter. We ordered the 8 course vegetarian tasting menu - each course was fabulous, beautifully presented and cooked,using the finest locally sourced ingredients. Staff were so lovely - one of the best meals we'd eaten in a long while. Highly recommended.
R. K.
We tried the 12 course taster menu. Slightly disappointed no lager on draft despite the menus indicating there was. All savoury course were fantastic. Taste and presentation was phenomenal. The desserts sadly were a little underwhelming in comparison and sadly as these were our final 3 course did feel like we left the restaurant on a slight lower ebb
L. O.
Delicious tasting menu, food and service both excellent and one of the few places where the vegetarian dining experience was equally fabulous.
J. C.
Had a great taster meal here, loved the menu and the service was the best I've experienced anywhere. Some dishes could have done with tiny tweaks but overall a fantastic restaurant that I'll definitely visit again
C. G.
Amazing food, what a night, the perfect way to spend New Year's Eve
J. B.
Worth every penny. Would recommend to anyone. I'm partly devastated that the kitchen doesn't sell the sorbet they use on the galangal and rhubarb dish. It would be amazing if the chef had a blog or something on how he made it. I'd happy pay for tubs of that stuff!
R. F.
10 course taster menu was superb and very filling. Breakfast and dinner definitely not required! Food was all extremely tasty and the courses complimented each other very well. Vegetarian in party also received a great vegetarian version version of the same menu with excellent vegetarian substitutions (some of which were superior in my opinion).
The restaurant itself has wonderful staff who are both knowledgeable, courteous and professional. Decor is stylish and music pipes tastefully over head to support the friendly and intimate atmosphere despite each table being populated.
Toilets are clean and tastefully decorated.
Definitely one for special occasions.
t. c.
Great food and great atmosphere at P&L. We enjoyed most of the 13 courses over the four hours including the excellent wine pairing. Acoustics of the room made for a noisy evening at times making it difficult to hear the across the table and descriptions of the food
W. H.
If you love beautiful food, beautifully presented then you'll love this place. Should definitely hold a Michelin Star. Great flavour combinations, perfectly balanced. Worth a visit for a very special occasion. Highly recommend.
V. D.
We have had a lovely afternoon. Thank you to the wonderful team who have worked very hard in their masks and gloves...
This was our first "out out" day since lockdown, it was wonderful and worth the wait. Food and Service was excellent. We chose tasting menu B and enjoyed all the paired wines too. Absolutely delicious experience!
R. C.
Very nice food and friendly staff.
Only criticism are the round tables are too big, so you can't chat easily to the person opposite, and this isn't helped by a sound system that isn't clear at the volume the music is played, so it becomes interfering back ground noise.
We did enjoy ourselves that said.
k. p.
Amazing place to eat. Very relaxed atmosphere, friendly staff and wonderful 8 course taster meal. Not cheap at £65 per person for lunch but definitely worth it.
R. W.
We had the C menu here and the food was fantastic and the wine pairings were well thought out and interesting. The staff all had masks, the seating area was laid out with social distance in mind. I felt safe and really enjoyed my evening
R. S.
Amazing vegetarian tasting menu, absolutely glorious. Excellent service, especially for myself as a coeliac, the dishes were individually catered for my needs without losing much of the magic. I'd definitely recommend saving your pennies and going all-out here, makes fine dining feel welcoming for all and it was a great experience.
Z. T.
Couldnt find fault with the experience that Peace & Loaf had to offer. We had the 10 course tasting menu which turned in to 11 courses due to an extra surprise course.
The food and atmosphere were exquisite and we left very satisfied. Top marks.
T. B.
Best restaurant in Newcastle!! How this place doesn't have a Michelin Star is beyond me. Great innovative dishes with flavours that are incredible. Very relaxed atmosphere, lovely friendly staff. Definitely worth requesting the tasting menu, give them a call in advance... 14 courses paired with wine. Small courses but incredibly filling by the end. Tremendous!! Great meal out... as always!
K. G.
Cannot praise P&L highly enough . Everything is excellent, food is amazing, the fixed prix lunch menu is a steal at £25.00 a head. We added the desert assiette so had 4 deserts to share, they were truly delicious. Staff are lovely, very attentive without being obtrusive and the place has a lovely atmosphere. Don't hesitate to go, you'll not be sorry !
D. S.
We love this place, the food is consistently excellent. It's almost as if you could order absolutely any dish on the menu and feel like you made the best choice. Perfect for a special occasion although once you've been once you'll almost certainly be back again. The staff are very friendly and professional with good knowledge of the menu and ingredients.
K. S.
Had the festive 5 course set menu, chose a starter main and pud and had two other taster courses brought out before starters and after. Everything was delicious and well presented. Great value at £28 p/p.
J. S.
A beautiful menu with surprising combinations. My favourite was the grilled octopus with smoked eel peanut butter and beetroot jelly (not pictured because I ate it quickly). The ten course tasting menu was too much food for me, but I'd get it again anyway. The wine pairings were sublime.
C. B.
One of the best dining experiences I've been to in a while. Food was delicious and service was truly superb. Although prices are on the expensive side, there are surprise appetizers between courses so you will leave well and truly stuffed. I highly recommend Peace & Loaf
J. L.
Incredible! From the attention to detail to the staggeringly impressive food, this is a treat and a must visit. Careful thought is apparent in every course, everything was cooked to perfection and complimented everything else wonderfully. This is truly where the science of cooking meets it's art.
C. S.
Beautiful food, fab restaurant and excellent service. Festive set menu 2018 review.
Restaurant is cosy, stylish and unique in its layout. Far bigger inside than expected.
Festive set menu was a beautiful 3 course set menu with a choice of 3 options for starter main and dessert. Interlaced with ‘bread and snack’ and a ‘surprise’!
My chosen three
Ham hock
Goose
Christmas spring roll
Bread and snacks
Lovely start here warm bread with I’m sure our waitress said beef fat whip but I might have miss heard as I was eyeballing the presentation. (It was gorgeous anyway)
Tempura sprouts (not a spout fan, loved them!)
Crispy chicken skin was tasty and the black pudding macaroons where sweeter than I anticipated but good.
Ham hock was a lovely fresh starter
Colourful, fresh and tasty
The surprise!
I don’t won’t to spoil this but good god I could eat that again and again!
Well done chef that was beautiful
The Goose
Lovely bit of goose seared and full of flavour Accompanied by a Morteau sausage and root veg. Would have liked a little more stuffing but that because I love it.
We added the goose fat roasties which where lovely the lamb fat clapshot which I need to learn how to make it was gorgeous ( I’m guessing swede and carrot mash with a good amount of mint and a lamb jus) and the cabbage and bacon which was good.
Pretty stuffed at this point.
Christmas spring roll
Yep that’s Christmas in a spring roll. Divine! Like a mince pie really with a crispy shell rolled in cinnamon and sugar served with a brandy ice cream. To die for!
All along the staff where friendly, pleasant and attentive.
Service was smooth and paced well.
Beautifully presented and tasty food.
Atmosphere cosy and relaxed.
I look forward to returning.
S. G.
Went here for a set lunch and we were astonished at how good the food was. Incredible value for money, The 3 courses were supplemented by amazing tasters of squid crackers, fish cakes, hash brown and bao buns. Can't rate this highly enough. Superb!!!
K. B.
Fantastic food and service... Tasting menu really pushes the boundaries and is full of flavour and surprises.
S. H.
Myself and my daughter (vegetarian) had the mid range tasting menu here. Absolutely amazing experience, food, staff, ambiance and wine all perfect! The wine pairing was really good value, quite good portions for every course! Highly recommend this place
M. M.
Amazing food. Lovely atmosphere and excellent selection. Probably my favourite place ever!
M. D.
Unpretentious but world class restaurant. The tasting menu concept is brilliant. The food was outstanding. Each course focus’s specifically around the taste of the dish, mixing flavours to deliver an outstanding meal. Despite the relatively small portion size of each course, the entire meal is very filling. I would also complement the staff who are informative, engaging, attentive and just seem delighted to have you in their restaurant. Highly recommend.
A. F.
Every single plate on their tasting menu was carefully prepared and packed with balanced flavours.
Staff friendly and professional.
Wine pairing recommended
You are always in for a great experience with Peace and Loaf!
D. B.
Very fancy place, with prices to match, food quality outstanding however, comfortable however was tight and I ended up sitting near the kitchen hatch hence the lost 🌟 the heat as you can expect was shall we say noticeable. Not much choice for kids, get a baby sitter, and treat the other half! I also paid a hefty deposit which was almost forgotten to be subtracted from the bill. Other than that very nice!
R. P.
Super service!
P. A.
Wow, food was absolutely fantastic, the service was brilliant as well. Overall an excellent afternoon out. Thank you.
R. G.
Came here for my birthday and the food was incredible. Never had food like it, and I’ll definitely go back
A. R.
Great staff. Lovely setup. Spectacular tasting menu. Cocktails are delicious
P. S.
My family and I were celebrating my baby brother's graduation from medical school. Great food, great drinks, great ambience and a great host (sorry didn't catch his name) for a special occasion! If we ever find ourselves in Newcastle again we will definitely be coming back!
R. S.
The tasting menu here is astonishing for it's imaginative construction as well as its tastebud-seducing multifaceted array of flavours for both committed carnivores and vegetarians. The atmosphere is relaxed and the staff fantastically friendly, professional, personable and knowledgeable. The whole experience is one to savour and is extremely good value.
j. b.
Hubby brought me here for my birthday on Tuesday and we had the £80 ten course tasting menu which was wonderful. Only one course jarred- afraid I didn't like lamb with kipper- but the rest were sublime. Particularly enjoyed the raw scallop with pear starter and the pineapple pan perdu sweet. Wine was reasonably priced and my Tom Coulson Collins cocktail (named after chef's son) was lovely. Also discovered a new drink- chambord, a raspberry liqueur which went very well with sweets- yes that's sweets plural! Set over 3 floors it's not huge possibly 50 covers so cosy atmosphere with really tall ceilings so bright and airy. Staff all knowledgeable and friendly. The chunky chips with parmesan and steak we noticed on another table were HUGE and I don't know how the couple managed to eat them all but they did so might try them next time 😜
P. M.
It can't be easy to be known as one of the absolute best restaurants in town, but despite high expectations the food, service and cocktails were all absolutely superb. My wife & I love to cook, but are a bit restaurant shy since often the food is just a bit mediocre - not so at Peace & Loaf. We ordered three courses (via the Prix Fixé menu), each of which was exceptional, and interspersed by several amuse-bouches - a total delight.
The staff were the right mix of friendly/attentive and also discreet - just what we wanted for a romantic night out. High-end dining is a totally different food experience - every flavour was so rich that in a way you don't get full like you do when your meal comes with a big plate of rice or potatoes (though I presume you could order these too - we didn't), but we both agreed that at the end of dinner we were thoroughly satisfied, so the tiny portions of each of so many things were just right.
We had cocktails and then tap water (no wine), plus one side, and total including tip came to just under £100 - with the Prix Fixé menu (available before 7pm), it wasn't even particularly expensive for something truly exceptional. Bravo, Peace & Loaf - you totally lived up to your stellar reputation :o)
A. J.
Each course of this tasting menu a culinary surprise. Though on our second experience I would have liked a little more protein that is meat or fish. But looking forward to our next visit
E. M.
Had the smaller tasting menu last night and it was phenomenal! The flavours were fantastic and it is a brilliant experience if you love food. The staff were very knowledgeable and helpful and it was a night to remember. Highly recommend it !
L. S.
Lovely food. staff really friendly and helpful
H. T.
Excellent venue, the staff were attentive yet not in your face and the food was amazing! I highly recommend a visit to this little gem.
P. S.
Amazing evening. Great food and wine expertly guided by Angela. Thank you all
H. W.
Absolutely fantastic meal! Every course was delicious. Excellent staff who answered questions about the menu in detail and entertained us whilst we waited for the table at the bar. Can’t fault the service or the food!
b. W.
Absolutely amazing. Do not hesitate thinking about coming to this place. Never tasted food like it!. The only way I can describe it is like when the those kids went to "willy wonkas chocolate factory" but with food!!
m. s.
What a place just brilliant, the meals were 1st.class and the service outstanding, what more can I say
D. P.
Absolutely Delicious….what more is there to say?
M. L.
First time dining at the Peace & Loaf.Not a very enjoyable experience for me apart from the excellent table service given by all of the staff. I found the seating very cramped at the tables on ground level. The food itself I didn't find all that enjoyable served in small taster type portions and not very appetising from a flavour point of view.I can't fault the floor service as they were all very obliging attentative and pleasant.
B. P.
Amazing food, such a great experience.
C. S.
Gorgeous food, great atmosphere!
R. D.
Amazing high end Michelin type food. Best I have had
D. W.
Only one word to describe this place - PHENOMENAL ! Food and art in perfect sync. Loved it.
A. R.
Great food. Brilliant service.
K. C.
Amazing! The service here is really wonderful. We took our 10 month old and they were so welcoming and friendly. The food is incredible, the flavours are like nothing I’ve had before. This was our second visit and we can’t wait to come back. Thank you!
M. M.
Excellent front of house team and food. Easily our favourite place in Newcastle (having tried lots of places!)
Staff really go above and beyond to ensure a positive experience - including helping us manage a very bored toddler! Can’t recommend enough.
T. K.
Our meal was exceptional, the canapés to start were delicious and so were the rolls. We had the soft shell crab and the sweetbreads as starters, which were fantastic. The drink selection and pricing were both good. The star of the show was the main course - we shared the beef for two. It was the best cut of meat I’ve ever had, I can’t underestimate how good it was. The flavor was amazing and the consistency was spectacular. Absolutely recommend and can’t wait to go again!
B. O.
Such a lovely evening. Food was amazing, wine pairing inspired. Staff were so lovely and knowledgable. Chef fantastic and chatted to us. Looking forward to coming back soon. Deserves a Michelin star ⭐️
S. F.
Tables are very close to one another. Food was very confused. Mixed flavours with game & venison. My dish of pork had slices of nectarine & lobster, which didn’t suit my palate, believe me, I eat almost anything.The shared dessert was great. Hands down this is my favourite restaurant in Newcastle. The service, quality of food and atmosphere is of the highest standard.
E. B.
What an experience! The food served was beautifully presented and tasted divine. One of our party was cantankerous at the start but the staff dealt with the situation in an extremely friendly manner and did not let our grump ruin the experience. I am looking forward to going again.
B. B.
The tasting menu with matched wine was everything we wanted. Amazing and interesting food that really made you think. The wines were delicious and went so well with the innovative food. Definitely recommend. The staff were great and the overall experience was one to remember.
A. S.
Recently moved to Newcastle, recommended to me by a friend who lives in Jesmond. Wow! The food was absolutely incredible. Personal favourites were the black pudding macaroons and the mackerel elderflower dish, sensational, as was the service. I've eaten at Michelin star restaurants all over the world, I would not be surprised if peace & loaf earn there's in the next year or so. My only negative is that the décor does not reflect the food.
K. B.
Had an amazing time at Peace and Loaf for our anniversary. The lunch menu is brilliant value - I would recommend having some sides with the main. The service was excellent and the highlight was the surprise snacks between courses!
I’ll be planning to come back for the taster menu at some point for sure.
C. J.
Our first visit to peace and loaf. We had the fixed price christmas menu, a fabulous 5 course meal costing only £28, fantastic value. Every single element of our meal was delicious and beautifully presented. Staff took time to explain each dish. Looking forward to our next visit.
M. A.
Tables are very close to one another. Food was very confused. Mixed flavours with game & venison. My dish of pork had slices of nectarine & lobster, which didn’t suit my palate, believe me, I eat almost anything.
The shared dessert was great.
The disabled loo was full of staff belongings & 2 high chairs, I often use a wheelchair & i wouldn’t have been unable to use it in my chair. Our meal was spoilt by a very loud diner on the next table.
We ended up listening to their choices & opinions on their tasting menu & staff politely serving them.
Sadly we’d we won’t go back to peace & loaf.
Overrated “fine dining”
G. R.
Festive tasting menu was absolutely amazing, especially the clam chowder😋
R. O.
Stunning menu, gorgeous food, a treat for the palate and the eye.
One of our party us lactose intolerant and we had let them know and they had prepared a menu for them with thoughtful, delicious alternatives.
Wonderful service, discreet, attentive and fun.
J. S.
Absolutely amazing. Me and my partner came here for the first time and it definitely won't be the last!! All food courses were cooked to perfection and tasted amazing. Only downside was that it is very expensive.
P. C.
Lovely lunch, good value for the quality and presentation of the food, service was excellent, look forward to the next trip there!
C. B.
This is without a doubt, the best restaurant in the whole of the North East! We chose to celebrate our 10-year anniversary here - from start to finish, the service, food and ambience were absolutely peerless.
On top of the main dishes, which were all incredibly delicious, the little extras like the bread and beef dripping butter or the cheese eclair with sweet chilli jam, are unbelievable and just take your experience to the next level! The only downside to our experience was that we missed out on dessert this time, as we got carried away ordering mac & cheese as a side dish 🙈 already salivating in anticipation of our next visit!
D. H.
Had a wonderful meal here with my wife trying the 10 course taster menu. Food was fabulous, drinks pairing was really good if you take that option. Very thoughtful combinations that I would never have thought of in a million years, but really enhanced the whole experience (note: quite a lot of booze involved so dont go to the pub beforehand like I did or you may enhance the experience a bit too much and regret it the following morning!)
T. E.
We were here about a year ago and the meal we had has been on my mind since. We are moving away from Newcastle and we’re offered babysitting for one final meal out together. I had no hesitation in booking Peace and Loaf again as a farewell to Newcastle. We were not disappointed. Special mention to the member of staff who took the time to describe what each item on our plates was. Each course was delicious and the treats between courses were also lovely extras.
R. H.
Love this place. The food is incredible everytime, the service is brilliant. The staff are so friendly and efficient. Will be back again next year for our anniversary
A. T.
Absolutely awesome
My wife booked a table for our wedding anniversary. We had the taster menu with accompanying wine. I do not have the words to express how good the evening was. The waiting staff and sommeliers knowledge of the plates and wines was unsurpassed
Going forward, food will not be the same.
This sounds excessive. But, give Peace and Loaf a try.. you will see what I mean
J. W.
Hands down this is my favourite restaurant in Newcastle. The service, quality of food and atmosphere is of the highest standard.
I would caution you though that after eating here it can put a dampener on other restaurants in Newcastle, for example when I recently went to House of Tides, I almost felt annoyed that I had paid more than double that I would have at Peace and Loaf but I did not receive a significantly higher standard of food and service. I actually left with a slight amount of regret that I could have gone to peace and loaf for lunch aswell as dinner and still had money left over.
I would recommend to book between 5pm and 7pm where you will be able to get 3 courses for £30, which is incredibly good for the quality of food. You will not find better food for that price anywhere else in Newcastle.
S. C.
Fantastic food served by excellent friendly staff. Me & my wife celebrated my 63rd birthday here thanks to my son & his wife. I have to say what a fab gift. We will all return together in the near future to sample this wonderful food once again. Thank you to all at Peace & Loaf.
S. H.
An excellent treat for our family birthday meal. We went for Saturday lunch and enjoyed the fixed price lunch menu which was an absolute bargain. Delicious canapés and homemade bread with dripping to start the experience, then a split across the table between raw beef pie (delicious) and smoked haddock (divine) starters. All 5 of us had lamb main with several of the side dishes (lamb clapshot was a revelation) and we were not disappointed - 5 clean plates! Lovely puddings and a birthday chocolate treat to finish. Staff friendly and attentive without interrupting. A delightful experience and fabulous food, couldn't ask for more. We'll definitely be returning.
s. H.
Simply wonderful! Fantastic service and delicious food.
H. H.
Kitchen Wizards! had a four hour lunch 19 course! Wonderful experience highly recommend to all!
J. C.
Visited on Sunday for lunch with the Mrs & two kids. Great food, outstanding actually. Waiting time a little slow with kids but understandable. Would recommend at a slightly quieter time and will return.
H. S.
Loved the menu, very well put together and a gorgeous array of dishes. Incredible breads and amuse bouches too - very generous. The staff we attentive and friendly. Only criticism would be my savoy cabbage dish was a tad oily (although apart from that truly delicious) and the music was too cheesey/loud. A quieter more contemporary playlist would do wonders to the atmosphere, really! Overall very nice and well worth a visit.
M. L.
Great place to eat. The staff are really friendly and the food was excellent.
h. b.
I love this place! Great for a date night or family celebration. Food reliably tasty and locally sourced where possible. Stylish interior and well-informed staff
c. w. d. h.
such a lovely place. great atmosphere. the food is epic and the service is great as the front of house understand what's on the plate so they can relay what the chefs have created.
M. F. B.
Delicious meal in convivial atmosphere. Service excellent as always. We ordered the house wine which was a good dry Italian white from Puglia and very affordable. The prix fixe menu had a superb selection of choices but I chose the pidgeon from the blackboard which was beautifully cooked. All in all highly recommended.
P. C.
Wow! Another great meal here. The staff are great and the food I believe to be the most exciting and well presented in the area. Each course sends your taste buds on a safari. Can't wait till we go back!
A. M.
Superb. Unfussy and unpretentious, its got a relaxed atmosphere but the food is complex, sophisticated and very tasty. A touch of Masterchef magic in Jesmond with all the micro-herbs, soils, crumbs, and dehydrated wotnot. We went with our kids and argued about which dish was the best. I always like to think I'm right but on this occasion it was too close to call. One of the best meals out I've had in years.
J. P.
Absolutely fabulous food and service as always - two visits now since lockdown - wonderful tasting menu!! Can’t fault a single thing!! Thank you Dave, Linden, Luke and staff for a wonderful birthday lunch today x
C. W.
Their pie meal deal on the weekends is unreal! Has made my lockdown. Want something better (by light years) and cheaper than a take away? Look no further. Thanks so much Peace and Loaf and I hope you have capacity to keep this going when you open back up!
T.
We had a fantastic meal here. The service was exceptional and the food was a work of art. It was very good value for money also on the set menu. Much appreciated. Thanks for having us!!
H. D.
Superbly creative. Cleverly created modern cuisine, that lets the flavours and ingredients do the talking, and using a fabulous array of ingredients both foraged and locally grown. Lovely friendly service team too
A. B.
Perfect evening at at Peace and loaf. From the complimentary champagne to the most amazing Christmas spring roll pudding. Dave coulson was on service, which made the evening even more special. The trout main was divine. We can not recommend highly enough.
R. L.
Had the tasting menu, it was a great evening of wonderful food and matching wines. The serving staff had an excellent knowledge of the dishes and accompanying wines. Looking at the photos makes me want to go back.
M. B.
A rather average experience given the cost. I ate lunch off the set menu and there was contradiction in flavours with each course. The service and decor are reasonable but for me it was once bitten twice shy; I won't be returning.
J. P.
A very attentive team of staff. Food was delicious and wine pairing with meal devine 🙂
A. E.
Another FABULOUS meal! We chose from the fixed Xmas dinner menu and it was a taste fest. Beautifully presented and the small inbetween
courses were varied and delicious. Have never been disappounted in a meal at this superb restaurant. AME
j. M.
I visited on Thursday night with my mum, the staff were lovely and very attentive but not overbearing, they were spot on and very pleasant. The food was amazing and the surroundings delightful. Highly recommend!
C. C.
Just love everything about this place!!! The food is innovative, tasty dishes using quality local ingredients, presented supurbly but with no pretentiousness.... And the staff front of house have to be the friendliest most welcoming staff ever!!! They are all a credit to our area and what geordies are all about!
M. E.
Because of Tier 3 restrictions they are doing a take away services of gourmet pies that are delicious. If you like pies then you must try one - it will probably be more than one after you have had the first one!
J. S.
Had an excellent lunch there, staff very friendly and helpful. Some very interesting dishes not the run of the mill dishes. Would like to go back and try an evening meal there.
S. Y.
Absolutely fantastic food, and lovely attentive waiters. This was definitely a step up from a normal date night.
We had the chicken katsu fusion to share for starters, and then had the steak and oyster for mains each. Wanted dessert but ended up having an amaretto to finish. Stunning food from beginning to the end.
Chefs compliments of canapés in between meals was amazing! Definitely broadened our food palate horizons.
My bf and I were very happy especially this was my birthday dinner. He did requested for a slice of birthday cake but they probably didn't have one so we didn't have one! 🤔 Nonetheless it was still lovely and we will be back for more 💕

There is no doubting the skill and expertise of the kitchen but The Tasting Menu is just a step too far. The cacophony of flavours is just overpowering, in isolation superb, but together a mix too far. Keep it simple and you will love the food.

Well worth a visit, especially for a special occasion, we had the 10 course taster menu with wine. Thoroughly enjoyed it, a great variety of locally sourced ingredients complimented by some excellent wines.

Tiny portions. Very accommodating and polite. Great knowledge of food when being served. Little tasters between meals. Just small main meal portion. Otherwise lovely welcoming atmosphere.
L. C.

I came here not so long ago with my family and it was the best food i’v ever eaten! Everyone was so friendly and the staff looked after us so well, they made sure we had everything we needed and asked for. I can’t wait to go back as I would tell all my friends and other members of family to go. Definitely worth 5 stars ❤️

My brother and I visited on 12th December 2018. He came down from Edinburgh whilst I came from Knaresborough. Mostly we were blown away by our experience. Starters and the assiette dessert were stunning as were the little tasters in between courses. We both had the goose Christmas dinner for main. This was at best average. The goose was tasteless, the roasted vegetables were soft with little character or taste and the goose fat roast potatoes were poor in the extreme. Add the fact that the whole dish was served on a cold plate then what you are left with was a write off. Staff were brilliant and overall, despite the main course we had a good experience.

Best food I've ever tasted. Fair enough it's a bit pricey, but I've never tried anything like this. Definitely worth a visit. 5 stars isn't enough
