Café 21 at Fenwick - Newcastle upon Tyne

Newcastle food hero Terry Laybourne is the latest restaurateur to be lured by the possibilities of opening an outlet in a high-end fashion store. In this case, Fenwicks on Northumberland Street is the beneficiary, and the slick first-floor Café 21 offers just the thing if you are looking for a 'mid-morning caffeine kick, comforting lunch, perfect salad or a wicked slice of indulgence with your afternoon tea'. So runs the blurb.

Kick off your day with hot Ricotta pancakes or fresh bananas and honeycomb butter, or enjoy daytime re-fuelling in the shape of Joselito Gran Reserva ham with toasted tomato bread, Vietnamese BBQ chicken salad and triple-chocolate semi-freddo.
