    21’s cooking is big on flavour and short on fuss. We’re talking about a style which embraces the seasons and where the ingredients are king. Expect to find stylish, imaginative dishes – which don’t pander to fads or fashion…………and still have room for pudding. Expect a warm welcome, generous hospitality and service that is both friendly and correct.
    A city centre restaurant with a city centre buzz. In the heart of Newcastle's Quayside, 21 has an excitement and warmth all of its own. Smart but not stuffy, sleek but not pretentious, fun but not gimmicky - It's about eating good food in comfortably stylish surroundings.
    Menus include Lunch and Early Evening Fixed Price, Five Course Seasonal and à la Carte.

    (1,095)
    Part wine bar, part restaurant, a city centre venue with a city centre buzz. St. Vincent is an after-work drinks spot, supper-with-friends place and general 'snack-with-a-glass-or-two' hang out with a big-hearted 'everybody welcome' attitude. 
    Inspired by the neighbourhood bars we've found on our travels through France and Italy, we offer interesting wines, charcuterie and crowd pleasing plates full of punchy flavours. We're a place where an hour spins into several without anyone noticing. 
    Open evenings Tuesday to Friday, all day Saturday and close late. 
    Enough said. Come and find out.

    This was my third visit here for an evening business meeting over a meal. Pre-booked a table; reservation was no problem. Requested a quiet table on my reservation and we were given one on arrival. Great food, lovely service. Will use again next time.

    We booked to have a farewell dinner before my daughter moves away - the table was perfect when we arrived with lovely staff explaining the menu options. We had cocktails and mocktails to drink which were all beautifully decorated and a house red wine which was delicious! We had the sharing platter and bread to start and then duck, chicken, mussels, crab and prawns with dauphinoise, ratatouille, green beans, figs and chips. All were absolutely outstanding. We finished off with the desert selection and coffees. I would highly recommend due to the food, wine, staff and atmosphere - faultless!!!
