Fully licensed from 11am with two outside seating areas, including our community garden – a secret gem of a beer garden and great when heading for a pint in the sunshine - GCT Kitchen is a must visit for food and drinks when out in Gosforth. You can expect a mouth-watering menu bursting with flavour, using the freshest ingredients from the finest local suppliers in the region. At the heart of the dishes is a desire to celebrate good quality produce and create balanced meals that are not only tasty but are good for the body, mind and soul.

​

The new menu features brunch and lunch favourites (if you haven’t our their vegetable fritters, or chicken club then you’ve been missing out!), and now you can tuck in to loaded fries, sharing boards, dirty burgers, delicious chicken shawarma and succulent steak salad; the perfect accompaniment for an evening out or a pre-show treat. 

​

We are passionate about celebrating local produce and suppliers including those right on their doorstep, so expect to be enjoying produce from local butcher’s Charlotte’s Butchery, baked treats from Pink Lane Bakery on Gosforth High Street, and coffee from Newcastle based roastery Pink Lane Coffee.

We have revamped and extended our bar offering too with a new wine list developed alongside wine merchants Majestic Wines plus an increased offering from the regions finest brewers and beyond both on tap and in the fridge. Non-drinkers are also well looked after with an extensive range of low and no alcohol beers and spirits plus.
