Intermezzo Cafe

I love everything that is attached to the Tyneside cinema with the exception of Intermezzo sadly! It is extremely narrow which makes for rather uncomfortable seating in my opinion. Often when meeting friends we have sat at the bar which then means as a woman there is nowhere to put your handbag (obviously a massive dilemma haha). The coffee is however pretty decent but when you have the option to indulge in a coffee here or next door in the Tyneside bar café it really is a no brainer in my opinion. When I heard that Tyneside cinema were no longer going to renew their contract on their premises I can’t say that I was particularly heartbroken as I think there are too many better options in Newcastle city centre.

dreadful. staff-​bad attitude all round.
the counter where the calzones and sandwiches were had crumbs/​bits of pizza/​general food gubbins and fingerprints all over. clearly hadnt been wiped for some time. cakes looked a bit sad like they had been out for a while
open bins on the side of the entrance doors.
it was mainly the service that was appaling, i can forgive somewhere that isnt quite up to scratch with coffee or treats, but these people seriously need some public relations lessons. definitely not a welcoming place to sit and have a coffee. :(
