Firstly in the design, as you walk in, it has all the professional sleek and organisation of a large chain coffee shop, but the love is evident in its details. No expense has been sparred, the high quality in the furniture and decorations shines through, from the totem-pole at the entrance, wooden ceiling above the coffee counter to the coffee ring wallpaper in sofa lounge area. It is so simple and tasteful in design.
The coffee menu matches the design, providing a full coffee range like a Starbucks or Costa but with passion and quality at heart, each coffee is Perfect. This cannot be stressed enough. Each Americano has a beautiful golden crema and each latte is a silky, milky delight with either a tulip or fern-leaf pattern on top (a small latte is £2.35, cheaper than a Costa flat-white). A testimony to the expertise and dedication of the staff, who are friendly and attentive.
There is also a small but tasty selection of sandwiches (average £2.90), panini's (£3.95) and a selection of quality tray bakes and cakes.The Yum-Yums are a personal recommendation £1.75.
The atmosphere is relaxed and people are chatting away happily or getting stuck into books or laptops. So if you love the style of large chains coffee shops and great coffee but want to take the "I Buy Newcastle" attitude, I highly recommend Central Bean Coffee House that has branches in Jesmond and Morpeth with a new branch in the new business park coming.
