House of Tides - Newcastle upon Tyne

Quite simply perfect, great food , amazing Sommelier Matthew . Really welcoming and attentive staff. I can’t recommend more highly. Highlights…the eel, lamb, fig bread and goldschatz from the wine flight. I was a lone diner on a work trip and came out having had a great experience. And ordered a bottle of one of the wines after the meal as every drink complemented every mouthful of great food. Lovely place.

Another fantastic visit to House of Tides, first time for my partner and he was certainly impressed. Great that the menu changes every month. All the courses were exceptional and such a nice environment to dine in. Staff are great and make it a nice relaxed atmosphere. Highly recommend

Dinner House of Tides, Quayside, Newcastle Celebrating 10 years and still going strong. A multi award winning restaurant on the banks of the Tyne,in a Grade I listed 17th century merchant house. Looks can be deceiving as when we looked through the window earlier while passing,it looked empty. We didn't realise that was the bar and the restaurant was upstairs. It was a good job we booked as it was full to capacity. The ground floor is like an old pub where you can have a pre-dinner drink.The dining room is on the first floor, with a view out over the river. The menu is a simple choice. Well, it's a set five course tasting menu £98. Having said that, they have changed it slightly as there's also a seven-course from February £130. Snacks were a Jeruselum Artichoke Dashi Custard and a mouth-watering Croissant,black garlic,winter truffle. Sourdough Bread with whipped toasted sunflower seed butter. Salt Baked BBQ Swede Goats cheese mousse,hazelnut,kale Whitby Crab,butternut squash,coriander, curry spiced granola. Salt Aged Beef Tartare with Lincolnshire poacher. Served with a Beef Fat Brioche on the side. Hen of the Woods,smoked pan-roasted, truffled potato puree, hazelnuts chive. Star of the show,Main course Rare breed pork,belly loin,bok choy,onion black garlic. Desserts. Yorkshire Rhubarb Dark chocolate orange crémeux,coffee praline. These were extra dishes from the new menu. The kitchen technique is good, and the service was charming, attentive yet relaxed, and friendly. Strong Michelin star cooking and reasonable value.

Food was great but the service has definitely dropped. Went for the food and wine pairing and it was rushed, staff even getting it wrong.

Building is superb and near the old Cooperage. Original Brick and wood and appropriate non fussy tables and chairs give a relaxing feel Atmosphere is just right and the lighting also perfect The service is faultless and the food is incredible. Taster menu was a journey of culinary delight with a lot of artistry involved Great wines and lovely staff
