Welcome to Starks. Situated in the busy Newcastle suburb of Heaton, we use the best ingredients to create simple, delicious dishes bringing you our take on the modern café.

This is a fantastic cafe and restaurant. It's fine dining food but in a local cafe setting. The couple who are front-of-house are friendly and welcoming and always go the extra mile. The two chefs provide an exciting, ever-changing menu using top quality local ingredients.

A real find, as calm as it is welcoming. The veggie-friendly menu, much of which hovers around the £10 mark, stretches from bircher muesli with brûléed pear, pistachio, almond and cherry via eggs with basil, salted ricotta, chili and toasted pine nuts to a breakfast bagel with sausage and black pudding, crispy bacon, mushroom ketchup, tomato and a fried duck egg.
