Northern Rye

I’ve followed the Northern Rye on Instagram for many months now. When the opportunity came to go to the North East, we made sure we paid a visit!! It wasn’t easy to find by car and we ended down a different dead end road! But we got out of our car and walked down the walkway by the river and finally made it! There were already a queue of people and we joined the line! It was dog friendly too which was a great plus! Couldn’t wait to get to the front to see the many delights that I have been drooling months for!! We plumped for a cinnamon bun, almond croissant, almond & hazelnut praline cruffin, sesame seed sourdough and 2 coffees! We couldn’t wait to try them and had the cinnamon bun and cruffin straight away, hence no photos!! They were both absolutely delicious! And washed down with hot coffee was a perfect start to the morning! I’ve been to many modern bakeries through my travels and this has to be one of the top bakeries in my list!!We made it home later in the day and tasted the sourdough which was amazing! Great crust and a wonderful toasted seedy flavour! Then this morning, we shared the croissant! It still tasted fresh and full of toasted flaked almonds!! We are definitely coming back again! So wished we lived closer!! Perhaps you could open one in North Yorkshire in the future!!

Lovely to find a local traditional bakery, Situated just a minute walk from the quayside near the canal locks in Ouseburn, everything is freshly baked, plenty of choice of breads, Danish pastries etc also filled baguette and homemade sausage rolls.Chilled drinks and freshly brewed coffee available.Well worth a visit.

This place is incredible, we came here for lunch yesterday and got two very decent sized sandwiches, an almond croissant and two coffees very reasonably priced for what you get! I can see why it has 4.9/5!!!! The bakery has a very rustic homely passionate feel to it which a lot of bakeries unfortunately lack. 100% recommended. If you’re looking for a bakery that feels homemade and made with love then this is the place!

Nice shop, they make loads of different pastries, bread and sandwiches. I had an almond croissant and a coffee, the croissant wasn't really what i was expecting, it felt more like eating a biscuit but i still enjoyed it, the coffee was nice. The sandwich looked unreal, im definitely gonna try one next time.

Read the article about this small bakery shop few days ago and finally got a chance to have a visit just right before the holiday starts. Personally I'm not that into pastries and bread but they surprised me by making me enjoyed every bite. The almond croissant and danish were the best I have had. Fresh, delicious and very reasonably priced. Friendly staff. Wide variety of pastries. Can't reccomend highly enough.

Always have a great selection and always well stocked with cakes, pastries and sandwiches. I've enjoyed everything I've tried here so far, hot chocolates are very nice too.

The only reason I'm not there daily is because I would probably eat myself to death. The best pastries in town, the most amazing cheese and kimchi grilled sandwich. RECOMMEND!!!!! if there is one place you go to in Newcastle it should be this. I still dream of their mushroom, hazelnut and truffle oil danish. And the last time I went there they happened to have the most mind blowing bread pudding the world has ever seen.

The perfect croissant, crispy on the outside and layered on the inside. Sourdough bread is perfect.everything is perfect

Been going around to all the local bakeries trying their sourdough so I was exited to find this little gem.I gave the white sourdough a 7/10, because it was soft, airy, had a crispy exterior, but slightly lacks flavour (not tangy or sweet) and they don’t have a slicing machine so you just get the whole loaf; although that is pretty standard and not everywhere offers it (however that would give it an extra point). Overall though very tasty so not complaining, just comparing.They also offer other breads, pastries, sandwiches, and coffee - once had a lemon curd cruffin and it was divine, absolutely 10/10. Exited to return and try more things.

Delicious l. Great service. Drinks a pastries fresh and tasty.
