Beat n Track Cafe in Gateshead - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

propa cafe breakfast was grease free lovely staff. Latte was lovely dog friendly I'd recommend this place for hikers cyclesist ect

Visited following completing a parkrun at Chopwell Woods. The cafe is just as you come out of the Main track to the woods and the nearest cafe to parkrun. Cash only at venue. The owner is very friendly and very accommodating. Scones are freshly baked by owner. We visited at 11am so it was the breakfast menu - we had bacon and egg buns and 2 hot drinks, £18 which is about the standard price these days. All was very nice and bonus points for Heinz tomato sauce. Tea served from a small pot so you get 2 cupfuls. Small selection of cakes on offer also. The place itself is rather quirky - music memorabilia and a lovely old fashioned juke box which is free to use. Toilet facilities great. Great visit would recommend to all - especially park runners do pop in and support the cafe.

Musically themed cafe, with a working jukebox! Incredibly friendly staff! Recommended for anyone after a coffee and a snack after visiting Chopwell Woods.

an amazing place, great atmosphere and vibe. lovely food and friendly service. highly recommend 👍😊

Lovely little micro pub/cafe. We popped in a for a drink when walking. Take cash!

Very friendly welcome and service. Dogs always welcome. Would go again.

Lovely friendly staff. Nice coffee and tasty cake. They have a card machine but prefer you to pay in cash. Nice place yo visit after a walk in Chopwell Woods.

We visited Beat 'n' track cafe on a Sunday afternoon after a stroll through Chopwell forest. It's an ideal place for a stop off mid walk. We found a seat promptly and were served shortly after. We ordered: 2 x Flat Whites (Cows Milk) 1 x Cheese Scone 1 x Lemon Cheesecake 1 x Red Velvet Cake Total: £16.40(ish). The flat whites were great, good temperature with a strong coffee flavour, not overly milky. The cheese scone was not the best I have ever had. While it tasted nice, it was let down by its texture, with a slightly powdery exterior. The lemon cheesecake was delicious. It had a full and creamy texture paired well with a zesty lemon curd, that wasn't too tart. The red velvet cake was light and bouncy. The interior has a really quirky design, made up of upcycled pieces of old furniture etc. The great thing about this is that there is lots to look at. The toilets were very clean and looked like they had recently been renovated. I'll definitely be back.

Joy awaits, within or without. Walk in the woods, then feel the joy. Great coffee, delicious cheese scone. This time we popped in on the off chance, next time I’ll plan to visit as the people ordering breakfast brought on an attack of food envy. Note: Business is cash only, worth it for the joy.

Super friendly. Great place to take dogs. No high chair though

Food and service absolutely perfect. Inside of the building is like a Tardis, beautiful.

Lovely quirky little cafe with friendly local atmosphere - everyone joined in the ceossword!!

An amazing atmosphere,chilled and relaxed 😁

Just a brilliant place to pop into. Dog friendly too. Wheelchair access on request OK. Note cash only at the venue.

Amazing food, excellent service, very friendly great place.

A brilliant place with lovely staff, plenty of seating and ridiculously dog-friendly to the point of the boys being allowed on the sofa. The food is excellent and they have a licence for a cheeky beer after a long walk/ride in Chopwell Woods. The only negative is that it's cash only.

Lovely wee place and it's licensed 😁

Cracking cafe all the better when there's a little record fair out the back as well....

Our local. Great location. Quirky and cool decor. Nice food and drinks. Good craic all round.

Best chips ever - proper chips not frozen. Wonder staff and great atmosphere - would definitely return when I am next in the area

What a lovely little cafe bar this is. Quirky decoration and I was amazed with the jukebox! Great coffee and cake. Highly recommended and will return

Ordered water and there were small particles of dirt in the bottom of the glass bottle they provided. Unfortunately I only noticed once I'd drank so hopefully I don't get sick. The burger looked like something from a cheap burger van, I can't believe they can charge £7.50 for it. It didn't come with the tortilla chips as it said it would on the menu. Only go here if you'd like to waste money and get ill.

Beautiful little cafe, spotlessly clean and very comfortable! The staff are always happy to see my dogs Boudica and Bruce when we are passing. Highly recommend!!! 5 stars all round !!!

Tis a dog-friendly cafe in the old Co-op building opposite the lane that leads to Chopwell woods. Parking was simple across the road though they may be space directly in front when you visit but probably don't try going round the side or back alley if you have a large car. Inside the decor is effortlessly retro cool, not forced, with a strong musical theme that will please any beatnik, mod or rocker, and comfortable with a mix of tables with chairs and sofas with coffee tables. Combined with the great choice of background music it just works really well. There looks to be a good range of food from breakfasts and sandwiches/paninis to 'dinners', cakes, scones, and more. The liquid offerings include alcoholic as well as soft drinks and hot drinks. I found the two ladies sailing the ship lovely and friendly. I had a cheese and red onion panini, latte and, on a whim, a take-home cheese scone for later. The panini was hot and very tasty, the imported Italian coffee velvety smooth, and later at home the cheese scone was delicious - a proper home cooked delight. Beat n Track is a brilliant indie cafe that deserves to thrive in these tough times for pubs/cafes/restaurants. From their facebook it appears they may do events, DJ, maybe even live music.

After visiting rowlands gill from Teesside today we looked for a pet friendly cafe, we couldn’t of found a better one if we tried. All the staff were so friendly, very comfortable and pleasant atmosphere and the food was really nice. The cafe is quirky and decor is brilliant. If you’re out and about with your pets, this place is a must.

Unexpectedly interesting liscenced cafe, decorated with 60s music and cycling memorabilia. Free juke box and promising menus

Wonderful tasty food, wonderful people who work there. They adored Georgie today and she did enjoy her sausage as much as her mum and dad enjoyed their food. The music being played while we were eating was smashing. Thank you for making us so welcome.

Great little cafe with amazing cakes and coffee. We found this placeafter a visit to chop well woods and we'll definitely be going back.

Called by here a few days ago, which was a pleasant surprise to find. Had a coffee which was rich flavoursome and hot, and good value. Really wanted to have cake too, but unfortunately what was on display really did not look that appetising and or appealingly and not good value. If they upped the quality and range of the cakes this place really could be something special. However, really enjoyed my coffee and ambiance.

Brilliant loved it good jukebox and decor staff lovely takes you back. Had a good breakfast sarnie and pot of tea xx

What a find, great cafe lovely coffee, and great tunes on a free juke box 👍

Fantastic staff, giving the time to talk and make you feel welcome. the food is excellent, well priced and the decor (and juke box!) are amazing. Everything is clean, attractive and thought out with care and attention to detail :)

Went there for evening meal with family. Lovely eclectic decor , great music on the juke box and excellent food and service. We will definitely be back.

Walked 40 minutes specifically to go to this cafe to be told cash only. Not given any other option or help. Dissapointed. No other cafes or cashppints nearby so complete waste of a journey for us.

Visited premises for a birthday treat. The coffee and cake were nice however the staff were not really friendly or approachable which kind of marred the experience. Hopefully it was a one off based on the other good reviews.

I visited this litttle cafe with my son after a walk in chopwell woods. There were no menus so a bit disorganised - and no idea of prices. 2 paninis, 2 cans coke and a few wedges - £20? Also OK its dog friendly but to see the waitress giving dogs treats and fussing with them between serving was unsettling to say the least!

Great food, great service and fab atmosphere

Lovely little café, nice breakfast and cake

Very pleasant place to be, friendly staff and lovely coffee. ☕

Food was tasty. Music a bit too loud to allow conversation.

Lovely surrounding very pleasant staff and food tasted good.

Lovely place and a lovely beer 👌🤟

Came here after the doing the chopwell Woods parkrun. I came here with my friends and family, between us we had full English breakfast, bacon and sausage sandwiches, tea's and coffees. The the tea's and coffees were nice. I would of liked to have more on the place for the large full English but it was a nice breakfast though and reasonably priced. Good place to come have being at chopwell Woods.

My friend and I visited this lovely cafe, great atmosphere and amazing decor. Loved the Wurlitzer jukebox very quirky. We sat in a window seat and enjoyed coffee and scones which were lovely. Staff were really nice and friendly. We felt so relaxed when we left, could have stayed all day. How did I not know of this cafe!!! We have arranged another visit next week and I am so looking forward to the tapas night. Well done everyone, would highly recommend this cafe.

4 of us rocked up,slightly muddy, no problem, sat outside, table service 😀 Friendly staff, great cakes 👌 Definitely worth a visit if you're in the Chopwell woods area Cash only...for some reason?

Great little cafe however they need to get card payments sorted. I hardly ever carry cash!!!

Absolute superb atmosphere, great food, (well done chef!!) Staff are very attentive, we had a fantastic Sunday lunch which was amazing!! Would definitely recommend, please don't pass this place by, you don't know what your missing !!

We ate here today, first time for me, and what an excellent cafe. Food great, staff lovely and decor and music perfect! I will be back.

Great owner, grateful atmosphere always welcoming especially if you are on your own. All digs very welcome too!!

Very good place and very nice people

Cracking little place which is a handy stop off for walkers and cyclists passing through Chopwell woods and the surrounding area. Chilled environment inside, friendly staff, a nice mixed menu and spot on coffees. They've also got alcohol including Guinness on tap which I think I'll sample next time with savoury food rather than the usual coffee and cake. It's also open till 9pm.

Food was amazing....staff were awesome....what more do u want

Lovely meal very nice people. Quality

Great experience, unique place. Very dog friendly.

Lovely ,helpful service in cool and quirky surroundings .The coffee is nice and frothy and there is a good range of food on offer at reasonable prices! I had the hot pork bap which came with nachos ,salad and dressing and a pot of coleslaw -well presented and very tasty !

Nice place with friendly staff yet to try the food

What a brilliant cafe! Could not have been more welcoming and kind to us. Having finished a walk around the corner we stopped in to see if they had outdoor space for our dog, not only did they open their doors for him, he was treated like royalty! Biscuit on arrival followed by a whole sausage to himself! Lots of cuddles and fuss from everyone and his head in now about 10 sizes bigger!! The human food was substantial and delicious! A smashing place we cannot recommend highly enough! Thank you!

Lovely place and convenient for after a woodland walk. The owners are so sweet and can't do enough for you. Nachos are amazing. Only downside is you can't pay by card.

Great little bistro serving good coffee. Well recommended 👍

Good service, friendly staff and a perfect bacon & sausage sandwich

Came across this cafe by accident whilst exploring Chopwell Woods. What a find! Food and service are excellent. Food all “home made” and freshly cooked and service really friendly (even when we asked about local pubs that do food!!) Had a really pleasant lunch and as they are licensed my husband and father-in-law also enjoyed a pint. Also, would say that they are very doggy friendly if you want to take a fur baby with you. Would certainly recommend ‘The Beat n Track’

Fantastic cafe with smiling friendly service. Best bacon and Egg bun ever!

Popped in for my first pint but found out that they were closing but both the staff said not a problem I'll get a couple of seats outside for you both. So enjoyed my first pint of Guinness sitting in the late afternoon sun. Ill be back

I often stop off on my way to the allotment for the best Bacon and Egg sarnie. Very pleasant staff and good friendly service.

Amazing little cafe.. Great food and lovely people. Top of my list for local eating 5 starz

Very unfriendly cafe and the owner was extremely rude demanding a mask be worn when I am disabled and exempt. Would never go back there again.

Excellent cake and a coffee at the end of a walk

What a lovely little place. Delicious lemon drizzle cake. Will definitely go back

Nice atmosphere, musak perhaps a little bit loud. Nice food and drink, incl beer and wine. Good value and friendly service.

Have regularly visited this cafe where I have the large breakfast which is 2 sausage, 2 bacon, 2 fried eggs, 2 black pudding, 2 slices of toast, mushrooms and small fried potatoes. The small breakfast is one of each. Warm atmosphere, friendly hosts where dogs are welcome. Great coffee with a smooth rich flavour. Saw a 1 star review and very puzzled by it. Did they visit the same place? 1/2 a slice of toast makes no sense. And most people are happy for their teapot to be topped up with hot water. The tapas that's served in the evening is delicious. Am very partial to the various flavours of cheesecake, highly recommended!

Cheesecake a bit small for £3 but at least open Sunday with chairs outside for us cycling nuts

Lovely staff, tasty fresh food, cool decor and reasonably priced. Perfect for a pre or post Chopwell Woods walk

An excellent cup of coffee and large slice of cake. Come evening the cafe transforms into a popular tapas bar. The owners are friendly and the decor interesting. Can recommend.

Great place, lovely character. Very friendly. Definitely be back.

We dropped in after an afternoon walk with our 'fur baby', great surprise that we could take the dog in. We had a lovely coffee and very tasty cake, 'Lily dog' got a biscuit too. We were greatly surprised that they do evening meals of Tapas, which we booked in for and we were allowed to bring Lily too. Returned later in the week for our Tapas, we were not disappointed, the meal was freshly cooked and just perfect, no room for 'afters'. We would recommend you try this place, the deciding fact for us was that we could take our dog in. Though after having the meal, we decided the food has to come first, then the dog!! Good luck to the owners, hope you keep going.

I've been missing out! This is 10 mins walk, from my home and I've, only, just, been in today. Coffee lush, cakes, lush, friendly staff, nice ambience - perfect!

Amazing service and our dog has socialising issues but the staff went out of their way to feed him sausages. Food is great to. Thanks very much and definitely be back 😁

Ask the owner to smile, makesure the bread is toasted, a small breakfast n a large breakfast are supposed to be diff but only diff was half slice of toast n a slice of black budding 2nd pot of tea was same teabag just topped up with hot water will not go back again dont like paying £17 for 2 small pots of tea a large breakfast n small but only actually half slice of bread in difference not toasted not please avoid no paper menus n only cash payments still

First time I've been in and I live in the village called in today with a friend .lovely staff and place very friendly.be bk again many thanks.only thing no John Smith's on draught 😊

We called for a light lunch after a walk in Chopwell wood. (5km in 65 minutes!) Could not be more impressed, the ladies were so helpful and welcoming. Coffee was excellent, and our fish finger sandwiches were very hot and tasty. We will be back!

Cosy, friendly atmosphere, always made welcome

Lovely food very friendly staff,fab music

Very very pleasant. Worth going out of your way.

The people are friendly, the food is good and the coffee is great. My favourite feature is the building - a restored co-op building complete with original tiles and other interesting bits and pieces. And - the cafe is licensed!

Great little licensed cafe. Dogs very welcome, towels to dry muddy paws, water and treats on hand.

Absolutely brilliant place. Lovely atmosphere and food.

The previous cafe on site has been opened up, so there's double the space than before...plus the walls have been stripped back to the tiles giving a cleaner look to the premises. They currently make sandwiches and a selection of pies or quiche and are hopeful of selling hot food soon. There's a popular barrista coffee machine, but we drink tea which they were happy to refill with hot water when asked. A sandwich, two pies, teas and coke with a fruit scone and delicious cheese cake was about £18.50. Well worth a visit and hopefully more to come.

Lovely warm welcome and great food
