Hatch Coffee in Newcastle upon Tyne

What a spot for a coffee, one of the best I've had in a long time, the fruit and seed flapjack was just as good.

Recommended coffee with reasonable price. The owner/staff is helpful with a lovely service. He kept the hygiene well.

Possibly the best long black I've ever had, haven't even finished it and I'm leaving a review.

For the past eight years, this quaint little hatch just at the side of Northumbria University has been serving Melbourne-inspired coffee culture to Newcastle residents. Hatch Coffee has certainly made quite a name for itself, attracting a string of regulars. Mark and Claire, the founders, fell in love with coffee during their travels in Australia and New Zealand. They trained with coffee experts, perfected their skills, and returned to England with the dream of starting their own coffee business. Today, Hatch Coffee operates out of a former parking attendant's cabin, committed to delivering the best products and friendly service. I tried the Mocha and enjoyed every sip of it. Mark evidently takes his barista passion seriously. This quaint little spot, with its rich backstory and commitment to quality, is a gem for coffee lovers. Quaint little spot, serving quality coffee.

this is what you call a proper coffee, not like this szajt from NERO or Costa; not being picked up by google maps when searched for "coffee" though

This fella is operating in the Degobah system. Out of this world coffee. As good as it gets. Visit this place as soon as you get chance. You wont be disappointed.

SO good. You can just take your own cup and they will fill it to that size (unsure of cost difference as my partner paid). Got a chocolate brownie for £3 and it was incredible, so soft and gooey. Would really recommend if you are ever in town.

Best cup of coffee in the City.

The best coffee near Northumbria Uni one of the best in Newcastle overall, reasonably priced also!!

Great local coffee made to perfection every time i've been and served in compostable cups. Brownies and flapjacks etc from Gareth James Chocolatier are something else 🤤 all very reasonably priced. Everything i look for in a coffee shop, all covered in this tiny little hut 👌

Really good coffee for a very reasonable price, the owners are also very friendly. Would definitely recommend checking them out if you like coffee and if you like supporting small local businesses!

We visited it today for the first time and ngl it’s THE BEST COFFEE in town! For the first time I tried REAL chai latte with espresso which didn’t taste like a sugar milk. Great and rich flavor 🔥 Would totally recommend ✨

Had many coffee's around NCL. This is my favorite one.

The best espresso I’ve ever had! Visited this gem on the regular when I was in Newcastle for uni. Will miss it now I'm living away.

great place very friendly and polite staff, found this place when on holiday from scotland and would highly recommend it for a coffee or lunch , good food ,fair prices, and super clean thanks to all staff for your service ,jim/elaine scotland

Great coffee, great snacks at very reasonable price!

Great quality, wonderful take away range from coffees to milkshakes, even porridge. A friendly small business. Why buy from a chain coffee shop when you can go to Hatch?

Among the best places to get coffee in Newcastle.

Great coffee at a lower than expected price

One of, if not the best coffees you can get in Newcastle and certainly the friendliest. 20/04/23 Back here today after a hiatus, still the best coffee and coffee man in Town. Chai Latte with espresso is excellent.

Delicious decaf flat white. Friendly owner.

Great little stop for nice takeaway coffee at good prices. The owner is super friendly as well! Definitely check it out if you’re in the area!

One of the best coffee I have ever had.

The best coffee ever. Highly recommended.

Got a coffee from the Hatch this morning on the whim. Absolutely lush! Great first sip. I'll be back tomorrow.

One of our favourite stops while walking into work. Flat whites are perfect and snacks are amazing. None dairy alternatives available too!

Great little coffee spot - good snacks/porridge/cold drinks to go with delicious coffee and friendly chat. Small but perfectly formed.

Great coffee, great service, great price

The absolute best coffee in Newcastle 👍

Rocky Road & Black Coffee. It's the solution to all problems. Well mine anyway.

Amazing service and amazing coffee! hidden gem of coffee in Newcastle, will definitely be popping back again!

Thank goodness Hatch has reopened after the summer recess/lockdown It has always served the best coffee in Newcastle - now, because it is a kiosk in the open air you minimise your chance of picking up a virus along with your cappuccino!

I must say, Hatch Coffee has flown under the radar for quite a long time, and having visited this place several times, this is easily the best seller for coffee in Newcastle. My drink is the usual £2.50 Latte, hardly original considering every cafe or coffee shop will serve this drink, but what stands out for Hatch Coffee, is that you will actually enjoy. Coffee, unless you're making your own at home, tends to be a bland experience, done primarily to boost your stamina after a long day at work or during a break, but at Hatch Coffee, the experience is surprisingly pleasing, and easily a winner for future repeat visits.

Best coffee in Newcastle, so much care and attention to detail goes into every cup. Excellent service always.

Incredible! Might be the best coffee in town and I’m a tough judge! Little horse trailer in a car park. Only open 7-2 Monday-Friday Been meaning to go there, Really happy I did. The line should of been an indicator that it was great coffee. I read about them in a coffee guide! The staff member that was working was super friendly and a great person to see in the morning on my way to face the drama of the day! I hope to go way more cause it on my way to work! I saw they had a loyalty stamp card, Into that idea! Who doesn’t like discounts or freebies? The price, Way cheaper than I thought it would be. My drink was like £2.50 when most espresso bars would be like £4 for that same drink. Highly HIGHLY recommended

Great coffee. And now has a selection of ice creams from Northern Bloc.

He changes his coffee supplier approximately every three months so he keeps you engaged with his place. Every term, you get a different taste. He is a successful/ clever businessman/coffeemaker. You can do long chat with him upon coffee.

Friendly service, great coffee! A visit to the Hatch is worth a visit if you enjoy good coffee, will definitely be back!

Best flat white in the toon, hands down.

I stop off here most days. The coffee is simply the best cup of coffee you can get in Newcastle. I recommend it to everyone I know. Always have a great chat too!

Knowledge of the coffeeman. Not only does the hatch man make great refreshing artisan drinks. He's also great at dispensing gerneal life advice. Give him a try.

Excellent choice of coffees and teas

I used to use chains to buy my coffee but no longer. Coffee Hatch is the place to go. Friendly service and great coffee

Amazing coffee and served by a top bloke in Mark. No where better in town! ☕☕

I come to this place every day now before work. The friendly service and great coffee always starts my day off the right way.

What a wonderful little coffee hut. Stopped here for a quick flat white before heading back into the town for round two of Christmas shopping.

I’m reviewing this business in part to out myself as an addict. I come here most days for a coffee and the delicious cranberry crunch. I know I shouldn’t but they’re so darn good

The best Coffee by someone who cares about what they are doing. In this day and aged this is hard to find. I’ve been quite a few times and it’s been perfect every time.

Every visit to Newcastle involves the pleasure of seeing Mark and enjoying the perfect flat white. The sign of a quality coffee is the ability to sample and enjoy the base espresso and Marks knowledge regarding tasting notes and variation is excellent. This delicious coffee combined with local organic dairy makes for an really good coffee. Highly recommend and the variety of drinks and snacks on offer will compliment the start to a busy day or a frosty festive shopping trip. Give it a try. Mark is a lovely chap and is really worth supporting to keep independent businesses thriving.

Tasty brews, environmentally friendly cups and friendly chat from Mark. Can’t beat a trip to the Hatch!

Seriously great coffee served out of a space that you wouldn’t think could do it so well. Often takeaway coffees from places like this can be poor, but this place is exceptional.

What a wonderful little place this coffee shop is. Perfect for getting a cuppa on my way to the shops.

Definitely the best cup of coffee I’ve ever had in Newcastle. It can often be a struggle to find great coffee up here but this one stands out a mile.

It was my second visit to hatch coffee and I was not disappointed. I think it was even better. I had a cup of earl grey that was so lovely. I'm quite particular about my earl grey and it tasted really aromatic. I also had...

The barista was extremely helpful in recommending the perfect drink for for me and he was cute to boot.

This place was the perfect pit stop after a long day Christmas shopping with the girls. Really nice coffee and caramel short cake.

What a cracking little gem this place is. Considering it’s size it manages to fit so much amazing stuff inside. The best coffee I’ve had for ages. Will be back.

I WAS ABSOLUTELY BLOWN AWAY BY THE UNIQUE DESIGN OF THIS PLACE - The barista has designed it all to meet his needs and it really works, he was really knowledgeable and taught me a lot about coffee and really helped me to understand why...

Wow. You might think coffee is just coffee but this place is the bomb. Cool design and awesome flat white. Love it.

I had heard that Hatch Coffee is the place to go for a great coffee in Newcastle, I wasn't in anyway disappointed - great service, great coffee, I was even surprised by their great couscous. Worth a visit.

I’ve been trying all the hot chocolates in Newcastle I can get my hands on and hatch coffees deluxe hot chocolate is by far the nicest. I will definitely be back.

My colleagues and I have been visiting Mark (the Hatch's barista) for our daily caffeine fix since the Hatch opened in 2016 and have no plans to go elsewhere. The coffee is always great, the prices are very reasonable and Mark is always up for...

A perfect flat white served with a smile. Top notch customer service at Hatch. one of if not the best in the city.

I was only in Newcastle for a three day holiday and I randomly stumbled across this bobby dazzler. I ended having my morning fix every day as it was perfectly located next to my hotel (Euro Hostel). Hatch has a superb selection of coffee and...

Was in Newcastle for a quick early morning meeting and I always try to visit independent coffee shops but most of them don’t open early. I parked near Hatch coffee and noticed it was open at 7.30 in the morning so no need to hit...

Best cup of coffee available in Newcastle hands down, cakes are amazing too! Barista really knows his stuff and makes great recommendations from the seasonal menu, really nice guy as well. Highly recommended.

Grabbed a coffee here on my way into town with my partner, we both loved it, far better than the chain I usually go to, I will be back again. Recommend the flat white.

I noticed this beautiful little coffee shop as I was heading back to my car from town. A wonderful guy served me the best takeaway coffee I’ve ever had. This’ll be my new regular coffee stop from now on.

Very friendly service from Mark, coffee was the nicest I've had in Newcastle and gave me the perfect start to my day. Highly recommend making a small detour out of your way for a visit to Hatch!

Best cup of coffee I've had in Newcastle

I can count the places to get a great cup of coffee in Newcastle on one hand, and Hatch Coffee is definitely up there. Amazing almond milk lattes, amongst the best I have had. Mark is very friendly and personable. It's great to see independent...

I read about this place in the indie coffee guide and as I’m trying to get to every shop in the book so I thought I’d better pop by. Great cup of coffee (takeaway only) great chat with the owner. Highly recommended

Mark is one of the nicest guys you'll meet, his coffee and sweet treats are amazing and so fairly priced too!

Best drinks and incredible service. Absolutely love stopping by here whenever I’m in the centre of town.

Delicious coffee and very reasonably priced. Friendly, quick service - would highly recommend.

Definitely one of the best places in Newcastle for coffee, and the sweet treats are fantastic too! Mark really knows what he's doing, and uses lots of local suppliers which is always a bonus.

Delicious coffee and very reasonably priced. Also, great selection of treats (caramel shortbread/brownies) and healthy treats including porridge, bananas, Nakd bars etc. Also, offers alternative milk (e.g. soy, almond etc). Very friendly and quick service - would highly recommend.

Excellent latte, highly recommended, friendly service. Will definitely return! Really easy to find if you turn off Northumberland street where Superdrug is (Saville Row) and keep going, Hatch coffee is straight in front of you across the main road.

The Hatch is my daily source of afternoon coffee and it is always fantastic. Mark knows what he is doing and is always welcoming. The coffee is some of the best in the city and the traybakes lovely.

I’m usually dubious of independent coffee shops as I worry if they’ll stock non dairy options & more sweeter options than sugar or caramel. Was lovely to see a variety of non dairy options but even better was the syrup selection! Would definitely recommend

Really great coffee and excellent service. Having lived in Newcastle for 2 years I can honestly say this is the best spot to grab a coffee and defo make sure you get their brownies!!!!

Always get my coffee from here, it tastes great and they have multiple vegan milk alternatives. Loyalty card scheme as well!

Worst coffee ever. Couldn’t drink it as it tasted foul. Ended up pouring down drain. Very disappointed.

Mark really cares about making consistently great coffee.

Great coffee, friendly banter, cheaper & way nicer than most other mainstream alternatives. No brainier :)

We strolled along to this tiny little pitch on the advice of our friends who work in the Ellison Building opposite and cannot get enough of the coffee! We were not disappointed. Lovely coffee and delicious caramel shortcake. The really friendly guy who spoke to...

Authentic lovingly made coffee very well priced and loads of other home made treats available. Why go anywhere else for your flat white/mocha/espresso/cappuccino fix!?of course there is tea too ;)

Great coffee, brilliant customer service

I'm no expert but even if I can spot a decent coffee and this is it! Lovely selection of goodies to accompany it too. All served by a very nice enterprising young chap. Give it a go - streets ahead if the chains.

I'm afraid to say that even though i visited you at 8:30am instead of making one of the healthy choices such as porridge or fruit i chose to get a chocolate brownie with my cappuccino - i just had to write a review though to...

Great work hatch coffee, lovely little shop that really brightened my day , gave me the warmth I needed in this chilly weather and was made perfectly. Just wanted to say thanks.

Fabulous coffee served by Mark who is an extremely welcoming, friendly guy. Today was my 1st visit and I will definitely go back.

Great coffee from a friendly bloke in a pretty decent location. Also at a reasonable price compared to some high street cafes.

Quality speaks for itself. This is a fantastic place. The coffees great and the mocha's are the best I've had.

I don’t know how the guy does it, the cappuccino is the best in the city, beautiful coffee taste and the milk steamed into a sweet, creamy texture, it’s magic! On the only the only sunny day in June I had an iced coffee just...

Being a visitor to Newcastle we stumbled across Hatch Coffee, with parking right next to it, we jumped out and grabbed ourselves a coffee as we were passing by. The service was quick, efficient and really friendly. As a lover of coffee it was great...

Marvellous coffee and served with the knowledge your supporting local business's, best morning I've had in a long time and everything a coffee shop should be! So glad this place has opened and cant wait to try what else they have on offer.
