Decided to try out Noir while staying in the Royal Hotel.We first went in for a drink then decide to have a look at the menu.The menu had a good choice so we had dinner there.The menu was very good value and wasn't expensive so we were pleasantly surprised when we got our food.We had potato skins for starters which were really tasty served with fresh salad and two dips.My husband had Steak pie with homemade chips and fresh veg which he really enjoyed.I had chicken skewers on a bed of rice served with a satay sauce which was also very tasty.When we paid the bill we received 10% discount which was a nice surprise.We were having a nice chilled out time so we stayed for a few drinks which were reasonably priced and the lady on the bar was very attentive and friendly.Had a great night.Will be back,!

We were extremely impressed with everything, service, presentation, ambiance, food and price. The chicken satay skewers as a main course is one of the best dishes to be tasted in ages. As we were staying at the Royal Hotel, we also got 10% discount, so that was great. This is a restaurant we would happily return to, even without receiving the discount. Even paying full price it is very reasonable and well worth trying, great food, great service, and during the day, great views!

Unfortunately, we were very disappointed with the Sunday lunch we had here last week. We've been before about a year ago where we had a carvery and I've had tapas which I have previously given a raving review about. Before it was all home made and very tasty. This visit was disappointing to say the least. I had a chicken dinner. The chicken tasted awful (I had one mouthful and left the rest). Tasted like a frozen chicken breast from Iceland and the Yorkshire puddings looked like Aunt Bessie's. Small and pale. Nothing was home made. I don't usually write negative reviews but felt a bit ripped off as the picture advertised on Facebook for a Sunday lunch shows something completely different. So misold really. I would not recommend this place. There are plenty of small independent cafes and restaurants around this way that charge less and make a mean Sunday lunch. I will be returning to one of those and not to this one.

My partner and I went here last month with a Groupon voucher. The lady who greeted us was extremely nice and took our order. When the tea came it consisted of huge sandwiches (admittedly very fresh), massive heavy scones and a selection of delicate little cakes. When we had eaten all we could I went to the bar and asked if we could take home what we hadn't eaten. By this time the original lady had obviously gone off shift and a young girl said yes of course we could. She appeared 5 minutes later and threw a small piece of used aluminium foil onto our table and walked away. The one star I have given this review is for the cakes, which are obviously bought in and were delicious.

We held our daughter's wedding reception here on Saturday. I have to congratulate all the staff with special thanks to Michaela. The whole day and evening reception went without a hitch.

The finger buffet food was excellent and everyone commented on how good the was including the chicken curry. I have to add a special thank you to Jack who went above and beyond the call of duty, he is a credit to Noir drinks lounge. He checked in with all night asking when we wanted things done and checking things were ok. I would highly recommend Noir drinks lounge for an event. Thank you.

We had our afternoon wedding reception at Noir and the theme was afternoon tea. Tables were set out lovely in a Tshape and covered in white and pink covers.Sandwiches were tasty and cakes really well made. They let us have the room free and drinks are reasonably priced.Prosecco for the ladies of course.A quick shout out for Ashleigh she never stopped working so hard for us and the management should take note that they have a good employee in her. Overall well worth considering for a wedding venue and it's right on the coast.😊

We were staying at the Royal Hotel which includes Noir as it's bar/dining facility giving a 10% discount to residents. We had the steak and ale pie which was superbly cooked and served with mash and 3 veg. The serving was huge. Staff and surroundings were very good. All meals we saw brought to various tables seemed equally as good. A very good quality and value for money experience which we can recommend.

Noir had been recommended to me by a few people so I needed to check it out for myself. Booking was easily done via Facebook. When we arrived it was a lot bigger than I imagined from the photos. We booked a table for 10 which consisted of a booth settee and chairs around the other side of the table. The staff were attentive and took our drinks order before bringing us the menu. There were plenty of things to choose from - Sunday lunch, Tapas, traditional English dishes to salads and lighter bites. We waited a reasonable amount of time for the food to be served and it was well worth the wait. The Sunday lunch portion was huge and well worth £8.95. It consisted of meat, 4 roast potatoes, 2 Yorkshire puddings, mash, peas, green beans, carrot and cauliflower with lashings of gravy. I didn’t manage to finish mine. Another meal came with chunky chips and they were real homemade chunky chips. We didn’t have any rooms for dessert, unfortunately, but everyone left satisfied. Would definitely return.

I went to Noir for a christening and went to order a drink with my friends. My friend who had the baby is a few months younger than me and I am 20 years old so we are all quite passed the age of 18. Me and most of my friends went to the bar to order drinks, some people were ID’d and some were not. I was ID’d and they told me they didn’t think it was me. I told them my date of birth and she got the manager over who also didn’t believe it was me. I was completely sober so was very polite in telling them all the details on my ID. I was rudely interrupted by the manager and told to ‘stop being sarcy’. I found this extremely rude and everyone around me was in shock. They then asked for my bank card and then after all that they said one of the bartenders knew me so it’s fine. He knew all my friends there so they wasted a lot of my time and were extremely rude. Will not be going back and I would never hold an event there.

This was a last minute booking to take my Man and daughter out for Mothers Day. I knew we would be heading to the coast and most places I tried were either already booked up or didn't take bookings at all, you just have to turn up, which on Mothers Day is risky. So I took the booking at Noir with relief. The few reviews available for their afternoon tea were good, but I was still slightly worried. I definitely didn't need to be. This is the bar /restaurant for the Royal Hotel in Whitley and the room clearly serves as a venue come nightclub as well as a restaurant, so think wooden floors, black velour and diamante furniture and twinkly lights, but all in all quite nice. They were piping in chart type music which didn't quite go with afternoon tea but it wasn't intrusive. They had two mothers day options available, a carvery which looked nice or the afternoon tea. The staff were lovely, but lacking in consistent uniforms which would have given a professional polish. We ordered tea for 2 plus an extra round of sandwiches for my daughter. The staff were very accommodating on this. You can pick your preferred sandwich filling and scone type which was great as my mam is a veggie and I am not. When the food arrived it was lovely. Sandwiches and scones very generous and plenty of little cakes for my daughter (6) to share. Staff happy to provide tea refills. For £10 each for the tea with a free mothers day prosecco thrown in this was a bargain. I will definitely visit again if I am in the area.

The place is modern, pleasant & beautifully clean. The best place we’ve come across in Whitley bay for lunch & drinks. They also offer 5 or 6 tapas dishes which I can highly recommend & they also offer afternoon tea which looked lovely.

Myself and 6 friends came to Noir for a birthday meal on Friday the 6th, and the service was absolutely fantastic. I'd called in rather last minute the day before to ask if they had a table, and the woman who took my details was brilliant and so helpful. I was worried with it being last minute that she wouldn't be able to accommodate for a larger number of people, but she arranged it all and even asked what type of seating we would prefer (I chose a window table.) I also brought along a cake for my friend's birthday and asked if it would be possible for a member of staff to bring it out with candles on after our meal, which she said would be no problem at all.

So noir is on the side of the royal where we stayed last night. We noted that there is a 10% discount in noir for hotel guests, saw good reviews on here and we like tapas with cocktails, sold. Lovely decor and seating etc, some real money has been spent here. We enjoyed our pornstar martinis greatly. Next up was tapas which is now more limited menu wise than the website says, but we greatly enjoyed many tiger prawns and pork belly bites all in just enough (masses and masses) garlic butter, great large portions of fries and the best bit, onion rings, clearly fresh actual onion and lovely light batter!! We then very much enjoyed "the godfather" cocktail. Now, the one bad bit was our bottle of Chilean sauvignon blanc, we didn't end up paying for it thankfully, but it really was awful! Great service here and it was ensured that this wasn't on our bill. Overall, great place, would eat here again.

We went here to get out the rain and glad we did as it was a really lovely little bar. Nice selection of cocktails and wines. Enjoyed a glass of fizz and my friend had a Bloody Mary. The men had beers. Wish we had stayed for food but we were booked elsewhere but other customers food looked excellent. Will be returning. It was a little cold though, but that could be down to being quite a large room.

Food is good and freshly made, we went with a groupon voucher for 2 sharing 6 tapas and I can definitely say that for lunch was more than enough.They have an offer for 3 tapas for 11pounds between 12 to 7pm so also a good offer if not able to get the Groupon voucher. Had a medium glass of house white wine (£4) and a non alcoholic Heineken (£3). Service was fast and polite. Place was empty at the time we went (12pm),did call to book in advance but have been told that for lunch it is not necessary. Wheelchair and buggy accessible. I would recommend fried squid, Lamb with rosemary and butterbeans, Spanish meatballs (tiny bit spicy), belly pork with blue cheese and the patatas bravas.

Food is tasty, fresh and good value. On offer is a good selection. Loved the tapas and wine option, excellent value for money...... very reasonable, wine option a bargain in comparison to other restaurants,/bars nearby. Only drawback....It's popular with the locals who book it for special occasions like birthdays etc so it can be noisy or restricted.

Whilst working in the area we wanted a quick drink before having dinner. We hadn't planned to eat here but after seeing some of the other orders, we decided to take a look at the menu. Whilst most of the standard menu is tapas, the specials are standard menu items. We choose the ribs and wings platter and the seafood risotto-both of which were huge! Good value for money and nice food. No ale though, which is why it lost a point. Nice to have live music too.

Just had a fantastic Sunday lunch made even more so as 3 of us arrived at 5.45pm asking for vegetarian Sunday lunch when roast dinner finished at 6pm! Chef's nightmare? Oh no, the management and staff couldn't have been more accommodating. We were offered a tomato, mushroom & goats cheese bake and then had ALL the vegetables from the carvery buffet - 7 not including roast potatoes and fluffy Yorkshire puds! Accompanied by a rather lovely Italian Merlot. 5* for staff, ambience and food, thank you!

The bar staff/waiting on staff are lovely ....polite helpful...nothing too much trouble and the chef is equally as pleasant with food to die for ... the Tapas 3 dishes with wine offer at £17.95 is such good value ..,the food is tasty and plentiful and with fish chips at £7.95 plus various other regular dishes on offer there is something for everyone all reasonably priced. Wide selection of sweets on offer too. Atmosphere and ambience relaxed would recommend.

We went to Noir on a Saturday afternoon for a Groupon tapas deal, the staff were very welcoming and attentive and it was not too crowded.

I booked a table for my mums birthday last week for afternoon tea. The staff were amazing and they had made the table very nice for us so it was a lovely surprise for my mum.

I have visited this restaurant a few times, and also recommended it to friends as I love the tapas and think it is of a really high quality.

Visited here last week with a voucher I got from groupon with my mam, grandma and great nana. We had afternoon tea and opted for a glass of bubbly each and got a few more pots of tea. The sandwiches were lovely as were the scones and cakes. Very good choice offered. The ambience was lovely and they had some great music playing, it suited us all. Decor is lovely, I imagine the place is fantastic on a night time for a few drinks. Lovely day out for the 4 generations :) will definitely be back!

Four of us went for tapas on a Sunday afternoon with a Groupon - I had expected it to be busy but it was pretty quiet. The food didn't take long to arrive, and all the tapas we chose were tasty and well cooked. They were very Spanish as they weren't very hot! However, I appreciate getting 12 individual dishes to the table, alll hot, is quite a challenge.

We visited Noir for food a few weeks earlier as we had got a cheap deal through a certain website. However we found it so delicious we revisited a few weeks later... we weren't disappointed. Service good, tapas food brilliant choice and absolutely fantastic. Really reasonably priced. Really hope more people visit as it is a little gem.

This was my fourth visit for tapas and was disappointed with our meal. The spare ribs were tough, the lamb was too salty and the chips were undercooked potato wedges. All this and a cold breeze from the 'heating' system made it a bad experience sadly as the staff were really nice and friendly. Is this why the restaurant is empty I wonder.

Been four times now. Excellent value and great food, varied menu with decent potion sizes. Friendly service. There is nothing to not recommend, if your in Whitley try this Restuarant.

We went here for my sons 18th birthday, there was 13 people and they couldn't be more accommodating, the food and drinks were lovely, I would recommend the cocktails and tapas as there was something for everyone.

What a find!!! Best Tapas ever. Good portion size, full of flavour and taste. Great staff, perfect service. Asked for a cheese board that was not on the menu, you would not believe what arrived on our table 10 mins later. Massive portion 4 select cheeses, 2 x chutney, grapes, red/green pepper sliced, 4 different types of biscuit .... You could not have asked for more.... Will never stay in Newcastle again...Whitley Bay every time..

Bought a Groupon deal for a sparkling afternoon tea and had a really lovely time. Visited on a Wednesday afternoon with the hubbie and we were served by a really friendly guy, who went out of his way to make sure everything was fine. We started with the fizz which was great and then had to choose from a choice of sandwiches and scones. sandwiches were lovely and nice and fresh, scones were really tasty just a bit on the big side which fills you up, Hubbie enjoyed the sweet things. All in all good value for money. It worked out with the deal about £8 50 each.

Just discovered here having lived around the corner for 6 months! Very stylish decor and friendly attentive staff. I ordered from the tapas menu and my partner went for a main from the Specials Board. We were both very happy with our choices! Ian had Scampi and hand cut chips which looked fabulous. Proper Scampi and Hand Cut chips served on a wooden board with home made tartare sauce. My Tapas was amazing! I made the mistake of ordering a portion of chips which I didn't need, I'll remember that next time. Delighted to have found this place and can't wait to come back and try their music night on a Thursday. Highly recommended.

Just been in, food fantastic, service even better and live music. Lindsay was amazing. This place will be fabulous when the weather gets better however in a foggy night in March Whitley bay seafront has a great feeling.

I have visited Darcies a number of times now with my Nanna who might I add swears by this place. They always treat her and her friend like royalty and always go the extra mile to make sure they are both happy! All of the food there is home cooked to perfection and tastes amazing. I’ve had the Yorkshire pudding wrap multiple times and it never disappoints potions are huge and good value for money. Lisa and the rest of the staff are lovely! There’s no doubt that she knows exactly what she is doing. I will happily be returning to Darcies and can’t wait to try the chicken nuggets my nanna raves about!

We asked for our fish to be well cooked as if it’s not we have found the batter near the fish to be uncooked, once again the batter was uncooked ( soggy) The chips were lukewarm not a great experience
