Pumphreys Coffee Centre & Brewing Emporium in Newcastle upon Tyne

Great service, great coffee! Knowledgeable staff

Probably the best coffee I've had in Newcastle

Located directly next to my favourite Biang Biang Noodles store, this coffee bar is a definite must-visit for coffee enthusiasts ☕️ the ambience is lovely for a quick cuppa, or just to sit in and have a nice warm hot choc. I just love the vibes. The various types of beans they have, their knowledge of their craft, the barista art - all adds to the charm of this spot. I like to stop here just after having pleasant meals in the offerings of Grainger Market 😄

i have been thinking about posting a review quite a while now. The black guy working at Pumphrey’s is very rude, in contrast with the general atmosphere. In general decent qualify coffee but personally I’ d appreciate a touch of politeness and manners.

What a gem of an independent coffee shop with a very knowledgeable team to help and advise your way through the notes and offers of coffee beans on sale. It was a delight to see the coffee making being done correctly by Samson and the excellent customer service given by Roberto. Thank you for giving that ray of sunshine on a cloudy day!

These coffee beans are the best! Fantastic quality at prices that won't make your wallet cry. And I scored a coffee dripper that came with more than 50 filters, and makes the perfect V60 brew. Seriously, I can't stop raving about this place – it's my coffee paradise!

Coming from Sydney and being picky about coffee, this place surely steps up as one of my favourites. Coffee like we get in Sydney. Tried Daterra Sunrise blend - strong good coffee with nutty flavour and good aftertaste.

Came in the morning and the coffee is sooo good. Was planning to bring some beans back but it’s a bit pricy.

The place makes quite an impression, as if you had stepped back in time. Very good coffee and great service

One of the best flat whites i’ve ever had in town.

I love this place and they do have a good v60 coffee with different kinds of beans

Managed to buy Lapsang Souchong tea, which I can no longer buy in the supermarkets.

I went for a specific tea and they ordered it in for me, and it came when they said. It's also in the very atmospheric Grainger Market, so always a pleasure to visit. I just wish it was open a little later than 5. Beware: the map at entrances to the market lists Pumphrey's at Units 51-53, but it isn't. It's under the glass roof in the middle of the market, where as far as I can see the units are unnumbered. So just head for the glass roof; you can see where it is by the extra light in one area of the market.

Great coffee, knowledgeable and friendly staff, a really great place to have coffee in Newcastle...it just needs more seats...

This is my go-to for all things coffee/tea for making at home! Always very friendly and knowledgeable with the widest selection of Decaff coffee beans I have ever seen!

What can I say, excellent as always. Rachel, Chloe Jack and Jon are excellent. I must visit place when in Newcastle city centre. Keep up the excellent work

I visited yesterday to buy a birthday present for my partner. I am completely clueless when it comes to coffee so the server talked me through the various products I could use for brewing and serving. She also recommended some different coffees for him to try with different flavour profiles. All in all, this was an incredibly positive experience, I now know more about coffee than I ever thought I would. Thank you to the wonderful staff at Pumphreys!

Different types of coffee and delicious

Love this place nice tea and coffee and team working there very friendly and helpful

Coffee is simply great. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff. This is our first week in Newcastle and we have been there three times already!

Service is extremely slow even though there’s no customers. The male barista (bigger guy) spends hours just yapping with regulars, ignoring other customers. Not coming back.

Lovely coffee,tasty cookies. Friendly and chatty staff

For the first time ever, a very disappointing coffee. 😞

I bought 300g of beans from the storefront. There's no indication of when they were roasted, or sat in the container for. However, my main issue is that there's less than 270g in the bag, it's closer to 250g than 300g. I won't be going back.

Thomas was absolutely wonderful, I’ve never had a better coffee experience. Rachel was also great.

Coffee looks nice but the barista put a heart on my boyfriends coffee so I’m raging. Stop flirting with my boyfriend with ya coffee art please. 4 circles for you.

Great coffee, has much selection so have a look at the book and there might be lots you haven’t tried.

Great place to get loose leaf tea and freshly ground coffee. Both takeaway drinks and beans and leaves for home brewing. Wide selection of flavours and styles available by weight as well as tea and coffee preparation items. Friendly knowledgeable staff happy to answer any questions.

Lovely coffee. The staff are very friendly and good prices on beverages.

The most affordable and delicious coffee you will find in Newcastle! Couldn't recommend highly enough. Staff are also so knowledgeable and friendly!

This was such an enjoyable experience, Rachel was helpful and proactive personally feel like it’s best coffee in the city. Hands down!!

Really good coffee in the market

Coffee is simply delicious from here. Great staff and so knowledgable about the black stuff! Takes American Express. Nice place for either quick coffee or the paraphernalia that comes with coffee making!!

Lovely local coffee store. I recommend their special blend - very smooth.

The Pumphreys stall in the Grainger Market is an utter delight. I hugely enjoyed sitting at a small table drinking velvety, opulent flat whites and trying a delicious cookie. The staff are incredibly knowledgeable and helpful.I bought some excellent coffee for home use. This is an unpretentious, essential destination for serious coffee drinkers.

Not a massive coffee drinker but do like their flat white with oat milk. Not sure if this is still happening but card payments have to be over £5 so be careful if you don't have any money on you

Excellent coffee, well crafted and seems like it'd be a good place to improve your brewing technique.

We ordered a Hot chocolate and Mocha from Pumphreys and the staff are so lovely and approachable! (they recommended a few spots were we could drink outdoors) and the quality of the drinks were absolutely top notch! We will definitely be returning!

Delicious coffee, lovely helpful staff.

A Newcastle institution. Great coffee and great friendly service.

Visited yesterday around 12.30 to pick up a tin of coffee. There was a considerable queue of customers waiting for takeaway coffees as well as those waiting to order loose coffee. The young girl serving never stopped - and despite the workload her attitude was charming - smiling to her customers, polite and efficient. A credit to Pumphries personnel recruitment! It's all too easy to be critical - especially in these "dark times" We should equally give praise when we encounter nice service to cheer us up? Great range of good quality coffees and teas and set out attractively.

Great coffee made by skilled baristas, as well as all the equipment and coffee you need for the house - excellent!

Great range of coffee beans, will grind if requested, friendly and helpful staff

Reasonable prices, friendly and welcoming staff and the coffee is damn good

Nice staff. I'm actually not a big coffee fan but I do love the vibes.

I cannot praise this place enough. Fantastic coffee to take home. Delicious coffee to drink as you shop. Lovely,helpful staff.

Love the coffee here. Best there is. Staff are top quality too.

Excellent cocktails, fabulous atmosphere

Do I have to write one hundred characters to say this is the best coffee in Newcastle obviously I do.

A shop inside the famous Grainger Market in Newcastle specialists in worldwide brands of coffee with a small seated area for those wishing to try what's available Restricted space at the moment as the Market is full of scaffolding as the roof is under replacement and incredibly this will take a year!! Market like a vast building site at present

Lovely staff, nice cafe, good coffee.

If your after hipster high quality coffee this is the place. So many good coffees to choose from.

The coffee is superb. Always. With a great choice of roasted beans available for on-the-spot grinding, it's on my regular tourist trail. Try to know how much you want! The lady serving me was impatient because I didn't know how much the Pumphrey's bags held so I couldn't tell her the weight.

All your brewing needs. Aeropress/drip filter. Beans etc. Helpful staff, set in Grainger Market. Make sure you visit .

Great coffee with rubbish service. Has always been excellent but last two visits have been very poor

Nice chilled vibe. Nice setting inside the grainger market. Try the coffee of the month ☕

Pretty much legendary among the local tea and coffee aficionados.

Great coffee with vegan and decaf options.

Great coffee served in a great location, also the layout makes it a refreshing place to enjoy a coffee, as there's no room for laptops and everyone is sat at the bar.

Always 5 star service and then product is 2nd to none

Really amazing speciality coffee. Beautiful latte art and amazing espresso. Service is friendly and personal - I will be returning!

Great place to buy fresh ground coffee

Great coffee bar in the Grainger Market. Went there everyday for coffees on my week's trip. Do an excellent decaf expresso which is hard to tell difference from real thing. Nice helpful staff.

Probably the best coffee in Newcastle, my go to when in town.

Excellent and wide range of coffees, from beans to ground. A coffee lovers dream. Be sure to try the Detarra Sunrise.

These guys know there stuff. Great choice of beans too.

Best selection of teas and freshly roasted coffee beans in the area

Service excellent and the coffee is served at exactly the correct temperature. You can then buy the coffee beans (and ground) to take home.

Wasn't keen on the coffee not much room to sit. Prefer Costa 100%

Love this place! Every time we went fantastic coffee. Did you know you can order coffee from this place.

Very nice, huge baps, lovely cake, good value

LOVE THIS SHOP HAVE GONE HERE FOR 50 YRS

Best coffee in the Grainger Market. Worth stopping by for a coffee and to buy coffee beans to take home.

You don’t have to hesitate regarding taking a cup of their marvelous coffee! Their coffee is awesome! You should try it ! If you are obsessed with drinking Late, dont miss trying “detarra coffee”, you will definitely fall in love with it ! The bad thing about this cafe is that there are not enough seats for those who prefer to sit in!

Great specialist blends and roasts

I visited Pumphreys a couple of times on a recent visit to Newcastle. It seems it is a bit of a Newcastle institution. I certainly found it a great place to while away some time with a coffee whilst chilling and people watching in Grainger Market. The house blend on this occasion was quite fruity. I did find a double shot gave the strength I was looking for. They do coffee beans/roasted to take away and I bought a kilo of their strong Italian beans. Just tried them today and it's an amazing strong coffee. Great place.

Best coffee in town. Very proficient staff

I'd argue that this is my favourite coffee shop in the north. Awesome, personal service, an excellent atmosphere and a coffee connoisseur's heaven! Thanks for the great coffee, can't wait to come by again soon.

Pumphreys is a proper local company who roast their beans just a few miles away in Blaydon. The staff here are really knowledgeable and never tire of being asked about each of the coffee blends and roasts on sale. It's a great place for a quick break in the city centre.

The best place in town for buying coffee for home.

Good People! Apart from the delicious coffee, showed such kindness to my husband today.

We buy tea and coffee here on a regular basis.A huge selection is available, our favourites are flowery orange pekoe (tea) and the 1750 blend(coffee). We are never disappointed.

Great range of coffees and teas.

Great shop ,lots of different kinds of coffee

Best coffee place in the north east. The smell and taste is out of this world!

located inside Grainger Market, this little find serves freshly ground coffee and has lots to chose from. brilliant pit stop while shopping in Newcastle. for a wee boost make sure you pay them a visit

Extensive, enticing collection of flavoursome & exotically named coffee beans in a compact & bijou location

Thank god there are companies like Pumphreys that actually make a very good cup of excellent coffee. There doesn’t seem to be a great coffee culture in Newcastle as the several coffee chain outlets were buzzing and Pumphreys quiet. . As anyone who enjoys a proper coffee will attest that the stuff they sell is pretty awful. They also have a huge range of coffee beans to buy. A must for anyone with a coffee machine. I only wish I lived in Newcastle so I could become a regular.

Delicious coffee, beautifully presented, with friendly and efficient service. Ten out of ten - we'll be back!

Lovely little bar right in the heart of the excellent Grainger Market. Excellent place to stop for a coffee and their product knowledge is very good too.

Esta bien en esta galería victoriana. La selección es magnífico. volví con varios tipos de té y unos granos de café para probar. . Sin duda volveré más a menudo. También muy erudito señorita que me atendió y tomó cuidado y paciencia en atenderme y todas mis preguntas.

There's not much more to be said about Pumphrey's than that. Go if you want something I bit different and of a much higher quality than the high street chains. One of the best in toon

Good value and a quality product, being buying our coffee from here and the actual roasting house in Blaydon for over 15 years

Tan su en Newcastle para el fin de semana por la noche, estás en el mercado para una noche de bigg loco y necesita un poco de descanso. este es el lugar de un oasis en el medio de todo el caos

Este pequeño café bar/tienda nunca se sabe es que siempre vale la pena visitar cuando en la ciudad.

Tenía un doble espresso, un televisor blanco y un capuchino entre nosotros y quedamos muy impresionados. Tenía la elección entre dos tipos de granos de café dependiendo de las preferencias y ambos eran marcadamente diferentes, pero absolutamente genial. Este es sin duda el lugar a donde ir en N-u-T si te gusta su café recién hecho de la mejor manera posible.

Amazing selection of coffee beans, helpful staff with lots of knowledge about their vast selection, nice treat when you are at work to have a quality latte x

Café en abundancia! Montones para elegir, se moler si selecciona o comprar frijoles. Blue Mountain es deliciosa! Ubicado en el encantador mercado Grainger.

The best americano I've ever had! Looking forward to our next trip to Newcastle a visit to this shop is first and last on the list 😀
