Rene's in North Tyneside

Excellent food and staff. Well worth a visit.

Beautiful cafe, helpful and kind staff. Excellent coffee, which you can also have dessert, sweet pastries. I highly recommend ❤️

Lovely little cafe enjoyed a coffee and a slice of cake , service was really good , dog friendly and child friendly, atmosphere was brilliant as well , perfect cafe

Great service and excellent food.👍

Had the Tuna Mayo jacket potato. It was delicious and well balanced meal - with salad, coleslaw and quinoa. Coffee was fragrant too.

Went in for coffee ended up having jacket potatoes one with coronation chicken and one with cheese. 2 coffees and it was Beautifully cooked. Will be back next time we come up from North Wales.

Got a bacon sandwich each for the 4 of us....absolutely lovely. Perfect breakfast sandwich for a good price. Hash browns were lovely too. 😎😎

The service on Sunday was terrible. Ordering is good and quick. Our drinks arrived immediately but our two sandwiches took 40 minutes to arrive. It would have been better for staff to inform us of this . But customers ordering toasted teacakes or scones were served straightaway, all coming from the same kichen

Good atmosphere, lovely food, reasonably priced, what’s not to love

Very lovingly furnished café in the typical English style: beautifully kitschy, old furniture, everything lovingly thrown together. The most important thing: there were scones (which we looked for in vain in Newcastle, where there were only sterile chains with no typical English delicacies). Everything was wonderful here!

Annual trip to Tynemouth. Annual trip to Rene’s for a drink and a snack. Cafe as quirky and quaint as usual. Staff as nice as usual. Food as nice as usual. Nothing more to say really. Will no doubt be back on the next visit to Tynemouth

Wonderful place. The staff were so friendly and the service was superb The food was lovely, beautifully presented and really tasty. Fab selection of cakes too!

Not good didn't feel clean in the back room food not good and service was bad chicken sandwich was not as expected it was pulled chicken swimming in gravy I had to ask for my cup of tea it hadn't arrived probably about 20 minutes or more after I ordered i

Very friendly and helpful staff. Very tasty scones with clotted cream and jam. The Yorkshire tea was also very good. Nice furniture and decorations.

Excellent coffee shop with fantastic (huge) cake portions & lovely coffee. A recommended non-chain option in Tynemouth.

My favourite place for coffee, well worth a visit, everything is lovely

Sat outside watching the people, great milkshake.

Quirky and cosy. A nice menu, good prices. I had a great scone. The only tiny issue was the chairs being a little crowded.

Wonderful Cafe with nice Victorian style decor!!! Friendly and good service!!! Enjoyed a nice cup of coffee on a windy summer day!

Two friends and I visited here for a coffee and scone. This is a wee magical place - loved the decor. The coffee and scone perfect. Staff were attentive and helpful. Worth a visit 👏👏

Really disappointed. Only went in as our usual cafe was shut on Mondays. Not sure if they were having a bad day but all the staff looked miserable. My husband ordered a sandwich which when brought out was slapped down on the other end of the table with a grunt of "Food". The coffee was shocking, tasted weak and milk far too hot. I'll stick to our usual place or go without next time

Nice atmosphere. Good food. Painfully slow service even at quiet times.

Our go to cafe when in the Tynemouth area. Really good coffee, sandwiches and soups.

What a great eat place with lovely staff. We had a fabulous gluten free lunch today, we had a BLT with salad and coleslaw and a cheese toastie also with the extras. Both freshly made and delicious, definitely had to try a gluten free caramel slice, wasn't disappointed, we'll definitely be revisiting, it's also dog friendly.

Very nice little cafe in the center of Tynemouth. Staff very nice. Coffee tasted good and the price was right

I visited a couple of days ago, and ordered a chicken and gravy stottie instead of a thick white bread. When it arrived i did not receive on a stottie, but I didn't complain as it looked very delicious on white bread anyway. It was one of the nicest sandwiches I have ever had and would visit here again.

Lacked atmosphere, very rude member of staff

Excellent value for money and delicious toasties

Lovely little cafe in the heart of tynemouth. It doesn't stand out a great deal from the front street so never been here before, but its lovely inside and staff are really nice too. We chose this as was looking for something other than the traditional fish and chips every time we visit the coast. We had toasties and milkshakes on this occasion. Worth a visit.

What a fabulous find in Tynemouth. We had the lentil and bacon soup and shared the roast chicken sandwich. It was so good I came home and made the soup myself! It is nigh on impossible to resist the cakes on display so we shared a piece of coffee and walnut cake, it just melted in the mouth. Will definitely return!

Been a couple of times, staff helpful for cuppas and cake

Regularly use on a Sunday morning for a cuppa & bacon sandwich. Also have a good varied menu. Comfortable, Relaxing venue Good value for money.

Lovely cafe on the main street. Great coffee...Nice range of cakes... They brought the food but I had to ask for the table to be cleaned as they were putting it down on what was clearly a dirty table... But other than that we'll worth a visit

Great little cafe on Front Street with fabulous cheese scones! Was there twice within 48 hours!

Nice little place with good food friendly staff

Lots of atmosphere and pleasant staff. Good food

Great coffee, great food & very professional staff. Lovely cafe with a very friendly vibe. Loved it.

Lovely little cafe in tynemouth, great outdoor seating right on the street to take a break. Hot chocolate with marshmallows is a must.

One of our favourites though haven’t been for a while. Nice selection of food and drinks. Only downside is it isn’t the largest of places however does have outside seating (handy for dogs). Food always lovely!

Good quality coffee and a good toasted teacakes. Loads of butter and jam, not daft little wrapped items. Pleasant staff in interesting surroundings.

Very good service super friendly staff

Absolutely lovely service and food was outstanding. We had cheesy fries the cheese thickly melted over French fries and a tuna panini with delicious coleslaw and salad. We had lattes mine was made with oat milk and it was the best latte I’ve probably ever had. I can’t recommend this coffee shop enough. Worth 5 ⭐️

Looking for somewhere dog friendly we were lucky to be able to sit outside in the sunshine . The cheese savoury storie was served with a small dish of fresh salad , dressing and a small dish of crisps. All fresh and delicious and a great value lunch .

Took my wife for her 1st ever afternoon tea a few weeks ago and Rene's was amazing. Pricing was good and the food was quality. The staff were very accommodating and friendly.

A lovely cafe. The service is great and the food is delicious.

Lovely stottie filled with bacon.

No dogs inside. No problem it was a lovely sunny April day and we sat outside. I was greeted by two lovely, friendly ladies inside who took my order. All cakes looked delicious. The one we chose to share was delicious. Cappuccino was great. We don’t live locally but when we visit Tynemouth, this is where we come. Thank you ladies.

Really nice, food ,nice staff would recommend bacon sandwich fresh,fresh

Lovely quirky cafe and the food was beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. We will certainly be back.

Such a lovely and popular café - I was greeted by friendly staff who directed me to the menu when I asked about hot food. I felt welcome as a solo customer. The french fries were served on a wooden board which was kind of stacked - some had already dropped onto the table as the waitress brought it over. I would suggest a bowl for practicality. The decoration was nice with fairy lights on the window and it was a pleasant experience to sit and watch people passing by outside. Gentle background music and plenty of seating for groups. Decent washroom at the back of the café which also has a baby changing facility. Only criticism is that the staff forgot about the coffee I ordered, which was rectified quickly after I asked where it was, but I had paid upfront so I think it would have been missed.

Very friendly staff and the food is very nice and very well presented. Also a lovely cup of tea.

Quirky little cafe. Staff were polite. Food was excellent. Coffee was outstanding.

Lovely place to pop in for coffee and lunch

What's a great place! Big surprise on plus compared to other similar places! Great tasty food served. And how it's looks you can see on picture. Maybe looking small from outside, but more space upstairs. Very nice and friendly staff . Worth to visit if you close, or travel if you far away. See you again soon 👍

Lovely and cozy little cafe who were very catering to my dietary requirements. Loved that there was a vegan chocolate fudge cake, it was delicious! Great food and quite affordable too. I was shocked when my apple juice, sausage sandwich with crisps and the slice of cake only came to roughly £10, thought it was a great price for the quality of food! I can imagine it can be a busy little cafe but I visited with my friend at around 1/2pm on a Thursday and there were a plenty of seats available. I’ll certainly be back!

小巧、溫馨、氣氛好的下午茶小館。單價不高，每樣式約1-3英鎊，有司康、蛋糕、熱茶、熱牛奶、熱狗，服務生也蠻客氣的。店家似乎蠻早就關門了，可能4點不到就關了，剛好在關門前進去，那時店內有許多老奶奶坐在上層聊天，感覺她們似乎是常客。整體店家讓人感覺放鬆。 small but cozy afternoon tea with a good atmosphere. they provide hot tea, coffee, scones, cakes, and hot dogs ...priced at about 1-3 pounds each. the closing time seems to be about 4 pm. recommding to be here relax and enjoy.

We had a long tiring day of walking and decided to grab a coffee and bite to eat. We'd never been to Renes so decided to give it a try. Well... What can I say, it was JUST what we needed! The coffee's were amazing and the food was even better! Not to mention the whole atmosphere of the place really perked us up. It's like a mini Betty's Tearoom! The place was buzzing and they have the loveliest of staff. Always served with a smile, Sophie in particular was fab! Really nice girl. I'll deffinatly be coming back to Renes and strongly recommend everyone to give it a go.

Very busy but fab coffee fab cakes and lovely staff

Cozy place, delicious cakes and tasty coffees. Lovely staff as well. The caramel cake is a must try. It was amazing.

We pop in here for a good pot of tea and big sausage sandwich whenever in tynemouth. We'll worth a visit. Lovely staff. Plenty of cakes also. Near metro and bus. Also near weekend station markets.

Went to Rene’s for afternoon tea. The spread was amazing. Good choice of sandwiches, all freshly made and the scones and cakes were gorgeous. Really good value and lovely friendly staff. Great value for money. Will definitely be back

Quirky little coffee house on the Main Street in Tynemouth. Went in with my husband he had a toastie good quality ingredients and a nice full toastie I had a panini which was very tasty my only tiny niggle is you get bits of sides salad, coleslaw, couscous and dressing and they all come in separate little pots the sandwiches are on a flat wooden board so you can’t tip them out because the dressing wouldn’t stay on the board which makes it difficult to eat out of the tiny little pots I’d save on washing get some plates and pop it all on a plate. Coffee was lovely you can taste the nice quality

Great little coffee shop, cheap cakes and a wide variety of drinks and food. Would recommend stopping there for a quick bite to eat at lunchtime.

Nice relaxed place to meet up - I think it was a Friday about 12 - only two of us. My brother had the homemade soup which was pretty good and I had a hot dog which was really tasty and not something I would usually go for - thoroughly enjoyed it. Can't remember there being much in the way of music, maybe there was but obviously the nice thing must have been it was not intrusive - lots of places seem to forget people get together for a reason - tat is to talk!! Looking forward to going back. Menu offers a good variety for all tastes and appetities.

Fantastic food and coffee. Very fresh, original ingredients. Good sized portions and not expensive. Friendly service.

Lovely coffee, friendly service

We had 2 sandwiches which were delicious and the bread was soft and artisan . We will definitely be back .

It serves Decent Lavaza Coffee, which is usual for the area. Can also pop in for a glass of wine.. The staff are pleasant here and it's a good venue The menu needs work .. mainly sandwiches and baked potatoes which l find lacking in this day and ay

Scone was fine but forgot about our Order, brought the wrong order out and then the exact same thing happened to the lady beside me

I paid Rene's a visit to try their coffee and cakes and it was quite a good experience. I didn't mind paying £ 3.95 for a very generous slice of caramel cake that looked and tasted first class and my cappucino was generous for £ 2.85. The staff were friendly and service was decent enough. However, Rene's is rather cramped inside and while I visited on a weekday and found a table easily, this might not be the case at the weekend.

Lovely, fresh tasty food and excellent service 👍

Market Sunday but managed to get a seat. Nice eats. Average café prices.

This was our second visit for lunch. On both occasions the food was excellent, the service less so. Yesterday we were seated next to the service counter. A customer asked that a dogs water bowl be refilled. The young lady working on the counter immediately collected it and filled it up. Once she had completed this she returned to the counter and continued working without washing her hands!! Basic hygiene rules which should be enforced by the management.

beautiful afternoon tea,great price fantastic staff...cheers guys xxxx

Called in for coffee today. What a gem this is! Really cosy, friendly staff. Coffee and cake was lovely plenty of choice will be back to sample more.

First time visit Saturday 4/6/2022 . First impressions are lasting ! Superb service ,sandwiches and fries Great .Definitely be back !

This cafe does the most amazing egg mayo sandwiches,great atmosphere and the staff are wonderful as is their home made coleslaw

We called for lunch. There were three of us. We ordered a BLT, cheese and ham toastie and a peri peri chicken, mozzarella and jalapeno panini as well as three drinks. The coffee was very good. The sandwiches were all served with side salad, dressing and coleslaw. The BLT also had crisps. The food was very good. The ingredients were high quality and ir was all cooked really well. The bill came to just over £24. If I visited Tynemouth again I wouldn't hesitate to visit.

Six visits to the area during the last six years. Just had the fourth visit to Rene’s in that time. First one was excellent, second not so good, third better again, so I think it can be a bit hit and miss, but no complaints this time. It’s a lovely little tea shop with lots of character. Staff are friendly. They do a mean fruit scone with clotted cream and jam. What more could you ask of a tea room? No doubt we’ll be beck again on any future visits to the area

Great cafe excellent food and service.

Nice coffee shop, but no one about when we 1st went in, no prices on cakes we chose, when asked she just said oh you pay when you leave. Having said that, cakes were nice & i liked the decor of the place & you weren't rushed out, so would go again.

A warm and friendly place with decent coffee and good looking cakes. Didn't try anything to eat but would definitely return

A regular customer due to the fact that the girls who work there are friendly and polite Tables always clean and first rate service Toasted teacakes comes with plenty of butter and jam in separate little dishes Great value for money in quirky surroundings

Lovely cakes and coffee friendly staff

Visited here for mother's day treat. Paninis and fries very good. Nice selection of cakes. Service a bit chaotic and cramped inside seating area. Nice for a change though.

Nice place nice staff great coffee and cake

Had a simple order with friends, soup, sandwiches and a hot dog (which was obviously microwaved) I I could cook all of our order in less time, it would taste better and it would be cheaper. We waited 50mins for our food and the staff...

Small but friendly cafe good choice of food🙂

Great cake and toasted sandwiches

Great coffee and hot chocolate was amazing. Food was tasty and well-presented - toastie and scone with cream and jam. More than happy to recommend René’s.

First visit to this cafe. Lovely place friendly staff. We had tea and cake, the tea was great and the cake was delicious. Next time we are in Teignmouth we will be returning

Really nice place, very cosy and the staff were really nice. Price was good and the tea was lovely. Will definitely be visiting again soon

Poor service . Non existent really. Gave up after 15 mins. The Sunday staff (at least) do not know how to treat their clientele. Shame as it used to be very good but could never recommend it any longer.

A really lovely place to have our favourite snack of coffee and scones. The decor is beautiful and relaxing and the staff are really lovely.

Nice place, pleasant staff and good coffee

Superb, homely and great value. Lovely ladies on duty on NYD. Thank you.

Warm, friendly atmosphere and a good bacon sandwich.

A wonderful place, full of kindness, smile and passion. We will always come back here. We will always come back here 🤩😍💟👏

A wonderful place, full of kindness, smile and passion.
