Spanglish Tiendita in Newcastle upon Tyne

Fuimos a comer a este lugar con un compañero que reside en Newcastle, ya nos aviso de que no era un magnifico restaurante, ni un lugar muy acogedor ya que esta en un local de un centro comercial que esta desierto Lo regentan un matrimonio que son colombianos, por ello el servicio fue excelente pero lo que mas nos sorprendio ya que nuestro compañero no nos lo dijo fue que ellos habian estado en España y su Tiendita era casi el 50% de productos españoles. Podeis imaginar este dia en que consistio nuesta comida, chorizos riojanos, fabada, pa amb tomaquet i pernil, tortillas, etc etc.todo ello regado con un buen vino del Penedes, en resumen una gran comilona y por ello nos sentimos como en casa Relacion precio - calidad muy razonable. Aparte de este pequeño restaurante tienen la pequeña Tiendita donde puedes comprar los productos españoles. LA LASTIMA fue lo que nos comunico puesto que era muy amigo de nuestro compañero y nos dijo que en Enero o Febrero tenia que dejar el local porque una inmobiliaria habia comprado todo el edificio y tenia que cerrar el negocio al menos durante 2 años, una verdadera lastima ya que este pequeño rincon en plena ciudad era como un remanso de paz. Sin lugar a dudas era un lugar para recomendar por el buen trato y amabilidad y poder recordar un trocito de nuestro pais.

Lovely cafe best in Newcastle.lovely Latino cuisine.paella to die for delicious,variety of snacks also English food.I can recomend the chicken soup.paella and boccodilos.try also lovely fruity cocktails.Inexpensive,great to see many regulars.the owners are both lovely and friendly.if you haven't found it,its in the Newgate shopping centre.highly recommended.karen

My boyfriend is originally from Venezuela and he was over the moon to find the Tiendita. Always a warm friendly welcome when we drop in for some empanadas (they are amazing) and the staff cannot do enough for you. Take a visit if you want authentic Latin American food in the North East, you won't be disappointed or have to pay a fortune!

So pleased I stopped here. I love foreign foods so when I saw they did tortillas at 2.90 I thought why not. I wanted it on its own but he offered a few chips so I sat in. The shopping centre is deserted now so although a strange location it didn't seem out of place. To cut it short, superb tortilla and service. Made to feel very welcome too. I will definitely be back to try some more hidden delights.

We came on this little place by accident. But the food was very good and so was the service. If we return to Newcastle we're definitely coming back here!!

Would highly recommend this place for a snack or something more substantial. Portions are plenty and menu is inexpensive - around £2.50-£3 for burrito and fries/salad for which you'd easily pay double elsewhere in town, empanadas were excellent and are less than £2. The location is pretty uninspiring, but food is great and the staff are lovely.

Wandered through the arcade and found this place purely by accident. Serves South American Food at extremely pocket-friendly prices so great if your are a student or on a budget. The staff are very friendly and service prompt. Portion sizes are good for a snack to keep you going or you can order as much as you desire from their mix-and-match style menus. Makes a pleasant change from the usual fare - definitely worth a visit after shopping.

this fast food/cafe provides a really small but flavoursome menu of inexpensive tapas all under £4.00 Very tastey and good friendly service. Don't expect the great surrounding but the food is great.
