Bistro popolari a Blyth

We really enjoyed our meal at Charlie’s. Our waitress was super and dealt with issues caused elsewhere in the hotel for us. There was quite a wait for our main courses. We were staying in the hotel so it didn’t bother us but it took about an hour. Overall, we enjoyed our evening and would happily dine in Charlie’s if we were back at the hotel.

Lovely service from start to finish, delicious food and a really nice quality experience. Very good portions and value. Will definitely return.

As always our lunch was delicious, service was friendly and efficient and the whole experience was a joy. We both had the fixed price menu which is incredible value for such wonderful food. Fish rillettes with tasty garnishes and crusty rolls they make themselves, tender steak with flavourful gravy and perfectly cooked coley for our mains, a side of hot and tasty cauliflower cheese, and a fruit compote that distilled the flavours of autumn with a hint of mulled wine. It takes a lot of time and skill to produce a meal of such a high standard and I don’t know anywhere else that could make such great food at such an affordable price. The calm atmosphere and attractive surroundings add to a lovely experience and the service is always so professional. Thank you, Bouchon, and we’ll be back soon!

Party of 2, we booked very late and were a few minutes late owing to a typically tardy train. On arrival, service was prompt and we were shown to our table in what was a busy (though by no means very loud) restaurant. I had the steak baguette with frites and my sister went for a pasta dish that was surprisngly plentiful given it was from the light mains menu which was apparently excellent. I asked my steak to be done to medium well done and I may as well have asked for perfection because that was what was delivered. I've been a few times now and never had a bad experience, even during peak demand. The setting is great, the food is invariably great, the staff are lovely, and you are not deafened by music. Is it my favourite restaurant in Newcastle? Yes it is.

Was a great experience,we would definitely visit again
