Nestled on 11 Leazes Crescent in the heart of Newcastle upon Tyne, Café 11 is a charming French-style café that masterfully blends the inviting warmth of a breakfast restaurant with the artisanal flair of a patisserie and tea house. This delightful spot has quickly become a cherished local retreat, where each visit feels like a small indulgence in both comfort and quality.
The café’s culinary offerings are a vibrant celebration of classic European café favorites, artfully crafted to delight the senses. Imagine biting into a flaky, buttery Almond Croissant with its delicate nuttiness, or savoring the rich, velvety layers of their Chocolate Cake and Cheesecake—each slice a testament to their patisserie expertise. For a heartier start, their Granola Bowl of Oatmeal with fresh Fruit and the creamy Yogurt Parfait offer wholesome textures and flavors, making breakfast both nourishing and luxurious.
Café 11 is as much about atmosphere as it is about food. The soft hum of conversation mingles with the tempting aromas of freshly brewed coffee and baked goods, creating a cocoon of relaxation. Seating is intimate, with tables overlooking the picturesque Leazes Park, adding a tranquil green backdrop to your dining experience. Here, every cappuccino is crafted to perfection—the frothy milk of their Flat White or the robust richness of their Hot Chocolate balancing the sweetness of a Raspberry and Vanilla Slice or the light airiness of a Profiterole.

Thank you Google reviewers - we would never have found this little gem. Fab coffee and I lloved my breakfast.
We stumbled across this cute little cafe when parking in the car park next door. The staff were lovely and friendly. We had the croissants which were delicious and the cakes looked amazing. Would highly recommend you try this cafe if you’re in the area.
Amazing! Staff are so friendly and lovely and dining table got nice view on street and just opposite lizeses park. They got nice French sweets and it is unique in newcastle. Breakfast is simple but so delicious. I strongly recommend this coffee to try.
Cosy french style cafe that also sells delicious patisserie style cakes, with different choices available each day. Seating is limited but nice relaxing atmosphere to enjoy an hour or two. We enjoyed warm almond and cherry scones, that crumbled nicely in your mouth, and good cappuccino coffee. We will visit again.
I give five stars for food but I only had coffee (I will go back for food soon though). Warm and friendly staff, lovely ambience. The coffee was good quality. I will definitely return. I cannot recommend this highly enough.
Absolutely beautiful food! We had lunch here after wanting to go for ages and it was everything I was hoping for. The savoury food was great, and the cakes and pastries were SENSATIONAL! As someone who used to live in Europe I am very nitpicky when it comes to pastries and cake and I was honestly so, so happy with everything we tried here! Do yourself a favour and visit! The staff were also absolutely lovely!
I love this place! The black forest cake here is the BEST I've had in England!!! Madly in love with the cakes here Every single one of them is so good to try ...... If I'm ever in Newcastle again, I'll definitely be back!
