welcome to say when

Right in the heart of Gosforth High Street

It doesn’t matter whether it’s Gosforth or Ponteland you’re joining us, this is where great coffee, carefully curated small plates, thoughtfully chosen wines, and the freedom to pour your own glass all come together in a space that feels like home.

Whether you’re a frequent pourer, a weekend sipper, or just discovering your taste for wine — just say when.

Pair your glass with our speciality small plates — designed to surprise, delight, and perfectly complement every pour. Each dish is made to be shared, savoured, and remembered.

Not into wine? No problem. Enjoy our draught and bottled beers, premium spirits, or something new from our ever-changing drinks list.

Step inside. Choose your pour. Stay for a moment — or linger a little longer.

Here’s to new beginnings, good company, and many wonderful glasses together.
