Bringing People Together to Take Action
Cafe
Welcome to the cafe @ Big Local
Whether you’re looking for a delicious cup of freshly ground coffee or loose leaf tea, a tasty snack or a spot to catch up with friends, we’ve got you covered.
Our spacious cafe welcomes everyone and opens onto a sunny garden with more places to sit and enjoy our menu.
We have regular events at Whitley Bay Big Local, check out our socials for updates.
Open Monday to Saturday 9am-4pm
Affordable
Our food is simple but delicious, with brunch options, sandwiches, toasties, cakes, scones and weekly specials to tempt your taste buds. There are always vegetarian, vegan and gluten free alternatives
Family Friendly
The cafe gives access to an enclosed garden. There's a carpeted play area with toys so you can keep the little ones entertained. And plenty of room for buggies and prams too. We offer a range of activities for all the family to get involved
Sustainable
We compost, minimise waste and source ingredients from local suppliers. The cafe is made from low carbon materials; powered by solar panels and our great tasting coffee is fairtrade certified and organic
Accessible
Our space is wheelchair accessible with accessible toilets and baby changing facilities
"Come and visit and see for yourself why we’re more than just a cafe. Every time you visit, you’re helping us fund activities that benefit the local community."
We've made some small changes to our cafe menu.
We want to think more sustainably, using surplus produce where we can and prevent it from going in to landfill.
We hope to inspire you to create delicious, fresh, high quality meals using ingredients that would otherwise be thrown away.
We still have all of our great, vegetarian, vegan and gluten free options but they'll rotate more often depending on what's available.
Healthy and nutritional specials.
Affordable options to grab on the go.
Sustainably sourced produce.
Less food waste.
Pop in and see what's for lunch today!
