Cafe 32 has a wonderful selection of excellent food, it's a bit of a hidden gem if you are not a regular at the Linskill Centre. It's great for breakfast or lunch and takeaways. I recommend the scones and a good cup of tea, it;s a true Geordie Gem.

Linkskill have outdone themselves with this little cafe, I've been a few times and had a coffee with a freshly cooked breakfast, sometimes taking a pastry for later too, perfectly cooked every time, coffee is really good and all for a good price too. The feel is deco stylish, yet cosy, it can be busy at times (usually when a class has just finished) but I've never felt rushed or crowded, just a nice place to stop for a bite. The staff at the cafe are very attentive and obviously pride themselves in good service, I mean, what more could you ask for?

I am at Cafe 32 often 2 or 3 times a week. I go to cafe 32 as I feel so comfortable, the staff are amazing, always a Hello no matter how busy, they will adjust your meal to your request, nothing is too much bother. Food is freshly cooked, so sometimes a wait happens when it's busy, however this is no hardship. Coffee is hot, smiles are big. Go check the team out.

Great food, freshly made. Portions are good and value for money. The staff are lovely and friendly too! The Cafe also made the food for my daughter's birthday party which was hosted at Linskill and it was delicious for both the adults and the children and included a great variety of gluten free options too.
