The Allard's Journey

Allard’s Lounge first opened its doors in the Summer of 2011. Stealing its name from the early use of the very building we are housed in, our ethos was to be a small and cosy café, serving fresh tapas and a wide variety of Wines. It soon became clear that we would grow to be so much more…… Our property was known as “Allards Grocery & Provision Merchants” in the late 1800’s. It was locally famous for selling a unique ‘Golden Tip Tea’, it would have been blasphemy to not doff our hats to the buildings proud history.

With a prime position on the bustling Tynemouth Front Street, a stones throw from our Award Winning Beaches & Famous Tynemouth Priory, we have grown our little café into something quite special.

Come and join us and see for yourselves, we’re sure you wont be disappointed.
