So thought we'd try the Shoe Tree out because it's great to have new veggie places in the neighborhood. It's great! We'll definitely come again. The food was tasty and good value for money. The cafe was clean and pleasant and the food came quickly. The staff are friendly and helpful. It's dog friendly and near the park, so you can walk off all the cake afterwards ;-). Also child friendly (basically it's friendly in general). A good range of vegan and gluten-free options too.
The pancakes with banana, cinnamon and peanut butter are to die for!! The Arabic Chai Nana tea was equally good - I could drink drink it all day!
Had the most delicious lunch today at Shoe Tree Cafe - and the vegan chocolate cake was amazing! What a wonderful cafe - so very happy it's opened round the corner from me!
vegan if you want, fresh and friendly and delicious. gorgeous resourced wood tables and a menu i wish i had a week to work through. good luck and thanks for sharing your in house made goodness!
Go there right now before it will, inevitably, become so busy you have to queue down the pavement. Great food, clean, comfortable, decor/furniture, toys for kids, loose leaf teas, great coffee, it’s not that easy to get every aspect right and they definitely do!
Fantastic independent cafe with a great menu, delicious coffee and lovely staff. Will most certainly will be back!
Really friendly, excellent food and tea, and lovely atmosphere, really artistically decorated. I love the tables! And amazingly I keep bumping into friends there....
Great coffee, friendly staff, lush decor. Haven't tried to food yet but cakes look amazing, and I'm impressed by the range of dairy free stuff on offer :) makes me very happy, I'll be back a lot I reckon!
Great food and hot chocolate! Staff very welcoming to my dog and I as well. Thank you!
Very friendly, delicious food and relaxed atmosphere, will definitely be back!
Lovely staff and relaxing atmosphere. Excellent coffee. Freshly made food is yummy. Look forward to returning again very soon.
Smashing! Lovely atmosphere, delicious food, reasonable prices. What more could you want?
The orange and polenta cake is divine, gorgeous loose leaf tea too!

The staff are so lovely and the food is equally amazing.
I was told about the blend of speciality coffee bean that they use in their lattes anf had a taste test of the pourover coffee too. The staff know their stuff!
The cafe is vegetarian and vegan and the cake is particularly good (a biased sweet tooth here).
My weakness is chocolate so naturally went for the vegan chocolate and peanut butter cake which tasted heavenly...I would have thought that there was dairy in it, the taste was pretty good.
I chose a latte with dairy milk (oat milk just doesn't seem to get the same froth!) but they do loads of dairy free milk too.
A child friendly cafe with a brightly painted area outside at the back.
Craft, art, little food jars of chutney goodness available as gift ideas.
Good music, and a welcoming atmosphere.
Worth the visit.
Lovely vegetarian/ vegan cafe! Had a beautiful vegan breakfast, the tempeh bacon was amazing!! The coffee was also very tasty, I enjoyed an almond milk latte but there was a large variety of teas and coffees available. Very family and dog friendly. Would definitely recommend, already looking forward to my next visit!
Massive portions and nice variety, especially for a vegan place! Coffee is really good and the inside is cute and artsy.
Very cute place with lush teas and very lovely welcoming staff...been here a few times and have done uni work....Wi-Fi is avaliable too... it is vegan friendly too ( I'm not)
custom woodwork, a yummy vegan scone in a remarkable comfortable space. the “little breakfast” hit the spot! good luck in your first months of opening!
Lovely little baby-friendly cafe! Great menu with something for everyone - gluten free and vegan. Excellent coffee! Lovely interior and great laid-back vibe
A great place for breakfast - whether you're vegan or not, there will be something you'll love!
Amazing little café with great vegan and vegetarian brunch, coffees and cakes
Lovely staff, reasonably priced food and drinks, healthy! Good selection of seasonal cakes :) will be back!
I absolutely ADORE this place! Every time I go, I always feel like it's better than the last time I went. The staff are super friendly, the dietary options are so inclusive, especially because I'm gluten and lactose intolerant. They've even gone so far as to let me choose what new cake they'd get in so I can have some!
And this time, they sorted me out with gf cake, free of charge, and even snuck some in my bag before I left. The care and attention they've shown is outstanding.
Best cafe in Newcastle!
