BALTIC CAFÉ BAR

MARY BLUE AT BALTIC CAFE BAR
With its slate interior and clubby, dubby tunes, the groundfloor cafe at BALTIC contemporary art centre is a seductive hang-out. The menu includes upmarket paninis (blue cheese, pear, walnut and roasted shallot, say), jacket potatoes and salads, hot dishes, and cakes from Cafe Royal. Catering was taken over by local company Fresh Element in 2009, and their commitment to quality is evident even in the pre-packed sandwiches. A tuna, olive, caper and creme fraiche sarnie (£2.95) is a bright-eyed, bushy-tailed surprise. Rarely is anything that pleasant plucked from a chiller cabinet




Indulge in the luxury and simplicity, BALTIC offers you a range of delicious food and drinks, here customers are able to reduce the pressure of time with a ‘pick me up’ from Fresh Element.

Luxury; comfortable; relax and quiet are the words to describe the ambience here. All of the foods here are nice and cheap. It offers all day breakfast, soup, fresh salad, baked potatoes, sandwiches as well as paninis. In addition, various types of drinks are available here as well, including both soft and hot drinks, healthy and yummy smoothie. If you are a super fan for wine, BALTIC is your best choice. White wine, rose wine, red wine, sparkling wine as well as champagne are all available.



The price in BALTIC is brilliant. All the food here cost less than £7; both soft and hot drinks are even cheaper, and it only takes you less than £3 to take a bottle of Sprits.



Apart from the gorgeous foods and drinks, BALTIC also offers a range of spaces for hire, and can accommodate a wide range of events-from meetings and workshops to banquets and conferences.
