Gateshead’s Metrocentre welcomes two new dining options - with another on the way
Diners now have even more choice at the Metrocentre.
The Metrocentre, in Gateshead, has revealed two new additions to its already extensive food and drink portfolio in the form of YoYo Noodle and German Doner Kebab (GDK).
The latest venues further strengthen the Gateshead shopping centre’s dining options, which includes other recent new signings and expansions.
YoYo Noodle has opened in the Upper Blue Mall to offer customisable noodles and rice dishes, with customers able to select from various bases, proteins, vegetables and sauces to create their meals.
Meanwhile, GDK has taken up residence in the Metrocentre’s Lower Yellow Mall where it is bringing its well-known signature gourmet kebabs to customers.
Noah Knapton, Asset Manager at Sovereign Centros from CBRE, Asset Managers of Metrocentre, has highlighted how important the shopping centre’s food and drink portfolio is to the Gateshead site.
He commented: “Quality F&B is critical for the shopping centre of the future, appealing to different visit intentions, so Metrocentre’s strategy focuses just as much on introducing new and exciting options as it does on working with existing operators to create the best experience possible.
“These new openings, refurbishments, and upsizes are a testament to the centre’s appeal as a prime destination for both established and emerging food and drink operators.”
The two latest additions are set to be followed by the opening of Tomahawk Steakhouse, a North East-based premium steakhouse renowned for high-quality cuts and a unique dining experience.
The business is currently in the process of fitting out its newest restaurant in the Metrocentre’s Upper Yellow Mall - with bosses revealing that it is set to open before the end of the year.
Diners will be able to order a ‘Steak on a Stone’, where their steak is served sizzling on a hot rock, with other menu highlights including sharing platers, wagyu, and more.
Howard Eggleston, Founder of Tomahawk Steakhouse, is looking forward to bringing Tomahawk’s unique dining experience to the shopping centre.
He said:“Our team is working hard to create a warm, inviting space that reflects everything special about Tomahawk.
“With Metrocentre’s vibrant atmosphere and high footfall, it’s the perfect location to introduce our signature ‘Steak on a Stone’ experience, where diners can cook each bite exactly to their liking for a truly memorable meal.”
As well as the new openings, ASK Italian, Nando’s and Wagamama, which are all based at the Metrocentre’s Qube, have all recently undergone refurbishments to improve their offering to customers.
Last month, it was announced that Greggs is fitting out its new large store in the upper Town Square, which is set to open in December.
