Turtle Bay Newcastle

In the heart of Newcastle city centre, Turtle Bay Newcastle brings laid-back Caribbean spirit to the city. The mood is relaxed yet festive, made for casual catch-ups and big celebrations alike. Ideally placed for a lively bite or drinks before or after a theatre visit or gig, it pairs sunshine-bright flavours with an extensive line-up of tropical cocktails.

The menu leans into bold spice, fresh herbs and a touch of heat. Mornings might start with the full Caribbean or island eggs - bacon, while small plates invite grazing: think chilli and thyme olives, spiced sausage with jerk gravy and pickled pink onion, and Trini doubles tucked in soft bara roti. Seafood fans can roll up their sleeves for pit prawns slicked with Scotch bonnet garlic butter and roti, before moving on to mains such as whole sea bream grilled with herbs, butter, lemon and thyme, or a Carib steak finished with zesty Trini-churri.

With a no-hire-fee space for larger parties and events, Turtle Bay Newcastle is set up for good times without the fuss. Gather the crew, make a date, and slip into island time—no passport required.
