Caffe Vivo

BYO – 1st Wednesday of each month

April 27th, 2013

Our ever popular BYO nights are still going strong!  The concept is simple……. the idea is that you root around under the stairs for that Lambrusco that was given to you as a secret Santa, or that bottle of wine that you have been saving for a special occasion which has somehow never come, or which you thought was too expensive to drink at home – and you bring it with you to Caffè Vivo and drink it with your dinner.  We won’t charge you any corkage, just remember to chill anything that needs it beforehand!

BYO nights are held on the 1^st Wednesday of every month, book online or give us a call on 0191 232 1331 to reserve your table.

Birra Toz – Friulian Craft Beer

April 8th, 2013

We are thrilled to introduce Birra Toz and Toz Easy as our new house beers.

Unpastuerised and unfiltered, these Italian artisan craft beers are brewed in Friuli especially for the young at heart.

Toz is a top fermented pale ale with delicate fruit and citrus aromas; at 4.8% abv a perfect match for our food.

Easy is a 4% abv pale ale with herbal aromas from freshly harvested barley and almost tobacco like spices. A real thirst quencher.
