Newcastle’s iconic SIX Rooftop restaurant is set to reach new heights in dining, following a luxurious refurbishment.
Serving up breathtaking panoramic views and tempting menus, SIX Rooftop has been stealing hearts and bagging rave reviews its opening back in 2009. And now, the celebrated dining spot – perched atop BALTIC Centre for Contemporary Art – is preparing for a new and exciting chapter of business, following a luxurious and highly-anticipated makeover.
Blending modern aesthetics with the venue’s rich history and unique architecture, the restaurant’s tasteful upgrade – which was unveiled to the public on its 15th anniversary in February – includes a statement bar inside a full-service dining area, a sumptuous viewing lounge for relaxed dining, an exclusive Chef’s Table for small parties and a revamped menu that pays homage to its impressive 15-year legacy.
Spearheaded by interior designer, Julie Chambers, the redesign embraces a darker colour scheme with green and grey accents, sleek wood, marble furnishings and touches of gold, creating an opulent and intimate atmosphere, complemented by improved acoustics and upgraded lighting.
For those seeking an intimate culinary journey, the restaurant’s new Chef’s Table accommodates parties of up to six, allowing guests to revel in the culinary magic happening in the kitchen. The state-of-the-art bar, meanwhile, is a highlight, featuring reeded glass and a bold blend of stainless steel, marble and wood – the perfect setting to indulge in variety of drinks, including wine, cocktails, beer and non-alcoholic alternatives.
Despite the significant investment, SIX Rooftop will continue to offer one of the most competitively priced tasting menus in the region, alongside a new lounge menu of small plates – most of which are under £10.
Food director, Greg Lambert, continues to lead the restaurant’s culinary direction, infusing its 15-year history into a menu that defines fine dining in the North East. Diners can eclectic menu celebrating the best of British cuisine with locally sourced produce, with plenty of plant-based options too.
