About The Small Canteen
The Small Canteen is an intimate independent restaurant tucked away on Starbeck Avenue in Sandyford, on the edge of Jesmond. It offers a concise, frequently-changing dinner menu that makes the most of seasonal and locally-sourced ingredients, cooked with care in a relaxed neighbourhood setting.
Its small size lends it a personal, welcoming atmosphere, and it has built a loyal local following among those looking for thoughtful, ingredient-led cooking away from the busier Osborne Road strip.
