Beware as Google maps told us it was closed on Saturdays but it is open. It's a lovely bright space, comfortable for hours of chat without feeling you should leave! Good menu choices. Coffee was good. Friendly service. A great find!

Café1879 is part of the YMCA experience and although it's not one of my regular haunts as i don't tend to go to café's or eat out I have found it to be friendly and welcoming. There is a good selection of drinks and the menu has a good variety of choices. It's clean and well laid out and the staff are professional and efficient, and from what i have observed families with children of all ages are welcome.

Love to use this place after the gym. Very warm and inviting place! The food is very good and very reasonably priced. Well worth a try ?

Second time I've been here and have really enjoyed it both times. Staff are lovely and friendly. Nice clean environment.

I visited Cafe 1879 for the first time today as I was looking for somewhere quiet to feed and change my baby. The cafe is spacious and clean, and the staff were friendly. But the main reason I?ll be returning is because I had the best cheese scone I?ve ever eaten (along with a generous pot of tea). I would recommend Cafe 1879 to anyone looking for somewhere to grab a drink or bite to eat in North Shields.

We'd been trekking the Hadrians wall path and decided to finish at Tynemouth. With sore feet and empty bellies my wife spotted the YMCA. A spacious, clean, warm and tastefully decorated environment with friendly staff and great food, which is very well priced too. We'll worth a look if you are in the area. Faultless, hence 5*

I was due to meet some one for work and they didn't come but I had a lovely bacon butty. Staff are very friendly, it is clean and has a great atmosphere. I was also able to get some work done with reliable free WiFi.

Me and my family are regulars as the coffee is excellent and the scones are fresh and delicious as well as the other food and drinks. Highly recommend and great value for money. The staff are great and play a big part in the atmosphere and happy customers ?

I popped in here for the first time today as I was up from North Yorkshire visiting a friend. I had the lasagne which was one of the best I?ve ever had and having an Italian heritage that has to be good. I really enjoyed my visit and the lady who took my payment was really pleasant and made me feel really welcome. I think her name was Shona but apologise if I?m wrong. She came over as passionate about what she does and it was evident that she cares. The place itself was spotlessly clean and I would recommend it 110%. I wish we had one of these cafes where I live. Please open one in Yorkshire but it would need a Shona and her team or it wouldn?t be the same. Thank you.
