Rivers Lounge: Felling’s New Hidden Gem Serving Authentic Turkish Cuisine, English Favourites, and a Stunning Shisha Experience

Felling has a new culinary hotspot that’s quickly grabbing attention across Gateshead and Newcastle. Rivers Lounge, located at Green Ln, Baltic Rd, Gateshead NE10 0SB, is already earning a reputation as one of the region’s most welcoming and beautifully presented Turkish dining venues.

The moment you step inside, Rivers Lounge feels like a world of its own—warm lighting, modern décor, and a relaxing atmosphere that sets the tone for a perfect meal, whether it’s breakfast with the family or an evening catch-up with friends.

At the heart of the restaurant is its exquisite menu of authentic Turkish cuisine, crafted with care and tradition. Expect beautifully grilled meats, fresh mezes, rich sauces, and the kind of flavours you’d normally only find on the streets of Istanbul. Their traditional Turkish breakfast spreads have become a favourite among locals—fresh bread, olives, cheeses, sucuk, eggs, honey, and more, presented the way Turkish families have enjoyed them for generations.

But Rivers Lounge isn’t just about Turkish classics. They’ve embraced the tastes of the North East too, offering traditional English breakfasts, hearty meals, and a broad selection of multicultural dishes to suit every palate. Whether you’re after a fry-up, something light, or something international, they’ve got you covered.

One of Rivers Lounge’s standout attractions is their beautiful shisha lounge, complete with authentic Turkish flavours such as Lady Killer and Love 66, alongside many others. The lounge blends comfort with sophistication, making it an ideal spot for winding down after a meal or enjoying a night out with friends.

Staff at Rivers Lounge are friendly, attentive, and make everyone feel right at home. While the venue can get busy—especially on weekends—booking in advance is recommended but not essential, making it convenient for both planned evenings and spontaneous visits.

With its warm hospitality, diverse menu, high-quality shisha, and unique atmosphere, Rivers Lounge is shaping up to be one of Gateshead’s must-visit dining destinations.
