We have been granted permission to go ahead with our plan for a new food hall in the Roebuck Shopping Centre. What are your opinions? What would you like to see in our food hall?
Is this still going ahead? Would love a stall in the craft emporium. Cant find any advertisement about it.
Hi Kerry, Please can you use our contact form and one of our team will get back to you will…
Please I would like more information on the craft stalls
Hi when will this be up and running.
Although Rents have apparently been reduced, there are more empty units than ever so when will there be retailers in…

A street food stall would be good or a variety of countries included
Does this mean Iceland is going ???
Hi Alison, We will be converting the old Argos store.
It be draught from automatically opening doors to car park?
itsu or wasabi
Wagamamas
Again influenced food
Valerie patisserie or some sort of pastry shop
I dont think we need any more food places .I would prefer some boutique with different clothes womens mens babies, perfumes bath bombs .something different
Food? The only way to go!!!
The Chamber of Trade and Enterprise welcome your proposal and wish you every success. We would love to be kept informed.
Looks great! Especially if there’s a vegan stall
Great! Would like to see some live music here too.
A burrito stand would be good….no more burgers please
Noodle Bar
Vegetarian/Vegan food
Craft beer bar
Tapas/Mexican
Salad Bar
exactly what we want
Artisan foods – why not encourage and support local independent growers and bakers – let’s have something more unique than a typical high street food store. cookery demonstrations to promote healthy eating options.
That sounds good. It could help to make it more interesting and more of a destination? Possibly too expensive for the centre to run, unless some artisans / supermarkets/ health visitors etc volunteer. Maybe Belong or Bradwell Hall could help occasionally?
That’s what we have been doing we want local small business’s
This is great news. I’d like to see something similar to Altrincham Market and Mackie Mayor in Manchester. Independent stalls selling a wide choice of different foods including vegan. Some stalls that sell alcohol. Make it a great place to visit at night as well as during the day.
that’s what we want and intend to do
Great news. Please replicate Altrincham market as it has become the hub of the community and has helped bring life to the whole town with new businesses opening up all around it.
Artisan stalls with good local food and vegan choices is the way to go – open all day and evening.
This is brilliant making more jobs available I would like to be notified of any jobs available please
We need more shops in the roebuck to create a food hall or else it’s just going to be like the one by vue which was open for a yr then closed
Shops will come when the food hall and craft emporium open we are sure
This is a wonderful idea. Please gain inspiration from the likes of Altrincham market or the picturedrome in Macclesfield; greasy spoon cafes and fast food chains are a thing of the past for places like this….proper made food with healthy options!
It needs somewhere for older people, perhaps on their own, to feel comfortable. A vintage tearoom with magazines so people could sit on their own and not feel awkward. Scones, tea cakes, slice of cake with tea etc.
Byegones Tea Room, Mellards Bar, Ten Green Bottles?
Please develop this with quality at the forefront of your plans. Do this on the cheap and it will devalue what could be a promising project for a town centre with great cultural connections.
This is excellent news for Newcastle. I agree with the person above about shops (units) the Roebuck centre (as well as the if Newcastle)needs to move forward with the ‘totally locally’ brand (as Leek has and succeeded ) so the units should be rented out to local businesses and the food court should use local produce with a range of snacks on the menu to suit all dietary requirements from gluten free, lactose intolerant to vegan. Make it into the hub of Newcastle with areas for weekly groups such as ‘knit and natter’, book clubs etc and an area for young families (with space for a buggies) … fingers crossed because we love Newcastle and really want it to thrive
Excellent idea, Helli.
I’m interested to see what the plan is… the food hall in the VUE obviously didn’t take off with franchised eateries, so is it going to be modelled on the likes of Mackie Mayor’s (Manchester) – The Baltic Market (Liverpool)?

A selection of different options and craft beer/gin bars?
Baltic market Liverpool Altrincham market hall and the like not a commercial fast food hall
A food hall is great….
However, what this shopping centre really needs is pay as you go parking. The current pre-pay system is archaic, and prevents visitors (shoppers) from spending time browsing the shops, then spending extra time in food halls relaxing and socialising.
We have no control over the car park prices this is owned by the Council however within our lease we have to maintain the lift area
I think a good hall is a brilliant idea. Bring some life into Newcastle.
Street food – local independent foodies selling decent food, can rotate on a weekly /monthly basis. Check out Nottingham Street Food Club for a great concept.
Personaly I dont think we need one. Newcadtle is full of places to eat and drink.
But It would be good if the food hall was open late,
affordale food to all.
Food hall will be open later
I think this is a great idea as long as the rents are reasonable so tennants can make decent profit. Newcastle needs more shops to browse around to attract more people.
Rents are lower
since we bought the centre
If this was something like Altrincham market it would be great!
Although Rents have apparently been reduced, there are more empty units than ever so when will there be retailers in the centre? instead of food or a craft place which attracts nothing to NUL
