Barluga's new elegant look and feel

Barluga gets £1million face lift

5th March 2008, 10:04am

A firm favourite for the last ten years for business people and ladies that lunch, Newcastle’s established fine bar and restaurant Barluga has now been re-defined following a £1 million makeover by Fluid Design Solutions.

Owned and managed by Fluid Group, this much loved gastronomic stalwart is hidden behind Grey Street and re-opened its doors on the 29 February with a stunning new interior.

The distinctive new design promises to enhance the Barluga experience but retain the same excellent standards, food and service that patrons have always enjoyed.

An eclectic new menu, a fresh kitchen and exciting chef's tables where diners can enjoy watching their food being prepared, all come together for improved dining comfort to bring a new dimension to the Barluga dining experience.

Barluga's re-invigorated interior stylishly acknowledges the collision in time of the art nouveau movement with its grand Edwardian structure, perfectly marrying into the fabric of the building with a twist of the contemporary.

The existing mezzanine has been extended to accommodate an external terrace which opens up a rarely viewed backdrop of Newcastle and St Nicholas' Cathedral, providing an idyllic setting to enjoy a meal or a drink during the summer days and light nights.

The main dining area has also been enhanced with a decorative period press ceiling, grand chandeliers, bespoke carpets and a beautifully back-lit art nouveau inspired wine display. Period columns have also been introduced into the scheme to enhance the space and reflect the overall theme.

Barluga's bar has also been transformed with French rolled zinc bar tops and floating fonts suspended from the canopy above the bar, a unique feature unlike anything patrons will have experienced in Newcastle before and influenced by French style.

Dave King, Director of Fluid Design Solutions said: "The new innovative design has been carefully considered by our team to combine bespoke features and unique elements that create a superb environment and really enhance the Barluga experience.

"Barluga was already a hugely successful venue for us but we wanted to build on its previous reputation and offer our patrons more."
