They have a good and reasonable-priced selection of tasty pizzas, burgers, and the usual fare, and their chip portions are cheap and plentiful (although not as good as Clayton St Chippy). Usually quite busy on weekends as it's open til very late, you can still usually find a seat or two to munch away your fast-food treat, and it doesn't seem to harbour as many idiots as nearby chip-shops in the vicinity. Also great in the late afternoon if you want a quick snack.

Zapatista is a fusion between a Subway and Mexican food. You can choose from a wide range of base…read moreMexican foods including burritos, tacos and nachos. You then choose your meat (veggie options including a nice chilli are available) to top your chosen base item. Then the magic happens and you can choose from all sorts of toppings including sour cream, guacamole and a wide range of salsas. I would really recommend this place at lunch, although be prepared to wait in a queue. The burritos are impressive and you will definitely be full after one! Some of the positives include: - Great variety - Friendly staff - Cool Decor Some of the negatives include: - Lack of space - Toppings are slightly overpriced and have noticed an increase in skimping on size I love Mexican food so have waited a few times before reviewing so I can make up my mind - I was unsure wether this place seemed amazing due to the lack of Mexican alternatives in Newcastle. However it is definitely worth a visit!

Fat Hippo Newcastle seems to be one of the few restaurants in the city actually open past 9 pm,…read moreafter being turned away from half a dozen restaurants nearby that either had closed early or closed due to their timetabled opening hours, I decided to visit Fat Hippo. It is located just off Grey Street, head down the steps into the main restaurant area. I was looking for this place on my Apple Maps and did have some difficulty as the sign from outside isn't too noticeable. The staff seemed friendly and explained how most of the menu could be adapted to be gluten-free - I ended up going for the American Burger, on the menu this was described as "Double patty, American cheese, pickles, ketchup + American mustard. Includes a FREE SIDE of your choice!" I would have liked to see a wider variety of burgers on the menu, perhaps with some different and more exciting sauces - only the more premium burgers seemed to come with the Fat Hippo sauce or truffle mayo. With smashed burgers being in right now, I was surprised they didn't offer them on the menu here. My food was just OK, the fries were really skinny and a little too thin for my liking, but they were still seasoned well. My burger again was average, the meat was reasonably juicy for the type of patty used, the cheese was fine, the sauces were slightly cheap and it felt like it was overloaded around the edges, and not enough in the middle. The gluten-free bun wasn't too bad - certainly not the worst I've had but also not the best either. 3* - The food was average, if you're looking for a bite later into the evening in Newcastle, this is one of the few options, so for that it's good, I would be unlikely to return if other places were open nearby though but it's nice to have a reliable choice in the city if all else fails.
