Our community cafe

At the heart of Howdon Community Hub is Howdelicious, a modern and contemporary café serving delectable and affordable food to our community.

Whether it’s a cuppa and a catch up after the school run, or dinner with the kids after Saturday morning football, we’re ready with the perfect bite.

Our main aim with Howdelicious is to make sure that cost isn’t a barrier to anyone when they’re looking to access good food, good company and all the social benefits of community spaces.

Our menu

Our menu is designed to offer a wide range of dishes, and our daily specials are a mix of old-school classics and exciting modern treats. We also offer a range of hot and cold drinks and snacks; just the thing for a quick top up after a gym session, or warming up out of that Tyneside
rain.

We do catering too

If you’re looking to feed a few more than just you and the kids, we can bring Howdelicious to you with our external catering offer.

Whether you’ve got a family party on the cards, or a corporate breakfast to run, we can help with a competitively priced and hand delivered buffet, with a menu built to your specific tastes, perfect for fussy eaters. Our buffets are tailored to each individual event, and we can cater for all dietary requirements.

Catering from Howdelicious is a chance for your company to show your dedication to supporting local charity, or to inspire a conversation about giving back to the community at your next family gathering.

Our staff

Not only does Howdelicious have an impact in Howdon with the food it serves, it also makes changes in the lives of the people who serve it.

At Family Gateway, we believe that the way we hire and train our staff can make just as much change in society as our frontline work. Nowhere is that more obvious than behind the scenes at Howdelicious.

Our kitchen and serving staff come from all walks of life. Several had experienced long-term unemployment before finding work with us, some had been supported by Family Gateway’s Support Services and came on board via volunteering, and some are proud military veterans.

We know that the recipe for success with Howdelicious isn’t complicated: Good food, served by good people, in a good place.
