Artisan is a modern restaurant serving British-inspired menus that use the finest regional and seasonal ingredients. Heading up the kitchen is North East Chef of the Year winner Andrew Wilkinson. Sourcing from fields, foragers and fishermen, Andrew and his team are inspired by daily hauls from local producers to create menus which balance a delicacy of technique with an intensity of fresh flavour, so seasonality is of the utmost importance to Artisan. Head chef Andrew explains: 'In the summer months the plates show an abundance of colour, capturing the freshest flavours and representing the joy of the season. As winter approaches and we all batten down the hatches, Artisan serves rich traditional dishes that fill diners with warmth and comfort. The menus are a microcosm of the world around us.' Having been born and bred in the North East Andrew is immensely proud of the region's produce and growers, supporting them by sourcing ingredients locally.
In 2014, The Times nominated Artisan in the top 25 restaurants in the country for Sunday lunch. Ramy Zack, The Biscuit Factory's owner, founded Artisan in March 2014 and couldn't be happier. Recent accolades prove that Artisan is worthy of a place as one of the region's best restaurants. Its great team harnesses an incredible passion and vision and has lots of exciting ideas for 2015, so watch this space.
Located in The Biscuit Factory, the UK's largest art, craft and design gallery, Artisan is influenced by its cultural location, with creative flourishes of originality in the furnishings and a truly impressive 25-foot glass wall showcasing the latest collections of contemporary sculpture on display in the adjoining gallery. Spacious and modern in its design yet intimate and informal in its feel, Artisan is a place to luxuriate in great surroundings with great food
