STACK Newcastle launches new £6 lunch offer – say goodbye to meal deals
- Advertisement Feature
STACK has a £6 lunch in Newcastle, and it’s a world away from the same old meal deal you’ve been eating at your desk day in and day out.
This new weekday lunch offer sees every one of its street food traders serving up a dish for just £6, Monday to Friday from 12pm – 3pm this autumn and winter.
Smash burgers, Philly cheesesteaks, pizzas, bao and loaded toasties are all on the table, cooked fresh to order at a price that won’t wreck your bank balance before payday.
Here’s what each trader’s serving up to level up your lunch…
WHY YOUR PACKED LUNCH DOESN’T STAND A CHANCE
STACK Newcastle’s whole ethos is fresh, made-to-order food that’s loaded with flavour, and the £6 deal doesn’t cut corners on that. You’re getting the same kitchens and the same recipes that pack the place out on a Saturday night, just at a lunchtime price.
The real win is the variety. Newcastle favourites like Brack Burger and Acropolis sit alongside Dylan’s Philly Cheesesteaks, Sri Lankan street food from Dinithi and hearty pub grub from Yorkshire’s Tan Hill Inn. You could eat somewhere different every day for a fortnight and still not run out of options.
HIGH LIFE NORTH TOP TIP: STACK are kindly giving one lucky HLN reader the chance to win lunch for you and your office. Enter via this link.
ACROPOLIS: A TASTE OF GREECE ON A TOON BUDGET – ST. JAMES’ STACK AND STACK NEWCASTLE
Acropolis started life as three mates running a Quayside stall in 2016 and have grown into an award-winning street food name across the North East. They’ve been a Newcastle STACK staple since the original site, and it’s hard to picture the place without them.
Their £6 ‘Six and Sound’ box comes with chicken gyros or halloumi, golden fries, fresh salad, homemade tzatziki and their signature Acropolis sauce. It’s sunshine in a box, even on a drizzly Tuesday.
BAO DOWN: TWO WAYS TO DO LUNCH – ST. JAMES’ STACK AND STACK NEWCASTLE
Another STACK OG, Bao Down is known for fluffy bao buns, gyozas and loaded fries, with fillings ranging from Korean barbecue pork to crispy Peking duck.
You’ve got two £6 options. The sticky chicken bao box packs soy and sesame glazed chicken with teriyaki sauce, Asian slaw, spring onions and sesame seeds, served with seasoned fries and a dip. Or there’s the gyoza rice bowl: pork gyozas on sticky rice, drenched in katsu curry sauce. Choose wisely or come back tomorrow for the other one.
BRACK BURGER: SMASHED, STACKED AND £6 – ST. JAMES’ STACK AND STACK NEWCASTLE
Brothers Ollie and Joe Brack started Brack Burger as a lockdown experiment in a pub kitchen and went on to scoop North East Restaurant of the Year in 2023. Their hand-pressed smash patties have earned a serious following across the region, and STACK has been home to them ever since.
For £6, you’ll get The O.G. Burger: double beef smash patties seasoned the Brack way, with Brack sauce, shredded lettuce and cheddar in a toasted brioche bun. Veggie? The V.G. Burger swaps in a plant-based patty with all the same trimmings.
DINITHI: BOLD SRI LANKAN FLAVOUR – STACK NEWCASTLE
Dinithi brings a taste of the island to STACK Newcastle, with vibrant street food packed with fragrant spices and fiery heat. If your lunch has been beige lately, it’s time to spice things up.
The £6 lunch here is a spiced chicken wrap with fries, fragrant, punchy and a proper wake-up call if your lunches have been lacking a little spice lately.
DYLAN’S PHILLY CHEESESTEAKS: ALL THE CHEESE, NONE OF THE FUSS – ST. JAMES’ STACK
Carl Mitchinson, known as Mitch, has worked in top kitchens around the country – as well as for Gordon Ramsay – brings a slice of Philadelphia to Newcastle, with tender shaved ribeye, sizzling onions and melted cheese piled into soft brioche hoagie rolls. No frills, just big flavour.
The £6 lunch here is a BBQ pulled pork Philly, loaded with sticky pulled pork and finished with tangy pickles to cut through all that richness. Grab extra napkins.
PATTERSONS: LIVERPOOL’S FRIED CHICKEN COMES TO THE TOON – STACK NEWCASTLE
Pattersons has been shaking up the fried chicken game in Liverpool for over a decade. Founder Darren James brought in Michelin-starred chef Max Gnoyke, who trained under Michel and Albert Roux at Le Gavroche, to perfect the recipe, and that same signature chicken still powers every Pattersons site today.
Lunch for £6 means the classic chicken mayo burger or a hot dog, both served with fries.
THE FLAMING TATTIE: BAKED POTATOES, TURNED UP – STACK NEWCASTLE
The Flaming Tattie takes the humble jacket potato and sets it on fire, quite literally. Every spud is oven-baked, fluffed with butter or garlic butter, then finished with flame-torched cheese for a golden, melty pull. There’s even a crispy chicken Parmo version, which Teessiders will appreciate.
For £6, you create your own tattie with two toppings of your choice, piled onto a fluffy, flame-torched spud.
TAN HILL INN PUB GRUB: YORKSHIRE COMFORT FOOD – ST. JAMES STACK
The Tan Hill Inn, famous as Britain’s highest pub, brings hearty Yorkshire pub grub down from the Dales to Newcastle. Proper stick-to-your-ribs cooking for the colder months.
For £6, tuck into the Yorkshire sausage bowl. A Yorkshire pudding filled with creamy mash, topped with a Swaledale curl sausage and finished with rich Tan Hill Inn gravy. Proper good food,
YOLO COFFEE & KITCHEN: A TOASTIE AND A BREW FOR £6 – ST. JAMES STACK AND STACK NEWCASTLE
YOLO does big brunches, stacked sourdough and towering pancakes, but at lunchtime, it’s all about the toastie.
Their £6 deal gets you any toastie plus a hot drink. Go for cheese and ham with caramelised red onion chutney, a tuna melt, sausage, beans and cheese, or BBQ pulled pork with mozzarella and cheddar, then pair it with a flat white or latte. Comfort food, sorted.
ZZA PIZZERIA: STONEBAKED AND CHEESY – ST. JAMES’ STACK AND STACK NEWCASTLE
ZZA keeps things simple with stone-baked bases, fluffy dough and gooey mozzarella, from a classic margherita to a hot honey chorizo with a proper kick.
The £6 lunch here is any small pizza, from a classic margherita to a hot honey chorizo for a proper kick.
CLUCKING OINKS: YORKSHIRE’S FRIED CHICKEN IN THE TOON – ST. JAMES’ STACK
Clucking Oinks has made the leap from a York food truck to the Toon, bringing its signature fried chicken with it, think buttermilk-fried strips in a range of seasonings, loaded fries, burgers and house-made dips.
The £6 lunch deal consists of any six chicken wings and fries, with five different flavours to choose from, so they’re guaranteed to have a wing you’ll love.
HOW TO GET YOUR £6 LUNCH AT STACK NEWCASTLE AND ST. JAMES’ STACK
There’s no voucher or app needed. Head to STACK Newcastle any weekday between 12pm and 3pm this autumn/winter, pick your trader and order the £6 deal. Bring your work mates and you’ll each be able to go somewhere different.
Meal deals have had their day.
