FIKA Gallery – Art gallery, café and workshop studio, Morpeth
Located in the heart of historic Morpeth town centre, FIKA Gallery is a vibrant cultural destination where art, coffee and community come together. This independent gallery and café is a must-visit for locals and visitors alike, offering a welcoming space to explore contemporary art, enjoy delicious food and drinks, and get involved in creative activities.
The draw: The gallery showcases contemporary work from leading and up-and-coming artists across Northumberland and the North East, with pieces to buy for the home ranging from £50 to £5,000. The 52-seat café serves smooth Italian coffee, baked goods and brunch alongside fine wines, and is dog friendly with takeaway available too. Beyond browsing and brunching, FIKA’s dedicated studio runs a genuinely varied events calendar, from watercolour and gouache workshops and hand-tied bouquet making to sculpt-and-sip evenings and live jazz nights, with kids’ sessions like magical creature drawing thrown in, and the space is also available for private hire.

Hours:

Vibe check: Creative, sociable and unpretentious, somewhere between a proper gallery and a favourite local café. Great for a slow coffee and browse, a gift hunt for original art, or booking onto a workshop with friends for something different to do together.
