Local guide
Running a café or coffee shop in Newcastle upon Tyne
Cafe trading in Newcastle upon Tyne brings together working-day routines and visits to the city. The Centre for Life sits by Central Station, while Grainger Town includes Grey's Monument and the Theatre Royal. Newcastle University adds an education setting to a city whose employment now includes substantial office and service work. A cafe's mix can range from takeaway coffee for someone travelling to a sit-down break between sightseeing stops.
For this trade, a small counter payment and a larger order arranged by phone need different handling. Teya Lite is a smaller card machine with digital receipts, while Teya Pro includes a printer for customers wanting paper. Pay by Link supports phone orders without requiring the customer to visit first. For contactless payments away from the counter, Tap to Pay works through the Teya app on an iPhone or Android phone.
Coffee near Central Station
A cafe near Central Station may serve customers carrying bags who want to pay using a phone rather than find a card. Teya Pro accepts Apple Pay and Google Pay as well as contactless and chip and PIN. The built-in receipt printer also suits a traveller who asks for a paper record.
A break in Grainger Town
Visitors stopping in Grainger Town may settle at their table rather than return to the serving counter. Staff can carry pocket-sized Teya Lite over to take payment. Its digital receipts make it an option for cafes that do not need a printer on the machine, with Wi-Fi and 4G available for connectivity.
Lunch ordered from an office
An office customer in Newcastle might phone a cafe with a lunch order for colleagues. Once the order is agreed, send a Pay by Link request by text or email. This separates the remote payment from collection, and the cafe can check the transaction in the Teya app or portal.

Questions from Newcastle upon Tyne cafés & coffee shops
Can my Newcastle cafe take contactless payments on a phone?
Yes. Tap to Pay uses the Teya app on an iPhone or Android phone, with no extra hardware. For a cafe serving Newcastle University customers or Grainger Town visitors, it is an option when taking contactless payment away from the usual counter.
Should a cafe near Central Station choose printed or digital receipts?
Choose around your customers' needs rather than the location alone. Teya Pro has a built-in receipt printer, useful when a Central Station traveller requests paper. Teya Lite has no printer and provides digital receipts in a smaller, pocket-sized machine.
Do you set up cafés & coffee shops in the Quayside, Ouseburn and Jesmond?
Yes. We quote for cafés & coffee shops anywhere in Newcastle upon Tyne, including the Quayside, Ouseburn and Jesmond, and across Tyne and Wear. Each quote is bespoke, based on your monthly card turnover.
