Light Years, Newcastle

We are open almost every day of the year with the main closure being Christmas day! Please note, a weekend surcharge of 10% applies on Saturdays and Sundays, and 15% on public holidays. All credit cards incur a 1.5% surcharge.

While we recommend reserving your table in advance, we always leave a handful of seats aside for walk-ins. Note, these spaces tend to favour two seaters during the busier periods.

Light Years Newcastle is both wheelchair and disability friendly. The wheelchair accessible restroom located on the left hand side of our rest room. Feel free to give us a call for further information or on arrival request assistance from our hosts. We also recommend making a note of any specific needs at the time of your booking so we can prepare your table in advance.

Sadly we don’t have outside seating to cater for our four legged friends.

For special occasions and milestone celebrations we have multiple seating areas suitable for groups large and small. View the group dining for more info.

There is paid parking on both Darby Street and the surrounding streets of Light Years Newcastle. 

We love a celebration! Cakes are welcome, we do not charge a cake cutting fee. If you are looking to bring in decorations such as florals please discuss this in advance with the venue directly.

No confetti or glitter is permitted in the venue.

For tables of 20 or more guests you will be required to dine on the ‘Premium Selection’ banquet menu only.

Children under 12 are exempt from the banquet and welcome to dine from the kid’s menu. However, they are still included in the total number of guests. For example, a table of 8, including 2 children, the adults will still be required to select from the banquet menus.
