A Grade II listed building in Newcastle city centre that was once the home of Virgin Money is set to reopen as an upmarket steak house.
Work is underway to transform 2-6 Market Street into an Argentinian restaurant called Gaucho that claims to serve the "best quality steak in the world."
The new eatery is set to open in March and will be the chain's first restaurant in the North East. The Newcastle restaurant will be able to serve up to 140 people and will also offer two private dining rooms.
