Special Offers


Sitting in the far North East of England, the temperatures are a little colder and you can find this reflected in menus, with plenty of cosy British classics available, as well as warming curries at some of the UK’s finest curry houses. Newcastle has a fast-paced and innovative food scene, with the city recently gaining its first Michelin starred restaurant, along with a sprinkling of the guide’s acclaimed Bib Gourmands - something we think the Angel of the North would be proud of. In a destination that has also gained a reputation as a party destination, it’s no surprise that bottomless brunch in Newcastle is kind of a big deal! With clubs, pubs, restaurants and cafes all getting in on the bottomless action. A choice of chic hotels in Tyne and Wear also means you have plenty of choice when it comes to booking an elegant afternoon tea, complete with scones, finger sandwiches and Champagne. So whether you are looking for some casual dining or a 5-star restaurant, Newcastle has something to offer. Start exploring our restaurant directory to find your next restaurant booking in Newcastle.
