With a population of over 700,000, the metropolitan city of Newcastle has a fantastic mix of cultures and is far from dowdy and provincial. Cosmopolitan speciality dining is as you'd expect, a very special part of that ethnically diverse background.
You are never far from speciality dining in the Newcastle area. As a major centre for commerce since Roman times, Newcastle has every reason to be at the forefront of speciality dining. It stands near the border with Scotland and has a port at North Shields. Joined to the UK arterial road and rail systems and with an International airport, Newcastle is garnished with flavors from the four corners of the world.
Speciality dining encompasses the more unusual dining experiences that some you may have tried already. The popularity of organic foods continues to rise, and with it, organic and vegetarian cuisine. Quality fresh fruit, vegetables, meat, game, fish and poultry are all within easy reach of the city.
Fresh sea food is one of the advantages of being sited on the North East coast. Craster kippers, herring, trout, lobster and oysters are all local to Newcastle and with a local tradition of brewing you will have a great choice of beer, or fine wine from further afield, to accompany any dish.
The breadth of speciality dining in Newcastle is as wide as your imagination. While out shopping or out for some evening entertainment you will find everything from Japanese, Polish, Vietnamese, Greek, Italian and Spanish restaurants, to piano bars, karaoke bars and tapas bars. In recent years there has been an enormous growth in premium restaurants and top chefs in Newcastle, as well as interest in local speciality dishes.
Be tempted by a different speciality dining experience every time you go out with this selection of the best from Newcastle restaurants.
