We were invited to try out Sohe‘s lunch menu last week. So I took my brother along so we could both escape uni revision for an hour or so. Here’s how we got on… J: There’s a lot that can be said for Osborne Road, the Jesmond street popular with just about anyone who enjoys aContinue reading “Sohe, Jesmond”

Quilliam Brothers
Quilliam Brothers has been at the top of my ‘must-visit’ places for some time now. It’s a teahouse with a very European, continental feel, and a home cinema in the basement. Located close to the Hancock Museum, it’s in a prime location for students, and extremely popular, judging by the queues sometimes waiting to be seated. Luckily,Continue reading “Quilliam Brothers”
The Botanist
The Botanist is the newest, sleekest eating and drinking establishment in the city centre, and it doesn’t get much more central by overlooking Grey’s Monument. I’d visited when it first opened for a press day with work, and gushed about how cool the interior looked. When their 50% January voucher appeared, I knew it hadContinue reading “The Botanist”
Jesmond Dene House – Festive Afternoon Tea
Thank you Jesmond Dene House for inviting Scobberlotch to try your festive afternoon tea. We’re big fans of yours already, and it was a lovely way of getting into the Christmas spirit! Merry Christmas to all our readers! A friend recommended the afternoon tea at Jesmond Dene House as the best she’d ever had, soContinue reading “Jesmond Dene House – Festive Afternoon Tea”
Dumpling & Bun
I love the Grainger Market. If someone asks me where they can get a quick bite for lunch, or where to pick up some groceries in town, or where to find a specialist item I haven’t heard of, my answer is always the same: You should go to the Grainger Market. One of my favourite placesContinue reading “Dumpling & Bun”
COOP Chicken House
MrJ and Will grabbed some lunch at COOP Chicken House. Thanks Will for doing a write-up for Scobberlotch! We planned on going to another Newcastle establishment this afternoon but unfortunately it was closed so we wandered round for a little bit before making an impromptu and spontaneous stop at COOP Chicken House on Collingwood Street.Continue reading “COOP Chicken House”
Revolution
I work just around the corner from Revolution in Newcastle, so when they got in touch and asked whether we wanted to try their new menu, I immediately said yes, and booked us a date for that week. I love the interior of Revolution. If it wasn’t a bar/restaurant it would make a great placeContinue reading “Revolution”
La Petite Creperie
UPDATE: La Petite Creperie is now closed in the Grainger Market. You’ll find them at the Newcastle Quayside Sunday Market, as well as pop-up street food events across the North East. We love La Petite Creperie – a delicious crepes and galettes shop in the Grainger Market run by two Julien and Fred. I wentContinue reading “La Petite Creperie”
The Living Room
I can’t believe that I’ve lived in Newcastle for so long and have never eaten at The Living Room. Needless to say, I loved it. We decided to go with another couple and take advantage of their Newcastle Restaurant Week offer a few weeks ago. It was a sunny Saturday afternoon, not like today withContinue reading “The Living Room”
Tea & Cake Planet (EAT! Event Part 1)
I love the EAT! events held by NewcastleGateshead Initiative. They get better and better (and more delicious) every year. Tea & Cake Planet is a great foodie event happening this weekend (Saturday 28th and Sunday 29th of June) at the Boiler Shop in Newcastle. So what’s it all about? Basically, there will be stalls &Continue reading “Tea & Cake Planet (EAT! Event Part 1)”
