It was my birthday a few weeks ago, and what is a birthday without cake? Well, nothing (in my books!), so a friend and I booked to go and have afternoon tea at The Great British Cupcakery in Newcastle, which is just by the Quayside. I’d never visited before, but I follow them on InstagramContinue reading “Afternoon Tea at The Great British Cupcakery”

Let There Be Crumbs
My best friends are my girl cousins. We love to get together when we can, and since we’re now dotted around the country, it’s usually reserved for Christmas time and family events. Since we all grew up in South Shields, our usual meeting place is Minchellas by the sea front. However, this time I thoughtContinue reading “Let There Be Crumbs”
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)”

Beckleberry’s
We were so lucky to be invited to Beckleberry’s to sample their fabulous food and ice cream! There’s plenty of good reasons to go to the Metro Centre. Sometimes I go to shop, sometimes to watch a film, sometimes I go because it’s raining and I’d rather walk around indoors than try to get toContinue reading “Beckleberry’s”

Brocksbushes Farm
We were so lucky to be invited to Brocksbushes Farm for #farmhousebreakfastweek. Nothing says ‘breakfast’ better than a farmhouse breakfast. Ask anyone. If someone says “you know what… I’ve never had a farm house breakfast” then they need some serious culinary education. Luckily, Brocksbushes Farm provides all the education and deliciousness you could ever need. Located 5Continue reading “Brocksbushes Farm”
Mainsgill Farm Shop
If you are ever on an adventure down the A66 I highly suggest stopping at Mainsgill Farm Shop. It may be located right next to a busy road, but it is far from the average, greasy roadside stop-off that you make! As soon as you turn off and head inside, you will feel a warm,Continue reading “Mainsgill Farm Shop”
Olive & Bean
I’ve been putting off writing this review for ages and ages. Why? Because this is my most favourite place to have lunch in the whole of Newcastle. I love Olive & Bean so much (SO MUCH) that I feel my writing will not be able to convey and describe the love and delight I takeContinue reading “Olive & Bean”
Stairwayz Cafe
One day, I couldn’t be bothered to make lunch. That’s really lazy of me. However, MrJ suggested that we go to a cafe that he had seen on Low Fell high street. I declared to him that there was no little cafe there but he was adamant that he was right, so we went offContinue reading “Stairwayz Cafe”
