Make sure to sample fine local meats and produce. Look for restaurants that serve game from the Kielder Forest, local lamb from the hillsides, salmon and trout from the rivers, and shellfish, crab, and oysters from the coast. Outside the cities, the region lags somewhat behind other parts of England in terms of good places to eat, although there are special spots to be found. Aside from the ubiquitous chains, the best bets are often small country pubs that serve the traditional, hearty fare associated with the region. Don't wait until 9 pm to have dinner, though, or you may have a hard time finding a place that’s still serving.
A nicely old-fashioned air pervades this 17th-century building on the main square. Drop in for a tasty light lunch, or just a slice of cake, and tea served from an antique silver pot. It also has a pleasant little housewares and gift shop attached.
29 Market Pl., Barnard Castle, Durham, DL12 8NE, England
This pretty stone-built pub-hotel is one of the region's best (and best value) dining options. The delicately flavored and beautifully presented dishes, from cured sea trout with cucumber salsa to lamb rump with potato terrine and wild garlic, would seem more at home in a fine-dining restaurant than a village pub if it weren't for the remarkably low prices. A three-course lunch will set you back just £21. More regular pub dishes, like fish-and-chips and beef burgers, are also available, and also far better than you'd expect for the prices. Too full to move? Book yourself into one of the seven well-appointed rooms upstairs.
Station Rd., Greenhead, Northumberland, CA8 7HG, England
The snug bar and restaurant of this remote, peaceful, 17th-century pub make an excellent place to dine. Fine local meat goes into its famous savory pies—take your pick from the likes of wild boar and duckling—while the unfussy menu also features such staples as fish-and-chips, Whitby scampi, and lasagna with garlic bread. Two cottages are available for rent. The inn is 3½ miles east of Greenhead on the B6318.
B6318, Haltwhistle, Northumberland, NE49 9NN, England
Aside from the punny name, this fine restaurant, in the upscale suburb of Jesmond, hits all the right notes, with chef Dave Coulson serving up delicious, flavor-packed, and beautifully presented dishes. Choose from a selection of seasonal tasting menus that make the most of fresh local produce; the eight-course tasting menu is the best value option. The interior is colorful and airy, and the waitstaff is friendly and attentive—in fact, you might struggle to catch your breath between servings of bread, drinks, endless amuse bouches, and regular courses.
