High quality pubs and pubs serving really great food are becoming increasingly popular in the city but the original Newcastle ‘gastropub’ is still the very best. The Broad Chare’s Scotch Egg is everything you could want while relaxing in a proper pub: salty, savoury, satisfying and best washed down with a quality beer. Add some brown sauce on the side or the house-made piccalilli. Bar snacks just don’t come better than this.
