I have experienced St James's Park on a matchday on multiple occasions, and it has always been a very accommodating place for fans. I thought it would be interesting to see what else this iconic stadium had to offer, so when I was given the chance to go to the Park Grill restaurant and try their exclusive taster menu during the city's popular Restaurant Week, I couldn't turn it down.
When we arrived at the restaurant, which is situated at the Leazes end of the stadium, we got a drink at the bar and then had time to have a nice relax before we were taken to our seats. The first thing we noticed was the spectacular view of the pitch, which was perfectly visible through the panelled windows, making this a fantastic dining setting,
After surveying the menu, we decided to pay the extra £20 supplement for the fifth course, the Northumberland rump steak. This comes as an add on to the original £20 price, as well as a cheese and fruit selection and a wine with every course, which I decided not to get as I needed to remember what I thought of the food to write this review.
