Paying upwards of £10 for a meal from a food van in a car park probably might raise a few eyebrows, especially with the current cost of living crisis showing no signs of abating.
However, Bamburgh's Creel and Reel Seafood Trailer is no ordinary food van. With all but one of its 17 TripAdvisor reviews giving it five stars, it's a popular lunch spot just south of the village named the best seaside destination in Britain.
Offering seafood prepared right in front of you and spectacular views of the village's castle, customers come from all over the place - even in just the short time I was there on a drizzly Wednesday afternoon. Just ahead of me in the queue, a Belgian father and son were having a pit stop ahead of their trip back to the continent on the ferry later that day.
