We were in Newcastle city centre and fancied a nice Sunday lunch and a pint and has been thinking of sampling the Earl of Pitt Street for a while, so gave it an impromptu visit.
The gastro-pub has built up quite a reputation in recent years and we soon realised that we were fortunate to walk in and get a table just before noon as several hopeful diners were turned away as it was fully booked once we were seated. So the first key message is make sure you book beforehand.
It is very rare that I can handle a three-course Sunday lunch but as soon as I saw the menu I felt I just had to check it out.
