For decades, the Northumbrian Piper has remained one of Gosforth’s best kept secrets, serving as a welcoming watering hole for residents of the town’s Red House Farm Estate and the surrounding areas. But now the word is officially out and discerning diners from across the region are discovering the culinary treasures of this stunning, hidden gem. Nestling in its own tree-lined garden, close to the A1, the Northumbrian Piper combines all the conveniences of the contemporary city with a unique country-style feel, perfect for a relaxing get-together with family and friends or an uninterrupted business lunch. Re-launched by its owners John and Lynne Griffin earlier this year, this historic venue now offers home cooking at its absolute best, with a mouthwatering menu of traditional favourites and modern cuisine, combining effortlessly to cater for all tastes and occasions. We serve Sunday Lunch from 12.00 noon and scored 18 out of 20 for it in the Sunday Sun review from Eddy Eats. Starters on offer range from oriental-style Thai fish cakes to the popular potato wedges with bacon and cheese, while the comforting main courses cover everything from beef lasagne and sirloin steak, to Mexican chilli con carne and Thai green chicken curry. The Northumbrian Piper also has a complete snack menu, including beef burgers, jacket potatoes and hot or cold sandwiches served in fresh bread. And for younger customers, the venue offers a special children’s menu, with a choice of five main meals and an ice-cream dessert for just £3.95.
