Newcastle Businesses That Can Help You Celebrate St. George’s Day

Last updated:

To celebrate St. George’s Day this Friday, we’ve picked out seven of our favourite, traditionally English, things to do in NE1…

PICNIC IN THE PARK >>

A picnic in the park is a much-loved English tradition. This April 23, make a stop at Fenwick Food Hall, stock up on your favourite picnic bites including fresh bakes from the Artisan Bakery along with heart-warming pies and mouth-watering quiches from the Delicatessen Counter. Once your basket is full, gather your bubble of six and head for Leazes Park. Perfect day out!

AFTERNOON TEA >>

Rally the troops and hunker down for a spot of afternoon tea at Leila Lily’s. There’s nothing more quintessentially English than sipping on tea and nibbling on finger sandwiches. Guests can dine out on the outdoor terrace and tuck into a menu bursting with flavour. Think poached salmon and cucumber sandwiches, scrumptious quiches, crumbly scones and plenty of sweet treats. All of that, plus plenty of veggie options to ensure a traditional afternoon tea is covered for everyone.

FISH & CHIPS >>

The foodie tradition that just keeps on giving. If you’re looking to tuck into some tasty fish and chips this St. George’s Day, then look no further than Clayton Street Chippy. Nestled in the heart of Newcastle, these fish frying experts are providing us Geordie folk with some seriously delicious grub. Go here for gorgeous cod wrapped in a crunchy batter, accompanied with fluffy chips and covered in lashings of gravy, curry, tomato ketchup or whatever your go-to sauce is.
