Bawn Restaurant, Ponteland
Ten out of Eleven.
Famous for being one of the richest areas of the North East, but that doesn’t necessarily get you any good restaurants. In Ponteland you’ve got a few restaurants of Main Street, including the lovely Branches, but it’s no paradise. There’s a few nice cafes, but mostly cheap & cheerful Italian and Indian restaurants, meaning the rich & famous will just have to travel to the city centre for their food ?
Ten out of Eleven.
Update: Well that was short-lived. As of 18/9/14, head chef Glen has left The Blackbird. Shame!
