Peregrine — Restaurant in Newcastle upon Tyne

I would certainly recommend this place for food. I've now visited for breakfast and lunch, both times I found the service staff very attentive and helpful. The food was cooked fresh and very tasty. The only thing I would change is the eggs on the breakfast, they were hard and overdone, we were offered fresh ones though. But, because we had already started eating, we did not want to stop to wait for eggs or end up eating them after finishing everything else. I'd recommend asking for runny yolks at the point of ordering. Both times visiting, the outside of the pub hasn't been very clean so this can be off putting. Glasses, cigarette butts and rubbish has been left on tables and strewn around, it looked like this could be from the night before. Inside was clean and tidy. I think it would be nice, in places like this, to have a "with children" side or designated seating area. When we visited, on the lunch time, there were 3 children running wild bumping into chairs, tables and people. Then 1 screamed the place down when they hurt themselves. It's unfortunate that the parents/carers don't pay more attention or take more responsibility, but, such is life and times. It's certainly not the pubs fault. Be aware that although it looks like you can book a table from 8:30am on the Hungry Horse Web site, the pub doesn't actually open until 10am. It's easy to access from the A1, A69 route and has ample parking (although it seems local residents and builders use the carpark), you can see the pub from the main road. Overall I would've given a score of 4, but the outside is a bit dreary, to use the side door closest to the carpark you have to walk past the cigarette bin, and the wild kids spoiled the atmosphere. Apart from these things it's worth a visit for the food. Next time I'll try the...

Went for breakfast on 10/11/21. Ordered and asked if I wanted to add black pudding onto breakfast for 79p, I said yes. My partner ordered a bacon sandwich. Waited around 15 min for food, it was really quiet as it was before midday. My food came out , eggs overdone the rest of my food was greasy and the sausages were warm and the bacon borderline. I asked for soft eggs as don't see the point in having toast without a dippy yoke. The server left me with the breakfast and went to get 2 eggs, they came in a few minutes on a plate that was swimming in grease. The server did not return and I had an issue with the black pudding as it looked undercooked and was jelly like as you can see in the photo. The beans came in a tiny ramekin and the tomato was not cooked , it was like a raw tomato. The last time I had a breakfast it was really greasy too. I had no check back and we left feeling disappointed as my partners sandwich was overdone too. I just won't go back for...

I had a great lunch with my daughter. The ‘Build your own Wrap’ was very good value. The service from the friendly Laura was excellent.

The service from Carol at the bar was less so. She appeared more keen to serve a group of people who were about to go on holiday than me. All but one of them had arrived at the bar after me. In the end, to avoid being ignored any any longer or having to listen to her reminiscing about Mexico, I moved around the bar to be served by someone else. Thankfully this was straight away.

Overall the food and drink- plus service by Laura- were great. She should be serving at the bar- excellent customer service skills. I would recommend this pub- although it gets very lively at night and- be prepared to wait for Carol- unless you’re wearing shorts and have...
