Magpie Room - Newcastle upon Tyne

Had a great lunch in the Magpie club today. It was lunch with Santa. We had really good food and I loved the pink roast beef. The Santa experience was nice too. The service was also lovely it felt like lots of the servers were new to it. So I mention these things as a little more polish would help. Four examples; table was set for bread but no bread was served and we had to ask for ours after the starters were delivered. Other tables were then sorted as a consequence. Second, we ordered tap water for the table with our drinks order and had to ask again at main course (the server was most apologetic). Third the menu said garlic bread with cheese as a kids starter and we got garlic bread. I pointed it out and all garlic breads after that were then cheesy. We ordered a cheese course and it came without biscuits a knife or butter. These things didn’t spoil our experience in the slightest but if they were sorted then it would have been a much smoother experience. We will definitely be back as the food, ambience, service and experience were all good.

My wife and I enjoyed our first Sunday dinner here. The view of the golf course was fantastic. The room and tables were beautifully arranged. The staff, from Joe at the front desk to the waitresses, were exceptional and very friendly. The food was superb. I would highly recommend visiting this restaurant.

Six of us went for Sunday lunch, the food and service was very good. The staff were very friendly and attentive. The rib eye beef and brisket were perfectly cooked and the portion were large. The starters were all very nice as were the sweets, again the portions were good. To top it all off we had a short tour conducted by Joe (I think) who was very knowledgable. We will all be making a return visit in the future.

Just had Sunday lunch with friends. Food was superb and excellent service. Good choice you could even have beef pink or well done which is a bonus. Deserts were to die for we had toffee and pecan pud with strawberry and vanilla custard. It’s a bit dearer than some places but worth the extra as a treat.

Went with the wife for Sunday Lunch, the food was very good and all of the staff were so friendly, service was prompt. Good quantity and quality of food and great backdrop.
