Magpie Room in 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.

Mi esposa y yo tuvimos la cena del domingo aquí por primera vez. No hace falta decir una fantástica vista de la cancha. La habitación y las mesas estaban muy bien dispuestas. El personal de Joe en la recepción de la habitación a las camareras era excelente y extremadamente agradable. La comida era excelente. Recomiendo encarecidamente una visita.

Seis de nosotros fuimos para el almuerzo del domingo, la comida y el servicio era muy bueno. El personal era muy amable y atento. La carne de costilla y la pechuga estaban perfectamente cocinadas y la porción era grande. Los entrantes fueron todos muy agradables al igual que los dulces, de nuevo las raciones eran buenas. Para colmo, tuvimos una breve gira dirigida por Joe (creo) que estaba muy bien informado. Todos haremos una visita de regreso en el futuro.

Acabo de tener el almuerzo del domingo con amigos. La comida era excelente y excelente servicio. Una buena elección, incluso podría tener un color rosado o bien hecho, lo cual es una ventaja. Los desiertos eran para morirse porque teníamos toffee y nuez pud con fresas y vainilla. Es un poco más caro que algunos lugares pero vale la pena el extra como un regalo.

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.

A brilliant atmosphere and the food amazing. Staff all friendly and hope to be back. It's wonderful to be in such a place and the surrounding grounds, all the famous people who have played here.

Another trip to the gourmet evening in the Magpie restaurant in St James Park. We have Been here many many times over the years. Service as usual was excellent, food fantastic, and wines to suit the various dishes were perfect. All this for £57.50 including the wine was great value for money. A must for all good food & wines lovers. The only thing I can fault was lack of atmosphere....not a bad thing, but smaller numbers this time had the venue lacking abit in atmosphere. May be just me, but my only very minor point to make. All told a great night out with friends who all enjoyed the evening. Will be booking again for the next Gourmet night.
