The Gosforth Hotel is a quintessential local pub nestled on the bustling high street, with its heart firmly set on two things: live sports and exceptional local cask ale. Each lunchtime is a vibrant affair, brimming with affordable, top-quality pub grub. This pub takes immense pride in our extensive cask ale selection, which showcases an impressive array of brews hailing from both local and national breweries. Among the regional favourites, you'll find beloved names like Mordue, Wylam, Tyne Bank, Consett, and Cullercoats.
For those with a taste for adventure when it comes to your tipple, the pub also features brews from farther afield, including offerings from Leeds, York, Scotland, and the Borders, Ossett, and Houston. The best part? You can enjoy these exceptional brews starting at an incredibly affordable price, with pints beginning at just £2.45.
The menu kicks off with a delightful array of small plates to whet your appetite. Dive into a plate of hunter's chips, generously piled with succulent chicken, crispy bacon, melted cheese, and a drizzle of BBQ sauce. Or, perhaps the crispy satisfaction of beer-battered onion rings and tender scampi, perfectly accompanied by tartare sauce. If you're sharing with friends, the foot-long nachos are a crowd-pleaser, crowned with gooey cheese, spicy jalapeños, salsa, guacamole, sour cream, and a sprinkle of fresh spring onions.
For the main course, the menu is equally as pleasant. Enjoy a grilled gammon steak crowned with a free-range fried egg and pineapple, served alongside a side of beer-battered onion rings. Opt for a plant-based delight with a three bean chilli burger, featuring a blend of soya and Violife cheese. And, if you're craving some heat, the cluckin' hot chicken served with Carolina Reaper sauce is sure to satisfy your spice cravings.
When it comes to drinks, you'll find a wealth of options to quench your thirst. Sip on a perfectly blended pink gin and lemonade, or enjoy a double measure of Coca-Cola and Kraken, garnished with a zesty lime. For those looking to make it a memorable night, don't miss the 2-4-1 cocktail deal, whether you're ordering individual glasses or sharing pitchers.
