Spot Gate Inn.

Couldn't find a thread for the Spotgate so created a new one.

We went yesterday for my son's birthday lunch.

We all had starters, the Sunday lunch, desserts and coffees.

The food was really good and the relaxed atmosphere in the train carriages made for a really enjoyable afternoon. The chairs are comfy but there's a danger of having a snooze with the amount of food consumed

The Sunday lunch was c£13 which was very reasonable but if you add drinks, starters and desserts it can get a bit expensive. Still it was a special occasion and everyone enjoyed it.

Would recommend.

Oh and just for @Mudgie the real ale was Theakston's XB.

But, there's not much and it's so old it might as well be in Latin.

That's often on in Hogarths, but last Tuesday it was Marstons Pedigree and Lymestone Stone Faced.
And Pedigree in the Newcastle Hogarths on Saturday.

Ah I was searching for the Spotgate.

There are a few other old comments scattered about in various threads, but a current one seems a good idea.

I haven't been there since the 1970s...

As I recall, it was the Spot Gate Inn at Spot Acre

That's how I've always known it, not that I've often used the pub.
