PJ’s American Diner in Newark is located just off St Marks Place on Clinton Arms Street (It also seems to be known as PJ’s American Coffee Bar). We popped in to see if they were the real deal or just another spot jumping on the Americana wagon. I have eaten in many such places in…

The Bromley at Fiskerton – Nice Pizza and a Great pub by the river for the rambler
The Bromley at Fiskerton was like a shining beacon as we reached it after a long walk from Lowdham. It was getting towards the end of the day. We had not eaten since Jo-hanna’s at 9.30am and it was basically getting towards 5pm when we finally reached this supposed midway point. I think we were…
The Real Burger Co in Newark, they sell burgers
The Real Burger Co in Newark is located on Castlegate (number 14 to be exact), right in the midst of the action on the High Street. On their website they say that they are the Home of Proper Burgers and “at the Real Burger Co, we love making burgers”. I suppose that is a good…
The Flying Circus Pub in Newark – Nice Spot with Local Beers

Newark Beer Festival – Beer, Burgers, Sausage Rolls, and Pork Pies
The Newark Beer and Cider Festival was held on the 26-28th May at the Riverside Park in, erm well surprisingly enough, in Newark. This was serious stuff, we even joined CAMRA beforehand so that we could get some extra tokens and stuff. More about that in a later post! 🙂 So anyway we popped along…
Mama White’s Pancake Parlour – Bacon and Maple Syrup Pancakes!
Mama White’s Pancake Parlour in Newark was a great find this weekend as we searched for “just a little something” to get us through the afternoon. Would you be surprised if I was about to relate a tale of a lunchtime in Newark when we ate a couple of platefuls of Pancake? I guess not,…
East Midlands Chilli Festival at Newark
This last weekend we ventured over to the outskirts of Newark to visit the East Midlands Chilli Festival 2014 at the Newark Showground. While we were looking for a little bit of heat to get our taste buds tingling, we were also hoping for some tasty street food and to meet some old foodie friends…

Camel Pie at the White Hart Restaurant in Newark
About a week or so ago I first encountered the delights of the White Hart Pub and Restaurant whilst on “a gentle bimble around the real ale watering holes of Newark upon Trent”. I had made a mental note to return to sample some of their food, and to assist in that aim I had left several…
A gentle bimble around the real ale watering holes of Newark upon Trent
With a long list of pubs to visit, open minds and empty stomachs we headed on the train over to Newark upon Trent to see what this fine town had to offer to a thirsty and marginally discerning pair of real ale drinkers. Today the hunt for food was a secondary occupation and was taking…
