Restaurants in Whitley Bay

A visit to the region would not be complete without sampling one of the many excellent dishes served at the local fish restaurants. Cod and Haddock are, perhaps, the most popular choice with diners and depending on the restaurant can be served in a variety of ways. The traditional British way of serving both cod and haddock is deep fried with french fries and peas. Nonetheless, some restaurants offer a twist on the traditional recipe and serve in rich tomato or cream sauces, particularly if you're dining at an Italian fish restaurant. In addition, freshly caught mussels and prawns often appear on the menu and can be served with salads or delicious sauces with pasta or rice.
