Warkworth
I could probably lick my way around Northumberland, ice cream by ice cream.
This place is well worth the calories. Morwick Dairy
 

Whitley Bay, Cullercoats and Tynemouth.
Each place is deserving of their own dedicated guides, these seaside residential towns are the best kept secret of life in the North East of England. Each town has some excellent foodie opportunities-
 
Fish and Chips (naturally)
Pantrinis, the local contender, Trenchers, from Whitby but well situated in the renovated Spanish City, or Marshalls in Tynemouth, about as old school as it gets.
 
Ice cream
from Di Meo’s in Whitley Bay
 
Pan Asian from Omni

Sustainable, ethical, locally sourced, micro restaurant seats no more than 20, The Roxburgh will impress you.

Coffee from Cullercoats Coffee or from Tynemouth’s own roastery Tynemouth Coffee
 
Fish from King Edwards Bay, Tynemouth
Riley’s Fish Shack has been featured by Rick Stein and Jay Rayner. Wood fired fish perfection.
 
If you don’t feel like fish on the beach, they’ve brought the whole thing up a notch in Riley’s Fish Shop. Excellent.
 
Longsands Fish Kitchen deserves the accolades
 
The View, for brunch, lunch or early dinner with a sea view of Tynemouth Longsands

Hexham and Into Northumberland
Hjem for Scandi cuisine, you will not find any better food in this part of the world.
 
Langley Castle for some posh nosh in a traditional setting.
