Christmas Tree 4779 Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Spent a good hour looking for el Coto on the quayside tonight! Nice pint in the brewdog and scotch eggs at Broad Chare . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christmas Tree 4779 Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 El Coto. Tried to book the Old Siam but no tables til late so decided to go for Gemmils recommendation of El Coto on the Quayside. Parked outside of some Gentlemans club and then headed next door to the Brew Dog pub. Tried the IPA Punk which was ok and our lass had the cherry coke which was tremendous. Then headed off down the quayside in search of El Coto and having no luck, ended up in the broad chare for a drink, some scotch eggs and some scrumles / scrumptions??? (Lamb and cheese in breadcrumbs with a vinegar dip). Headed off again in search of El Coto only to be accosted by a lady of the night asking for money to get home. Eventually made it back to the car having finally resorted to google and discovering that El Coto had moved to Leazes Park. The service and more importantly, the food, were superb. Our lass still preferred La Tasca and there are definitely some very nice Tapas La Tasca does that El Coto doesnt. That said and having been to both, I would compare La Tasca to an all you can eat chinese buffet and El Coto to the Neptune or Landmark. Hard to pick a favourite but the honey and mustard sauce on the potatoes was delicious. 9/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkeys Fist 42842 Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Two thumbs up for the Biscuit Factory after a smashing lunch there yesterday. Utterly gorgeous pork belly. (See, Fisty, don't say I never pay you any compliments. The food was canny too) Just seen this, cheeky bitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christmas Tree 4779 Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 I do wonder however if Newcastle is attracting a few too many stag and hen parties and turning into a bit of a Blackpool / Scarborough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tooj 17 Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 There's about 4 pubs in Scarborough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tooj 17 Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Plus if you actually drink in decent places (or just avoid The Gate or Quayside) you will never run into a stag or a hen party. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayatollah Hermione 13968 Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Aye, last few times I've been out, I've avoided them entirely. The Gate btw It's getting even fucking worse if that's possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meenzer 15674 Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 The Tapas bar on Leazes Road round the corner from SJP, used to be Barn Again, is very good. The alternative you're thinking of is an excellent choice though - El Coto it's called I think. I'm off to a Spanish tapas bar for my sister's birthday this week, and I don't really know what to expect, having never been to one before. So, are they any good? I'm going to El Coto, next to SJP. The Spanish restaurant is nice, opposite the good Bagladeshi, where Barn Again was. El Coto? Was good last time i was there. El Coto (Tapas) next to the Hyena Comedy Club You should have gone to El Coto or the one that's on the way down to the quayside man. I've always found La Tasca to be pretty disappointing, particularly in comparison to these other places. IF ONLY THERE WERE SOME WAY OF KNOWING IN WHICH PART OF TOWN EL COTO IS LOCATED :panic: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
