Eat & Drink
What are you hungry for? An American-style burger with all the add-ons? A delectable vegetarian feast? Fish and chips by the sea or exquisite Indian spices?
Whatever your tastes, and whether you're after an extra-special dinner, a tasty takeaway or a quick lunch on the go, our huge choice of restaurants, cafés, bars, takeout kitchens and pubs will see you more than satisfied. We've got Sunderland chefs conjuring seasonal British specialities from fresh local produce, and others bringing mouthwatering inspiration from all over the globe - Italy, China, Vietnam, Indonesia...not to mention oh-so-moreish Parisian-style patisserie.
Celebrate your shopping successes with a cuppa and cake in a café with character, and bring on the weekend with a craft beer or freshly mixed cocktail in your new favourite bar. Choose a cosmopolitan city venue or dine by the sea on the catch of the day.
We do family-friendly, vegan-friendly, dog-friendly...you'll notice a theme here! Wherever you choose, our signature North-East hospitality is always on the menu.
