Good to Know

Adam and Eve is an independent pub, restaurant and cocktail bar on Clayport Street, in a building that's been a pub under several names over the years. It reopened after a major refurbishment with some remarkable reclaimed details: flooring from an old Chivas whisky barrel house, lighting from American and Japanese warships, and wood panelling from old cattle barns.

Why it's on our list: it sets out to be a proper neighbourhood pub with a farm-to-table kitchen, cooking Northumberland meat and seafood to order, and it regularly appears in round-ups of the best places to eat and drink in Alnwick. There's also a terrace and garden for warmer days, and a serious whisky and cocktail list.

Worth knowing: it's closed early in the week, so check opening days, and book for Sunday lunch.

A Little Note From Heather & Sand

We haven't quite made it here ourselves yet, but it's on our list!

We're working our way around Northumberland, personally visiting and reviewing as many of the places featured in our Listed section as we can. It's a tough job, but somebody has to do it.

In the meantime, we do our homework. Before adding somewhere to Heather & Sand, we research it, look at what other visitors have to say and check that it has a good reputation. If the feedback isn't encouraging, it generally doesn't make our list.

Of course, a little online research is no substitute for muddy boots, a decent coffee and seeing somewhere for ourselves. So until we've visited, we'll leave the personal review to one side.

A little about us...

Heather & Sand is our little corner of Northumberland — a collection of places, stories, walks and discoveries from a county we love.

Through our Journal, Guide and Listed pages, we hope to help you discover somewhere new, revisit an old favourite or simply enjoy a little Northumberland from wherever you happen to be.
