Tack & Whistle pop-up shipping container restaurant opens in Exhibition Park, Newcastle

A pop-up restaurant serving three-course meals has opened in a Newcastle park.

The Tack & Whistle, built from shipping containers, has moved to Exhibition Park, Newcastle after a sell-out run in Earsdon, North Tyneside.

It offers a three-course menu, which is revised every few weeks, priced at £24.99 per diner, including a complimentary glass of prosecco on arrival.

An attached beer garden offers draught beer and cider, fresh cocktails, bar snacks and live music on Fridays and Saturdays.

The Tack & Whistle will be open in Exhibition Park for a month.
