River Bar – Fatfield, Washington

River Bar – Fatfield, Washington

Sitting gazing out of the windows of the River Bar, sipping a cocktail from a jam jar and tucking in to barbecued meat, you’d be excused for thinking you were sitting  in backwater USA. On the banks of the River Wear in Fatfield, the hottest place to be in Washington is bringing a laid back American smokehouse vibe to the North East.

Part of the Cairn Group colossus, the River Bar shares an impressive line up alongside Sohe, 97 & Social and Fiume, the Italian eatery that sits neatly above the Washington bar.

Once only a mainstay with residents, the brunch brings in a whole new clientele looking to fill their plates with foodie perfection without emptying their wallets.

Social dining has really taken off in Newcastle of late and brunch is fast moving up the popularity ranks of places to go and be seen – only here is it acceptable to have a cocktail with your scrambled eggs!
