Read on for our guide of restaurants and bars to try near St James' Park stadium:

Sports bars and top pubs...

NINE Sports Bar and Lounge at St James' Park couldn't be closer to the action and is an ideal place to stop for a hearty meal or pick apart the highs and lows of the game over a pint.

Earl of Pitt Street is a quirky, independent pub which oozes atmosphere literally spitting distance from St James' Park. You'll find an eclectic menu at The Earl of Pitt Street including your classic Sunday roast dinners and dishes you'd expect from a gastropub as well as inventive Asian-fusion creations.

Bealim House is Newcastle's only working, in-house gin still and therefore it is a must to try their gin when you visit. The pub is on Gallowgate which forms the main thoroughfare from Newcastle's city centre to the stadium. Make sure you book in advance if you want to eat at Bealim House on a match day or after a major event.
