Savor the culinary spirit of Newcastle on this "bite-seeing" tour, where every stop serves up a delicious taste of the city's coastal charm and creative food scene.
Local flavors influenced by a touch of culinary whimsy are found in Newcastle's thriving laneways, historic streetscapes, and award-winning eateries.
Your gourmet adventure begins with a truly indulgent treat — a golden spanner crab donut, delicately crisp on the outside with sweet, ocean-fresh crab within.
Next, enjoy freshly shucked local oysters, plucked from pristine regional waters and bursting with briny elegance.
Satisfy your savory side with two modern twists on a classic — fluffy potato scallops and a fragrant Vietnamese banh mi packed with local ingredients and bold flavors.
Along the way, discover how Newcastle's artisan food scene pairs beautifully with its craft brewing culture. You'll sample a local beer matched with an unexpected sweet treat.
And no culinary journey would be complete without something cool and creamy. Pause for a scoop of handcrafted gelato made with premium local ingredients.
With a few playful surprises kept under the cloche, this tour is as much about discovery as it is about indulgence. Your passionate local guide will share behind-the-scenes stories and insights into the city's food culture, ensuring a truly memorable and flavor-filled experience.
Come hungry, leave delighted, and fall in love with Newcastle, one bite at a time.
