Planning a trip to Newcastle (for when restrictions ease)? 😀 On a guided tour with @underground_epicureans you will enjoy some of the best places to eat in the city. 🍴 Visit the cafe that started the Newcastle food journey, enjoy soul food made with locally harvested ingredients, beers brewed right here in the city, award-winning Japanese, real Italian gelato, and the most amazing sandwiches. 😃 Along the way, you’ll discover stories behind the architecture, art and culture influencing the city’s journey of change and meet the locals. 🍴 Sounds delicious, right? . . . 📹 by the very clever @davidgriffen for @underground_epicureans . . . @goldbergscoffeehouse @nagisa_japanese @foghorn_brewery @kingstreetdeli @chieflysandwiches @popologelateria @momowholefood #newcastlensw #newcastleaustralia #australia #holidayherethisyear #lovensw @visitnsw @australia #whoknewcastle #seeaustralia #newsouthwales #adventuretime #theprettycities #visitnsw #visitnewcastle

Coffee. We love it. ☕ @hionu_ captured this moody coffee shot at @neighboursonmarketst recently*...now who's ready for their morning coffee, albeit takeaway? ☕ Start planning a trip to Newcastle (for when restrictions ease) to check out the many local cafes and shops in the CBD too, like @groundfloorcafe, @kafeycafe, @baggasnewcastle, @ink_food_ and @aliejanetravelaccessories 😃 * this photo was taken before the current stay-at-home order. . . . #visitnewcastle #visitnsw #shoplocal #cafeculture #morningcoffee #newcastlensw #newcastleaustralia #australia #holidayherethisyear #lovensw @visitnsw @australia #whoknewcastle #seeaustralia #newsouthwales #adventuretime #theprettycities

The Bathers Way is absolutely s-t-u-n-n-i-n-g. The 6km walk hugs the coastline and offers incredible views over the ocean and the city - on a clear day you can see all way to Worimi Conservation Lands and the Hunter Valley. 😀 One of the main highlights is the 450m elevated ANZAC Memorial Walk, which was opened in 2015 to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the ANZAC landing in Gallipoli. As well as honouring the sacrifices made by Australian soldiers during World War I, this date also marks the commencement of steel making in Newcastle; the ANZAC memorial walk was built using 64 tonnes of stainless steel for this very reason. 😃 Thanks @nicholas.walther for sharing this great shot of the ANZAC Memorial Walk recently. . . . #visitnsw #visitnewcastle #newcastlensw #newcastleaustralia #australia #holidayherethisyear #lovensw @visitnsw @australia #whoknewcastle #seeaustralia #newsouthwales #adventuretime #theprettycities

It is impossible to get very far in Newcastle without stumbling upon street art. The city is filled with stunning murals that inspire and add colour to our streetscape (and our daily walks). 🎨 Thanks to @stevefromnewy for the pic of this beauty by @inari______ opposite @uni_newcastle City Campus. 🎨 To take in some of the city's top spots on your next trip, be sure to check @thebigpicturefest walking trail (head to the itineraries link in our bio). . . . #yourcityourcanvas @newcastleafoot #streetart #publicart #newcastlensw #newcastleaustralia #australia #bigpicturefest #holidayherethisyear #lovensw @visitnsw @australia #whoknewcastle #seeaustralia #newsouthwales #adventuretime @inari______ #theprettycities #visitnsw #visitnewcastle

We meant to post this photo yesterday but discovered that the whole @boltonstpantry menu is available for pickup and delivery so we've been busy eating this French Toast ten times over and are only getting around to posting this now. 🍴 If you live a bit further afield, no worries....put 👏 this 👏 on 👏 your 👏 list for when restrictions ease and you can visit in person.
