The Perfect Way To Start The Day

Issue 47

Horton Grange Country House Hotel continue their commitment to being a destination venue with a sterling breakfast menu also available to non-residents.

The handsome Horton Grange Country House Hotel is well positioned for commuters with easy transport links to the A1 and Newcastle and is also perfect for those who prefer meeting away from the hustle & bustle of the city centre. The hotel stands in close proximity to Newcastle Airport which also makes it a great option for meeting those travelling from out of town.

With ample free parking on site, the hotel is easily accessible so I decided to meet my son Jack for a spot of deadline day breakfast. Now talk about starting the day off right. After a warm reception, we were shown to a window table with pleasant views across the hotel’s sun-dappled lawns. Breakfast is served in the tastefully-appointed breakfast room with a selection of continental goodies on the buffet.

This includes a choice of fruit juices – five to be precise, orange, grapefruit, cranberry, apple and pineapple – not to mention a range of cereals. Guests are also given the choice of freshly-baked mini Danish pastries and preserves including strawberry jam, marmalade and honey.

We also tucked into a basket of fresh toast- white or wholemeal – and a piping hot pot of tea and coffee respectively.

Horton Grange Country House Hotel has swerved a cooked buffet in favour of a selection of cooked-to-order dishes which ensures everything is freshly prepared. Its menu offers plenty of choice and also offers a vegetarian option with quorn sausages.

The full “Horton Grange Breakfast” looked inviting as did the Eggs Benedict whilst those with a sweet tooth can enjoy pancakes or toasted teacakes with a choice of toppings. Jack however chose the Eggs Royale – smoked salmon and poached egg atop a toasted muffin with gloopy Hollandaise sauce.

The new health-conscious yours truly opted for a plate of smoked salmon, smartly presented with lemon wedge and chives and showered with pepper. Delicious!

Throughout our meal, the service was slick and attentive meaning we were free to leave and resume our day without delay. For those looking for a quality breakfast experience, look no further than Horton Grange Country House Hotel.
