The Forge Inn Ulgham Near Morpeth

The restaurant has been around for years and their menu has remained unchanged. The decor is in need of a refresh and it's sad to see it in decline compared to its former glory. However, the food is consistently well-cooked.

I was curious as to why such a charming pub in a beautiful village appeared to be closed, with most of the signs pointing to recent events. However, I soon discovered the reason. I had to pick up a golfer for the first time and my GPS had led me to the wrong location. As I parked in a spacious empty lot to make a phone call, I was suddenly approached by a man who seemed to be fixated and agitated, resembling an angry Jeremy Corbyn. He demanded that I leave immediately, despite my attempts to explain my situation. Fortunately, my call went through and I received directions for my pick up. As I left, I thanked the man for his unexpected encounter.

If I could give this establishment less 5 stars, I would. I have lived many years ago to this place and it's just terrible. I count the days until it changes the property and is taken over by some really pleasant people. it is...absolutely wasted in the hands of his current owners. it's pretty much open a day in the week, the owners aren't kind at all. the beer is terrible. that eating is terrible and there is a particularly evil little clique of individuals who come in addition to this (not all ndividuals, but a certain group of them) so that the atmosphere is not at all pleasant. if they drive their car so much into the parking lot, the evil owner is thrown out of his pub and tries to chase them off. it does not play any role, whether it is a need and must pull over them are not welcome. If you think about going in, just go by. I would recommend trying the widddrington inn (in widdrington village) instead, or the junction (in widdrington station) if they are looking for a drink or something to eat in this opposite. just don't stop at the forge.

We went for a Sunday lunch and it was really good. The service from the waitress was excellent. We can't wait to go back.

We had a delightful Sunday lunch at a charming little dining room. The pate was delicious, the main courses were cooked perfectly, and the Border tart was superb. The restaurant is only open on Friday and Saturday evenings and for Sunday lunch.
