About The Market Tavern
The Market Tavern on Fenkle Street is Alnwick's go-to spot for a quality steak. The steakhouse menu features a range of cuts cooked to order, alongside pub classics, burgers, and a solid vegetarian selection. There is a good selection of real ales and the atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming — equally suited to a quick lunch or a proper evening out. The Tavern also operates as a lodge with comfortable rooms upstairs, making it a convenient base for exploring the town and surrounding countryside. Dog-friendly and family-friendly.
