The region’s best restaurants have been recognised by Michelin for 2023.
Among the restaurants included in the annual list are the two-star Raby Hunt in Summerhouse; Northumberland’s Hjem and Pine – which also retained its green star rating; and Newcastle’s House of Tides, all of which retained their ratings from 2022. Meanwhile, Kenny Atkinson’s second Newcastle venue – Solstice – received its first one-star rating.
A total of 20 new one-star awards were presented in the guide, four new Michelin green stars and three new two-star awards. While Michelin now updates its listings monthly, the publishing of the annual list is still a huge highlight in the food calendar.
A total of 188 restaurants in the UK hold at least one Michelin Star. There are 160 one-star restaurants, 20 two-star restaurants and just eight three-star restaurants in the UK.
