A STEAKHOUSE has announced a new business venture after closing its Northumberland location.

Tomahawk Steakhouse, in Ponteland, which opened in June 2019 after replacing the former Catch restaurant, has closed its doors.

The specialist country restaurant and bar posted about the closure on social media earlier this week. However, instead of it being all sad news, they revealed upcoming news of 'near future plans' which they have been working on behind closed doors.

The new venture will be opening at the same location but will have 'a new brand and unique selling point'.

A Tomahawk Steakhouse spokeswoman said: "We have an exciting new venture we are hoping to launch in the near future from our Ponteland site.

"Work has been going on behind the scenes for a little while now, to partner up with a unique beer brand, and launch an amazing new kitchen menu."
