The literalist in me was delighted to find that Crab and Waltzer, on
the seafront in Whitley Bay, isn’t named because of some flight of whimsy on
behalf of the proprietors but as a reference to things which can actually be
found within its walls. If you are so minded, and manage to grab the relevant
table, you will indeed be able to sit in one of the cars from an old waltzer.
And, once thus seated, you will be able to order dishes containing crab. If
you’ve always wanted to eat crab in a waltzer, well, this is clearly the
restaurant for you. You should probably stop reading now and book a table. But
for those of us with less niche tastes, this is also a place that does a few
other things rather well too.
