Pick of the Week

Not My Monkey, The Wharf, Newark.

A beautifully put together platter

Sat outside at Not My Monkey in the sun with a view of the river — really good coffee, a great ploughman’s, and a properly nice setting. It’s a very stylish little spot.

It shifts nicely depending on when you go — easy daytime stop for coffee, then a bit more atmosphere later on with wine.

Tucked slightly off the main path so easy to miss, but one of those places you end up going back to without really thinking about it. Well worth having on your radar.
