The pie and mushy peas at the cafe were very good.

This is simply a super good museum with great exhibits and ancillary information. Then you also have the meticulously excavated Vindolanda fort ruins. Both the museum and the fort provide a superb immersive Roman experience that is simply superb. It is mainly concerned with looking at the life of Roman soldiers on Hadrian's Wall. About 7 miles, or 11 kilometres, away there is also the Roman Army Museum. You can save 10% on your ticket purchases when you buy the saver ticket for both museums and can use them on different days.
