The 50 best pubs in Newcastle upon Tyne

What a fantastic roast dinner. One of the best I’ve ever had. Beef cooked to perfection. Giant yorkshires and the red cabbage was something special. The best bit? The doggo din dins. 🐾

Great little gem in the centre of Newcastle. We didn’t pre booked (which I highly recommend), but staff was very accommodating to find us a table. Food was excellent, great selection of local Gin and Ales. No blaring music is great bonus.

Nice clean pub. Has an upstairs beer garden. Didn’t try the food, but has a good pint of Guinness.

Amazing Steak Ciabatta, lovely staff and great drinks. Most definitely will be back.

Nice mixed sunday roast (beef, Pork, chicken) With mash, Yorkshire pudding, gravy, veggies.. For 20£ - IPA 7£ Ordering at 17h30, it was sad they told us we could not get dessert anymore as the kitchen was closed when we asked for it at 18h20 while noone asked if we wanted some.. Friendly waiters.

Love this place. Lovely food, kind staff and great atmosphere. I always come back. It has two floors, and two terraces. Good for walk-ins and you can also reserve tables. Very recommended

We went to The Bridge Tavern for lunch with our son. The two bartenders were very friendly and chatted to us. They were helpful in suggesting choices from the menu and yelling us about their experiences of Newcastle. Both of them were exceptional ambassadors for the town and for the pub. The food was lovely.

This is a great boozer. Some different beers on - good choice and nice atmosphere. If you want an older, proper pub. This is it 🍺

I lived in Newcastle for years and worked just up the road from this pub, it definitely wasn't a place we would have frequented back then, a proper old man's boozer. I'm now that old(ish) man, but the younger me would definitely have been a regular - fantastic selection of beers, including sours and stouts, served in a wafer thin old bar. Quirky. Love it.

One of the oldest pubs in Newcastle. It still maintains the true nature of what a pub should be - good beer, a good crack and welcoming atmosphere. Long may it last!

Visited with my Boyfriend and Brother after visiting the Ouseburn festival (highly recommended) it was very busy but the staff were extremely efficient, helpful and professional plus polite even though they were rushed off their feet and this is a credit to them. I absolutely loved it here, so historical and interesting. So many fascinating pictures, wall hangings and historical pieces from maritime history. The woodwork and ceiling are gorgeous and you can feel the tradition and history. The selection of real ales are superb as are all of the other drinks. Loved the seating in the little alley/outside corridor good for people watching, so quirky and unusual. You can see the original tiles which are stunning. Loved the stained glass. The toilets are clean and well maintained. Would go in alone. Fabulous place to meet up with friends if going along the quayside. Would recommend and definitely will return.

Brilliant old style pub with stacks of character and a great selection of cask ales. Bustling so can be tough to get a seat at times, but friendly customers make it easy to share a table, have some banter and even make new friends. One of the better ale drinkers pubs in Newcastle centre for me. Always worth a visit.

Ok so i never had the food so i am not sure the service is good but not perfect the guy when we walked in was talking to a customer and he was very nice. AND OMG THE AREA IS SO NICE IT HAS OLD ARTWORK AND ONE OF THE WINDOWS IS STAIND THE ATMOSPHERE IS MORE THEN A 5 I WOULD GIVE 10. Overall it is a nice 4.5 not perfect but great

The greatest bar in all of Newcastle. A true haven for the educated drinker looking to avoid the mayhem of the town centre. Great selection of beers and friendly service and interesting locals. A must visit!

Little bit of a gushy review but I can hands down say this is my absolute favourite place to eat in town! My partner and I have been frequently in the past few years and have never been served anything less than perfection! Service is absolutely outstanding with knowledgeable and attentive staff and the food……superlative! Fish dishes; fresh, well balanced and delicious and oh my word the lamb sharing main 🤤 just make sure you don’t eat for 24 hours beforehand if you want to finish it (although the staff are very happy to wrap up for you too). All in all, outstanding! Can’t wait for my next outing to The Broad Chare 😊

Absolutely wonderful experience here. Staff attentive but relaxed, great vibe & fantastic food. High recommend. Wish I’d taken more photos. This was the Butchers Steak in green peppercorn sauce! Delicious 🙏

Absolute best Sunday roast I've had since moving up here a year ago. We ordered the veggie roast which came with bubble and squeak; pork belly and the beef. Everything was flavoured beautifully and the roast potatoes were incredible. Definitely coming back

Pros: Good selection of beers, scotch egg, haggis on toast is an interesting take. Cons: Too pricey for what they offer. Fish cake was too dry, only mediocre at best. "Grilled calf liver" wasn't grilled, but pan fried (though it was delicious, nevertheless). Green leaves in the salad weren't properly washed, you could see the dirt on some of them. Attention to detail was lacking, overall ("luxury soap" bottle in the toilet was refilled with some cheap washing liquid that you can hardly rinse off, etc.). Michelin list brought us here, but I regretted the visit. I hope this was a one off incident, and they are doing better generally.

Amazing food and service - the bar snacks (monkfish cheeks and cauliflower fritters pictured) and roasts (topside of beef and pork belly) were exceptional!

Calf liver was really good and tasty, but the portion size should be bigger for a main. It’s only two slices of liver and the rest is kale and mash.

Such a beautiful place .. service was exceptional and so was the food .. my favourite meal from my week away in Newcastle .. thank you for an amazing food experience

What an incredible pub! The Free Trade Inn completely lives up to the hype. The atmosphere is effortlessly cool. it's the perfect, unpretentious place to catch up with friends. We managed to grab a spot in the beer garden and the view of the Tyne Bridge and the Quayside is simply unbeatable. It's the best backdrop for a pint in the entire city. The beer selection is fantastic. A great mix of local ales and interesting craft beers, all kept perfectly. The staff were really friendly and knowledgeable when we couldn't decide what to order. Love their selection of Kernal beers on my last visit. A truly special pub that feels authentically Newcastle. We'll be back again.

Excellent little pub just about 1km walking distance from the millenium bridge. Great beer selections, both traditional beers on cask, plenty of taps and cans/bottles, and some of these might even be slightly hyped ones, so there is a really nice mix of beers available. Not sure if they serve food or not, but during my last visit they had a selection of cheese an there was also a food truck located outside. And the views are really nice looking towards the Millenium Bridge. Highly recommend to visit this place!

The best pub we visited on this 4 day trip to Newcastle. We were visiting the UK for 17 days and took a trip up to Newcastle to visit a cousin. Stewart took us to his favorite spots and this one did not disappoint. I had a third pint of the Overnight Oats (9.5%). It was a small hike to get here from the city centre but the view from the beer garden was amazing. On the must visit again list the next time we are in Newcastle.

Great beer selection, friendly staff all with some terrific views over the river. Highly recommend.

This has to be one of the best pubs in the UK, let alone Newcastle. Great location with great outdoors areas for when the weather is nice. Incredible selection of beers on cask, keg and can / bottle. They seem to cover all bases from lighter Pale Ales, to IPAs, stouts and sours. Great service.

Proper pub. Didn't have food but everything else was as it should be. Lived in Newcastle for 52 years, first time ive been.

Looks can be deceiving. Went to meet up with some friends and what a treat. I would suggest a traditional style pub with little in the ways of airs and graces, just a welcoming atmosphere with a great feeling. Difficult to put your finger in it but the staff were efficient and happy to see me, I think! The juke box was an interesting feature as was the curving bar that displayed a wide offering of cask beers, cider and fruit things! Each to their own. Dog friendly with a constant number of humans at the bar I would suggest waiting for the pub quiz on the Wednesday. Venturing outside 2 very pleasant seating areas with the one across the road offering one of the best views down the quayside in to the city. Top photo opportunity when the sun was setting over the town. To top off the night there was a mobile pizza van from Scream for Pizza and whilst I did not partake this evening they my fav with the associated restaurant up there. Appears that they offer a beer and pizza combo, match made in heaven. A definite revisit soon with some more friends.

Love this place and its location. Indoors quite traditional britisk pub. Decent selection of taps including cask. Large outdoor seating area, so specially on a nice sunny day its really nice here. They do serve food here. I had a german hot dog which was quite nice.

Food great. The one thing that I can't look past is that when it's busy they don't just let people wait at the bar in conventional fashion. We need to stop normalising single file queues (which often stretch way out of the door at busy times). Bars are designed as such that people stand along the length of it. If I want a drink I shouldn't have to leave the building.

I was introduced to the Tyne Bar in 2018. It was good to be back! Authentic is overused but this place is genuinely the real deal. Situated between the canal and the River Tyne, almost a hidden gem, but with plenty of locals to feed the atmosphere. We sat outside with drinks and home made brownies. Highly recommended 👏👏👏

Great place to eat and drink with a lovely view from the beer gardens. A group of us came by on Saturday and they kindly served us right away and got us fed quickly. Would definitely recommend 👌🏼

Check out this absolute beauty of a pint! Staff are friendly and efficient. Pub is fantastic. Top drawer boozer.

I sat outside on a quiet early autumn afternoon in the sun. Really relaxing, with a gentle breeze. The beer is very well kept and I couldn't fault the selection. Staff were excellent. Very welcoming and helpful. Not expensive and close enough to the centre to be a pleasant walk along the river. Definitely recommend here and will be back.

Visited Wednesday. Basking in the sun in the beer garden to the side, friendly staff. Very quick to get served as was very busy due to sunny rare days we having as of late. Cider never tasted so good. Big shout out goes to the young lass with dark hair who grafted the delivery that afternoon like a machine in the heat then offered the two delivery blokes a drink!! ☀️🍻

Not one of my favourites but is decent. I’ve only ever had food from here once, it was just alright. I do like the layout of the building and particularly appreciate its history. Not sat in the beer garden yet but seems like a pretty good atmosphere.

Best lunch deal ive ever had. I asked if it was a smaller portion because it was so cheap and it wasnt! I had the chicken tikka flatbread with chips and it was so tasty. Added to that was very friendly service from Beth who is just a delight and the chef even checked in on us...a lovely man. Cant recommend enough. We will be back!

I always look for the oldest pub wherever I am, this is it in Newcastle. But it is a party pub. Everyone was having a great time, but this is not a “sit in the corner in a quiet old pub” vibe.

This review is about the service alone, me and my partner had made a mistake with our food order. Completely our fault! But our lovely waitress, Beth, corrected it for us. She was beyond lovely, really pleasant to be served by her. Would definitely recommend visiting. For the lovely food and atmosphere but more importantly for the brilliant service from all staff, but especially Beth. Thank you again.

We booked a two person bottomless - unfortunately it was slightly last minute but the two people who accommodated us (I sadly didn’t get their names but one was blonde and alternative and the other was a tall brown haired guy) were both so sweet and made sure we got our moneys worth! The drinks were lovely (I was allowed to try an aperol spritz for the first time but also was allowed to get another drink at the same time in case i didn’t like it) and the food was amazing. Will and can’t wait go again :).

Came today for a bottomless brunch for my birthday. Drinks and food lovely but even better than that all of the staff were so lovely, friendly and attentive. Beth and Hendrick mainly served us and couldn’t do enough to make sure we had a good time, What a credit to the venue your staff are. Would highly recommend and will be back. Thanks for a lovely afternoon.

We booked for a student brunch. Nowhere were we told that it was 1.5hrs and not 2hrs like it is advertised. Drinks took 10 mins to be orders from when we asked to order. We were aware of the £5pp deposit which we paid but then £360 was requested via email without any prior communication. Have had much better bottomless brunches elsewhere in Newcastle.

Went here a few years ago & glad to see it's still going strong. Well worth visiting if you like an oldy worldy pub with nooks & crannies. Ideally sit snugly by the window on a winter's day & watch the world go by but also a good suntrap outside on a summer's day. Good choice of well kept ale from around the country. The letdown was the food, the cheese & onion pie was ok but the peas, buttery mash & cheese sauce were incredibly bland.

Went on a Monday around 2pm, the pub is in a fabulous location, it's obviously extremely old but immaculately clean. Great decor and staff were super helpful and friendly but natural not annoyingly in your face. We tried the legendary pies and all I can say is WOW, absolutely delicious. I had mince and onion with cheesy mash and minted peas and my partner had steak and ale with the same sides. It was flawless, easily the best pie I've ever had. The mash gravy and peas were perfect, the portions large and very recently priced. It was so nice we kept eating well after we were full and ended up writing off the rest of the day because our greedy selves were waddling around uncomfortable and far too full. I strongly recommend if you decide to try it- eat AFTER you've done everything else you need to do for the day because this was the first time in my life I had a hangover from a pie, in a good way, but still! I will definitely go back for more pie induced coma action because it was totally worth it.

Super ambiance The pie(s) are great. The meal was more then enough, but you just can't stop eating. Of course accompanied with a great glass of beer. Just order at the bar, sit at your table, relax and enjoy.

Cannot rate this place highly enough! The atmosphere differs depending on what part you're in; my favourite is the back room with the wall of barrels and the dusky lighting. The pies/food are insanely delicious and I always look forward to them. Plus, we booked a table for my engagement and the staff were magnificent, properly looked after us and made us feel so special. Warm, friendly, good food, and good vibes. If you get a chance to stop in, you won't regret it. 10/10 for everyone there!

If you want to taste real pies this is the place. You have a wide variety of pies which you can combine as you wish with your potatoes, peas and sauce. Recommended place in Newcastle. We were during a business trip and we landed here by chance and it was a pleasant surprise, so we will come back.

Delicious pies! I even went out of the way on my way back to the Newcastle Airport to visit the Redhouse for a second time. There's a variety of different pies you can choose from, and then you can pair it with a choice of potato, peas and liquors. I absolutely loved the confit garlic mash with mushy peas. The creamy parsley sauce was great as well. Staff is friendly, and the place itself is a pub, so it's a cozy place by default.

What a wonderful pub restaurant! Stumbled across it when trying to find a good restaurant with a friend who has to have potatoes!! We loved this place. We managed to get a seat down the back in a quiet room, a lovely change from Spoons the night before (mad!). We had a pie each. Me and my friend had the steak and ale pie and loved it. My other friend had the lamb pie and loved it too. We had mashed potato, roast potatoes and chips, respectively. Thankfully they do proper ordinary peas, not just this mushy pea business! The staff were very down to earth and friendly, as you'd expect in this wonderful city. Really good value for money I think as well. So glad that we found this superb restaurant so close to our hotel. Very highly recommended and I plan to return when next in the city!

Quite fond of The Hancock, pretty reliable. Decent interior, large screens, clean and tidy, space is well utilised in terms of tables / seats. Great outdoor area too. Menu has a better variety than most I’d say. Quality of food is what you’d expect from pub grub - lowkey, unpretentious, no bells and whistles, simple and consistent. Sometimes that’s all you need, just a chill, laid back meal with a pint. My go-to is the vegetarian sausage, mash, peas and gravy, with a side of the drunken mushrooms, would also recommend the cheese & jalapeño donuts. My only criticism is that the staff aren’t the friendliest. Really generous happy hours and meal days including Mon-Fri, 5-8pm, £3.25 drinks. Mon-Fri, 12-6pm, meal & soft drink £7.75 (can upgrade to alcoholic drink + £1). I also believe students get a 10% discount, and think you get a complimentary drink if you sign up to their newsletter. Certainly more than most places offer, can’t fault it.

My 22 year old friend with a valid student ID was served 2 drinks without being questioned for ID. On ordering her third drink she realised she had forgotten her ID and calmly accepted she could not be served but wished to remain on the property until her friend had finished her drink (4:30pm). She was then followed outside to where we were sitting for the past hour and aggressively asked to leave the premises. Bar staff were rude and shouted at us as we were having a casual drink in the sun. Disappointed with the lack of consistent rules and how staff belittled me and my friend.

Asked at the bar if they’d be able to put commentary on somewhere for the F1, as they have done before. This time we were just flat refused so we left and went to the Junction instead who were much more helpful.

Thank you for the best Guinness in the lovely out door area. The lovely bar maid saved my bacon by picking up my wallet that I had dropped. We are so very grateful for you kindness and honesty. We will definitely be visiting again! Highly recommended x

We hired the upstairs part of the Hancock pub for my stepson's 21st party , from the first contact to booking the room to us all leaving just after 11pm the staff & manager made sure everything was done to perfection , if possible I would give 100/10 to the whole team who run this amazing establishment. The Hancock is a great place to come for a nice drink & food , the staff are friendly & helpful & ready to make sure your time there is the best ever , all the catering is done the kitchen staff & it shows just how good pub food should be , when the food was being served you could see it had been thought out so well & we were all extremely pleased with every aspect of the buffet from presentation to taste . The atmosphere inside is a very relaxed one & the whole place is a credit to all who work there to make it the success it is . I would have no doubts about booking the Hancock again & would recommend it to anyone who asked what it is like , the biggest of thank you's to all the staff there who made it a great night for us all ♥️♥️♥️♥️🤘🤘🤘🤘🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺

If you're a football fan in Newcastle looking for a solid place to catch the game, The Hancock is a brilliant shout. We watched the Leeds v Newcastle match here, and the atmosphere was spot on, lively, passionate, but still friendly. Plenty of big screens around the pub, so no matter where you're sat, you've got a clear view of the action. The crowd was buzzing, especially with the local Newcastle fans in full voice, but there was a mix of supporters and no hassle, jus good banter and shared love of the game. Drinks were well-priced (which is always appreciated), and service at the bar was quick even though the place was packed for the match. We stayed for a couple of hours after full-time and the vibe remained chilled and welcoming. If you’re in the Toon and want to watch live sport with a proper pub crowd, The Hancock is definitely worth checking out. We'll be back for the next match!

Wonderful quaint little spot, comfortably nestled just outside the the city centre. A hidden gem if you will. I was astounded by the vibrant atmosphere and pleasant ambiance effervescing from the very foundations of this establishment. The pizza was imaaculate, the pints were cold and the vibe was well and truly lit my dudes. Clinique's service was second to none, she really pulled out all the stops with the food recommendations and I left with a full stomach and a cheeky buzz on. My word, time to sample the neighbouring museum!

Having visited here years ago and being impressed, I have been patiently waiting to return. We visited during restaurant week and the place seemed quite full. We both opted for 3 courses at £25. We arrived at 6 ordering food and drinks not long after. Starters did arrive promptly and were lovely. Mains took a while longer, with people receiving food that was ordered after us. I looked around and the bar man peered back looking at our table. He came over and asked if we were still waiting for our mains. After a few minutes he appeared with them, hot and fresh, now 7.15. overall the food was great and I'd go back, service was good apart from the wait.

We went for lunch and weren't disappointed 😊 The food was fab (we'll definitely be back). The staff were friendly and the service was excellent. It was quiet when we went but we loved the quirky decor.

Fabulous couple of meals here with friends and pup in tow. Really well looked after, great food and the dog got a lot of love 🐩🥰 Food is a mix of nicely executed Asian influence dishes and traditional British favourites. The tempura prawns are huge, juicy and crispy, with a very moreish noodle salad. The burger a decent size with goodb"normal"fries and the Sunday roasts really really generous portions with loads of gravy. Loved this place and the staff!

Went for date night on restaurant week. Great looking venue inside. The staff are top notch, great service. Had a couple of lovely pints and wine. Unfortunately the burger ordered was not up to scratch. The fries could have been a lot more crispy and the burger was overcooked and dry. The sea bass ordered was gorgeous with the saffron mash.

Friendly staff and good food. Have the tempura prawns to share and the steak and chicken shawarma. All tasty and well cooked. A little hidden away but well worth a visit.

I went to The Earl for Restaurant Week lunch last week with my parents. Interesting menu with a varied selection, delicious food, friendly service and a lovely atmosphere! I hadn't eaten here for over two years, I will definitely be gack again soon!

It was my husbands birthday so I went online and seen reviews, so decided to go rang up to book, food was amazing friendly staff, then I got bill at end, witch they had put extra charges on. I asked them to clarify this , which they did and it was wrong, then I realised it was wrong. I payed for it. My husband got a 2 course for £20 and I got a three course for £23 then there was an extra charge of £5 for my beef and an extra charge of £5 for my prawns so watch out for the hidden air charges your not just paying for a 3 or two course meal this left a bitter taste prices should be more clear. Sorry I won’t return because of this…. Don’t mind paying for good food but I felt as if your charges where hidden on menu most be more clearer for customer

We had a lovely time at City Tavern. We had a yummy lunch, including gluten free beer on tap. Lots of gluten free and vegetarian food options available. The vibe inside was lovely and the staff were really really nice and very attentive!! There was free wifi, free charging ports and very comfy chairs. An added bonus is that they show movies for free at 2pm, 5pm and 8pm everyday on their giant outdoor screen!! Such a great vibe, definitely recommend as a stop in during a day in Newcastle.

We had the upstairs for a private event, but the whole of the tavern was gorgeous and fun! The decor was neat, the drinks fresh, and the service impeccable. Fair warning - they aren't joking about the 'giant' Yorkshire pudding, it spans a huge dinner plate!

Absolutely fantastic venue. I organised a scavenger hunt at work and wanted to hide some challenges round the pub. I didn't call ahead, just turned up on the day, hoping they would accommodate. The manager on shift helped out and even joined in by hiding a challenge himself. Super service!!!! I have been here a number of times now, and enjoyed every visit.

Lovely pub, great food, friendly staff, good atmosphere. Dog friendly :)

Wow, why haven't I ever been here before. Great pub and eatery in the middle of Newcastle. real home cooked food and an array of beverages alcoholic and non alcoholic. Plenty of choice for meat eaters and vegan options. Portions huge!! Staff were lovely and friendly, atmosphere was great too. Decor was fab, so well done. Definitely recommend to anyone. Dog friendly 😌 Gluten free menu 👌

Two meals and two drinks for just over £40 about the going rate now for everywhere. Food was nice (Cajun chicken burger, Slaw, Chips) wasn't much choice from the menu which is sometimes a good thing, veggie options are limited. Service was quick and efficient, still not sure why they have a perspex cover infront of the till which make communication with staff at the bar weird. Someone at the bar asked for Crayon's and to my surprise behind me there was what appeared to be a kids bday party?? it's a pub not a crèche what's wrong this these People? at one point some parents left their kids to leave the pub?? Mind boggles. It's definitely something I've noticed eating out in town these days people are treating pubs as playgrounds for their kids.

Avoid, been for lunch today and spent £47 on 2 sandwiches with chips and 2 drinks. Beef was tough with watery gravy and the fish fingers sandwich had next to no fish in it just batter, definitely not homemade bread and they even managed to make the chips bland. The waiter avoided us once the food arrived and we noticed they only cleared plates once customers had left. Obviously not wanting to hear complaints. As we left 3 lady's were sending back their meals, really wished we had done the same. Expensive drinks and rubbish food would not recommend.

So disappointed!! We were over from Ireland & I picked this restaurant to celebrate my husbands big birthday. I emailed & made reservation in advance for 10 of us for 6:30pm on a Sunday. Reservation was confirmed & I was told we had the table for 2 hours. Reason why I picked this restaurant was because it served Sunday roasts. We arrived at 6;30 & told kitchen closed at 7 so hurry up & put orders in before it closed including desserts or we wouldn’t get anything! We had to write orders down ourselves & go to till with them (I wasn’t aware of this practice) Then told nearly everything we were ordering was not available-No roasts whatsoever-chicken, beef, turkey? No fish, no shepherds pie! Basically nothing left on menu! Then no desserts left either. Food was just mediocre. While the wee girl who was serving bar & food tried her best, the service & whole experience was bad. What I had hoped to be a special birthday dinner with family & friends was an awful experience.

Regular meet-up place as food and service is always good. Not into sports personally so I just zone out the large screen tv's..too busy chatting, eating and drinking. I don't usually leave a review, but the staff members Chloe and Callie were especially helpful after I'd ordered my meal and forgot to mention I was vegetarian. My all day breakfast was taken away and a vegetarian one arrived. I apologied as it was my fault and was prepared to pay again for my meal but was told that was not necessary. As usual, the food was delicious 😋 Thank You.

Alic spotted another Peoples Pub with a Cask Marque. Thus a very good real ale selection. City centre bar vibe rather than a locals vibe. Booth bought me a Cullercoats brewery Grace Darking Blond. A 5% golden ale. Pub doing a roaring trade on this Tuesday afternoon in August. Lots of food being ordered. Buzzing atmosphere. Large upstairs bar as well. Std toilets up here.

Cannot recommend the three bulls enough! Chloe, Caley and Andrew absolutely made our night. They managed to fit us in at dead short notice then gave us amazing service all night! 10/10 all round! We phoned to book and they were amazing, sat us quickly on arrival and the food and drink serive was great. We will be back soon!

We went here yesterday..the service by Callie n Rachel was outstanding..lovely young lady's. The food was amazing..i got the fish n chips special..gorgeous and my friends got the 2 meal special of fish n chip for only £16.all hot n fresh..well done the chef 👨‍🍳 and the rest of the kitchen staff.. Its not my first visit and it wont be my last.. Best pub for food in service in the toon ♥️

After 25 years of being a loyal customer. I would like to comment on the ladies toilets. They are exceptional. Very clean and pleasant to visit. Staff are fab.

Great experience. Our servers Callie and Chloe were excellent. Very attentive and friendly.

Dropped in on a Tuesday afternoon. Beer good, staff friendly. Small place but welcoming. Regret group of 5 loud, drunk guys dropped in and made the place unpleasantly noisy. Can't really blame the pub for this but did make us drink up and move on

Cutest little pub i’ve been to in newcastle so far! super atmospheric, lovely warm lighting, the music is cracking and the pints r FAB (the earl grey ipa !!!!!) Staff are friendly as are the patrons. Good pub.

Slightly off the main street but definitely worth finding if you like a wide beer selection including quite a few cask. There's a broad mix of good quality craft breweries and the mainstream stuff as well to suit most. I didn't try the food on this visit but they sounded like good grazing sharing options for another time. Old school no fuss decor. If you are in the centre looking for a good quality beer in friendly surroundings, this will serve you well

Huge selection of draught beers. Had no idea what to get since it was my first time in a UK pub. Got weird, interesting and superb recommendations from the barkeeper and some local regulars. I was also able to try some of the beers before buying a whole pint.

Been going to this pub(previously the Adelphi)for numerous years with friends went in last night pretty empty ordered a pint of beer it was just froth top to bottom refused it and ordered a Guinness £6.10 a pint which was ok my friends ordered lager which they left as it tasted awful the seating is torn and ripped.Used to love this pub but I or my friends aren’t going back ridiculous prices for poor beer 🤢

Very nice traditional pub in Newcastle City. Excellent range of craft beers both draft and cask. I've been in quite a few times and beer is always good quality.

Very good Newcastle pub near the Grey's Monument. 8 cask beers on handpump when I last visited including a dry roasted peanut stout! Lots of outdoor seating most of it covered. Not too busy after the Spurs game at St James' Park.

Bridge Hotel is simply a decent boozer. It’s big enough to accommodate a lot of punters but still feels like a local. It’s got the energy, the buzz….but you’ll also hopefully get a seat. Plus it’s damn handsome. Rock solid.

Had a quiet pint here whilst on a 2 day art visit to Newcastle. Beautiful old pub by the castle and one of its many bridges. A lovely sunny day meant the stained glass in the windows was truly glowing. Friendly barmaid in a lovely place, good beer choice I had a hoppy pale ale, highly recommended

Paulicarus is ticking off the 2025 CAMRA Good Beer Guide entries. Sat overlooking the low level swing bridge where Christine's dad Jim used to work the night shift in the late 1970's. Next to the high level bridge, hence the name. Ten handpump real ales cement this as a GBG pub. My first ever visit to this marvellous building. A small outside river view beer terrace with super views not open in March. ( needs TLC.) A new brewery for me, Breworks in Pickering. A 5% Coal Porter..ha ha. Downstair toilets let down the place

wasn't sure if they had real ale here, but thought I remembered it being OK. how wrong I was. it's fantastic. they have 8 ales and a couple of ciders on cask, plus a large keg selection! tried a couple; both well kept. excellent bar!

Beautiful pub building, ummolested it seems - beautiful vintage interior. Lots of beer. B Friendly bar staff who love pubs, beer and other chats. Interesting little garden by the bridge. Got to check this place if you haven't before.

A wonderful little find a short distance from the Riverside and Newcastle Central Station. Very busy bar, standing room only for us. Fabulous atmosphere offering a wide range of both alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages, including some local brews. The toilets are located downstairs. If you like stained glass, do have a look around at the scenes depicting the traditional trade of the area. Directly opposite, you'll find Newcastle Keep and part of the old castle walls, castle well, and the Castle Stairs. I suspect the way to do the stairs is down and not up as we did!!

I haven't been in here for decades. It was a good wee boozer back in the day and still is. It now has a fabulous beer garden with spectacular views. Highly recommend

Decent little pub and great for sitting in the sun with a drink. The venue itself is relatively small and the majority of the seating is outside...there was spill over onto the lawn on one side. Punters following the sun. I would defo go back.

Staff are all lovely and welcoming. The outdoor beer garden is lush and often has live music and rapper dancers. The eclectic mix of live music,comedy and special events are always top quality. I highly recommend this place it's everything you want from a traditional pub with a warm welcome and when autumn winter comes around the cosiness of a real fire .

Nice little pub nestled away in Ouseburn. Good selection of ales

Wednesday 24th September 2025 This pub is deceptive looking from the outside looks 19oos and inside it is a lot older feel to it It has a unspoilt feeling It has a great frontage outdoor drinking area. The landlord is a gentleman that truly understands real ales. There's 5 spectacular real ales on from locally and in some cases obscure breweries When in Newcastle this pub for real ale drinkers is a must to drink in Go in

We went with our Morris ‘side’ for a get together with many of the other Morris Dance sides in the region . A good night was had by all those dancing and spectating . Food is limited to bar snacks but excellent range of beers and ciders . We were all with friends and enjoying dancing together on a summer’s evening . So atmosphere was great …. Even the ‘civilians’ enjoyed themselves

Sanctimonious bar maid got the 'wrong end of the stick' of a private conversation and asked us to leave. I've been to this excellent pub many times over the last decade but won't be back.

Can't believe first visit to this pub, reason being where it is located, a bit off track from other pubs. In saying that, it's only a 10 minute walk from Byker metro station. Good old fashioned boozer, with an excellent atmosphere in a good location in Ouseburn. Reasonable selection of drinks and decent prices. When back in Newcastle again, will attempt to walk to Ouseburn and visit again.

Great pub, and great selection of real ales, craft beer, ciders and spirits. Nice atmosphere too

Really welcoming, well run pub with various cask options and quality staff.

Quite simply an icon. Love a pint of Jakehead with my children before the match 🖤🤍

First time back in about 30 years, still a great place. Really friendly atmosphere and a lovely pint from the wylam brewery. Bar staff made a point of saying cheerio when I left which was really appreciated. Will definitely be back. 10/10.

Nice small cosy local pub with lots of choice

Ground floor bar+ upstairs room. 5 hand pulls .2 ales on. Good service.

Pubs being pubs these days I feel everyone's out to pose with a drink as opposed to drink with a drink. This place changes that feeling to me every time I go I leave smashed not by binging but by pure quality peeve in my system. Match days are king here class staff and your guaranteed a wild weekend if you start on the jakehead 🤘

Very trendy busy rustic restaurant with attached cool bar. Popped in December enjoyed a drink from huge gin menu and booked Valtentines after spotting restaurant and food being served. Scallops, arincini 5/5, Chateaubriand looked amazing cooked perfect but went cold quick unsure if the board or just every time door opened rush of air hit our area. Manager and staff great and attentive drinks slightly slow but manager chased up. Definitely go back but sit in upper area away from door. Thanks guys.

The toast with the mushrooms was a huge sized portion. The mushroom flavor was creamy and bold. I had the sirloin as the main course and it was paired with red wine.The Black truffle butter sauce was unique and it complimented the steak. The chips were not super starchy, and the crispy texture had you reaching for the next one. The waitresses knew the menu, as I had questions about what to order. Oh and they were friendly.

Jessica was our server tonight and she was absolutely amazing .. food was delicious and plentiful .. definitely worth a visit if you're up in Newcastle

Great Sunday family early dinner, had Sunday lunch menu. Food was great as well as service. Nice, suitably quiet atmosphere despite being busy, easy to have a conversation. We came with kids, they were also really well catered for. One wheelchair user in our group, the restaurant is nice and spacious, it was easy to move around. There is one section level with the entry (where we were seated) and another section up 2 steps.

We had an amazing experience with a set menu dine in tonight. With lovely helpful staff (lily was very attentive throughout) Food was unreal.

Great food, quick service and helpful staff. Our server Hannah was especially good. Sunday roast is a must!

Hazel has been absolutely brilliant. Attentive to details but not overstepping. Food was delicious, we chose to go for a rib eye and a fillet steak, both cooked perfectly and accompanied by a lovely red wine. All in all, a great evening. Definitely “pleased to meet you”. Thank you, Hazel, for looking after us

First time at Twin Farms, even though I’m a local! So glad we made the decision to go. There were 6 of us and everyone thoroughly enjoyed their meal. I had the ribeye steak…. Probably the best steak I have had in a long time. Cooked to perfection and a wonderful taste. Triple cooked chips were amazing too! All in all, a lovely experience accompanied by lovely staff and nice atmosphere.

Called in for a late lunch on Saturday afternoon . Service is usually good but staff seemed stressed , not the usual friendly service we know . We ordered 2 fish finger sandwiches at the bar . Although it came quite quickly it looked like it had been thrown together . The stottie it came in was burnt and the fish was under par . No one came back to check our food was good . This is not what we have come to expect here , very disappointing. We left the food pretty much untouched . Shame

The food and drinks are nice. Good place for family and friends gathering. However, if u bring ur furry one with u, u will be sit at the bar, not the Restaurant. We didnt mind, but there was way more crowded. ps. Wont recommend their dog food or drinks.

Went for Sunday lunch at Twin Farms. Relatively good value for money and the food itself was okay, though it could have been a bit warmer. The real let-down was the service – despite plenty of staff on shift, it was hard to get anyone’s attention. At one point there were seven staff standing around talking while we were waiting for a dessert menu, and when we finally got served the attitude didn’t feel particularly interested. A shame, as with better service this could have been a much more enjoyable experience.

Cute pub/restaurant, plenty of parking and good service staff. However, food was average and most dishes were little dry.. they were well presented.. unfortunately didn’t taste as good as it looked. Pricing is also at the top end of what pub foods should be and overlapping into decent restaurant territory.

Quiet meal during the week, after booking a table online. Food was tasty, (but liver was tastier the first time we went). Desserts were delicious too. Service was quick, both fed and watered within an hour. Atmosphere was quiet, but at least we could hear each other talking. Will be back again.

Was okay sunday lunch- bar staff need to be aware on serving drinks asked for zero sugar coke and my sister ordered normal coke Due to being pregnant diabetic I have to be very careful When the drinks were served I was given full fat coke… Personally I found it very over priced for what it was worth £6 for cauliflower cheese and asked for them to make sure it had plenty of cream and cheese as it helps with the diabetic side of things to be charged £2 for extra cheese ??? Dessert was was very nice but don’t think I could say I’d be coming back any time soon Staff very friendly

Visited the Brandling Arms in Gosforth this evening and was not disappointed. We went for the 2 course evening menu and I had the baked harissa goats cheese and sourdough. I was told by George that I was the first to try this as it was new on the menu and it was absolutely phenomenal. Marianna and Kenny did an absolutely amazing job. For main I had king prawn and crab linguine and again just amazing. Lewis and George made us feel so welcome and went above and beyond for us- we will definitely be back.

Been wanting to try The Branding Arms for years and years and on Monday me and my wife chose great sunny random day to try. The pub is a bright, warm and very pleasant place to be.The staff we met seemed happy and enjoyed the job. We asked to take photos and they were really cool with it. They also told us the menu will change in 6 weeks time too. We ordered two Signature Burgers. One Rosemary and Parmesan. Cheese cake, brownie. Was a costly adventure but super well worth it. The ingredients were nice and different for the taste. The amount of skin on fries in the cups was plenty and had a lush taste and crisp. The cheese cake stole the show in looks and taste, The cake had shortbread up the side too which I enjoyed. The popcorn and chocolate sauce were so pleasing. My wife had brownie and ice cream which was lovely too. Overall I would say look at the menus and enjoy. Thank you Branding Arms and staff. We will come back down the line in the year as we live in Blyth.

Brunch this morning with girlfriends. Food was lovely, service was great. Only scored down for atmosphere as we were only ones in. They open at 10am daily for brunch but no one seems to know this. Dog friendly too. Will definitely be back soon.

We visited for an impromptu lunch on Saturday 4 October and then went back for dinner! Fabulous food and compliments to Chris the chef. We had fantastic, friendly service from Grace and Katie for both lunch and dinner. I would highly recommend visiting and we will be returning again when we next can.

Went out for a family meal at The Brandling Arms and the food was brilliant! The Boss Burger was a real highlight – juicy, full of flavour, and stacked just right. Chris did a fantastic job in the kitchen, and Ryan’s friendly service made us all feel at home. A great spot for a relaxed family dinner!

Hard to fault - nice atmosphere, good menu, reasonable price, delicious food. Staff were friendly and attentive, food came out quickly and was all excellent. Would definitely recommend.

We tried the fish & chips at The Brandling Arms and it was outstanding! Crispy, golden batter with perfectly cooked fish – Kenny really knows his craft in the kitchen. Lewis gave us brilliant service, super friendly and attentive, which made the whole meal even better. A fantastic experience all round!

A Cask Marque pub, part of the Nicholson's chain. Good real ale selection plus ciders. Alic chose an 80 shilling from Edinburgh brewery Stewart's. A classic Scottish Heavy. Not on top form. Booth spotted this pub opposite the railway station. One room pub with a few tables out front. Food served. £17 fish n chips. Pies £16.50.

Had the most wonderful time at this charming pub. Migle, Dom, Gabe were absolutely lovely, welcoming us straight away, with great recommendations of food & ales. My partner had the steak & ale pie and it lives up to its gold award. Absolutely amazing. The Nicholson's pale ale was simply exquisite. We left happy (expecially after Dom showed us the right way to the shopping centre 😂). Thank you!

Right opposite the train station. Well needed pint after a long journey. Had a pint of Boltmaker which Dom recommended, served in the right glass. Bloody lovely!

Great experience, travelled down from Scotland for a night out. Drinks very well priced, service from the bar very prompt and attentive. Ania was exceptional, very warm and welcoming, remembering all our orders and with a smile! Will 100% be back

A wonderful pub in the heart of Newcastle. The kitchen offers interesting dishes, including their wonderful pie, and a wide selection of beers, including their own brews. The place is warm and welcoming, and is popular with people of all ages.

£6.50 for a pint of Madri... enough said! Edit: Thank you for your reply. I had zero issues with the service from the staff. They where fantastic. But like many these days, prices for me are a big factor for return custom. I have edited my review as I agree it came across as a low score. The pub is a lovely old school looking pub with a decent selection to choose from, it's just a little too pricey for me these days.

One of my favourite pubs in Newcastle! The food is all delicious and there is a nice variety on the menu. They have lots of TV screens making it a great location to watch football, and the staff are always friendly giving a lovely atmosphere to this charming old pub.

The table next to us was a bit drunk. Not the bars fault. Staff were great food was great and on time. Drinks were delicious and decor was shabby chic. Big bar very good day out. The staff made it

Lovely dog friendly pub with lots of craft beers available next to the station. Range of food available such as pub food, burgers, sandwiches. I had the philly cheese steak, chips were excellent

I was recommended this pub for Sunday roast and was sadly disappointed. Firstly the staff were lovely - Josh in particular was super friendly, accomodating and looked after us well. We ordered two bloody marys which tasted like water with a dash of tomato and pepper, we couldn't finish them. I had the beef roast - the meat was cooked well and juicy although the edge was chewy. The potatoes were very dry and felt like they had been reheated a few times. My friend had the pork roast which was very dry and needed a lot of gravy to compensate. The carrots and Yorkshire puddings were great. For dessert we had the crumble (fine) and chocolate brownie, which wasn't warm and was dry and crumbly. Overall - disappointed with the food but the staff and location are good.

Paulicarus wandered back to the Station and spotted this large pub. Four real ales including a new East Sussex brewery for me. Lakedown from Burwash. A 5.7 % IPA, Harmonium. Only had a half as a result. The rooms revolve around a central bar. There is a private hire room downstairs. Fifty years ago Newcastle was a keg beer desert with over 90% of the pubs Scottish and Newcastle keg only pubs. There were only a handful of real ale outlets. Food served.

Went into here for a roast dinner Sunday evening around 1700 not sure if they had any food left but when I asked they did so i had a triple meat roast dinner this had beef ( which they asked if wanted it pink or well done, nice touch) I think a quarter of chicken and some pork, there was roasted parsnips, roast potatoes, mash and some other vegetables and a lovely yorkie and some crackling. It was all very nice and tasty, the only little issue I have is it wasn't very hot but given the late hour I choose not to say anything to the staff at the time but other than that I would still recommend eating a roast dinner here. It's close proximity to Newcastle railway station is another plus.

Hers a 4 star nice place well done out, only looked at my balance turns out I've paid £34.14 for 4 estrella and a fruity cider which I think is a bit fruity in itself if I'm honest. But nice place for a half now maybe.

Was visiting for one night, walked to the Town Wall from my hotel. Place was busy, but large enough there were plenty of places to sit and eat. Staff were great at recommending local beers, as well as what was popular at the time. Fantastic food, and an amazing beer from nearby. If I'm ever in town again I'll definitely stop in to eat.

Paulicarus had to walk ten yards to his next pub, a beer Marque pub. Only a couple of real ales on out of four handpumos but St Austell Proper Job Pale Ale is a favourite. Rosie's Pig cider as well. Lots of standing space for busy times and surprisingly large pub with hidden rooms and an upstairs beer terrace. Toilets upstairs. Wife tells me lots of (7) ladies cubicles. Food served.

Booked for a friend’s birthday but waited 40 mins for food, which only arrived after we chased it. My fish and chips were warm (not hot) with soggy batter that was hard to cut (photo attached), and both friends’ meals were cold and sent back. As we were heading to another venue and had already waited long enough, I didn’t send mine back. No apology, no check-in, and overpriced for the quality. Lovely pub, but I won’t be eating here again.

Superb Christmas buffet, cosy pub with friendly staff! I recently hired the space (Tommy Burns room) for a festive family gathering. From the very first email the staff were super friendly and helpful (Tom and Laura) answering all my questions. There were plenty of options on the Christmas buffet menu for meat-eaters and vegans and all absolutely delicious. All who attended were blown away by the food. I will definitely be returning…. the vegan cheesecake was to die for! The pub has a lovely cosy atmosphere and great music. We were able to request songs through the ‘Secret DJ’ app which was brilliant. Thanks to all at The Forth!!

John took great care of us, as did the rest of the team. Superb environment and pub quizz.

We drink here most weeks, the atmosphere is lush, terrace for smoking, booths for chatting... equally welcoming for post work drinks or post match celebrations. Bar staff, John and Laura this evening, are welcoming, friendly and go above and beyond for cold drinks and good times :)

Fantastic friendly staff, excellent atmosphere & selection food & drinks, love this place, check out the secret garden upstairs too.

Lovely staff, great food, fantastic drinks. Some of the best mocktails I’ve had in the country let alone in the city. Would always recommend to friends especially since they do industry discount for draft

Brilliant bar, lovely atmosphere and really nice place to be in the city centre. We did a cocktail masterclass for a hen do and the staff were super fun and friendly, everyone got to make two cocktails (anything you wanted off the menu!) and they played some games with us too. We were so well looked after and everyone thoroughly enjoyed being there. Would definitely recommend!

A lovely place to stop off for a quick pint. Distillery on show. Plenty options for beer and lager available, including plenty of local beers. Fast and friendly service

I've heard it's a decent bar and I have not been disappointed. What's more of a pleasant surprise is that they do quite good food as well! I especially loved the small plates like sweet potato fries, cod bites and spring rolls. I would recommend this place for anyone looking for a drink but also nice food and snacks. Great espresso Martini by the way. Ah and one last thing, I went on a Friday night and they had live music at around 8pm!

Fab gin bar, distilling their own gin on site - the first distillery within the city walls for over 200 years (or so I'm told). Delicious selection of gin with a range of tonics, relaxed vibe and friendly staff.

Lovely surroundings and a great menu, service was very good and very clearly marked dietary options. Gluten free fish & chips meant it was the first time I've had fish & chips out in 10 years.

Good food a nice atmosphere we booked a table yesterday had a nice meal however the table that we were set for was right next to the door so when people were coming in and out it became very drafty and cold. The staff eventually moved us to another table. Good beer they also have their own gin distillery so it makes a nice change from the norm

I joined one of NE1's 24 Doors tours here and was definitely not disappointed. Host Phil introduced the gins on offer and provided insights into the history of gin, and also the art work of William Hogarth. The tour also included a thorough description of the on-site distillation process. A G&T, art, history, gin making, and more, all in an outstanding setting, why not visit and see for yourself?

Popped in on Wednesday to try the new deep pan detriot pizza and wasn't disappointed. I've given 2 stars for service as unfortunately the table app was down but took payment for my meal. Having to wait up to 5 days to be refunded. The service was also slow, taking 40 minutes for the food and it wasn't busy. The pizzas are a decent size though and only managed half.

It was very busy overall but the bottomless is worth it. We waited 20 minutes after our booking to be seated but the time starts when you receive your first drink. We were given a full bottle of prosecco on the table because service was slow but they were on top of that, ordering your next drink when you receive your current one. Very kind staff

What a fantastic bottomless brunch. Service was so quick and prompt throughout our booking. Huge thank you to Acacia for looking after us so well. Will recommend to friends!

On 24/5/25 Akenside Traders hosted my Hen do for 20 women via their bottomless brunch. Nothing was too much for them. The drink flowed seamlessly and the food had huge portions, catered to various dietary requirements and was so tasty. Every woman there commented on how the atmosphere and service was exemplary. The staff were honestly phenomenal and couldn't do enough. Highly recommend this venue and again, thank you to the staff for making my hen do perfection.

This might sound like a paid review but it isn't. We found this pub on a rainy April afternoon after walking for ages looking for a dog friendly establishment. They welcomed the 10 of us with open arms. It was a Wednesday afternoon so it wasn't to busy. Our kids were delighted with the choices they had after one of the staff went to chat to the chef about what they could have. From ordering to having food in front of us room about 20 minutes. Perfect size portions and a fantastic service. The staff went out of the way to show how dog friendly they were, with drinks and treats for both of them. If I had one complaint and its not really a complaint is that the slot machines take away a little of the look to the place. Hope to get back again 1 day and if i could give 6 stars i would. Thank you all.

Very dog friendly, my dog is going to be dog of the week next week on the dog of the week board I'm over the moon. Good pints reasonably priced and excellent food. Ideal way to end my Hadrians Wall walk. Perfect.

Came here for bottomless brunch today and the service was amazing! Couldn’t fault it. We were served by Andy and he was great, service was fast and I think within our two hours we had about 9 cocktails each and the ones we did have were very nice, the Pina Colada’s were our favourite. The food was also very nice too, I got the meat feast pizza and it was a good size and very tasty. Overall had a very positive experience here and would definitely return again because it was well worth the money! Thank you for a great evening :)

I’ve been here a number of times but never eaten. Firstly, the beer selection is outstanding and is matched by a smart and welcoming service team who were attentive and friendly. I’d never eaten previously, though had always been tempted. This time we tried the Sunday dinner ordering both the lamb and beef brisket. Sadly, the food was cold on both of our plates and lacked the seasoning to make it truly pop. I’d absolutely be back for more of their beer, but would be cautious to eat again. A welcome mainstay in Newcastle.

Sunday dinner (Beef and Chicken) were both brilliant. Everything fresh and piping hot. Yorkshire puddings were huge. Priced well and a huge selection of drinks to have. Would recommend and will be back to try some of the other food available

I’ve been to this pub a few times before and always enjoyed their homemade skin-on chips, so I was looking forward to a good meal. Unfortunately, today’s experience was a huge letdown. I visited with two friends and ordered a burger (£15.50—not exactly cheap). Instead of the homemade chips I’d had before, it arrived with cheap, skinny fries, and the coleslaw listed on the menu was missing. When we asked the waiter about it, he bluntly told us they had run out. Fair enough, but I still paid full price for a meal that wasn’t as advertised. When I raised my concerns, the waiter was clearly annoyed. He offered me a drink (which I declined) and then said I could get a refund for the coleslaw at the bar. When we finished eating and went to the bar, we were told we’d get £1 back. To top it off, the girl at the bar tried to insist she had informed us they had run out of fries—yet none of the three of us had heard that. At least she apologised, which is more than I can say for the waiter. The beef brisket in the Reuben burger was dry, and to make matters worse, we had to wait at least five minutes after getting our food just to receive cutlery. The whole experience felt disorganised and unprofessional. Wouldn’t eat here again, which is a real shame as we had planned to come back for Sunday lunch. Safe to say we’ll be going elsewhere.

Great pub, relaxed atmosphere & good music. Food is always fantastic quality. Brilliant place to wind down with a few pints on a Friday night.

The food was quite lovely. Amazing atmosphere and working crew.

Went here to do a brewery tour that had been bought as a gift for my Dad. We were greeted and served our first beer of 6 with the owner (Lee I think?) taking time to understand what beers we liked. This continued throughout our time here and we enjoyed another 5 beers along with a really informative talk about the history of the brewery and local history, learning loads around the processes. We were joined by more family and decided to stay and eat in the kitchen which was located downstairs, having seen the menu and food which all looked really good. We were impressed with the quality of everything ordered and are keen to go back to try the Sunday lunches. With over 20 beers on tap along with a full menu of other drinks, theres something for everyone. The atmosphere is really good and a great use of what is essentially an industrial unit. Great place and will definitely be back for drinks and food.

Little bit on pricey side apart from that perfect. The young tall lad behind the bar knew his stuff. I loved how all the drinks had descriptions above the bar. Cocktails were even on offer and wow the brisket tacos are something else. Small venue outside but beautifully situated

Finished the night out here. A good real ale outlet showing footie. The Percy family being the local Top Dogs for hundreds of years. The area is packed with bars.

Great pub that we visited for the Rugby League Magic Weekend. So it was very busy but they had plenty of staff on to make sure everyone got served. Great beer garden as well to enjoy the warm weather. Drinks at great prices as well.

Popped in for a pint. Seems ok. They have AC which is good for the current heat.

Nasty bar staff - barmaid explaining no under 18s allowed and another Rottweiler type joins in snarling no 18 year olds. Not a nice welcome but then what do you expect from a chain pub. Management need to read a similar review from 5 months ago and act not ask reviewers to contact them. There is a way of turning away folk with even a level of curtesy and this wasn’t it, can’t fault the barmaid she was explaining the rules but the other one should have kept out of it

Brilliant little boozer, nice music, lovely atmosphere, been a few times whilst on holiday, staff and beer excellent, prices pretty good too well worth a visit

Great prices nice place for a drink ,garden out back one of our favourite pubs

Omg called in there today with family and 1 small child walked through the bar to get to beer garden got the buggy up the few stairs with a struggle , then the most obnoxious member of staff approached us and said you have to leave no kids allowed she was so rude , we didn't realise kids weren't allowed she seen us walk through the bar and her attitude was disgusting , will not be going in there ever again even without a child disgusting

I used to love this place, the staff were nice and had amazing pizza. But their staff members are so miserable, and didn’t call last orders which meant that she effectively told us to finish our drinks within 5 minutes because she wanted to close up. Bit weird. If they still had pizza then it would bump this review up… we ended up going to Gingerinos in Ouseburn, MUCH better.

A great place to meet for a few drinks before or even after the Newcastle game super staff and loads of different drinks well priced to outside seating is a bonus when the sun shines

This was the place to be after Sam Fender last Saturday. We sat outside, got served reasonably quickly. Staff friendly despite the large numbers arriving for a drink 🍻

This is an excellent place with the friendliest people you'll ever meet anywhere. I think I've been there every day since I flew in from Austin. There's pretty much guaranteed to be some doggies around to pet as well!

Absolutely disgusting service booked a table for 7.30 still only had 1 drink and no food it's now 8:15. They didn't even have a food menu to give us to choose from

Awesome, quirky bar, with a great selection of beer and spirits! Very reasonably priced, such as two cocktails for £10, I had an espresso martini which was very tasty. The sort of place you could go for a cozy drink or a more lively session. I noticed they offered food, including a good variety of vegan options. Staff very friendly!

Really friendly staff. Popular student place. Food is really nice and not expensive.

Had the worst experience thanks to this barman and his manager (on the right). There were only five of us in there sitting at the bar, I went to the toilet and on my return the bar man had poured away the half pint I had. I complained and the manager came over to me and basically fronted me, and refused to to pour me back my drink (he could do with sorting out his Halitosis), and so I ended up buying another round. I decided to take a picture of him so as I could put a complaint in and make sure it was directed at the right person. He then called the bouncers who kicked me out for taking a pic! Even worse I couldn't finish that drink either!! Avoid at all costs, I was having a great time in Newcastle on my first visit, but this man should not work in a customer facing role and I spent over £50 in there. Shocking.

£19.35 for 2 vodka mixer and it wasn’t even decent vodka couldn’t drink it it was that bad just glad the atmosphere made up for it

The music and vibe of the place are together just perfect

Love this place music is amazing and the vibe is so good! Shoutout to the security guard near the stage that loves his job! 😁

DOUBLE VODKA AND JUICE £4 which is cheap compared to other nightclubs. I didn't like most of the music and atmosphere was good.

As others have said quite expensive in fact it was our last drink of night and the most expensive of all the previous bar we visited, however the young girl who served us was very pleasant but don't think we will be rushing back there.

Came here as part of a stag do. Had only been to two bars prior, but arrived here and it was initially a good laugh.. until however (as seen on cctv) a bouncer put a 60+ year old within our party on the floor and we had to separate the two as it was in an extremely violent manner. While escorting him out ourselves to move on elsewhere and resolve the ‘issue’ a number of us received a punch (myself included, in the jaw and throat by another bouncer, short and bald) leaving us on the door step with the police who had supposedly been involved in a number of incidence here before at this ‘bar/club’. Would not recommend if with a group. Stereo typical bouncers that abuse their position and ruin the experience of what has so far been a great and friendly city. You will only have to see the cctv to know so.

Welcoming bar with a good choice of cask and keg, with the environment feeling inviting and comfortable. It's hard to see the beer choice though if customers sit in front of pumps, needs a list on a blackboard or Untappd perhaps. But, nonetheless, a lovely venue and would recommend.

Large selection of craft beers the bar is pretty cozy cool decor

This has been the place we end up every night out in Newcastle. We might do a dozen pubs in Neville St, but always end up in the Head. Great spot in a great town!

Just perfect place for great beer at a fair price. I finished my night out at the Head of Steam after visiting a lot of places. Btw atmosphere was really cool. There is a well stocked bar upstairs with craft beer and local microbrewery cask ales which rotate regularly. Downstairs, there is often live music or a club night, especially on weekends. The bottle selection is reliably good.

Great friendly atmosphere with some cracking beers. Really enjoyed our late night beers in a relaxed bar on a Friday evening.

Chain places wouldn’t really be my thing, but I absolutely loved head of steam!!!! They do fab cocktails. Craft beers and some really good food and I just LOVED their interior, such W cool vibe!!!!

Boring and Bar staff over charging for non existent drinks, thankfully called them out on it 3 times. If you steal from sober people, trust me they notice....

A geet canny wetherspoons reet in the middle of the toon, nipped in for a bit scran, i got scampi chips and mushy peas, i was absolutely hank so hoyed it doon me gregory peck fast as owt like! Me wife got mixed grill and she gave me some onion rings and a sausage and now am canny stuffed but we both enjoyed our meals 😋

As Paulicarus would expect, this Wetherspoons is both a Cask Marque and 2025 CAMRA Good Beer Guide pub. It is the March Real Ale Festival and for the first time ever I am in a Spoons serving all 30 real ales at the same time ... Insane! I had a pint from Jersey Liberation brewery. A 3.8 % Amber Ale St Clem. £2.15 .. less my 50p CAMRA voucher. Large upstair bar as well. Outdoor seating to the side. Very busy on a March Tuesday early evening..

Great value food and drink. Pizza and unlimited tea, coffee or hot chocolate for approx £10! Or a couple of pound more for an alcoholic drink. Saturday afternoon was busy but we got a seat and the atmosphere was good. Service was quick and friendly.

Lively & busy place by shoppers, city workers & specially by students. this place always has a buzz about it. A great place for anyone who likes to people watch 😝. You don't have to wait in a queue for ordering something if u have their app. Service was quick, even on a busy Friday afternoon. Food was hot n always same quality as usual.

Great place to catch up with friends and family. The prices for drinks and food are very affordable. I won’t be too fussy on the quality of food, as you get what you pay for. Handy location and wide selections of beers on taps. Good bargain breakfast and nice for morning coffee with thinking time (yes, free refills 👍🏻). Free WiFi of course.

A great place to breakfast and only a short 10 minwalk to the central station and near the Haymaket bus station. We'll laid out and as always a great menu and drinks on offer.Very busy I gather on evenings and popular with football fans with St James's Park a short walk away.

Quite good for a Wetherspoons pub. Very large building, lots of outdoor seating and a good choice of drinks. I know 'Spoons pubs have a bit of a habit of being a hike away and upstairs ... This place you almost need a SatNav!

Brewdog is always my favourite place for a good craft IPA. Staff are always really friendly and have good knowledge on the drinks. They do amazing deals such as the cocktail tasting session, after 4pm discount on Sundays and much more.

I attended the Beer School yesterday and had a thoroughly entertaining 2 hours. Plenty of beers to try, and expertise to talk you through it. Rowan was obviously fascinated by the whole brewing process and a massive asset to the company. This all added up to a very enjoyable experience. Spot on 👍

I don't visit there often enough. I should do as Brewdog is my favourite brand of ale. Good selection Brew Dog ales as well as other drinks (Spirits etc) Decent Food menu aswell

Can only think of one pizza I’ve ever had that was worse than that, takes some doing in 40 years of pizza eating to even register but it was absolutely gaff. 7 napkins later and still two slices of slop left. Handy I was starving or there’s be a whole lot more wasted. Beers alright.

Loved the beers, wide range of choice to suit everyones eclectic taste. Tasters were available before purchasing. Staff were incredibly helpful and very knowledgeable on the beers.

Fantastic service, totally unsure of what we wanted, the girl serving was very patient & polite. The drinks were really tasty & unusual, definitely worth trying 😁

I finished the hadrianswall path today and I found this place, great pizza, good service.

Great way to escape to another time in this old watering house. Newcastle United paraphernalia is the mainstay of decoration for obvious reasons, but the pub is still old school for an area that is modernising. Fun fact: apparently it was so named for the strawberry plantations that used to be near it. Nuns from the local convent use to grow strawberries for strawberry wine...

Gordie's spiritual home, as far as pubs go. Warm welcoming with loads of fab memorabilia to gaze at while supping your pint.

Great pub, lots of nice ales, NUFC memorabilia all over. Worth going if a Toon fan

Top class pub. Great atmosphere a must for any Newcastle fan

Remember running past the pub in 1973 being chased by a load of geordies and had a journey home on a coach with no windows. How times have changed, its so welcoming and friendly and the Geordies still take no prisoners, they're the most welcoming people you can imagine. A great selection of ale and lager with the amazing pictures and football memorabilia

Be aware of their drink time-limit policy. On a quiet Sunday, while locals visits other nearby competitors (Shark, Stack, Shearers) there is now a time limit for you to finish your drink before they ask you to order another one. A decade of drinking in this pub, but will sadly be drinking elsewhere now.

Brilliant pub. Staff are outstanding. Great location for St James' Park but even better on non match days. Nice vibe, really friendly staff.

First visit here. Paulicarus took the only real ale, the house beer by Wylam brewery. Enjoyed it. A wrap around bar just off the Bigg market. Popular with TV sport; Cheltenham week.Toilets to rear. Almost pis8sed them, not well signposted.

Great bar, great prices and always busy. One of the best pubs in Newcastle

Hidden gem. Called for a drink. Great atmosphere. Very busy. Cheap prices. Highly recommended

Great bar very low prices for drink, everytime we visit Newcastle we go there.

Have always loved this pub .. ever since I was in my late teens till now (I’m 54 🤣🍻) .. this has a great mix of people and no matter the day or time you come in the atmosphere is always welcoming and friendly .. the bar staff are characters too and are very funny when you get to know them!

Far too expensive for what it offered. You don't like Thai or foreign cookery you've had it. If you have food problems, eg, diabetes, gluten free I don't think it would be a help either. They're too interested in getting their moneys worth from you than the other way round.

Great pub just off the Bigg market. Very busy and lots of local ‘characters’

We are staying in the hotel connected and ate our evening meal in here. The food wad delicious, we had burgers and cocktails. Our waitress Georgina was lovely and her service was excellent, fantadtic member of the team :) Edit: I took a few chips of my partners plate just incase people think the portion size is small it absolutely wasnt.

Popped into Shark Club Gastro Bar in Newcastle for lunch with a mate, and it was a proper treat! Their wings are the star- tender, juicy, and perfectly marinated. We split a platter with Korean and BBQ flavors, both absolute bangers. Couldn’t resist the steak bites either—succulent and packed with flavor. Priced around £15-£20 for the lot, it’s great value. The staff were dead friendly, keeping the vibe upbeat in this lively, modern gastro bar. One tip: avoid match days unless you love a packed house—it gets swarmed with footie fans! Perfect spot near the city center for a casual bite. Highly recommend for a top-notch pub lunch—just plan around Newcastle United games!

Highly recommend going on Wednesday if you're looking for chicken wings. 20 chicken wings with 2 different sauces for £14. Service was great. We didn't have a reservation but thankfully we're able to still dine. Seems like it's better to make sure you have a reservation

I've always loved coming to Shark Club. The food is consistently top-notch, and the wait staff are friendly and professional. It’s been one of my favourite spots for a long time. However, this recent visit was deeply disappointing. The security staff, particularly one with a long beard, was extremely rude and completely out of line. Basic courtesy and professionalism were clearly lacking. It might be worth taking a page from your colleagues over at Stack, who know how to treat customers with respect. This experience has unfortunately overshadowed what has otherwise been a great track record with Shark Club. Great food alone isn't enough; service matters just as much. I truly hope this is addressed.

awesome time at Shark Club! The service was great, shoutout to Matty. He was super friendly, attentive, and really made the whole experience stand out. Went the extra mile to make sure we had a good time. Highly recommend this spot, good vibes great service. Hopefully back soon.

Wings Wednesdays and Fridays. 10 wings for £4.90. Many flavours to choose from. Jack Daniels wings are the best. Must book to get seated as its always busy on these days. Not the most attentive staff but all are nice and friendly. Love the place. Edit: There’s been a little refurb inside and prices are a little bit more these days. It’s cleaner than it once was but everything above still stands. Only thing that I can point out is that staff need to be more attentive to customers in for food. It’s hard to catch their attention with the way it’s lay out. I highly recommend this place though for wings!

It is less good. Wings have lost the magic sprinkle they used to have. Decent beer, not a great selection. Service is not great either. With the wings you dont get celery or carrots. Sad times. NFL is on with sound probably until the football is back.

Popped in on a Sunday around 5pm before getting my train home. Had a pint of Oak Cream IPA (£5) and a half of their exclusive Cleaver Chimp (£1.80). Two delicious beers, I’ll be back. Homely interior with loads of character. Games, piano, cool music, some what appeared to be regulars. Friendly and efficient staff. Good accessibility, door isn’t automatic and there might be a ridge. Not sure about toilets.

Lovely pub. Good size, very friendly and helpful and a great beer selection. If you sit at the front, near the window they even have a guitar you can strum on. Will definitely be going back there next time I visit Newcastle for a drink.

Good selection of beers however on Sundays some kegs were empty and not replaced. Staff friendly and good space to sit and drink. Good music and good volume. Upstairs unavailable on this visit. Will happily return and definitely recommended. My wife has advised that the ladies toilets are spotless 👍

Craft ale pub with great selection of beers ciders and also bottled drinks It was quite quiet when we visited (mid week and poor weather) so I must return when it gets more lively. Centrally situation down from the Central station an Tokyo bar

First time at this micro pub, visited here as they sell flat cider and handy walk from the hotel. Nice selection of real ales and three ciders.

Micropub. Bar + up stairs level. 6 h/pulls. Real ales + craft + ciders. Comfortable seating. Happy staff.

Very good Newcastle micropub located in a railway arch not far from Central Station. Six cask ales on handpump when I last visited including a stout.

Paulicarus tells me that 20 years ago my wife n brother-in-law came in here before a Newcastle v Sunderland game. They were outnumbered 100 - 1. A bit quieter today and nobody wearing red and white stripes to cause trouble. A choice of 5 real ales. I took a Cullercoats 3.8% Shuggy Boat Blond. Very good. Wife now on wine with Paulicarus. Lovely pub interior. Henry Hotspur ( A Percy family son ) was a famous knight who died at the battle of Shrewsbury in 1403 after Henry IV usurped Richard II in 1399. ( see Shakespear.) Henry V survived an arrow in the face and went on to win at Agincourt. ( again see Shakespear!) A Cask Marque pub that does toasted Stottie Cakes. ( giant north east bread buns...made Greggs of Gosforth the giant they are today.) Ladies toilet upstairs.

Scène is decent. Selection of pints is great. Don’t expect any food after 6pm tho, since they turn off the oven when it’s a slow evening :(

Good beer, great pizza.

An amazing bar! Absolutely lovely decor and we'll managed. Service was brilliant.

Perfect venue for me and my wife’s yearly excursion to town lol, super friendly staff and shoutout to Able who helped me to locate the train station after a few too many!

Perfect place to have food or just pop in for a pint. Very well positioned

Didn't have food just drinks nice friendly atmosphere good prices 👌

A super Micro bar in a basement off Eldon Square. Paulicarus loved the real ale selection. Apparently there is outside space to the rear and tables on the square when weather permits. A CAMRA 2025 Good Beer Guide entry. Busy in our visit.

Hidden gem! Great place to have a quiet pint. Great selection of craft beers. Love the duck theme throughout the pub. Good service! I will definitely be back upon my next stay in Newcastle!

This is my new favorite city centre spot after a day of shopping. We only discovered it after watching a YouTube video about cool pubs in Newcastle. We must have walked by it 100 times. Every time we go in now there’s a new great selection of beer on tap and cask. We usually go in the afternoon and it’s always been quiet, and there’s ample outside seating.Not a bad spot to sit this summer while your kids are watching a movie in the Eldon square grassy area…

A great little bar, near the main shopping area of Newcastle. A little tricky to find but worth it. Great selection of beers.

Great little local beer bar. Small and intimate inside, with nice decor of barrels hanging from the ceiling. The staff were really friendly and the drinks were reasonably priced. They had lots of local ales on tap and several Belgian beers by the bottle. Indoor and some outdoor seating.

A terrific cellar bar with an eclectic range of beers. 🇺🇦 service was as good as it gets 👍🏻

Excellent micropub in the basement of a Georgian terraced house near Newcastle's Greg's Monument. Five cask beers on handpump when I visited including a mild. Lots of outdoor seating at the front and in the partly covered garden to the rear.

The drinks are not great at all. Ordered a classic cosmo as it states their bartenders can make 36 different ones. The cranberry was very very watered down as I asked for extra as the cosmo came out orange and had no taste and they clearly manually added water to the carton to make it last. They had used random brine for the martini and the waitress told you it probably would not be nice an after she had made it and brought it over and she was right! However the staff are lovely, friendly and accommodating

The Exchange is a wonderful speakeasy style bar right in the middle of Newcastle that is tucked away just off Northumberland Street. (It used to be the Purple Bear and before that the Northumberland Arms). You enter through and old style "phone box" and step down I to a wonderfully decorated, quirky pub. Everything about it fabulous. The menu is limited, for good reason, as everything on it is of the highest quality and the choice of beers and cocktails is excellent. The service is also top class and in my recent visit Emily and in particular, Charlotte were fabulous. I always try and pop in when I am in Newcastle and it is definitely highly recommended.

Called in on a Saturday afternoon. Nice clean place but very few customers. No atmosphere at all. May be better when busy but I won't be there

The service was absolutely fantastic, from the moment I walked in. The gentleman who seated me and took my order was brilliant. The food arrived quickly and hot. I got the fish tacos, calimari and some fries. The lime mayo with the calimari and the Cajun corn on the taco were the highlights for sure and the fries were very tasty and crispy. The tacos were missing a hit of something and the batter on the calimari was a little too thick and didn't feel delicate, but very happily ate it all. For the cost, service, atmosphere and most of all, staff, I would definitely recommend and will be back myself.

This is a great little find. The venue is underground. The door into the venue is opened by pushing the button on the side. There have been football games playing on the screens the last few times I have been here. There have always been enough table to sit at. The costs of the drinks is ok. It's a good venue to visit when you are on the lash.

Funky bar / restaurant in the middle of Newcastle. Fab drinks, lovely food, great staff & atmosphere

Lovely bar decent drinks range kitchen gad closed by the time I got there and it was quiet but would defo recommend it

Overall a very nice experience. Had a Caesar salad and an incredible French Martini recommended to me and made by a nice bartender, Brandon. Fun atmosphere, very pretty with it being right on the riverside with lots of sunlight. Would go again.

We were there for Bottomless Brunch ...food lovely though was surprised by the syrup and bacon in the flatbread ...was expecting back bacon and nothing on bread...drinks were plentiful and great selection to choose from and service from Barnaby in particular wss fabulous...he was so friendly and helpful

Visited on a stunning day and made the most of the outdoor seating area right by the river – such a lovely spot. Drinks were reasonably priced and arrived super quickly after ordering via the QR code. Really efficient and friendly service made it a great experience. Perfect place to soak up the views with a drink in hand!

Me and my partner visited Pitcher & Piano on Friday and Sunday evenings, the service and was amazing, the staff were friendly and attentive. Mo who was our server did a fantastic job, polite, friendly, attentive and professional. Would recommend to pop in for afternoon, or evenings drinks with nibbles. Amazing environment to relax with family or loved ones to enjoy a great view over quayside!

Came in and asked last minute if we could do brunch and Emma was so helpful and sorted us out straight away despite it being busy. Food was so good and service was amazing, was never left without a drink. Would really recommend this brunch and hopefully you’ll get Emma as your server!

Great food and service, shared 3 small plates and a dessert and was enough as a light snack between 2. Niamh was lovely. Thanks.

Great food & amazing service! Had a lovely meal at Pitcher & Piano Newcastle. The food was delicious and came out quickly, with plenty of great options to choose from. Our server, Esther, was fantastic — really friendly, attentive, and made us feel super welcome. Great atmosphere too. Will definitely be back!

Went for bottomless brunch yesterday. The burger was lovely, really well cooked and the many many awkward adaptations to the menu were accommodated for our very fussy party! The drinks were plentiful and our server was fantastic. She really went above and beyond to ensure we had a brilliant evening. All the staff were good, very friendly and helpful but she went the extra mile to ensure everything was perfect. The only downside was how loud the music was (yes I sound like an old fart!) At times it was too loud to have any kind of conversation, at least there were some good songs played!! Overall, definitely worth a visit, fantastic value for money and brilliant service.

steven and david were absolutely brilliant, the service was so quick and they were so kind to us, the food was great and they were rapid on the drinks and brilliant to talk to, thank you so much for a brilliant night!

Amber was the best ever! drink after drink on bottomless made it so worth it! The food was lovely and service was even better! great to chat about things we had in common (the summer i turned pretty) and get lots of drinks too! she is so nice and the best waitress!!!!

We went for a bottomless brunch our server (Amber) was attentive, always checking things were ok she was doing her best to make sure food amendments went through correctly, drinks were served efficiently and we definitely got out moneys worth.

Amber was amazing, she served us for our bottomless. Always had a drink and asked if everything was ok. Amber was amazing with our allergies and reassured with the kitchen. Amazing, thank you!

Keagan was absolutely amazing, totally recommend for bottomless brunch! drinks were fast and delicious and since it was my friends birthday they came out with a sparkler. At the end we got two more rounds of drinks. Thank you so much guys!!!🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻

Amber was absolutely amazing at hosting our bottomless brunch. She was so attentive and kind. What a lovely girl. She checked in with us so many times to make sure we had enough drinks etc. what a lovely girl and absolutely made our visit. Thank you so much

An incredible experience! Food was heavenly. Service was gentle and beautiful. Atmosphere was lovely. This place hits all the right notes. Their eventual goal is to elevate the customer's experience. They look at you as humans who deserve rest, great food, tender care and the best experience for the palate. If I didn't live across the world, I would goo there regularly. By far, my best ever restaurant experience, ever, in Europe.

We chose Lolas for a private function and had the perfect space and service. Aiden and his team did a fabulous job of getting everything arranged for us and Charlotte behind the bar was great too! All 29 of us had an amazing time and the buffet was absolutely delicious! Thank you so much for making our special evening even more special! 🙏🏼✨️

Spent my birthday meal here and oh wow!! the cocktails were amazing! the burgers were so so good! i had a tickle the pickle burger and loved it! the triple cooked chips that came with it were fab and tasted homemade for sure, my friend only had a side of the ultimate mac and cheese as she had already eaten but my goodness it was huge! the staff were lovely, friendly and welcoming and the surrondings just gorgeous, will definitely be back and soon!

I had not returned for years because the music used to be so loud to the point you couldn't enjoy talking to the people you went out to see, however was so relieved when I did and this was not the case. I have always been a big fan of the food and I'm pleased to feel I can return and enjoy this again. It is lovely inside and you do feel like you're going 'out out' when visiting :)

Amazing and relaxing interior, perfect for dates, fine dining vibe restaurant and bar, food was ok, baby got back burger was dry, and cheesesteak rolls were ok

Great burgers, and winners of so many battles of the burgers for a reason - it’s easy for mist burgers to taste similarly but these ones are quite unique from each other. Cocktails are amazing as well, very well made and sometimes come in fun glasses/cups. The interior has recently changed quite a lot but the menu and food are just as great as before.

Couldn't recommend the place enough. Came in on a busy Saturday (match day too) and the food and service was top tier. Staff were so attentive and accommodating, especially with an awkward dietary requirement - couldn't sing the staff's praises enough. Will definitely be back !

The fries were good, but the vegan fish was… just not it. Plus, the two small slices of tofu [vegan fish] definitely weren’t worth the price. On another visit, we had to wait over an hour for two bowls of soup, which was frustrating. That said, they do have nice nachos! The place itself has a really nice vibe, with great interior design and music that adds to the atmosphere. It’s also located in a fantastic area!

Lovely little spot for a pint, especially on a day like today when the sun is shining. It was quite busy but what else can you expect with such nice weather, and a Saturday lunch time at that! A little on the expensive side at £5.95 a pint for a cider, so while it was nice, I probably wouldn't rush back. Excellent service too, especially with how many people were there. I would recommend getting there as early as possible in order to get a table as they fill up quick. We were lucky to get one as we arrived just prior to opening.

Good vibes but small portions for food annd fish n chips is not good, not even sure what it’s meant to be as a vegan substitute. Burgers are crap. Beers are good that’s it.

Great vegan roast, do wish maybe there was one more vegetable instead of two types of potatoes! Sticky toffee pudding was nice, did not enjoy the custard, had a weird powdered taste/mouth feel. Really lovely pub with nice decor and ambience. Good prices for the food too.

Absolutely love coming here, I was just getting over an illness so the food here was perfect for helping me recover 🥳 The fish and chips were incredible and the "chicken" patty had a great taste 👍

Only good thing was the weather today, everything else was abysmal. 1 Main course, 1 from kids menu, extra portion of chips, pint and half a shandy £41 WOW!! All followed by service with the attitude, really bad taste of the what I was told is Staropramen beer (everything but or they haven't cleaned pipes in really long time) and food that was mediocre at most. This is by far the worst place in every aspect we have ever been in really long time now. Needless to say wouldn't come back and wouldn't recommend it at all.

Fully vegan food offering, great to have a choice instead of limited to one or two (if you're lucky) items on a menu Not high end but tasty, filling and well presented.
