About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Great for craft beers
  • Charming
We’re big on warmth, low on fussiness: stripped wood floors, high bar stools, painted brickwork and comfy leather banquettes. Sup your pint beside our polished-oak bar or tuck yourself away in the Snug behind the frosted glass partition. You can hear yourself talk, concentrate on the crossword or nod off quietly in the corner.

To help keep everyone safe, our teams will continue to wear face masks and we'd love you to do the same when nentering and moving around the pub and dining room.

Thank you for your continued support and understanding and we look forward to seeing you.

    I am visiting Newcastle from the USA, and I really wanted an English meal. Everything my group ordered was delicious and felt like a special treat. The vast selection of beverages was a plus. I suggest making reservations in advance.

    Visiting Newcastle for only the 2nd time I remembered this pub as being excellent. It did not disappoint. The food was terrific with a large choice from the seasonal menu. Jo looked after us really well. An all round great experience.

    Good choice of food and drinks. We started off with drinks in the beer garden, a right little sun trap. We went up to the restaurant and all four decided on Sunday lunch, we asked if there a veggie option and this was happily accommodated. Three of us had the beef. The food was well presented and very tasty. The service was excellent, we felt looked after. We finished the afternoon with more drinks in the beer garden. Bar staff were excellent you didn’t wait long.
