Ordered 4 meals, very good portions and very much "pub" food, nothing super fancy. All tasted good, also vegetarian options... Great service, friendly staff
Friendly Inn with good drinks and food. Some tables outside and you can enjoy a long evening sun at the terrace.
Liked it a very pleasant and enjoyable 😉 way to end what had been a brilliant walk. From Newburn to Wylam. That I just did on my own. The forecast was not the best, but it was a wonderful day sunny and warm.🫠🌞🥵🌞 I had a mince and onion pie with chips, garden peas, and gravy. Also, 2 pints of Wainwright Delish and delightful!!!!!!!!! A very enjoyable visit. 😀😃😄😁😆😅🤣😂🙂🙃🫠😉😊😇☺️🥲😋🤗🤓😎🤩
Booked an evening meal for Royal British Legion Riders, 25 of us. Meal was excellent and staff bent over backwards to accommodate us. I can't recommend this place enough. Thanks to all staff
choice of meal- mince and dumplings with mashed potato , and a steak and ale pie ( in a dish) with a filo pastry topping. Big portions and very reasonable prices. Was disappointing however. More gravy than steak in the pie. Very salty due to gravy being thickened up with gravy salt. Vegetables tasteless. Couldn't eat the pastry lid as it just fell to pieces on touch. Dumpling very poor with unusual taste and texture. Overall, this pub isn't going to win any awards for its cooking. The service from the barperson was good and there were several customers with dogs so testifying to previous posts about being dog friendly.
