This former post office was built in 1928 and served Gosforth and district for more than 50 years. The premises are now named after a respected doctor who had a hand in the early development of Gosforth. At the end of the 18th century, Job Bulman returned from India and built the now-demolished Coxlodge Hall as his home. He also sold plots of land along High Street to build the cottages which were long known as Bulman Village.
Food good for the price. Its also an evening meeting place for drinks too, so can be quite full from early evening. Good staff. Has its own outdoor smoking zone which saves smokers from the wind as it enclosed with tables and chairs too. Update: We went back on an afternoon visit. The food was just as good as last time. Was the place half empty or half full? I seen it as half full. You can feel the positive attitude of the serving staff too. Update. Spent a few hours here tonight. I didn't expect ot to have as many customers on a windswept rainy night. Lovely staff as usual. Cocktails 🍸 🍸 2 for £12 so had a couple of my fav monitors mmmm
Hot breakfast on warm plates, accompanied with unlimited hot tea / coffee, all reasonably priced. Very clean and warm - especially nice on a cold day. Always great service from staff. Love The Job Bulman.
I go there with my mother who is ninety. It suits us both as she likes to be near the window as she is almost blind and likes bright light so she can see. She is a meat eater and I am vegan so the menu suits us both. The atmosphere is good and like any Wetherspoons it is cheap which is always a consideration.
Does the job when it comes to standard wetherspoons food. Definitely a must to order via the app to your table as the bar gets very busy, but the drinks and food came quickly and the food was hot. Can recommend their burger and drink deal as very good value for money. The only issue is the place itself, it's very dirty and there are a lot of flies in the bar area, the whole place just feels grimey. The staff were trying their best as well but there were lots of dirty plates piled up on tables as customers cleared up after previous customers.
A classic JDW, this building was originally a post office. Nice quick service for breakfast. Plenty of beers and ciders on draft. A very rare spoon with toilets on the ground floor, no stairs to negotiate!
