Black Bull in Newcastle upon Tyne

Stopped in for a quick pint and some food, great pub. Its a chain but the food was great and even thou a small plate, a decent portion (buffalo fries). Nice, clean friendly pub with good food and friendly staff. Sorted!

Great atmosphere. Great staff , always friendly and welcoming , our local pub , often come up for food , my daughter has allergies and they are always helpful and conscious of this.

Went into this pub for the first time food's okay service was okay as it wasn't that busy all that I could say is you's need a window cleaner desperately shocking

It’s a pub with inexpensive pub grub. In a suburb of Newcastle. Nice people, acceptable food. Bit rough for a posh Southerner like me, but the kids didn’t care as there was plenty of brown food available.

Jack behind the bar is an absolute legend. Great vibes and makes the bar a happier place. Cheers.

A Christmas catch up with friends and we booked the festive fayre menu. We had a great time and the service was top notch, we had Jack and Keiron who looked after us and as we were all Deaf they looked after us well and communicated clearly or by text on their mobiles to say what they wanted. The food was fantastic and was cooked by Flynn so a lovely night was had all around. Will go back again soon as atmosphere was so relaxing and lovely.

Great food, and great service, especially from Katie Claire Kieran and gage

Very friendly atmosphere with excellent staff. Keiron went all out to make sure we had a good time. Didn't try the food bit it looked amazing when other customers were served, we will be back.

Staff attitude was uncaring. Wouldn't go back.

Great pub, great community involvement, spoke to Emma a lot about the great work she’s being doing for McMillan, people make great pubs, she a star!

Jack & Ellie were fantastic, food was great. Will definitely be back for another drink from the great bar staff (Jack and Ellie) thanks!

Served by Nicole and Emma lovely pub but pricey

The Black Bull is very clean and staff are realy friendly. Nicole the barmaid excelled at customer service along with the other staff.

Lovely food and service, good by Claire and service by Nicole and Katie

Food was of a great quality and size. Bar staff friendly, especially Steve and Nicole.

Went at lunchtime with my Brother and Husband. Had Katsu chicken strips with chips and peppers. Only second time there, but will definitely be back.

Today the food was better & good value for money...katsu laden chips 😋, serve good too

Horrible lugar con gente horrible te recomiendo que nunca vayas. Un hombre local merodeando con un gran grupo de otros hombres en la puerta me detuvo para decir lo siento, solo se permite la entrada de mujeres esta noche - luego me miró de nuevo y dijo ooh sorry you are a woman. Para alguien que ya está luchando con la autoestima, este es el final de una noche de fiesta y quizás salir de nuevo por algún tiempo. ¿Por qué la gente tiene que ser tan desagradable?

Excellent service from Kieran. Very tasty food and looked after our dog well with biscuits and water

Not one for leaving reviews normally but popped in the black bull for some food with family, young bar manager helped us out with table service and the lot. Will definitely be visiting again next time round.

Lo más destacado de este pub es su bar man Jack. Muchacho encantador que no podría ser más servicial y amable. Un crédito al pub que necesita elogios 👍🏻

Jack ,Katie& Kieran’s service was fantastic, food was incredible and free pint through the app was even better. Should be 100 stars, Jack was very helpful and showed me how to get the free pint excellent service from the young gentleman that you don’t normally see.

Fantástica comida y personal muy agradable. . muy recomendable. Tenía carne y pastel de cerveza y era de primera categoría 👌 Kieran nos sirvió y estaba muerto.

Jack, Steve, Kieran and Alice go above and beyond with their friendly service, making every visit enjoyable. The food is consistently great, with a menu that never disappoints. Whether you’re stopping in for a drink or a meal, the atmosphere is warm and welcoming, thanks to the excellent team. Highly recommend!

great pub, friendly staff and very good deals. especially the burger deal through the week👍🏻

Pretty decent pub, vibrant crowd. Good selection of drinks. Big screens to watch sports. The food is really well priced .. downsides was the wait for the food. 45 minutes for a burger. Still the staff were friendly and helpful. Sound place...call in of your passing.

Jack was mint satisfied all my desires class lad

Was served by lad called Jack, lovely lad, proper helpful and pours lethal pints

Was served by a class young lad called jack. Was really accommodating and helped out loads. Chesrs!

Polite, friendly staff. Fast service. Really good food! Brought our dog. Entrance filled with dog goodies. No faults.

Enjoyed a pint here today. Staff we're fantastic thank you to emma and kieran. Will be back

Called in to have a quick drink before going to a restaurant and then afterwards on my way home. Good service and friendly staff. Good range of beers other than real ales where only one was available despite 4 pumps on the bar. Shame that there was no Abbott Ale. Pub was quiet, but we had to ask for a spray and cloth to clean our own table after sitting down. We didn't so can't comment on the food.

Friendly place, good banter, nice food katsu curry is great. Fair priced. And an absolute sun trap in the summer

My Dad and I had tea (or dinner, if you prefer) we ordered 2 plates of the Salt and Pepper Chilli Chicken from the 2 mains from 13.49 selection, I had one and we shared the other. 1 plate is 9.29 anyway. My Dad had the Chicken and Ham pie as his own dish. Both meals were really nice with plenty of flavour. I had room left for pudding so I had the Jam Roly Poly pudding. Beautiful! The service was excellent from Ellie. She was cheerful, polite and efficient throughout.

🐶Love this place, always friendly, always welcoming foods great, chef is excellent and I can take the dog

Alice at the black bull is fantastic! really friendly super helpful. We will definitely be back soon for more drinks and food

Served by the lovely Emma quickly and so friendly

Alice on the bar was so friendly. Thanks for a great time

Food was amazing, all fresh! Natalie and Kieran were really lovely and give us great service!! Lovely place. Great prices for food aswell

Often come here for lunch for great food and a lovely atmosphere. Staff are always attentive, friendly and up for a laugh, would definitely recommend

Good food and good service. Cracking job flynn and jack

I came here with sister and niece we had a few games of pool and three lovely meals. The food was really nice and was quickly served. Will be definitely coming back.

Visited the pub today with a large group, Natalie had outstanding service met all our needs and more. Food was lovely and will definitely visit again.I hope Natalie gets the recognition she deserves.

Natalie was absolutely brilliant when we visited today, made us feel very welcome! Food was great too! Will definitely be back

Absolutely amazing place to eat. The service is first rate! The food was only second to its charm.

Typical foodie pub Greeted with a lovely smile staff were very polite and welcoming, but also informed me about offers that are on, so very helpful Nice pint

A great venue with very friendly staff. We have been a few times and never had a bad evening.

Great atmosphere and lovely sharing platter , we were in for the England game what a lovely pub Fab service from bar staff

Unreal pub. Came here for my birthday staff are very welcoming. Emma and natalie were stars, booked my tables and provided amazing service all night. Burgers are on a fabulous deal (buy one get one free) and all my family and friends ate them. 100% would recommend

Fast and friendly service from Laura

EMMA! Has been the most amazing server full of smiles great customer service. When I come in this bar and Emma is me server she really gives me confidence in the customer journey for green king.

Omg Laura and Emma are the best ever! What a fab bar! so friendly and helpful recommending best deals! Definitely be back these two are amazing!

Came with son and partner , ordered food at till to be told no fish ? Scampi instead , Waiter came to table to say no texan bbq sauce ? Also said no flatbread ,no hunters chicken , no lasagne ,anything else so son had to get chicken burger ? No tartar sauce as shows in picture Sadly disappointed

Had meal here today the food was lovely the service was very good the barmaid Laura went out of her way for use very helpful and friendly

Lovely food and friendly staff I would definitely come here again. Areas indoors and outdoors lovely so caters for all weather.

Thank you for making my flatbread extra spicy upon request - shout out to Natalie and Ellie 🎉🍻

Lovely lunchtime treat really tasty & just a nice size would definitely come again & staff were lovely thank you will be back

Went for lunch on Sunday but due to the overpowering smell of bleach in the pub, we had to leave before even ordering. Surely a better cleaning product could be used other than bleach.

Called in for our lunch food was lovely great atmosphere and staff are very friendly would highly recommend popping in we'll definitely go back the food was so good recommend the hunters chicken it was done to perfection well cooked and hubby had the fish n chips which he thoroughly enjoyed

Called in for a couple of drinks with my husband and my husband had the fish and chips and mushy peas and I had the hunters chicken with chips and onion rings it was absolutely beautiful the chicken breast was cooked right through and the bacon on the top was nice and crispy just the way I like it I always order that from different pubs I go to and either the bacon isn't cooked properly or the chicken has been sometimes a bit watery inside but this was the best hunters chicken I've ever had first class and my husband thoroughly enjoyed his fish and chips hats of to the chef kieran we will definitely go back for food 😋

Hi ,called into the black bull with friends for lunch today , haven't been for quite a while was really disappointed with the meal we all had Hunters chicken ,the chicken was very dry and looked like a kids portion and the cheese on top was like rubber it pulled off in one piece , 2 onion rings and salad which was just lettuce (,where was the tomato and cucumber) and a handful of chips. We use Green King pubs alot , can say we've always had a good meal elsewhere.worst meal we've had in a green king pub ,don't think we'll be going back as there's plenty of other green king pubs around the area . Sorry , Janet

Been here about 5 times now and always have food and drink 🍸 food is always beautifully cooked 🍳 lasagne I love ❤️ the black bull has the most amazing staff they are super pleasant and very efficient, this is our new go to place for food and drink 🍸 lol 😆 we love it here it's dead relaxing 😌

Natalie served a perfect pint as per usual 😊 Burgers, chips, onion rings, the whole lot was lush and quickly demolished 😊 Plus the fact it's buy one get one free makes it fantastic value for money 😊

Attended here for a drink and food with some friends. The service is very strange as the guy kept trying to clear our plates when we weren't finished. He also brought my drink without a glass which I found strange. The music was incredibly loud and you weren't able to hear the people you were sitting with. The food came out completely different from what was mentioned on the menu. We had nachos which came with freezing cold pork on top and barely any cheese (it was £10!) The chips were meant to be rosemary and were plain. The chicken was meant to have blue cheese on and had nothing. Very disappointing for the cost !

Went for lunch with my son wanted a steak no onion rings a week running got chicken tacos it was cold took it back was warmed up in microwave tacos soft and salad too disgusting

Brill place to go for a pint after finishing uni, cheap prices and brill staff

Such a chilled place to go for a few quiet ones and the food actually lush x

Steve is always really welcoming when we come in, explained the different drinks available to my friend who hadn’t been here before, always super helpful and the bar is a great place for students to get lunch as it’s just up the road from the university. Food is lovely and atmosphere is great whether on a quiet Monday afternoon or a busy match day.

Laura the barmaid has a very fresh smile! Great service

Great atmosphere and a cracking team. Always get a lovely pint. Definitely recommend!

I only went into the car park, to collect my drunken wife. It was dark but it was easy to find a space. The surface is remarkably good and the smell of food coming from the premises was really nice. I don't drink alcohol but if I did I would have a drink here.

Great pub great staff! Louise Emma and Natalie made us feel very welcome! Would definitely recommend.

Great bar, brill atmosphere, lovely staff and tasty food highly recommended 🍷🍾🥂

Great local, great staff and best tv screens for the match. Highly recommend. Cheers 🍻

Went in for a nice meal with the family, staff were very attentive and helpful and the food was great. Great atmosphere too. Will definitely visit again.

Popped in for a few drinks with some mates over Christmas an had a great time. Staff are lovely and welcoming will definitely be coming back.

Went in for the 1st time yesterday after a mate recommended it, what a great place. Had a lovely meal with the wife, great service and made to feel very welcome even though dripping wet after a walk

Black Bull is a great pub! The food is always spot on & lots of choices for drinks. The staff make you feel welcome every time you go. Excellent service!

Me and a friend came to the black bull and the staff couldn't be more helpful, the food was amazing as usual and the coffee was just right, the atmosphere was calm and the price was at good value

Visited with a group of friends and a dog intending to just have a few drinks knowing how busy pubs get so close to Christmas, the bar was a little busy but waited no more than a few minutes to get a full round and treats and a bowl of water were swiftly provided by eagle eyed manager Steve. After a few and seeing the food others around had ordered we decided to order a selection of the small plates and some sides, we were advised there may be a short wait due to the level of customers in but again we were pleasantly surprised when these were delivered piping hot to the table about 15 minutes later. Not a single complaint from any of us, it was lovely food and worked out very good value for money. The bar staff were all very friendly and attentive. We will definitely be back again soon.

Amazing friendly place as always staff are great and food was lovely

Working close by Ive been here a few time over the years 😁. Stopped off for some refreshments and food while getting bits for Xmas now I don’t want to go home to clean 😂. Nice katsu chicken , glass of wine and a love singer…. Merry Christmas everyone 🎄🥂🍾🥂

Went here for our Christmas meal, 7.99 for three courses. Absolute bargain very tasty and they also had a singer and raffle. We are going to book for next year as well. Great goor great service and cracking staff.

Great food, great staff & great atmosphere. Came here for our football teams Christmas meal and had a lovely time.

Great staff , great food , great atmosphere and service. What more can you ask for

Lovely local pub, a place we can basically call our 2nd home (spend a lot of time here) as we’re welcomed on each and every visit by staff, friends and locals in the pub we now call friends. Food is spot on, burgers and chips for our son and Katsu curry is heaven. Feel so comfortable here, never any bad atmosphere or experiences, happy pub to go to and will continue to visit. Thanks to all the Black Bull team - you’ve been amazing x

Someone who says ‘are you ok’ when I just lost may dad …. Outstanding customer service. And then to bring napkins when upset is exceptional… Jack then embraced me and made me feel so comfortable. Star employee x

Aaron was amazing, very polite and attentive!

Food portions were micro, oh and they had no steak on Thursday - which is steak night

Party of 5 for Sunday lunch. The food was outstanding allround. Service very good. The steak and ale pie and gravy was fantastic. Big thumbs up 👍

Lunch with a friend . Fab food, cooked well & came hot. Staff very nice helpfull and cheerful esp Natalie she was lovly . Car park big; WC very clean as was the whole place and it was lovly having low music in the background not blasting out . We could enjoy a quiet chat.

Served by a lad called Jack, very friendly and welcoming.

Had a great night, food v good and service from Jack, Aaron and Keiran was fantastic. Will definitely visit again

It was my 80th birthday get together with 9 of my friends on Monday. Natalie was really wonderful. Every time I visit the Black Bull everything is spot on, and the pensioners menu is really good value for money. 👍

Great food, good value and fantastic service from Natalie!

Lovely family place to eat and Natalie one of the staff was very friendly and made sure everything was ok will definitely be returning.

Great food for the price and decent pint of moretti. Server Natalie was great with our 1 year old and brought her a little toy!

Natalie and Laura were very friendly and from the start very adaptive to what we required for our booking and always supportive throughout the meal.

Aaron and Alex give great service very friendly

Undoubtedly the best pub in the area. Food is cooked quickly and precisely what you want with such a great range of fresh draught beer. The staff make this pub stand out head and shoulders above the competition. Seldom have I been made to feel as welcome by a barman like Joe or Beth and I so hope when they reopen there will be space.Very accommodating, plenty of sports on the telly and a warm community atmosphere.
