Went after a movie with my friend and Brother for lunch and absolutely loved it. It has an amazing atmosphere and and I love the decor, very quirky. Loved the dog pics and the little hidden bar. It was very busy but only waited a few minutes to be served. Even though staff were busy, they were happy, friendly and chatty. Wide range of drinks, loved Alfie Blonde would recommend. A good and wide range of food with lots of interesting veggie options. Food arrived reasonably quickly as the kitchen staff must have been rushed off their feet. All credit to them. I had a giant stuffed yorkie. Everything was cooked to perfection. All red hot and fresh. Love that they use local suppliers. My Brother and friend had the burger and chips the portions are huge and everything is so well cooked and presented. Tables were cleared quickly. Would highly recommend. Close to a theatre and shops. Toilets were clean and well maintained. Dog friendly.

As a regular to this lovely pub we've always had a great experience. Unfortunately, last night, October 30th was far from it. Waited over 1hr 40mins for food. When asked where it was, we were told it's because it was busier than usual. Annoying thing about it other customers who ordered food after us in the queue had eaten and left the pub and we where still waiting for hours.

Dinner was OK. Disappointed with the roast potatoes that tasted like they had been frozen and re cooked so they weren't crispy. The beef was nice. Would I come back probably not. It's was nothing to write home about.

We called in on route to City Hall for a quick drink before a gig. It was relatively busy for a Thursday evening, but we were served nice and quickly by a lovely lady. My cocktail was slightly pricey but well worth it, tasted amazing! It’s a great pub, got a really cosy feel to it and the decor is class. Would highly recommend.

Staff are nice and have a good atmosphere, but the food lets it down big time. Whilst the pie was good, they sent chips instead of fries with the burger, and the burger supposedly being pulled BBQ style wasn't the sort of thing expected, instead just being a patty. The puddings, though, were the biggest letdown - the ice cream was effectively an icey sorbet, the Brownie underwhelming, and the sticky toffee pudding an overly dense stodge of unheated substance, that you struggled to get a spoon into, covered in an overly sweet sauce - we left the majority. I'm not sure if there's a new chef or management since previous visits, or perhaps the kitchen was just having a bad day, but sadly, it's put me off dining there again.

I went for some food late lunchtime. It wasn’t full, but there were a couple of guys with laptops operating some sort of employment agency interviewing people? Anyway, I went for the Cajun burger with fries. The slaw was lovely, but the burger, the six chips you got with it and the two onion rings tasted of nothing. Cost £20

My girlfriend and I had a few hours to spare before our coach so we called in for Sunday dinner and I'm so glad we did. Service was impeccable and the food was out of this world. Yorkshire puddings were like clouds and they melted in my mouth. There wasn't too many people in at the time we were in but I'm giving it 5 stats for the atmosphere anyway. We will be going back again.

I love the ambiance and atmosphere of the City Tavern however the last couple of times I have been there the menu has been poor. I have an allergy to chilli and always have problems eating out as lately all menus across the board have high levels of chilli or are highly spiced. It has become incredibly difficult to find anything on a menu which does not have chilli as an ingredient or flavoring. I was at the City Tavern a couple of weeks ago and told the waitress when I ordered food that I was allergic to chilli as I always do when out for a meal.I was told that the dish I ordered could be served without a chilli dressing so as there was very little to choose that didn't have chilli I opted for that dish. Unfortunately when my food arrived there was a small container on the plate of chilli dressing. I was astounded as the chilli dressing could have contaminated the rest of the food leaving me to be quite ill. I immediately brought this to the managers attention as mistakes like this should never happen and could potentially result in a flare up for myself possibly leading to hospital treatment and a potential law suit against the owners. Needless to say I will never eat at City Tavern again.

A good old school pub in Newcastle. A typical range of 6 new craft ales and stouts about every 2 weeks, with good portions of food to back it up. Dog friendly with the staff loving to meet the dogs as well, rare to find in the city centre. Down the road from the O2 City Hall, and 2 minutes away from the Haymarket metro. One of my favourites in Newcastle.

Having had a lovely Sunday lunch for Mother's day (which i highly recommend to family & friends), I booked a table for Father's day. (I ordered the beef). The food arrived, barely warm, gravy cold, middle of Yorkshire doughy. I asked for the meal to be heated up and there was barely any difference when it came back. I was offered a fresh meal but who wants a third attempt? My plate was collected (almost full), I paid my bill in full and at no point was a discount offered. I know I could have asked but that's not the point. We won't be back for food 😒

Food OK - but the pies are not 'homemade' - we had the pork and leek pie and it was more a case of 'stew with a lid'. The pastry was just a production line oval of flaky pastry that got everywhere and hadn't met the filling until they were plated up. Best part of the meal was the chips. Very overpriced for what it was.

It was fine, nothing drastically wrong, however some clear issues. I spent 10 quid on a dark and stormy which the barman needed a video tutorial to make, it also took two minutes to order as the staff needed to finish their well mannered discussion about who made a mistake on a food order. No one discussed the waitress eating chips off a plate on the way to a customer though which feels like the bigger issue. For 10 quid you can go to the Alchemist or the Botanist and have an artist make you something really special, probably do that instead.

Not good. Will not be returning. Waited almost 40mins before I had to chase food up to then be faced with the Chicken Burger which consists of a lot of grease or oil in the batter and zero taste. The chips were quite nice though. Nachos and Chilli, not great no flavour other than the sharp embrace of spice now and then. Chicken skewers, over spiced and again not a great amount flavour.

Very poor service, ordered food, after a 25 minute wait went and asked how long before food would arrive, I was told 25 minutes was normal and because we ordered for 4 ( 2 sandwiches, fajitas and a portion of pancakes) could be why it took a little longer. 15 minutes later still no food, asked again , manager said he would get back to me, waitress came and said it would be 5 or 6 minutes, 20 minutes later still no food, went to cancel my order, manager asked if I'd paid as order had not gone through, I showed him debit from my bank, he finally agreed to reimburse my money for food only. Half hearted apology.
