Crows Nest in Newcastle upon Tyne - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Great pub great beer and most of all great staff, shall be back.

Great pub; good food and perfect for sport.

Getting spam calls from this establishment... They need to carry out checks as to how this is possible... Started after I placed an order with Tees Sport in the area... Is there a link? Hi Beth, I've got your number blocked so as to stop further calls. You may want to look into how this is happening from a technical perspective. I understand your concerns hence why I logged the issue. I think scammers are getting very savvy, so it would be wise to seek input from BT. thanks

It was the first time we visited we will certainly visit again.Lea was so efficient serving us she was so professional, mad us feel very welcome.

Good food, good beer at a reasonable price. What's not to like?

If I could give -1 I would! I myself work in a pub and the lady I got served by was awful and extremely rude. I then politely asked what had been done by wrong and she said “don’t come back because you’re barred” I said but explain what I’ve done and she couldn’t. Extremely unprofessional I have bar experience myself and wanted to know what was the problem?

Fantastic pub in the centre of Newcastle. Great selection of drinks & deals for both food & drink. Gareth & his team took great care of us. I can only imagine how busy this gorgeous looking boozer would be on home game day's. Maybe next time🤞👍.

Had lunch here and it was spot on! The grilled cheese toastie that I had was amazing with it being very cheesy. 10/10 from me! 😋👍

This is actually a very good and very attractive pub. Has a good core of regular business and the service is very good. Good range of drinks, prices not overly expensive

Nice bar with good selection of beers, lots of seating inside bar and seating at front and back

Lovely food . Quiet pub with outside seating . Good service and friendly

Got everything you need from cinema to food and drink

Very clean bar, friendly service, nice bar altogether.

Love this bar, best in town service from Beth is amazing as always. She is a star! Will be back!

Called in after lunch when we needed a sit-down. Interesting range of real ales and particularly ciders. Knowledgeable staff and good atmosphere.

The service was really good from Neve and Leah. The food was delicious and reasonably priced. The small plates are really good value for money and portion sizes exceeded expectations. Family and dog friendly, would definitely recommend to all.

Thank you for the great atmosphere. The drinks and food selection was as good as always. The service from Shan was faultless again. See you again!

Really delicious food, the lunch deal is really good for money when you can pick pretty much every drink with a sandwich for £10! The service was good even though it was really busy. Staff are friendly and helpful!

Proper bar with good service and an even better pint

Great bar.down from edinburgh.will defo be back.bar staff were friendly

Just a quick pint after the hopping sat outside was lovely

Thank you we will be back again next time we are in Newcastle soon.

Great pub. Excellent selection of ales, really friendly staff had a bit of banter with me, felt like a smaller local pub which was great. Some outside seating which we made use of on a lovely sunny day. Was very pleasantly surprised with this place and would be more than happy to go back.

Great service, good beer selection, better than some other close by establishments. And, I've discovered it got a beer garden round the back! Who knew!!

Pub was clean and the seats were nice. I ordered the curry chips and they were well portioned with sauce. Price was reasonable and Beth the bartender had good service. I would recommend to come here with your friends and family.

Nice cosy interior, prices are high but luckily I am a student so I get a discount which makes the pints slightly more affordable. Nice range of pints too. Don’t know about food as I haven’t ordered any but my funny little friend ordered curry chips which he said were “perfectly portioned.”

Food OK small portions for price

Good pub clean and well presented Good staff . Excellent choice of beers 🍻

Good bar. Nice atmosphere especially on a match day and a great pint of Guiness.

Great pub with good choice of beers and gins. Pleasant staff and nice atmosphere.

Nice place. Basic bar food at a reasonable price. Staff were nice. Definitely worth a visit.

Good selection of beer & more importantly put the women’s six nations on for us! Thank you will be back

Good afternoon watching the match and the grand national, especially when Newcastle won and we had the winner in the national

Food was like microwave food out of the freezer. However there was a good atmosphere. Staff friendly.

I came here with my family whilst on a trip to Newcastle. The staff were so lovely and couldn't do enough for us. Will definitely go back 🥰

We Popped in for a few drinks and were served by the lovely Neve. We really liked the friendly atmosphere in a relaxed setting

I tend to go for their food, particularly their fish and chips, of course and the odd pint, whenever I head into town on a weekend. This time I just went for a few drinks and ended up watching a football match on one of their many screens. They are a good place to go if want to watch a game. The place has a very welcoming atmosphere, and on this occassion, I must give a shout out to Leia, one of the great staff, who cheerily, made sure I didn't have to wait long for another drink. Cheers Leia. Highly recommended.

Popped in with friends for a few drinks over the weekend, staff were very very friendly and welcoming. Didn’t try the food but what I seen go by looked delicious will definitely be back to try.

Can for a few drinks before a gig at the city hall. Beth was great at recommending some real ales for me. Will definitely be back again.

Very nice staff, food came quickly and was delicious and drinks reasonably price. Highly recommend the Katsu burger. Would definitely come again.

Great place to watch all the football, drinks are an alright price and the staff are lovely. Service is impeccable, even on matchdays. Especially from Staff members Leah and Shannon, very knowledgeable on the drinks and quick service.

Great pub with a really good sports atmosphere. Children welcome and accommodating for all. Food great at good prices.

Really nice place near the Haymarket, staff were very welcoming and friendly. The food was really nice and good prices. A expansive range of drinks available.

A good environment for all, lots of screens for sports and good food and drinks range available. Staff are very helpful and made our visit hassle free with children and one wheelchair user. Highly recommend visiting!

Excellent pub with attentive and efficient staff. Food is really good and atmosphere lively probably due to mix of students/ locals/tourists. Can get ver busy on footy days so I prefer early doors!

Took my mam here for lunch with my sister following a hospital appointment. It was fairly quiet at the time we arrived and were able to find seats at a table straight away. We placed our orders at the bar and were served in reasonable time after a short wait for the food to be prepared. The bar staff were friendly and provided an excellent service to us while we were there. We will be returning again as I thought my steak and ale pie was delicious and we all enjoyed our lunch.

Exceptional service from Leah the barmaid, so friendly with customers. What a lovely girl!! Will deffo be back for more.

Great traditional pub, with great staff, Leah was exceptional with her service. Great place for the football and a bite to eat

Good bar, came in twice one night however and the supervisor (?) Declan (the guy with the mullet) was condescending to a particular member of staff on both occasions. Even if the staff member was new and didn't know what to do it didn't feel right at all. For someone supervising members of staff it just seemed like an atrocious way to deal with a potential new member of staff.

Good selection of craft and cask beers as well as a good range of Lilley’s ciders which always rotate. Really nice food at good prices too!

Group of 4,,Two of us ordered the macaroni cheese we sent them straight back was absolutely awful tasted curdled and looked disgusting too. Give the bar staff the credit they replaced the meal with something else and also given a complimentary drink but that should have never been served

HAD NEY SCRAN JUST GUINNESS PROPERLY PULLED BEFOR ECHO AND THE BUNNYMEN GIG CITY HALL AS THERE BLOODY REET RIP OFF IN CITY HALL,,AND ONLY CARD PAYMENT.

Nice pub service was a bit iffy .

Classic pub with an eclectic crowd and a decent range of drinks. Plenty of seating, decent quick food and loads of huge TVs showing sport.

Great pub, good staff, good food and great atmosphere.

Very friendly and service excellent from Gareth. As a retired RVI group ,we have lunch regularly and Gareth makes us very welcome 👍👍👍

This place always friendly, and Gareth and his colleagues are all very helpful and the food reasonably priced along with a drink. What's not to like.

Started going to the Crows Nest , Newcastle upon Tyne for lunch once a month with friends.The bar staff, especially Gareth couldn't be more accommodating, always friendly, helpful, nothing is too much of a bother for him. He's an asset to the pub.

Decent range of drinks (I had a Wylam Jakehead - the Cloud water was finished) and good for sports watching with one big screen and multiple smaller screens (I was there for Arsenal Vs NUFC 24/02/24). I didn't eat but what went passed looked good - recommended

Price/performance was completely okay. Fish and chips is recommended. Decent selection of beers. Fast service

For a Friday night in town, taking the kids to eat here was okay and could be booked in advance. The pub was busy, with what appeared to be a pub quiz going on, and our reserved table wasn't ready, as people had taken over it. The staff quickly got the table ready, but it was over 40 minutes before food was brought to our table. The staff were polite and welcoming, but without music, the overall atmosphere was of loud chatter. The heat near the bar was unbearable and we were pleased to be near the windows where it was cooler. Still, the pub is cosy, despite needing a few repairs to chairs. We ordered a range of dishes and the food was generally good, especially the 'award winning' (according to the menu) steak and ale pie. The burger was tasty and the kids meals were good, but limited. The disappointment was the accompanying veg with the pie (I've never seen such a small amount of mash on a plate) and the small volume of sides with the burger left the plate looking empty (see photos).

They have Rivet Catcher on draught so I think this place is amazing! :)

Came here on a whim and om glad I discovered this pub. What a lovely atmosphere and it feels like a wonderfully old school pub. I had the fish and chips, which were lovely and I'm not a fan of peas so didn't want them...

This is a very good city centre bar, traditional decor and a small outdoor area. It's spacious and has a good selection of ales and lagers. Very handy for a bus or metro.

It's a nice pub i will have to go again one day people are lovely

Nice proper pub serving straightforward, tasty food at fair prices.

Thank you for the great service! I accidentally ordered the wrong meal, amazingly the staff realised and asked me, rectified with no issues. Shannon and Beth were very welcoming and understanding. Very nice food, will come back, thank you!

Just popped in for a quiet pint and a snack. Lasses behind the bar very friendly/helpful, only in for half an hour but will pop back in the not too distant future, had a good feel about it

If it wasn't for Beth or Shannon I'm not sure I'd keep coming here. Amazing staff and very welcoming.

A great selection of craft and cask beers, staff are very confident when asking for recommendations. Lots of tv screens showing football and other sports.

Popped in for a bite to eat. Top place to eat. Food came out quickly and was excellent. Great lunchtime deal too. Will be back

Food was fantastic. Great for the match too.

Gorgeous place, fantastic staff. Had a local beer which was great, but a touch pricy in my opinion. I would happily return tho.

Just a pint or two after the match great beer and good atmosphere 👍

Lovely turkey pie and turkey dinner. Very polite and friendly staff. Thank you for a great visit. Would definitely recommend for drinks and dinning.

Great selection of cask ales and all very well kept. Bar staff were knowledgeable and knew how to recommend to my tastes. Found this pub via the Good Beer Guide 2023 and will definitely be back soon.

Our attention was drawn by the name Crows Nest as this is a rough translation of my name and is my wifi id 😄 and secondly because the days special was steak and ale pie, which is a relic of my Australian heritage. Loved the food and atmosphere.

Good service, atmosphere, and choice of drinks in sn old man's pub setting. I'd happily go back.

Von außen sah es ja sehr gemütlich aus. Wir waren hungrig und gingen rein. Drinnen war es eiskalt, so dass ich meine Jacke anbehielt. Wir warteten sehr lange auf die Bedienung aber niemand kam, so dass wir nach 15 Minuten unsere Speisen und Getränke selbst an der Bar bestellt haben. Dann ging es auch recht fix. Meine Begleitung hatte einen Cheeseburger und ich orderte Fisch & Chips. Nach Eigenwerbung der Beste in Newcastle. War aber leider nur durchschnittlich. Der Cheeseburger dagegen war okay. Fazit: Muss nicht sein.

A bit too noisy for our liking. Definitely a sports bar and not for everybody. Probably not recommend.

Great pub great atmosphere busy as match day ! Meals and sarnies are resly good .Love the Mac n Cheese !

Booked a table with a few friends and asked about disabled access, they said they would put out the ramp to the front and move are table next to the disabled toilet. On arrival the bar maid came out to help us in and the same on the way out. Great friendly service and great food

Great pub on the edge of the town centre, great for me with being near the university. Had the Camembert sandwich, as recommended by a lovely gent behind the bar.

Decent pub in city centre. 1st time in for years.... Reasonable selection of beer and lots of big screens for sport

Best pint of Johns in Newcastle, will definitely recommend and return for lots more yummy pints of Johns

Called in last Sunday night. Lovely feel about the place, unfussy, comfortable. Glad to see the Estrella standing its ground against the onslaught of Madri. Staff were lovely, remarkably so. Will aim to visit whenever I'm in town.

Thank you for the great pint of Johns, my favourite venue for sports and Johns, will be back for more

The most delicious pint of Johns I’ve had in a long time, thank you for the great pint and amazing service

Really good traditional bar nice friendly bar staff and food was good and reasonable prices just across from metro at Haymarket well worth a visit.

Great place to go before the Newcastle match. Lots of big screens to watch the sport and its also family friendly, which was a plus point for me.

Went in to watch the rugby world cup semi final: delighted to find somewhere showing it in this football town. Sat down at a free table, relieved. Just tried to get some food (at 7:40), to settle in and enjoy the evening and found out the kitchen was already closed (despite the fact that it says online that food is served until 9PM!). Disappointed to not be able to get food and had to rush around to try and find somewhere to grab a quick bite 20 mins before the match started! Quite annoying frankly. Other than that, it's a nice pub with good beer and good vibes but I was counting on the food being available at reasonable times!

I've been visiting the Crows Nest for quite a while now and would like to give a massive thank you to Declan and Niall, the best barmen in town. Cheers Foster's Keith

The Crow’s Nest it a lovely pub and lovely food and the Staff are lovely people and always happy and friendly.

Thoroughly enjoyed the drinks I had there. Unfortunately can not rate the food as I didn't have any but I imagine it's as great as the service. As was served multiple times by a lovely young lady called Neve, who was very friendly and pleasant to chat to. Hi crows nest, it won't let me leave a new review so having to edit this open. Per your recommendation try try the food, I did so. And will say I'm I am absolutely shocked, that it has taken me so long try try the food. I ordered the flat iron steak I think it's called and I genuinely can not recall the last time I've had steak cooked so perfectly. I asked the staff to passed on my regards to the chef who they informed me is called Emily. I hope you never lose her as looking forward to ordering more food again in the future.

Lovely pub with fantastic food. Shout out to the staff that are all welcoming and friendly. Beth is mint.

Called into the Crows Nest for lunch for the first time. Our server, Declan, was great and suggested a passionfriut lemonade when my usual soft drink wasn't available, which turned out to be a worthy substitute. Nice one, Declan! I ordered the chicken katsu burger...

Great pints with friends, made even better by the charming and friendly bar staff, Declan was great and really engaging and knowledgeable about the beers! Would come back just for a bit of crack with him.

Had a class time at the crows nest for the rugby Sunday Niall and declan were brilliant looked after me all night and created a great atmosphere when watching the big game !! Class ales on tap too !

Great Pub, good atmosphere, great staff especially Niall who was really funny and has great customer service. Would reccomed this place to everyone

Always a great experience, Declan especially offers a professional/friendly service, has good craic and makes everyone feel welcome
