Island Poke in Newcastle upon Tyne

One of the good pub/club in Newcastle upon Tyne. Located in the centre of the city. Easily accessible and a good atmosphere.

Friez and Burgz (South Shields - tried multiple times to upload pictures of the atrocity you served us so I will repost until I get a Refund!!) ARE you for real having the audacity to take £40 off a regular customer and serving us this??? The driest sausage patties, raw bacon, grease filled hash tots, burnt buns and absolutely stone cold where the cheese hasn't even melted! And then not to answer your phone! Your REGULAR customers put you where you are today - perfect example of greed over quality and customer care.

Had brunch at Smoke & Sear and it was very tasty. I had the Steak and Eggs, the steak was juicy and cooked just right, and the sauces added a fresh, flavourful kick. The eggs were perfectly done and brought everything together. My partner had the Wakey Wakey Eggs and Bakey, crispy bacon, golden hash browns, and the standout battered boiled eggs. Super crispy on the outside, soft on the inside. Great food, relaxed vibe. Definitely worth a visit.

The Tomahawk Steakhouse does what it says 'on the packet'. It serves a reasonable selection of steaks but, for the quality, I'd say it was slightly overpriced. That said, the service was excellent and the ambience is cheerful.

Great market - very full: very few empty stalls compared to other cities, and there's something for everyone. From tasting local craft beers, to trying on vintage clothing, to cheesemongers and grocers. A really enjoyable visit and a nice way to spent an hour or so. Downside that the toilets were out of order.
