Microbus Gateshead in Gateshead

Amazing Micropub cum informal music venue , catering to a wide selection of beer enthusiasts tastes , therefore Camra award winning for the last two years , at least...!!! A superb choice of both Cask and Keg beers , various ciders , as well as an ever increasing array of great chilled bottles and cans. Always a great atmosphere and craic with friendly knowledgeable staff and regulars from both near and far. Best bar in Gateshead in my opinion.

A great local pub with wide selection of craft beers on keg or cask. The beers are always changing so there's something new to try every time. Really friendly place and a great community spirit for a local pub.

A fantastic micrpub. Perfectly placed for southbound buses. Charming decor,friendly staff excellent beer. A firm favourite

Beer very good, good atmosphere, reasonable prices, enjoyed the experience.highly recommend a visit

What a great atmosphere! And for a small can offering, it had some goodies

Friendly service and friendly customers looking forward to the next visit 😄

One of my favourite bars in the Railway Quarter - has a great personality and puts on some brilliant musical arts. Beware though - the strong beers are deceptively delicious!

First visit to microbus, it certainly won't be our last. Friendly welcoming staff and of course a great choice of beers. Quirky decor and a really laid back atmosphere. The bus info board inside is a fantastic feature, especially as the stop is right outside. Can't wait to go back.

Anyone that has any desire to explore the world of real ales and craft beer needs to spend an afternoon in here and it's neighbouring hostelries. Choice of beer is always outstanding with a great vibe throughout the railway quarter.

Unique spot with a great selection of beers & cider. Really friendly staff & interesting decor everywhere you look.

Always start here, great beers and nice atmosphere

Went for the first time on Saturday and loved it. Brilliant selection of draft beers. The atmosphere was great too along with the pie 🥧 which was delicious 😋

Great idea for a pub with bay windowed vw cab fronts in multiple positions in the bar, perfect for VW fans! My Full circle - little brown bat was in decent condition, but my friend's Roosters ale went flat pretty quickly! The lady behind the bar could have been more friendly too! I can't see us returning to be honest!!

Sensational wee pub in Gateshead! Pints were too notch and the free arcade was brilliant! Will be back next time in Newcastle

Spotted this place a few weeks back and knew I needed to visit. Had theatre tickets booked in Newcastle so had a walk over to Gateshead, especially. Made to feel very welcome by Suzie as soon as we went in. We were first in that day as we were so keen! 😄 Offered tasters to help decide on drinks, and Suzie was obviously very knowledgeable on the stock. Lots of choice from a wide range of local brewerys. The drinks were fairly priced. Loved the quirky bus/van life style decor. Added bonus that we got to meet Harriet the pub dog and feed her a treat. Did a steady little turn over whilst we were there. Having never been there others that obviously drink there were friendly. Had a relaxed atmosphere. Sold crisp snacks that were really good. Although not Vegan ourselves, good to know that everything offered, both food and drink, is suitable for Vegans. Definitely going to go again! A fun place.

Great little find the other side of the Tyne. Quirky and cosy with great staff and a good selecting of beers on call and tap. Next time we're back in the north east...

What a great! All round microbus it truly is!! Excellent Quality pleasant staff , And what they serve all Lovely defo recommend! Great place to be!

Great quirky pub with a fantastic range of real ales and cider -gets full easily!

What a find,was recommended it and it didn't disappoint, SUPERB, great beer and lovely people,a must visit.👍🍻🍻😋😋

Place was buzzing when we arrived - sorry, no pun intended. Very busy, some great beers on cask, keg and also in the chiller. Will definitely come back, hopefully the train won't be over 2 hours delayed next time

Great little micro pub. Recommended if you are in the area.

Such a great pub! A lot of different types of pints and very lovely owners!!! It was a pleasure to talk with them! We will never forget this night!

What a gem of a place, VW Camper meets bus memorabilia themed drinking establishment. A warm 'Newcastle' welcome, a great range of quality local ales and keg beers and knowledgeable landlord. We felt very welcome, would highly recommend.

VW themed micropub with a nice selection of beers

Superb selection of beers all well kept , Interior design is good and unusual featuring VW camper vans. There is a live bus information feed inside too.

We loved this micropub. Lovely staff and great selection of beers.

First time visitor to this bar, really liked it, especially the electronic bus time table, very bus station should have a bar like this next to it .

Great little bar, will defo be going back

A really friendly place with an excellent range of real ale.

At The Microbus, craft beer enthusiasts find paradise in a glass. The intimate atmosphere merges seamlessly with the vibrant array of handpicked ales. Each sip tells a story of passion and craftsmanship, with flavors that dance on the palate. The knowledgeable staff adds to the experience, guiding patrons through a curated selection that guarantees a journey of delightful discoveries. The Microbus is where every pour is a celebration of artistry and taste, making it a must-visit for beer aficionados.

Really friendly place with an excellent selection of beers available, including a fruity sour green one!. First time in this week and felt right and home. Very interesting decor too with the VW theme. Definitely check this place out, it's quirky and fun and a must for beer lovers.

What a great little micropub. Great beer and keen prices. Make an effort to visit. Walk across the High level bridge from Newcastle to Gateshead and it's right in front of you. No food.

A bit of a quiet night as Pubdog on holiday. Great staff & beer as e:er. Just in for a quick pint on way home.

Outstanding MicroPub. Superb range of craft and ciders. Incredible value on cask. Superb ambience and decor

Great last stop drink. Love the dog 🐕

Always excellent beer choice! Great cellaring! Slight old drunk man smell and the bar is small enough not to need propping up! Who doesn’t love a quirk though! The owners have done such a great job bringing personality to this place, love it!

Visited yesterday with Brother and Boyfriend. Absolutely loved it, its small but perfectly formed (like me haha) loved the quirky decor, so much interesting things to look at. An impressive selection of drinks, such good prices, I had a pint of real Cider for £3.90! Amazing value. Staff were friendly, knowledgeable and had a great banter and laugh. Would highly recommend. Loved they had a real time display for buses haha. Loved the humor and vibe of the place. Mention must be made of the fantastic toilet all on the walls different posters, cartoons, information. Plus details on a mens mental health group. Also had some superb vegetable samosas. Would highly recommend and would feel happy going there alone. Would return, hopefully meet the resident dog (who has an ale named after her haha)

Great little place! Great theme, plenty of choice for beers, good atmosphere.

Great selection of beers that are very well priced and Gary & Suzy are both very lovely as well (and obviously everyone’s favourite pub dog, Harriet is there!) The outdoor seating is the best sun spot in Newcastle/Gateshead!

Excellent place to stop off and have a few beers and a chat

Good choice of ales and knowledgeable staff

Nice selection of beers on cask and kegs. There are also some interesting beers on cans for sale. Pricing wise is very reasonable. Highly recommended.

Great beers at good prices. Staff are always friendly.

Lovely place which we've tried twice before. However not a great experience on our latest visit. Asked the barman which of the ales are pale and clear. He smirked and said none of them, they're vegan. He then proceeded to talk to another customer about how this was an old fashioned way of drinking beer and that nobody wants clear beer anymore. Obviously this was aimed at me for daring to ask for a clear ale, I'm not going to apologise for it, this is my preference! Maybe someone should tell him it's rude to run down customers whilst they're standing in your bar.

Excellent pub. Lots of choice. Great family feel. Often have TwiceBrewed beers on tap. Always worth a visit. Sometimes they have vegetable samosas, and they are fabulous with a beer.

A great little micropub, attended the monthly quiz which was really good. Would highly recommend.

Lovely small pub with great beers. The owners and guests are very friendly and welcoming. Can definitely recommend this place to anyone.

Great little bar, visited last week and was buzzing ! Excellent service and beer selection, always have some great dark beers on. Was really busy but some lovely customers offered us high stool and even moved onto another table - amazing stuff and look fwd to returning x

My favourite micropub in Newcastle 🍻

It was raining heavily, I was sat outside and without asking the lovely lady brought me a massive umbrella which kept all of me dry. Excellent selection of beer. Always new stuff to try every time I visit!

Great, friendly real ale/craft beer pub. Welcoming hosts in this quirkily decorated bar . Interior all based on the iconic VW Microbus. Well worth a visit - especially on the occasional live music evenings. P.S. the veggie samosas are delicious!

Excellent micro pub at the South end of the High Level Bridge. Best ale selection in the area. Friendly staff. Can get VERY busy when there's music on.

Jetzt im Juni 2023 wieder hier aufgeschlagen, unverändert super.... Ist uns bei unserem Besuch des Beerfestivals 2023 empfohlen worden und wir sind dann dort auch aufgeschlagen. Mit der schönste Micropub, den wir in unserer schon Jahrzehnte währenden Kneipenzeit kennen gelernt haben. Ausgesprochen originell, alles rund um den VW Bulli, freundliche Wirtsleute, freundliches gemischtes Publikum, viele Einheimische, sehr gute Auswahl an Bieren und ein gemütlicher Pub Dog. Schlicht und ergreifend super...

Not tried any food... Range of real ales 🍺

Lovely quirky and friendly micropub with exceptionally kept ales and an impressive choice. Keep supporting Gary the legend!

Love this little gem. Dog friendly with lovely ales and very welcoming. Great value as well. Also, the Samosas are delicious.

Popped in with the wife for a swift pint. What can I say that hasn’t already been said? A superb staff member with a beautiful knowledge of cider, stout and more and super friendly. Had two samplers and a pint before we headed home and I have to say I love the place. Clean toilets too. Prices are very reasonable. What a place. What knowledge and friendly. Will be back.

Nice beer, friendly staff, good prices. Only downfall was it seems like they are trying to get every space with a seat....not much room to move around. Definitely visit if you're in the area.

I was a bit tipsy after the GOAT gig, but the staff seemed friendly and the beer was nice.

Love it here, friendly cosy atmosphere

Great micro brewery nice pint with lots to choose from

Great Micropub excellent selection of ales, Gary and Suzy are great hosts as are the staff, hope to be back soon 🍻

Great Beers, atmosphere and staff.

Cracking little micro pub with a very large and varied selection of ales on cask and keg. Plenty of decent cider too. Dog friendly.

I know people love this pub because of the beers but there is not enough comfortable seeing. The camper van fronts are a statement piece however it limits space. Today, which was Tuesday early evening there was no where to sit an relax.

Absolutely wonderful micropub, great selection of both cask and keykeg beers, and always a good welcome from the owner, Gary.

Quirky and Excellent bar... practical next door but a world away from the Hilton

Just go and enjoy a great selection of ales

Friendly micropub with a VW theme. Large choice of Real and Craft ale and good music selection. Has a screen with real time info for buses. You may also be lucky to meet the owners dog.

Superb micro pub. Unparalleled eclectic selection of exciting beers and ciders. Been to many beer festivals offering less. Amazing, friendly atmosphere Supporters of regular live music.

Quirky micropub. Decent choice of ales. Nothing negative to say.

Great micro bar with amazingly priced beers, and super friendly staff!

Proper micropub. Great selection of beer

Great micropub, fantastic selection of good beers. Regular live music, super cozy atmosphere. Lovely lovely people work here ❤ See you very soon! 🍻🍻😀

Great little bar ...loads of beers to choose from..dog friendly right up there....quirky vw camper van friendly tee ..good prices on beeer ...git in ...Christmas draw starts tomorrow for a good 🎸....have to go and try and win it ..carnt play a note 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

It’s seems like I was in icehouse a small bar in deep down Texas .The atmosphere is quite similar . The first time I went to this bar I noticed the Plates from Washington state the Volkswagen and of course the people very nice atmosphere and the owner what should I say ……friendly Fantastics . Maybe sometimes I will invite some of my friends in Texas a little town of Mission Texas Cheers salute !!!!!!More power

Great place for a great pint, tried the brown ale and one of the sour beers both fantastic, nice relaxed atmosphere and of course very handy to have the times flashing overhead for local public transport

Lovely atmosphere, great selection of beers. Dog friendly very friendly staff

Great pub. Awesome drinks selection and good chat.

The interior is quirky and leans in to its theme. However, the inside was a little cramped and felt very much like a 'locals' place. Wasn't a fan of the atmosphere it was a little stilted. The selection of beer and cider was vast, so should cater to beer novices and craft masters.

Quirky and delightful. Lovely people and good range of drinks.

Great atmosphere and very friendly. Will be back soon

A perfect little micropub with a great choice of cask & keg.

Really friendly, quirky bar in the newly emerging micro-pub quarter of Gateshead. Good range of ever changing beers you're unlikely to find anywhere else. Dog friendly too!

What a fun little gem of a place, lucky me to have found it. Gary and the microbus 5x stars. Bob from Colorado

Really cool new micro pub in Gateshead! Took a visit last Friday and really enjoyed it. Great selection of craft beer and also sometimes has live music! Win win!

Great little bar right next to the bus stop. Best bus stop I've been to.

Good location and easy to find, Great selection of drinks and a cosy friendly bar with live acts and bar dog, will be coming back more often and trying more

Class little bar in a great location alongside being very reasonably priced for the quality.if beer they stock.

This is yet another cracking bar in gateshead. Everytime i have been in. The staff are friendly to a falt almost. Nothing is a bother. They know there beer stuff. Which is great. The place looks great. Never seen anyone obsessed with micro Bus before like. Haha but it works well for this bar.

Very nice 👍 food and alcohol good ambiance.must visit.

Been waiting for somewhere like this to appear south of the river, excellent!

Another great little pub to drop by and have a pint from a great selection.

We came here after visiting The Station. THE STATION is a fab place with live music brilliant atmosphere. The mico bus has lots of different and unusual ales and ciders. Not sure what else they sold as we asked the barman what he recommended. I chose a delicious cider. Friendly staff and customers. We must definitely be visiting here again.

Great little micro pub,l. Good selection of alcohol, nice ambience and friendly staff. Outside seating for a few people. Already one of the best pubs in Gateshead.

Great wee micropub. Friendly owner. Lots of good cask and keg choices. Outside is a sun trap. Dog friendly.

If your ale drinker this is best place to go . Lots different ales . Dog friendly bar to

Lovely micropub. Great range and knowledgeable staff.
