An old style pub, gets crammed during special events at the Racecourse but quiet at other times. Could maybe do with a bit updating.

Only went in for a pint as I normally do on my way into the races very disappointed on this occasion the barmaid started to pull my pint which was extremely flat she tried again with the obvious same result got told sorry, now with 4 members off staff why was I not asked if I minded waiting while they changed the barrel I had to buy a brown ale instead and the 35 minutes I was in the pub the John smiths still wasn't sorted, why not ???

We have just visited the Border minstrel for a family birthday a table of 12 the staff coped well with all are our requests. Good food, good beer very friendly staff . Pleasant atmosphere in traditional pub surroundings. Booking is recommended on race days. They also have plenty of screens for watching sports Definitely worth a visit

Great pub in Gosforth park racecourse. On non race days it is very quiet with a great atmosphere. Feels like a country pub but in a large city

My wife, myself and a few family members went for Sunday lunch a couple of weeks back and we couldn't fault it. It was absolutely delicious. We had a lovely Scottish waiter who was lovely and couldn't have been more helpful. After having such a great experience prior, my wife and I decided to go back for weekday lunch. It was terrible! Upon entering we were ignored by a young bar person on their phone. My wife ordered the cheese savoury sandwich. It was a case of spot the cheese. it was full of coleslaw, which is not even mentioned on the menu and we never asked for it. I ordered the Texan burger, I left most of it, as it was like eating an old wellington boot. Very disappointing.

We visited today for Sunday lunch. I called when they opened at 11 to book a table because it’s always really busy and for good reason. We ordered 2 beef and 1 turkey dinner. We were looked after very efficiently by a friendly Scottish man who was attentive even though it was packed. The food arrived fast and hot. Meat and veggies cooked to perfection (not like the soggy overcooked greens that sadly you are too often offered with a roast dinner). We were brought a tray of condiments to select from as soon as we ordered, so no waiting for sauces while your food cools - such a good idea! The best part of the dinner? That gravy, it’s delicious! I asked for a little more halfway through because it was so good and we were brought a huge silver gravy boat! Will definitely be back, a hidden (but popular) gem in the middle of the racecourse. I would highly recommend booking a table if you’re visiting on a Sunday as every table was full at lunchtime.

It is what it is - a reasonably priced fill-your-boots sized Sunday lunch, with a gravy I’d happily swim in open-mouthed. The dessert - a sticky toffee pudding I forewent in favour of drinking the rest of my Guinness - seemed a little underwhelming with a store bought sauce and a scoop of Wall’s ice cream (or so it looked). However, although the staff were mostly attentive (and credit to the older Scottish guy who provided some much needed comic relief at the table), we did have to wait some time for the plates to be cleared away. This caused the manager (I assume) to come over and say they needed the table again in 15 minutes. We had only just had our dessert orders taken and were waiting on them to arrive when we were told this. My ask to management would be to allow 2 hours for a table of four, or be more prompt at clearing plates away to allow people to be finished in the 1 hour 30 minutes you expect. In addition we were surrounded by a kids football team and their parents so could barely hear ourselves talk at the table. Although the parents were buying drinks, having kids eating chips on the floor is not what you expect to see. The staff ( Scottish guy from before) twice had to ask the kids to move but the parents put them back where they were. Ultimately very reluctant to go back if this is a regular occurrence on a Sunday.

We went for sunday lunch. Upon entering we were met by what i can only describe as one of the most frosty faced people ever. So miserable. The food was well…….it looked better than it tasted. Soggy roast veg and cold yorkshires. The mash is Smash. The meat was tasty but there was hardly any. This bar looks the part but someone needs a word with their staff and a change of chef. Wont eat there again unfortunately.

Very very disappointed with our roast dinner. Yes we hadn’t booked but they said we could have a table for an hour. Ordered gammon and Childs roast beef good job a child didn’t have it as veg, roast potatoes were hard and unbeatable also husbands gammon tasted as if it had come out a tin he also had hard veg and roast potatoes. No one was interested when we mentioned this. Will not be going again. Very disappointed.

There were 14 of us in our party last Sunday and many of us had never been here for food or drinks. Considering the size of our party, our orders were taken and our meals were provided in a decent amount of time for all courses. The food was delicious and the portions were all a nice size. The customer service was spot on, no complaints about anything. We were all very happy with how the afternoon went and I certainly will be back again 🙂👏

Not a bad pub to be honest but if you go on race days it is plastic cups all the way which is a bit rubbish. Drinks are fine but could do with a little variety. Food looked fine but I wasn't eating myself. All round, not bad and the staff were friendly.

Visited on Sunday for lunch. The staff are very friendly and welcoming. They are helpful and nice to talk to you. We ordered two Sunday dinners. The beef Sunday was very tasty, beef cooked to perfection. The gravy was very good. Yorkshire puddings cooked well and tasty. All the roasted veg was heavenly. I got a Sunday dinner with all three meats and some extra trimmings. The turkey was juicy and not dry which was great. The Sunday lunch was very well priced. Overall we would definitely go back for Sunday dinner or to try there normal menu.

I was visiting Newcastle racetrack on a professional basis and with an hour to spare and food needed I popped into this establishment at around 1pm Sunday afternoon. Even though they seemed very busy and I hadn’t booked the staff went out of the way to get me a table. I ordered a Sunday roast and a Guiness and without much delay the meal and drink were served. The food although basic in appearance it was delicious and well cooked, one of the best roasts I have had for a while. Not overpriced either!! Atmosphere in the pub was pleasant and welcoming and I would recommend anyone in the area to avail of this gem.

Went here for Sunday Lunch for the first time. Lunch was 9.99. I am generally not a fan of Sunday pub lunches, or event days such as Mothers Day, as the food is usually poor, mass produced and what I call "plastic food". This was an exception and is the best Sunday Lunch out in a long time Will go again and would recommend. Have been again for Sunday Lunch. Just as good as last time. Really enjoyed visit. Plenty meat with your meal. Staff really friendly and helpful.

Sunday lunch. Didn't book but they managed to squeeze my wife and I in. Portions are big so we decided not to have a starter but ordered the extra trimmings of vegetables I had the turkey and my wife had the gammon. Both were absolutely delicious. Turkey was soft and tender roasted potatoes crispy yet fluffy in the middle, roasted parsnips and carrots to die for. Pleasant staff good service and nice beer to wash it down with. No complaints at all. Well worth a visit but probably worth booking as it was busy. Very well done to the border staff

This is the 3rd Sunday in 4 weeks that we have visited the minstrel always with a good experience. We sat for 15 minutes with no one attending our table and the bar area was quiet. My husband went to the bar and the gentleman in front of him ordered drinks and food, so my husband did the same and the bartender happily obliged! Within a couple of minutes I assume it was the manageress, appeared at our table and was quite rude to us! She said it was table service only and we should be patient! I think waiting 15 minutes was patient! The food there is excellent and the young waiting staff are always really pleasant. I do not go out for Sunday lunch to be spoken to like a small child! We will not be back, it ruined our Sunday lunch! Also there was no signage to say table service only ( that we could see)

Lots of staff but very slow to take food order, observed a group of 4 staff chatting and not attending to customers. We had to catch the eye of a member of staff to ask if we could order food. The food arrived quickly but the beef which was described as slow roasted topside was like shoe leather. We enjoyed the roast potatoes but little else - we will not be back.

Walking my puppy in nearby woods and decided to take a chance and ring up to see if they had any tables , we hit it lucky and they kept us one while we finished our walk. When we got there we were shown to our table straight away, all of the staff were super friendly and efficient and said hello to the puppy. We were served super fast, the portions were a great size and tasted lovely. Staff checked back to see if everything was ok and when we were finished they brought the bill quickly too. Reading the previous reviews i think this place has had a bit of a rough deal with people complaining they’re too dog friendly or not dog friendly enough but we really liked it and would go back again! Thanks 😀

A friend recommended this place because they do doggy dinners. There's plenty of pubs to go to for Sunday lunch but the fact that dogs are welcome and they get their own dinner in a doggy bowl definitely swung it for us. The staff were great, the food was nice, the surroundings nice too. Unfortunately, we won't be back. Someone complained that a dog had been fed by a man sitting on a table close to theirs. I don't know how this managed to offend someone so much but now dogs don't get their own little dinner anymore. Some people just have to spoil it for everyone else!

We were after a quick lunch so called in.. Ordered two bowls of soup which were delivered quickly and were tasty and fresh.. The staff were pleasant and friendly but…when we looked from where we were sitting I couldn’t believe my eyes.. I did wonder when the waitress delivered two main meals and there was only a gentleman sitting at the table.. I then noticed the dog sitting in the chair next to him.. He then preceded to cut up one of the meals and putting the plate on his knee fed the dog.. I know this is a dog friendly pub and I am not anti dogs as I have had them all of my life but really…We won’t be back that’s for sure ..

Can get busy on race days/nights and have to wait a bit longer for food, but if you book before hand they do tell you if it's a race day. Staff helpful in that they will break the bill down into separate bills if there is a large group.

Unfortunately it's too small. Invariably, you can't get a seat/ table, especially in term time. Great location in the summer break. Food Nero standard (it is a Nero after all). Staff great. They do the best they can.

This place was great, cozy but upbeat atmosphere! The staff, Rhi and Ross were great bartenders. Super friendly and very helpful! Would definitely recommend this place as a great stop for the pub atmosphere. Lots of TVs to watch sports on as well.
