Food was good hot good portion size childrens menu was a good size Our server Christey was lovely really helpful friendly patient with us because we had a large order (12 people). Atmosphere was nice lively and fun. I woulf recommend this pub for a nice meal. There is one issue it is a dog friendly pub which was clearly signed the problem was the dogs were allowed in the childrens area where food was being eaten

Came to the county for my dinner the other day, had a few pints and the curry house feast and some spicey dirty fries, I have to say it was one of the best meals I've had in South shields. The staff here are always amazing and do their best to make sure every visit is amazing. I can't recommend the county enough.

Great beer garden with parking and seating area dog friendly. Go into main bar area to get menu. Once agreed submitted order were we didn’t have to wait long. Food arrived with no cutlery or compliments so back into bar to ask. He forgot but came out with them leaving food going cold. Food itself was Clicken tikka skewers that were overcooked dry with the rice that luke warm and tasteless. Pity

Booked a table for Sunday lunch on the website and when we got there I was told they don’t serve Sunday lunch, very strange! Anyway opted for a meal from the menu, fish and chips and scampi and chips, all I can say it was definitely not worth the 20 minute wait. The fish was tiny and had a strange texture and taste, about 12 chips and a spoonful of peas the scampi was the same. The little dog at the next table got most of it. Very disappointing as the meals used to be lovely.

This was a lunch time visit with a good show of customers. Staff both bar and floor were very attentive and welcoming making sure we had enough time to settle and read the menu. Great service as didn’t wait long before the starters arrived Hunters chicken nachos & chicken wings to share. Full of taste and flavour. The mains were just as good as the 8oz streak was cooked to perfection and the chicken skewers were top dollar. I would recommend this pub for good value food with no conplaints. Well done.

We booked Christmas dinner worth £49.99 per person. The quality of the food was underwhelming. For starter we ordered Prawn Salad, and it was just few bits of prawn(smallest type of prawn was served), Main Course was okey(Turkey and Beef Ribs) but the vegetables was overcooked and only few stalks of veggies was served. Furthermore, the dessert was a Christmas Pudding, and it was the tinniest portion and the amount of custard was about 1 tablespoon. It was diabolical. If you're going to book a Christmas Dinner at this Pub, please just avoid this pub. Totally waste of money.

Food is generic pub grub, it’s cheapish and of alright quality, don’t expect anything more and you’ll be generally pleased. BBQ sauce is a bit TOO sweet and is overpowering quickly. But overall, if you’re after a nice quick cheaper meal, it’s always a good shout. Beers are always decent though! Cocktail offer is great value for money also, the Long Island ice tea packs one hell of a punch
