The Duke of Wellington in Newcastle upon Tyne

Directly across from the hotel, the normal pub great pub and barmaid geez she works some hours

Seem a local for locals. It's like a step back in time, no frills but good honest service and company. We are not local, but we felt welcome.

A good old style city centre pub

One of the best bars in toon great staff good seating outside

The beer was vile and the staff were unhelpful. Won't be going back soon.

Cracking boozer directly opposite the hotel i was stopping in. Great service from the wonderful staff and a top pint of Guinness.

Great pub with wide range of beers.Efficient and friendly service.

Very good pint of bitter in a proper pub. A welcome relief from all the flashy modern soulless glitz that is so popular in the neighbourhood.

Friendly staff in a proper pub atmosphere.

Fantastic service barmaid very friendly 👏

Four of us came to this pub Sunday afternoon 18th Feb. Great selection of beers available. However I was on Newcastle Brown Ale and got the last bottle. Donna who was in charge of the bar went next door and made sure there were more available. Thanks for great and friendly service. We will call again.JB

Love this pub great atmosphere excellent service even on a packed match day.

Nice and cheap for town, old school pub

Awful experience, rowdy unsupervised children running around the car park and out door seating area. Manager showed no interest. I wouldn't go back

Quite easy to have a conversation

I can't thank the young man behind the bar enough for all his help after a date went really wrong. I spoke to him earlier on in the night he made sure drinks that were ordered for me was mostly juice as I requested in private to him and when things got out of control and I panicked and was inconsolable he done his best to diffuse the situation, spoke to my friend on the phone to tell her what's happened and made sure I was going to get home okay. He made me feel safe and I would recommend this bar to absolutely everybody and the woman on the phone when I called to praise him took the time to ask if I was okay and listen to every word I had to say it shows they not only care about customers but also that the staff are well appreciated here and that makes a big difference. Can't thank the staff enough.

Proper no frills pub in High Bridge, with good range of well kept beers

What a great pub, in the heart on Big market but stats true to being a pub and not a trendy par. Great for people watching and a good pint. Very friendly service and look forward to returning.

Friendly Bar staff excellent atmosphere

Just a nice, chilled and authentic pub. ❤️

Place was empty, about 6 people in the pub.

Attitude of staff, James is terrible, why would you want to come back, BTW we used to drink here at lot bit not anymore

Can I know who the manager is please?

Chocolate Stout be rude note too. ..

I used this place 50 years ago and it hasn’t changed a proper pub with great atmosphere

It's been a long time since I last visited The Duke of Wellington, and although it has reduced in size, it's still a great Newcastle traditional old pub

Great pub. Friendly staff and locals. Well recommended

Decent pint and the barman new how to pull a good pint of beer 😁

Amazing food, love coming here, staff are very friendly

Came in here on two evenings during a brief stay in Newcastle. Less crowded than some other nearby pubs. Staff efficient and helpful. Good beer. Tended to close surprisingly early, however I'd certainly recommend this pub.

Really good traditional pub great prices great atmosphere always friendly staff definitely worth a visit.

I'm a big fan of this place.....proper traditional pub, good beer, not daft prices.

Cozy little pub and friendly staff

This is a nice, traditional pub with lots of pictures of, or related to, the Iron Duke and Waterloo. I don't know about food, because we only went here for drinks in the evening. They had a selection of a few excellent cask ales, including Landlord and Wadworth 6X, both outstanding. Unfortunately, they were weak on the locals at the time when we went, at least.

Great range of beers at value prices

Ok bar. But lots of wasted space in the window area. Especially if you want to sit down

Proper pub in the middle of a busy city.

Well this is a nice pub. Really like it inside. It's clean and clientele are great. Staff and friendly and it very well priced. However the selection of both whisky and beer is very very poor. Which is a shame cos I love the bar.

Had a quick pint watching the match, lots of tvs so you can see the match from anywhere in the pub.

Nice atmosphere and friendly staff, more of a chilled out bar. Toilets aren't the best.

Great little boozer. Proper pub.

Getting back to the very good bar it used to be. New manager is making a very positive difference.

My partner and I love it in here as it's quiet. Most other pubs in the surrounding area are usually rammed - especially the Rose & Crown (which is cheap), but if you want a nice quiet drink in a pub that plays canny music, the Duke's the place to go. No kids allowed too, which is always good. Bar staff are so canny too.

Good pint. Well located. Friendly staff.

Good proper pub. Prices are reasonable Only place I have seen selling Golden Wonder crisps

Beer excellent and a surprisingly excellent fish and chips!

Canny traditional beer bar. Bar staff good.

Great traditional pub,good prices, very good bar staff she was very good at her job, very busy ,but didn't have to wait long to be served, always had a smile as well , well worth a visit,

Good wee local boozer. Nice friendly staff and live sports

A proppa pub, with sport on the TV. I'm not into sports/ footy personally, so that wasn't important. 80's/ 90's music on, so as an "oldie" suited me. Beer us cheaper than many bars in the Toon, so can't complain. Barmaid was canny too.

Great friendly pub, lively on a Saturday night.

Simple bar...plenty beers reasonable price.

Friendly staff, reasonable beers and prices

Myself and my partner could not get seated anywhere in central Newcastle on Saturday night so on a whim, we decided to pop in. Yes, it’s cramped and the decor has not been changed for 30 odd years, but don’t let that put you off. The customers and staff are all so friendly. The staff serving remembered our order so we didn’t even need to tell them. The music is an incredible selection of cheesy pop, and they’re showing the football. The drinks are cheap and don’t taste watered down like some of the other bars in the area. This is my pub of choice for Newcastle town centre, please check it out if you’re ever out and about in the city.

Traditional pub with a good choice of beers

Always nice in this bar always good service thank you.

Great pub ! Hasn't changed in years . Very traditional.

Friendly pub welcoming staff and drink not to expensive

Great little pub, staff are very friendly, will definitely be back!!

Decent pint of Landlord, but not much beer choice and not very friendly.

I visited this pub Sunday 1st May... What a very pleasant experience I have walked past this pub so many times but won't no more... The ladies serving were so friendly and helpful made my visit so enjoyable would definitely recommend 👍

Fabulous old pub. Traditional. Loved it. right opposite the comedy club The Stand

Quality pub with great atmosphere

A great place to meet friends in town and a very nice drink too

Service a bit poor but a nice cheap pint

Not the expected selection of ales, but a satisfying drink on a Friday early evening

Not as shown in photos. Definite need of a refurbish

Always a good pont in The Duke of Wellington. Great atmosphere with a mixed age groups in there all enjoying a Saturday afternoon drink.

Great boozer.....staff fast and efficient

Decent pub but few clientele... unfortunately

Great pub. Good range of well kept real ales.

Staff not very friendly, decor is very dated. Unlikely to return.

Good quality beer at a reasonable price! Nice friendly bar staff,felt welcome.

Staff are mint. The Guinness is fab craic excellent.

Had a drink in this pub recently. Went straight to the bar then looked for a seat, there were plenty but all were stained and filthy. Unfortunately we needed the loo and the toilets are disgusting, black mouldy walls, floor covered in what we hoped was water . From the outside it’s looks like a nice old traditional pub. What a let down. The owners need to clean the place up. One plus was the lady serving the bar was nice .

Good choice of lagers available, nice boozer in the centre of the city. Worth a visit.

Great atmosphere, small but very friendly

Great bar, beer and atmosphere.

Decent pub bit of a locals place with mainstream ales

A proper pub, no more, no less. Friendly & attentive bar staff. Will definitely be back

Absolutely wonderful and fantastic bar staff can't wait to go back bye girls

A very popular pub in the middle of High Bridge but having said that, if you don't get a table when walk in, you'll probably get one in 5 minutes as people move on. One of the old bars which is good the way it is, hopefully for many years to come.

We had a family occasion upstairs in one of the meeting rooms and the place was perfect for that, they also put on some food for us and it was all really good.

Good pint of Guinness. Staff were brilliant. Actually went to the cafe next door to get someone a peppermint tea

This is your everyday man's man boozer. Lady behind bar was lovely and made us feel very welcome. Toilets are clean enough and beers/spirits are reasonably priced. Could imagine this might get busy when something is on at the comedy club as its right opposite. It was a Monday afternoon we went in so it wasn't busy but we didn't mind that at all.

Solid 'local' style pub, decent selection of drinks with a friendly atmosphere and live sport

Class pub...great staff....good beer....

A decent no-nonsense pub serving good cask ale. A good place for an afternoon pint whilst out and about.

Amazing staff great little pub defo will return x

My twin brother Stephen and I were pub hopping around this part of town when we decided to drop into The Duke Of Wellington Pub and what a fantastic pub this is . Walking in and I knew I would enjoy my visit here, a traditional interior, an island style serving bar, pubby decor and furnishings including plenty of seating options spread throughout this pub, its a wonderful pub ,one I am so glad we found. We were here on a Monday evening, pub was just starting to get busy with a great atmosphere, a quick study of their real ale's and we both opted to have Timothy Taylors " landlord " , this pale ale was served in excellent condition, we settled down and soaked up the great vibe in this busy and popular pub. My pale ale was really good, a crisp, well balanced pale ale, hints of toffee and a delicious aroma and aftertaste with a slight bitter finish, on a really hot afternoon a totally refreshing brew, it was just so good being in such a lovely pub enjoying a quality brew and to be honest in an area of Newcastle that has so many good pubs. We really enjoyed our pale ale's in here before we moved on, for a first time visit to The Duke Of Wellington Pub we had a great time . The Duke Of Wellington Pub is easy to locate along High Bridge. Opening hours are; Monday to Thursday, Midday till 11pm. Friday & Saturday, Midday till Midnight. Sunday,Midday till 11pm. A wonderful pub,most definitely well worth checking out if you're in the area.

Great place and atmosphere cheap

Lovely barmaid, sad lack of ales, clearly mismanaged based on previous visits

The Duke of Wellington on High Bridge is a classic old pub that offer's a superb range of cask ales and cider and after having an excellent refurbishment is without doubt a must go destination for anyone who drinks cask ales. Located in an area of the city centre were there are many pubs and bars'this superb pub has a spacious interior with excellent seating options throughout the whole pub interior. A very comfortable pub to relax and have a few beers'we visited here while we were walking around this area and decided to go in and have a few beers. When we visited here we had a few glasses of Timothy Taylor's brewery Landlord ale a fantastic cask ale which where well served and priced.The Duke of Wellington is worth visiting as there beers are superb and well priced and the pub itself is in a great area of the city centre and is very easy to get to from Monument Grainger street bus stop it is only a few minutes walk. (This is my first of the Duke of Wellington). Opening Hours. Monday-Sunday-12.00-22.00. Nearest Bus Stop. Monument Grainger street bus stop.

Good traditional bar good range of beers and larger

Had lovely night in this traditional pub, we met Donna the manager and she was absolutely brilliant in making us feel welcome and comfortable, thanks for everything Donna, we won't forget you 👍🏻🍺😃

Cheap drink gud service friendly bar

Convivial atmosphere although only 1 cask ale on, although it was well kept and nice.

This was the second time we’d called in for a drink before going for a meal in recent weeks and both times were great. Very Covid secure, table as you enter with sanitiser, QR code and bar staff ready to advise you. The lady bar staff is very friendly and helpful. Limited real ales available at present but that’s understandable. Whole pub was exceptionally clean, including the ladies toilets.

Went on a Sunday afternoon hadn't booked but we were welcomed in. On entry we were informed of the Covid messures, given hand sanitiser and asked to scan the NHS QR code we were then shown to our table and placed our order. Staff are very friendly, polite and professional, Good selection of drinks reasonably priced and was nice they kept walking around asking if people wanted to place another order. Very clean all staff working hard making us feel very safe and really enjoyed our time, would definitely recommend a visit here.

Worth a visit friendly staff following all the rules to the letter in extremely hard times.great selection of beers even went for more red wine when they ran out
