The Flying Scotsman in North Tyneside

Brilliant atmosphere, sports showing everywhere which staff are willing to change at request if possible. Events on frequently such as live bands and karaoke which are brilliant fun. Bar staff are incredibly friendly and polite! Will be back regularly.

The staff are great and so friendly making you feel welcome also a goods drink selection

A great night out! Love music bingo on a Wednesday and karaoke on a friday! Amazing atmosphere with friendly and welcoming staff, especially Joe, Chris & Aaron. 5* definitely recommend.

Great friendly pub, with lots of drink deals. Has a pool table, karaoke Fridays and singers on during the weekend also shows live football. Great atmosphere.

Really good bar, good banter and good atmosphere.

"Proppa boozer" pool darts sport poker music karaoke bandits . Great choice

Canny pub beside the shops in Forest Hall. It does have the road out front and the Metro line at the back but neither disturb you when you're inside. Plenty of space inside, outside seating, with parking nearby.

It's a pub. They don't do food. The drinks are reasonably priced. There are pool tables and games nights.

Great pub for a Friday night out

Staff are polite and professional and very welcoming Good choice of drinks and plenty of places, there's a pool table and plenty of screens to watch sports also has a free car park for the designated driver. Would recommend a visit here.

Good selection of drinks, shows live football has music bingo and other events check it out

What a bloody awful pub. Floor swimming in spilt drinks ( I hope) not going back sorry

Nice local pub with a good atmosphere.

Brilliant atmosphere. Plenty of tvs round the pub to watch all the different sports that's on. Decent background music on that gets everyone singing along, too. Even got a snooker table

Friendly well managed local pub.

Great live music venue with a friendly atmosphere

An excellent local pub aiming at the younger crowd. ( It can be loud) Wide choice of beers including trendy real ales. Support a local business.

Nice bar, good band playing and a fantastic food truck outside

Absolutely brilliant 80s night. And lovely staff

Great vibe here but meals there even just lunch option would be fab.

Local pub well run. Good bar staff. No hand pulled ales.

Friendly boozer full of happy drunk riff raff.

Great night for the quiz hosted by Chris! Top service off a barman called Sam, said it was his first day but served like a top bartender! Will Defos come back

Service is slow, they seem easilly overwhelmed, but its a decent little pub

STREAM THE AVELONS ON SPOTIFY Scotsman is a great pub

Such a great mix of ages. Brilliant bar staff. Always a welcome smile in a place with a great atmosphere. Get y'sel' along for a drink! ❤️

I wouldn’t bother it’s young attitudes with Blyth children pretending they are Tony Soprano! Terrible atmosphere Don’t waste your money and go elsewhere

Great management loved being there on Monday with my twin brother. Staff are amazing and friendly

Nice clean pub went there for pint and bite to eat after playing the football team. Decent pint and price food was nice too

Lovely, clean, friendly local bar. Bar staff worked efficiently and had good knowledge of beers & drinks. Reasonably priced and a credit to Forest Hall

Its OK as a local boozer. No food and very cliquey.

Quiet this afternoon but getting busier. Orders on the app and you must wear a mask when moving around.

Great Footy, friendly atmosphere! Just a quick visit from North Yorkshire, I am a returning Geordie lass who loves coming home to her fellow Geordie Fans :))

Cracking pub great friendly staff

Football on & lime and soda only a pound

Big pub with tv screens everywhere. Also large OHP screen Good choice of beers.

Visited the "pub" one Thursday night and was sickened by the antics of a large group of males who continuosly frequented the pool table! I tried to leave a small coin on the table to mark that I was interested in playing the winner next, only to be told to "F off" by a regular! I also missed the oragami class, as the toilets and some seating areas were littered in, what seemed, small envelopes! 1 star Absolute shambles!

Pub is kept nice and clean with friendly staff. There is a great area for watching sports. I do feel that the beer was overpriced at £4 for San Miguel

Excellent staff and a great place to drink...loads of entertainment

Smashing place in the heart of the village

Always a good night out.new disco/karaoke was fab!!

Love it and it's my local. Just was on way to pick doge up and called in for a swift great atmosphere and a lovely cold bottle of dog. Nice!

Great pub friendly staff loads of things to do

Cracking pub in forest hall kids allowed until 9pm the landlord Lee is a great bloke plenty of staff to cover busy periods and the manager Sam is also a top bloke nothings a problem underage don't bother id is always asked for so don't waste your time and save yourself the embarrassment great atmosphere and generally entertainment on most nights

Brilliant Pub In Brilliant Location

Could not get near bar for stools this hindered access to the service area, need to remove stool'sfor easier access. The air was thick with of e.cig smoke as the night went on. Looked for seating with friends on upper level but it looked more like a kindergarten lots of what appeared to underage drinkers. Apart from this the atmosphere was very good and everyone appeared to have a good time

Nice local could do with a child friendly play area and nicer plants in the delapitated flower beds

Exelent pub lots of fit birds Go and enjoy your self

A nice friendly pub & the staff are very pleasent to customers. Would highley recomend to others.

Is lovely pub just shame they don't do food!

love it family friendly by day, party by night, small local little pub.

Doesn't have beer garden, but does have very busy smoking area

Lively place on a weekend we were there friday live singing kareoke style good atmosphere and guiness was tipt top

Brilliant pub good entertainment and good choices of beers and ales

Been going here recently really lively, karaoke every Friday and a live band every Saturday (fortnightly) and good prices on beer to 4 bottles of bud for £10

Good service and clean. Nice staff awsum

Great place to spend a couple of hours. Everyone is friendly. Customers and staff alike. There is always something going on. From football to live entertainment. Well worth a visit

Great drink great atmosphere and the best staff and management

Vastly improved since I was last there. Good atmosphere and good beer.

Great atmosphere, staff very pleasant.

Nice pint. Hope it gets busier. Clean and smart staff. Rare these days.

Well done refurbishment on this place making it a popular local. Good place for live bands. Well managed. Good beer selection.

Not outstanding value but since reopening (again) it's been ran well. Major football games are shown and the pool table is free on Mondays.

Came here to celebrate new year 2017, £10 per ticket, entertainment choice very poor considering the time of year when people should of been having fun, looking around the room and people were not enjoying themselves, music was barely recognisable in the first part, 2nd part wasn't much better, some kind of rock,very select audience was catered for at this venue, anyone under 40 I think would struggle to recognise many of the songs, spoiled my New Year's Eve to be honest, as we left early as couldn't stand the entertainment any longer,was expecting better as have been to the pub on various occasions and thoroughly enjoyed myself, just my opinion, I'm sure others loved it.
