I recently visited The Forth Bar, and I have to say, the experience was made even better thanks to Tom, the fantastic manager. From the moment we arrived, Tom ensured everything ran smoothly, greeting customers with a warm and welcoming attitude. His professionalism and attention to detail were evident throughout the evening, making sure both the staff and guests were well taken care of. Tom’s knowledge of the menu and drinks selection was impressive, and he went above and beyond to accommodate our group’s preferences. He checked in regularly to ensure we were happy with our food and drinks while maintaining a friendly and relaxed atmosphere. It’s clear that he genuinely cares about providing top-quality service, and his leadership reflects in the efficiency and friendliness of the entire team. The Forth Bar itself has a great vibe, but it’s people like Tom who make it stand out. His excellent customer service, ability to handle a busy venue with ease, and his approachable nature truly elevate the experience. If you’re looking for a place with a great atmosphere and top-notch service, I highly recommend The Forth Bar – and make sure to say hello to Tom!

Paulicarus had to walk ten yards to his next pub, a beer Marque pub. Only a couple of real ales on out of four handpumos but St Austell Proper Job Pale Ale is a favourite. Rosie's Pig cider as well. Lots of standing space for busy times and surprisingly large pub with hidden rooms and an upstairs beer terrace. Toilets upstairs. Wife tells me lots of (7) ladies cubicles. Food served.

This is the place to go if you like friendly & helpful staff, a pub environment, creative and great tasting food along with lots of options for beer, wine & cocktails. We're going again, and we've been vacationing in the UK for the weeks and this place is a keeper.

£17.50 for the standard burger and fries is insane. Although never got to try it as was told there was an hour and a half wait for food, even through it didn't look like the big group that had walked in had even ordered yet. Seemed overpriced for Newcastle, service blunt.

I booked our works Christmas party at The Forth, and to say they were accommodating is an understatement. They went above and beyond to meet our needs, even providing drinks tokens which is something they generally don't do. The food was amazing - everyone commented on how nice it was. And whilst to put itself was busy (we had a sectioned off part of the pub), the wait for drinks was pretty quick. Staff were lovely and very helpful - location wise it was stop on too. Nothing negative at all to report - just a huge thank you to the staff for their help and patience in the booking process. We will be back :)

Superb Christmas buffet, cosy pub with friendly staff! I recently hired the space (Tommy Burns room) for a festive family gathering. From the very first email the staff were super friendly and helpful (Tom and Laura) answering all my questions. There were plenty of options on the Christmas buffet menu for meat-eaters and vegans and all absolutely delicious. All who attended were blown away by the food. I will definitely be returning…. the vegan cheesecake was to die for! The pub has a lovely cosy atmosphere and great music. We were able to request songs through the ‘Secret DJ’ app which was brilliant. Thanks to all at The Forth!!

Very busy and loud not ideal eating right next to the bar we couldn’t hear eachother.

Amazing atmosphere, staff were easily able to adapt to the various levels of incoming guests while still maintaining a personable and basically perfect level of customer service to their current clients. I was initially served (at the bar) by two wonderful ladies and then my table was taken over by a wonderful guy who has only been there barely a week; he made me some great cocktails and got my slightly awkward food order perfect! And then! The food itself was actually PHENOMENAL!! (Hats off to the cef and kitchen staff cos it was pretty busy for a Tuesday night IMO) I got the spiced fried onions and the nourish bowl with fillet steak tails - so frickin tasty! Totally exceeded my expectations. I had had a really heavy lunch and needed something healthy and nourishing aswell as meaty/ tasty/filling and this was just perfect! For drinks i recommend the Mai Thai that's0 on offer 2 for £13 (theres approx 6 drinks on this offer) I also had a crafter so if your into craft beers/ciders it's definitely à spot to check out Now I just have to try and not go back every other day I'm here so I can experience the other wonderful, tasty treats Newcastle City has to offer! Minutes from the station and my hotel so just perfect to roll home to after a long day of work if you're here for work and staying central 5 stars would 200% recommend Nourish bowl = £11 Fiĺlet Steak = +£8 Crispy spicy onions = £4 Cocktail offers = 2 for £13 Craft Cider = approx £5/6

I arrived on Saturday for some birthday drinks and was feeling a bit peckish so I ordered the Nachos for two at a steep price of £10.50. the portion was actually decent and could be shared by two people, so if you're splitting the nachos with someone, the price seems alright. However, after taking one bite, I wouldn't have even shared them with a homeless dog as I'd probably get locked up for animal abuse. They were the worst, tasted stale, and the cheese was burnt to a crisp. I had to have a shot of Ray Nephews just to cleanse my taste buds.

2pm and no roasts left despite 2 tables of 6 people pre-booked - only nut roasts! The place wasn't even busy. Conveniently, we weren't told on our arrival or before buying our drinks which is dishonest! The Forth used to have a great reputation for Sunday roasts but, sadly, bo more. Not even an offer of a discount/coffees by way of making amends.
