I have been several times since I last reviewed a year ago. But I just thought I needed to do it again after this afternoons visit. I go to a variety of eateries every Saturday with my daughter and 3 grandchildren, but I've come to the conclusion that this is the best. It has the friendliest staff, delicious food and really good value in these times of rising costs(2 for £14 even on a Saturday). I will be back as soon as I can.

Been a while since I was at the Jingling Gate, but last night (Saturday night) we sat down to a booked table for five at 6.30pm. I think it's a Greene King pub, but this is probably the best one of that pub chain I've been to for food and atmosphere. We found the food was very good/excellent. If your meal comes with chips and want to go healthier, it's worth adding a side or two of vegetables, as they were were good quality and fresh not frozen. We had Hunters Chicken, Gammon steak, Sirloin steak, a rustic chicken and pulled ham pie, and Scampi for mains, just the one starter, a couple of puds, a coffee and chocolate toffee shortbread, three double gins three pints of coke and a blackcurrant and soda came to roughly £120. It's good value with some dishes available on a two for offer from £14.99, but you can push the boat out if you want. The table service (which is always an unexpected treat in a pub) was prompt, attentive and Katie our server was also really friendly, and enthusiastic about the pub and it's activities. She's a credit to the Jingling Gate and did a great job! We'd been to the Theatre in Sunderland in the afternoon but chose to eat closer to home. It was a good decision! We left about 8.30pm and the place was absolutely buzzing. There was a band due to start which seems to be pretty regular on Saturday nights and I would have liked to stay for that, but the dogs at home meant we couldn't. One final note, they also respect the blue light discount for NHS etc...

Food: Nothing was wrong as such....just really cheap food so I suspected the quality was going to be just ok. I'd rate it 2.5 if I could. Staff were nice when we were there on an early Friday evening. It was busy with lots of locals having some after work drinks and food. It's never on my list of places I'd want to visit to eat but my wife wanted to go as she said it's not too bad. I'd forgotten my previous visit so just agreed. Edit... I'm just rating the food here so probably being a bit harsh with my rating. You have to think that not every place is going to be 5 star as the quality of the food would have to be much higher. I'll change it to 3 stars given that the atmosphere and staff were good.

Live music went off at half 11pm and he left by 11:40 , with little music (they had music but phone was louder) to lead up to new years. 3 second count down.

We went on Thursday night for food and the quiz, great atmosphere and a good quiz and the best Gammon I've had for a while, they have a good collection of guest ales. We were shocked when we got the bill, the entire family meal cost the same as a recent meal at McDonald's, we expected it to be much more. We were served by Katie she was very pleasant and efficient. Highly recommended.

In the recent spell of hot weather we met with friends and sat outside. Nearly every table was filthy. We had to ask for ours to be cleaned. The staff just stand behind bar chatting and you have to wait for them to finish their conversation before they serve you. There seems very little management here. It could be a good pub but needs managing properly. I have to say kitchen and food serving staff do work hard though and are very pleasant. Sort the staff out behind the bar and get those tables cleared and cleaned, that's all it'll take.

I had a truly disappointing experience at the Jingling Gate. The poor quality of the food was evident from the very first bite. The food looked limp and thd flavors were completely bland. To make matters worse, several items on their menu were out of stock, leaving me with very limited choices. But the biggest letdown was the complete lack of staff availability. It felt like a ghost town in there. I had to wait for what seemed like an eternity just to place my order, and when I finally did, it took even longer for my food to arrive. The whole dining experience was a frustrating and unsatisfying ordeal. I wouldn't recommend the Jingling Gate to anyone looking for a decent meal and good service.

Absolutely awful. The staff looked very unprofessional, food was tasteless. The chicken my grandson ordered didn't seem to be cooked properly. The person on duty did replace it with equally poor quality chicken nuggets. My daughter had an open vegetarian sandwich and she thought it was one of the worst she ever had. My scampi and chips was not bad. The whole place seemed to be lacking in something from beginning to end. We have often visited the Jingling Gate but won't be returning in a hurry. The place could be a goldmine being beside so many new houses in a lovely area. Good management and staff training will probably be the answer.
