Honestly I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of this breakfast. The maple cured bacon wasn't as good as the regular bacon, but it was ok. I don't typically come into this Wetherspoons in particular, but I may have to come back again.

Always good food and quick service but I wasn't impressed with the attitude of the staff member. Where has customer service gone? There is a big notice up at the bar saying It's nice to be nice so he should follow by example . I won't be back into The Keel Row anytime soon, I usually go to the Tilly Stone in Gateshead where they have brilliant customer service

A nice little place inside the gate. Close to local bus route and metro. You get lovely food and drink at great price but the service isn't brilliant, although we ordered from our table. The staff weren't friendly or talkative but wasn't rude either. Think they could clean tables better between customers and quicker especially as not many customers in but enough staff. I do go in regularly as good value for money. Once again this place really needs to keep up the cleaning of the table I quite often visit this place and have to ask for table to be cleared and table cleaned. I was in recently and had refillable hot chocolate Unfortunately the milk ran out I asked someone in purple shirt but he didn't seem happy to have to fill the milk up. He wasn't friendly or talkative at all. Thankfully a nice man dressed all in black, black shirt, think he could have been manager helped me and apologised because I was asked to use the other machine but it ran out of hot chocolate powder. He was very nice and apologetic. Thankfully. Here are few meals that I've had recently that were really nice. Once again can't fault meal or price but the app doesn't work good because not good Internet here. Also they arnt good and clearing tables here. I had to ask someone and yes he cleared the table but did not clean the table, it was dirty so I actually moved, I asked someone to clear this table and he did not wash it either, this time I used some wipes I had on me😯 No they weren't busy either Been back few times now no real change as you always have to clear tables to sit or ask for tables to be cleaned. Prices have gone up but when they do arrive they are mostly nice ==Update== been back into weatherspoon and the table was actually cleared and clean, the food was lovely so all is good on this visit On various visits to Keel Row they never seem to clear the dishes from the tables, they take away empty glasses but never dishes or wipe table you either have to ask or put the dishes and glasses on a vacant table and I have cleaned the table myself on numerous occasions They also let male staff enter women's toilets without shouting male attendant anyone in to give you warning a male member of staff is checking the toilets, thing this is really bad Would love wetherspoon to respond to this x

I joined a queue at the bar behind two guys getting served. When she had finished pouring the drinks the barmaid just walked away and left me waiting there. After a good few minutes I asked her if there was anyone serving at this till to which she muttered something and then said I'd have to join a queue further down the bar. I complained that she could have told me that and she referred to a sign which was further down the bar from where I had been standing. She then told me I wouldn't be getting served anyway if I "carried on like that". We left and won't be back in a hurry! Enjoyed a drink in another bar nearby and got service with a smile.

Necesitaba un lugar para comer antes de ir a un concierto esa noche y así que hola, ho, ho, ho, se fue a Keel Row que, er, fuimos. El lugar fue embestido, lleno a las vigas metafóricas. Encontré un asiento justo en la parte trasera del pub a la vista de la familia que encontró imposible pronunciar una oración, cualquier oración sin jurar en los términos más gráficos. Pero el personal hizo todo lo posible en circunstancias muy difíciles y la comida estaba perfectamente bien. Teníamos el pescado con patatas fritas y sin duda era lo suficientemente sabroso. La fila de la quilla estaba bien, pero no vamos a volver con prisa.

Absolutely dreadful. I waited patiently at the bar to beig ignored multiple times. Eventually I spoke up and advised I had been ahead of the person she'd offered to serve. The bar tender was extremely rude, said she serves who she first sees, not who's been there longest. I said it was poor customer service, even the gentleman aside agreed I was first. She stormed off to get her manager "Karen" who came back and belittled me, shouted at me Infront of the other patriots, demanding I leave. Myself and the other bystanders were shocked l. I can't believe you make those less abled. I hope somethings done about this. Absolutely disgusting behaviour, discrimination in my eyes

It's set out like a working mens club. Full of drunks on a Saturday at 4pm. Not a family pub at all. We ate from the tables in the middle aisle and the food was below par with drunken lads pushing each other, sloshing drunks over people.

Normalmente no escribo críticas, pero estoy tan sorprendido de lo malo que es este lugar. Llevé a mi madre a un viaje por la tarde al teatro y luego fui aquí por comida después. Los dos pedimos la parrilla mixta porque estaba en especial. La mayor parte de la carne no era identificable. Definitivamente teníamos cosas diferentes entre nosotros. Sé que el cordero se puede servir rosa, lo cual está bien, pero estaba crudo. El gammon estaba gordo. El lugar es oscuro y estrecho y simplemente no fue una experiencia agradable. El que está cerca de la estación de tren es mucho mejor

The restaurant is inside the "Gate Mall". You need to order at the bar or via their app. (Fully Self Service). No one tells you this or it's marked at the table until you ask to be served. Food was good don't expect high quality. More over its very affordable. Main course with 1 soft drink costs you approximately £12-£15. Very reasonable fot the location.

I have to say, and this is a big deal, our breakfasts were perfect! Nothing overcooked or dry or undercooked even presentation was nice and it was HOT. Other weatherspoons take note please! Do you know how many sub par brekkies I've had at a spoons and you guys are the only ones to get a genuine compliment and for me to leave a review? It's been quite a few so congratulations. Cheers guys P.s. price was also very reasonable compared to other spoons.

Not a bar I hit regularly because I try to avoid the city centre unless essential. On this visit (my first in over a year said my Google timeline) the Shipyard IPA wasn't pouring its usual supreme self. I still banged down three of them seeing as I was off work that day! It's pretty compact as Wetherspoon joints go, but if you're in the building or at this end of town, it's worth a stop-off and keeps a bit more cash in the old sky rocket.

Having a usual Monday night drink with half a dozen regulars over 60 years of age, when an embarrassed member of staff informed us to see our drinks off at 11.02 pm. I asked who instructed her to do this and she said the Manager, the Manager was not on duty that night but a female team leader who is avoided by most of the regulars was. I would like to inform Tim Martin that when you hire staff you should explain to them that they are not running the pub for their benefit, and are merely employees, he is doing his business no favours alienating his customers by officious jumped up squirts!
