Called in on a Friday lunchtime. The staff were pleasant and attentive and they have a good menu which is reasonably priced. We didn't have any alcohol but they also have a good selection of beers and if you're not eating they have a nice " snug" room at the end of the restaurant area.

roast beef excellent Every thing else rubbish. Veg cold raw not able to put frork into them. The Apple cake seemed to have forgotten the apples. Should have known that it would only go down hill after arriving to find a dirty table had to ask for it to be cleaned. The finishing touch was when asked to leave in 5min having just finished desert.

What has happened here used to serve the tastiest roasties I have ever had ot today samecas you get anywhere else tasteless. I like my yorkie crisp but plate came with cold yorkie filled with mash then 3 slices of pork and stuffing on top hence I only ate 2 slices of meat and 2 potatoes. There was plenty veg the best part was the cauliflower cheese which I personally don't like with a roast dinner but ate some of it as feeling hungry. We travel from far end of Newcastle because we have always had a great Sunday lunch but today I wished we had stayed local.

Booked a table for 4 for Sunday lunch got drinks at bar and sat down waited 20 mins for our order to be taken as we had to ask if someone would take our order we sat and sat for another 25 min while other tables were getting served their food even though we had ordered food well before them. So we got up and left unfortunately I wouldn't recommend this place even though we were recommended.

First time coming here, didn't know it existed. Bartender Doddzy (Michael) posted on his socials I saw it and came just for him. Food was gorgeous but Doddzy is so kind even with other customers. He's a great laugh and an inspiration to the place. Bringing new customers and getting on with all customers. He calmed down some kids jumping around, he calmed down some chavs arguing outside (nothing bad tho) and even helped an elderly out the door to her car!! I asked for a single vodka, told me to get a double and a round of shots in so I did. My round went from £4 to £16.50 because he's the best bad influence Ive ever met. Lovely lad. Will defo come back!!! I'm your new regular if he's working Xx

Just been for Sunday Lunch and to say we are disappointed is an understatement. Booked a table a week in advance and when we got there our table was a tiny little table in the corner of the snug. We felt as though we had just been put out the way which was disappointing. The table was dirty as was the salt and pepper shakers. When the food came it didnt fit on the table and I had to put bowls and other things on the fireplace behind me. The dinner was average and was absolutely not worth £14, meat, potatoes and mash was cold, veg was way overcooked and a tiny portion between us and the cauliflower cheese was like soup! With very little choice on the menu o thiught the food was going to be cooked well.. that isn the case. Not a single member of staff asked if we were OK or if the food was OK while we were there and we were in and out in half an hour as we just could not get comfortable at the table we were in. Wont be back that's for sure. Just seen the reply to my review and it is absolute lies. U did not ask us if that was OK u told us that is where our table was and sat us there! And the plates were still on the table when we left. As we're the plates and dishes next to us on a different table that had been ther 20 minutes with flies swarming round them! Obviously have to make up lies to cover ya backs knowing we can't reply to your comments. Idiots!

Came for Sunday Lunch with my Mam last Sunday.. booked a table a week in advance. When we arrived we were sat at a tiny little table in the corner of the sung right of out the way of the dining area.. the table was that small that when the food came out our plates didn't even fit on it. The server thiught this was funny when I mentioned it. I had to use the fireplace behind me for our glasses and extra dishes. The table was dirty, as was the salt and pepper shakers. Thick of dried grace and mint sauce. Dinner was average. Not worth 14quid. Cold mash, beef and Yorkshire and veg that was way over cooked and a very small person between 2. No 1 person asked us if we were OK or the food was OK the full time wel were there and we were in and out very quick due to not bieng able to relax at the table we were at. I wrote a review on Google and the reply I got was absolute lies. They obviously have to lie to make themselves look good. Will not be returning that's for sure. Filthy place and the staff are clearly liars!

Nipped in here one evening, had a burger & fries, friend had the prawn salad, at best mediocre, if you like a sloppy burger in a fall apart bun then great, this place could be so lovely by the harbour & Tyne. Feels unwelcoming & rough & quite a few regular drinkers who take the place over. Not one to try again

Went for Sunday lunch and the roast beef dinner was amazing, it was huge and well worth the price. Scampi and fries was also nice, very filling and a margarita pizza I was told was also really good. The service was ok staff are lovely but it felt very rushed as the waitress told us they were extremely busy so we were kind of hurried into order. Atmosphere was canny there was a good vibe to the place. I would definitely go back and try an evening there. Overall a lovely little place to go and I could imagine on a sunny day it would be lovely especially sitting outside.

I’m fussy with going out for Sunday dinners always been disappointed until now. First time going out in years and was very surprised with quality and taste. Ran out of lamb was gutted but had beef instead for £15. Portion size was very good. Place busy but still produced tasty food. Beef was slow cooked very tender my favourite. Would defo recommend and return.

Very small menu to start, almost feels like they’re trying to hard to be different from the rest and not a typical “pub” menu which is a shame. Ordered a simple Coke with no ice which came with ice, easy mistake which can be corrected but it set the president of what was to come. Ordered their salt and pepper chicken loaded chips which came with 3 options of chips for £8. All food came out 1 by 1 and when the burgers came out, the server couldn’t tell which was which and then proceeded to shout(!) across the restaurant to the counter where the food comes out to ask and even the chef couldn’t tell, this resulted with no true answer and had to be figured out between our group, good thing there were no allergies present or this would have been a disaster. When my food came out, it was apparent that I did not get the chip option that I chose at the bar (unsure why there’s 3 options if you do not get the one you pick), it arrived with a few sliced chilli peppers and sesame seeds. It was 100% not salt and pepper chicken, it was very dry balls of chicken with 0 seasoning which you can bulk buy from Iceland, soggy oven fries which were also unseasoned, and horrifically sickly sweet curry which didn’t taste quite right. Even for £8, it was not worth it and actually quite insulting to be served (wrong) oven food. Between the obnoxious waitress who couldn’t stop singing or the waiter collecting plates from the table despite some of our party still eating, I wouldn’t recommend. Such a let down from previous experiences.

Cheap but not very cheerful, stepping into a pub in a great location with plenty of outside seating alongside a good selection of beers, lager and cider on draught when I walked through to the bar I thought I was in for a treat. Food options were limited which put me under the assumption that they'd do the items on the menu well. I ordered one of their burgers, when the waiter bought it over to our table I asked which burger this was as the table has ordered multiple different variations and plates were being brought over 1 by 1, a shout over to the kitchen and a shrug of the shoulders by the cook later became a sign of things to come. I was unimpressed with a plain slightly dry burger masked by a lot of cheese and salad lacking umph. The fries were soft, comparible to undercooked oven fries. Which made even the modest price of £12 seem princely. Come for a pint but don't subject yourself to the kitchen - get a takeaway on the way home

Popped in here randomly on route home from work in Town with my son ... Ordered a double vodka n diet coke plus a pint of coke for my son who is driving... Price was £6 plus pence, I had to ask if he had heard that I asked for a double vodka... WOW this was the price... They do weekly deals on spirits THANKYOU 🤣... Whilst being served we seen some food that was being served to customers at the time, my son and me had to agree it looked delicious! I have since mentioned this to a friend that lives nearby... She has actually eaten here quite a few times and told me also that the Sunday dinners are lovely... Definitely will have a proper venture here for food. I sat outside,dog friendly, water bowls are around... Only fault(but not a bad one...) outside tables are too flimsy and gappy which makes you feel uncomfortable and more aware of where you place your glass, otherwise a nice little place to go to 👏

Came here with the other half for midweek dinner, we must have been the first to arrive as there was noone in when we got here. Friendly and prompt service from the staff, the food was excellent very fresh and tasty and well worth the price we paid for the portion size just over £30 including drinks. They offer hot and cold soft drinks aswell as alcohol, spirits & cocktails. Atmosphere was nice, however I can't say what it would be like when it's busy. There is indoor and outdoor seating. They also show live sports. We will definitely be back for food.

Abysmal. Staff were very friendly, however after waiting an hour and fifteen minutes for our food I decided to check up on its whereabouts to be told they did not have a ticket for our food. Which seemed odd as we had a table number given to us and cutlery and condiments brought out separately to the table. Not sure what happened but such a waste of our time.

Popped in today with my husband while out for a walk. We were informed they were fully booked but just being the 2 of us the lovely young lady doing front of house offered us a table in the snug as it was not reserved until 1:30pm. Being just after 12pm it gave us plenty of time to have a lovely beef sunday dinner each. The food was lovely & i was in cheese heaven with the cauliflower cheese. They do not scrimp on portions either. We will be back but will remember to pre-book. The staff were all so friendly making us very happy customers. Lunch was paid on card but my husband was so impressed with the service & lunch we recieved he gave a cash tip to the lovely staff. Thankyou for the wonderful hospitality ladies. Keep up the good work. 👍

Went here today for the first time as it was recommended to me but probably will be the last in terms of food! Went for a Sunday roast but they don't do chicken/turkey dinners which was BAFFLING to me (just beef, pork and lamb) so I went for the London pizza, which ended up being dry - turned out the pizza was a frozen pizza, so not fresh at all. Homemade chips and ‘seasoned’ fries were lovely though!! I got the bbq chicken wings for starters - they were really tasty but very fatty. Potato skins and halloumi fries were nice! My mam had the pork roast, she really enjoyed it but found 2 hairs so sadly wasn’t able to finish it. For how much we spent there, and how expensive most of the food was, I would’ve thought the service would have been way better. Most of the staff were lovely, can’t say the same for one of them which I believe was the manager. Not a single smile, made us feel rushed when trying to order, didn’t seem to want to be there and spoke to her staff members quite rude and with constant attitude, shouted at them a few times (deffo brought back bad memories of working in retail 😂) seems like she wouldn't give her staff a second to just breathe. I really hope we just got her on a bad day and it isn’t like this all the time, however, by the look of some reviews and speaking to friends/family I don’t think it was a bad day. The location is lovely, just off the river Tyne with some lovely boats! This place would be perfect in the summer for drinks. X

This pub overlooks the St. Peters Marina and has a good outdoor seating area for the finer weather. They have a good competitively priced menu and the food that we had was very good, especially the fish and chips. The only negatives I have is that the pot of tea that I had wasn’t very good but I suspect that it was that the water used wasn’t boiling as they use good quality Ringtons tea. The music that they have playing is a good choice but overly loud and makes conversation difficult. But putting this aside, I would recommend and return.

Went for Sunday dinner had it in mind to have 3 courses until we saw the size of the dinners. We both decided to go straight for the dinner I had the pork and oh had the beef both come on a bed of mash about 8 roast potatoes a massive Yorkshire pud and 3 bits of meat with stuffing. A portion of cauliflower cheese to share and 2 massive portions of veg. The pork was too die for as was the beef just too much food to finish. 1 of the best dinners we have had for years. Staff really good without being intrusive We will certainly be back

We had a stop here one afternoon after a brief walk along the Tyne. We didn’t order food but had drinks and sat outside. Nice views of the canal if sat outside. Inside looked reasonable too with various sitting places. The tables outside were super wobbly though. We spent about an hour here. Unfortunately my partner then left his Prada glasses on the seat and we didn’t realise until later when the pub had closed. We rung the pub the following day with very little expectations but we were pleasantly surprised! They had picked up the glasses! My partner was so grateful he offered a tip but this was politely declined. Altruism isn’t dead.

Having walked along the river Tyne from Gateshead, with a view to having food and drinks for the first time at Merchants Tavern we were well rewarded. Having worked up an appetite we were greeted by warm and welcoming staff and luckily found a table with ease. Five of us ordered pie, pizza, sausage and steak sandwich which arrived hot and smelling delicious. Clean plates all round and belts bursting, how can you possibly leave proper, well cooked chips. Wine and beer went down a treat. First time there but hopefully not the last, everyones plates of food in the pub also looked amazing. Lovely varied menu despite it being between Christmas and New Year. Must be fab sitting outside in the summer watching the small boats bobbing on the river. Cheers for a lovely afternoon....

Drinks prices are extortionate!! Service - poor - I think it was the manager or owner that served us. He could do with some customer facing training.

Our favourite place for coffee, a pause from the crowds, meeting up with friends, and checking out the new film releases. The staff are fabulous - this week we're totally devastated to learn that the wonderful Laura is moving on. Laura will be missed by so many Tyneside regulars, who rely on her calm, kind, attentive, thoughtful, good natured, welcoming warmth and friendliness. Thank you so much for all your years of hard work - both in the coffee rooms and in the café Laura. You have made our day so many times, simple acts of kindness all build up to make an enormous difference to everyone's lives. With love and best wishes from Julie and Dave (cappuccino and green tea) 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

I can’t fault this place. From the moment we walked in (with no table reservation) to the moment we left, we were treated well. The food was good and we cleaned our plates! My husband had fettuccine beef ragu from the signature pasta options. I had lasagne. Both were delicious. We also had a mixed salad which was fresh and tasty. Service was excellent and the atmosphere was lovely. Lots of families. Would recommend.

Cute place and sweet waitresses! The interior was nice. We sat upstairs which was a lot calmer than downstairs. We had the chai tea latte which was really tasty. For food we ordered the eggs Benedict, a salmon bagel and the pumpkin chorizo soup. The eggs Benedict were great. The bagel was nice, but simple in terms of flavour. The soup was interesting, it was tasty. The only thing I would change about it is adding in the bits chorizo after blending the soup. Overall a cute place, would recommend!
