Excellent retirement party during the day in the conservatory, lovely reasonably priced food and followed by a great night in the bar with karaoke, Ray and the staff very friendly and welcoming, looked after us all day and ensured we all had a brilliant day.

Brilliant staff I was there for my retirement do, it was just like the staff were part of it so friendly nothing a bother , they do everything to accommodate children as well! Prices very reasonable for drinks and food. The rural setting with conservatory and beer garden enhances the spacious feel of the internal bars. Ray the manager is very hands on and goes the extra mile to make your day a memorable one ! Would definitely recommend the pub for functions and everyday dining. The karaoke is a scream , join in or just watch from the comfort of substantial sofas. Michael Saints

Waited 45 minutes for our food (had to ask where it was) even though bar was almost empty. Chips overcooked hard and cold like the scrag ends.. fish overcooked, could barely cut it, all batter with very little fish. Husbands chilli was so so but since menu has changed portion was all and no chips included....over £35 with our drinks, definitely not worth it.. girl came to see if food was OK as we were nearly finished, didn't say anything to her as it wasent her fault.... Shame because it's always been.lovely there but don't think we'll be back..

A bit disappointing. Sat for 45 mins after ordering until a pleasant young waitress asked if we had ordered. She's went off and 2 mins later the manager arrived with the food, no apology. Large fish & chips looked incredible but after tucking in i realised over 1/3 of the fish contained no fish, just batter. £15 for a small fish and a huge plate of chips. Chips were very tasty but I should have ordered a small fish as it was the same size and only 8 99£ Love the place, go often and for new year but I'll give the fish & chips a miss from now on

Mi familia y yo visitamos hoy, Domingo de Pascua - 4 adultos, 1 niño y 2 niños pequeños. ¡Los niños pequeños tenían el pollo korma de los niños y limpiaron sus platos! Pensé que había una gran elección de comida para los niños, especialmente para un domingo! El resto de nosotros comimos Domingo Asados - 2 carnes de res, 2 pavos y 1 medio pollo asado. Las porciones eran muy generosas y todos limpiaron sus platos! Pudines caseros de Yorkshire, patatas asadas, puré, sudadera, zanahorias y brócoli y mucha carne - tenía la carne de res que era hermosa. A mi marido le encantaron las bolas de relleno y también pedimos un lado de queso de coliflor que era encantador. Mi sobrino también amaba a sus cerdos en mantas. Todo rematado con salsa casera - jarras adicionales fueron sacados también. Pensamos que el precio era muy razonable, el personal era encantador y ambiente encantador. Sin duda volveré!

My family and I visited today, Easter Sunday - 4 adults, 1 child and 2 toddlers. The toddlers had the children's chicken korma and cleared their plates! I thought there was a great choice of food for children - especially for a Sunday! The rest of us had Sunday Roasts - 2 beef, 2 turkey and 1 half roast chicken. The portions were very generous and everyone cleared their plates! Homemade Yorkshire puddings, roast potatoes, mash, swede, carrots and broccoli and plenty of meat - I had the beef which was beautiful. My husband loved the stuffing balls and we also ordered a side of cauliflower cheese which was lovely. My nephew loved his pigs in blankets too. All topped off with homemade gravy - extra jugs were brought out as well. We thought the price was very reasonable, staff were lovely and lovely atmosphere. Will definitely be back!

This was always our local Go-to place for lovely homecooked food but we popped in for a bite today and were really disappointed. The menu has changed and our favourite mince 'n' dumplings, and chefs own steak pie were missing along with a few other favourites. The chips used to be the best around but even though the chips today were home made, they were dry, and not the same as usual. Don't mind paying a bit more for food if it's nice but unfortunately it wasn't. The waiting staff were lovely as usual but I'm afraid we won't be returning. Wishing all the best and good luck to the new management.

Second visit this week! Tuesday night went for the Cowboy burger with it being Burger night. A double cheeseburger with bacon and chips really nice food & pint for under £15. Tonight was steak night and we went for the 8oz Rump steak cooked beautifully to medium rare and again under £15, including alcoholic beverages. Kids menu is great son had the chicken dippers on Tuesday and demolished the tomato pasta and garlic bread tonight. And the kids puddings for £1.50 is amazing value for money. The menu has changed but the food is still great and a must visit.

Absolutely terrible meal there today! Genuinely don't think I've had a worse meal. Visited here several times previously and always been happy with the quality, taste and portion sizes, however hadn't been since September last year. Really disappointed at changed menu! I'd been craving the chicken curry but no longer on the menu, and my partner always has the cajun chicken and steak but also no longer on the menu. Disappointed but we thought we would be satisfied with an alternative. Sadly, the sirloin steak I had was literally inedible. So tough, fibrous and chewy to the point I didn't want to swallow it for fear of choking! Chips bland, two tiny onion rings ,a few button mushrooms however no peas served as stated on menu. Partner had the 'mega mixed grill' which was equally terrible, all meats were bland, tough and cold.Final cherry on the cake were the over cooked fried eggs which had the added bonus of a hair in! I hate complaining when eating out, so didn't bother bringing these issues to attention of server as it's not their fault and just couldn't be bothered with any hassle and embarrassment. Brought uneaten meats back in napkins for the dogs as they'll eat anything and hate waste! Won't be back. Such a shame as used to be a safe bet for a decent meal.

Despite reading and hearing bad things from other people about the changes to the menu food and prices and apparently rude staff but the staff could not have been more helpful and friendly I can honestly say that when my husband and I visited there on Valentines night we thought it would be really busy but it wasn’t, we were shown to our table and then after looking at the menu went to the bar to order our food and drinks the food was absolutely delicious I had a Prawn Cocktail and my husband had Mac and Cheese with Pulled Pork which was hot then I had the Steak Americano upgraded to Sirloin which was amazing and my husband had Sirloin Steak which he thoroughly enjoyed, when we went to order desserts we were told of the specials they had so I had the Lemon Tart and my husband had the Banoffee Tart we will definitely be going there again in the near future.

La hemos visitado con bastante regularidad durante muchos años. Siempre ha estado muy ocupado y con bastante frecuencia hemos tenido que esperar una mesa. Por esta razón llamamos por teléfono para hacer una reserva el lunes pasado, ya que íbamos a llevar a nuestra hija y nieto para su cumpleaños. ¡Qué risa! Cuando llegamos el restaurante estaba totalmente desierto excepto para nosotros mismos y permaneció así hasta que nos fuimos! Sentimos como si nos hubieran dejado en el Mary Celeste! ¡La comida lo explicó todo! El aumento considerable de los precios no habría sido un problema si el tamaño de las porciones y la calidad de los alimentos hubieran permanecido invariables. Tristemente no lo han hecho. No fue una velada agradable y francamente nos dio vergüenza que habíamos llevado a nuestra hija allí para su cena de cumpleaños.

We have eaten here for over 10 years and always enjoyed the food. However the menu has changed and not for the better. Very small choice of food, price has gone up by quite a bit and the portions have become smaller. I ordered mince and dumplings which came with chips and vegetables (just a few peas to be precise). You used to get multiple vegetables but not any more. It is the quietest I've ever see this pub on a friday evening and there seemed to be no atmosphere and the staff looked miserable. We won't be returning and judging by other reviews, we aren't the only people who feel this way. It's such a shame because this used to be such a lovely family run pub with fab food.

We had heard the pub had changed owners. We have visited for the past 6 years on a Boxing day as a large family group of 20 ish. Mainly due to super friendly staff, cosy ambience and good food. Today was 'just ok'. Chips weren't freshly cooked, making them hard. The rump steak was not as good as it has been in the past. What a shame current owners aren't reaching the standards of previous owners. I think this must also be the thinking of others, as the pub was relatively empty, where in past years it has been full of families and laughter. Think after today's visit we may have just ended a family tradition.

Sunday lunch today was abysmal. Tasty beef but tough! Spoonful of gravy and £1 for more. Roast potatoes were actually new potatoes and stuffing ball appeared shop bought. At nearly £14 it was very very disappointing and the room itself was freezing cold as we're the plates the meal was served upon. Certainly won't visit for food again especially on a Sunday.

Went couple of months ago and wasn't great but thought maybe a one off, went today, order 5 meals and drinks spent £120 3 meals came really cold , when mentioned to staff, he was quite argumentative in front of my child with autism or I'd have definitely responded Said he would speak to chef and offered us a drink baring in mind 3 of us were drinking water , we declined , he said well it is what it is ,nothing I can do and walked off. Won't be going back and would advise anyone to avoid it (also on leaving my youngest needed the loo which were dirty and had no hot water at all. Capped off so only cold water to wash hands

Solo tenía que visitar después de que me enteré del nuevo menú! No había necesidad de entrar en pánico, ¡sigue siendo la misma gran comida con papas fritas cortadas a mano reales! La elección del menú se redujo, pero no de una manera decepcionante, era claramente una calidad sobre la cantidad menú y todavía tiene algo para todos. Comí pastel de pollo y champiñones con patatas fritas, guisantes y salsa y fue una de las mejores comidas que he comido en un bar gastronómico. Todavía gran tamaño de porción y muy asequible, buena relación calidad-precio.

Reservamos el almuerzo del domingo para una celebración familiar en octubre. Toda la experiencia no fue lo que esperábamos, con una serie de colas y largas esperas que no hicieron que pasara un tiempo relajante. A la llegada a las 11. 55 am para una reserva de 12 del mediodía, nos dimos cuenta de la larga cola que se extiende desde la puerta hasta el aparcamiento. ¡Qué extraño que la gente estuviera haciendo cola bajo el viento y la lluvia en lugar de esperar en sus coches! ¡Ay, estas eran las astutas que sabían cómo funciona! Nos unimos a la cola cuando las puertas se abrieron a las 12 y se nos mostró a nuestra mesa a las 12. 05 pm. Después de echar un vistazo muy rápido al menú fuimos a pedir comida al bar a las 12. 10 pm. No llegamos al frente de la cola del bar hasta las 12. 25 pm. Después de ordenar y pagar, estaba de vuelta a nuestras mesas para esperar por la comida que finalmente se sirvió a la 1. 10 pm. 70 minutos después de nuestra reserva y exactamente una hora después de que tratamos de ordenar. Para cuando llegó nuestra comida, algunos de los clientes astutos/habituales antes mencionados habían terminado dos platos y abandonado las instalaciones. Así que realmente vale la pena pararse bajo el viento y la lluvia para acercarse a la parte delantera de la carga a la barra para ordenar. Cuando llegaron los alimentos recibieron críticas mixtas de nuestro partido - el consenso general es que era bastante promedio, pero esto era quizás lo que se podía esperar dados los precios relativamente baratos. Fue decepcionante que el pub no tiene salsa de rábano picante para acompañar las cenas de carne asada - nos pareció bastante extraño. Vale la pena decir que el pub estaba muy ocupado, así que claramente sirve bien a su mercado. Pero pasar una hora de almuerzo el domingo en varias colas y soportar largas esperas en la mesa, especialmente con niños pequeños hambrientos para entretenerse, no era lo que teníamos en mente. También - nos dijeron a la llegada que teníamos que desalojar la mesa antes de las 2 pm. Para cuando todos terminamos nuestros almuerzos no había tiempo suficiente para considerar un desierto.

Pretty grubby tired pub in need of some brightening up. Staff need a bit of training, I came back to the bar having just picked up a glass of red wine having noticed a huge lipstick stain on my glass. The barmaid without apology took my glass and poured the wine into a fresh glass and handed it back! I told her I didn't want the wine and asked for a fresh one as its been in a dirty glass. She couldn't quite grasp why she should do this until one of her colleagues told her to ditch it and pour a fresh one.

Food is delicious my favourite is dumplings. They are huge and soft. Prices are very reasonable. Waiting time is a bit too long sometimes

Este hotel está situado en la localidad de Callerton, a las afueras de Newcastle. Un aparcamiento de buen tamaño con algunas bahías para discapacitados. Fácil acceso para los usuarios de sillas de ruedas. Baños para discapacitados. En el menú hay opciones vegetarianas y veganas también sin gluten. El personal es muy bien informado y sería capaz de discutir y aconsejar. Hay dos opciones sin alcohol, Guiness cero y Peroni. Pedimos una comida del menú principal, yo tenía el picadillo y los dumlings con verdura y patatas nuevas, muy bien cocinados con los dumplings suaves y sabrosos. Mi mejor mitad tenía los scampi con patatas fritas guisantes y zanahorias. Había media libra de scampi. Dos comidas muy buenas disfrutadas. Estoy deseando volver a visitar este interesante lugar.

Generally I like the place but the prices have gone up and the quality has gone down. Last time I was there the mince and dumplings were served in a small bowl on the plate itself, clearly recently reheated in a microwave. By the time you decanted the dumplings, the portion of mince I was left with was minescule. The dumplings themselves don't appear to contain any suet it seems, the last few occassions I had it they were dry and unpleasant. Used to get cracking meals every time, now it seems like it's pot luck. Another thing, there's always smokers at the entrance, they should be stopped and moved elsewhere.

Disappointed with service, there wasn't any. I no the food was brought to the table but every time we wanted to order we had to go to the bar and pay individually after every course and for drinks. There was four of ys and we just felt that we couldn't get settled. Up for starters, up for main and up for dessert and of course fir drinks. We don't think we'll be back.

Worst meal I have ever had. Scampi, chips and garden peas. Very well presented BUT, peas were stone cold, although condiments were available on the table, a LOT of salt was on the chips so could not eat them, they were also limp and lukewarm. Now to the scampi. I have never, ever had scampi where I could not even get a fork in to spear it. Rock hard outside and tried only 1, which I scooped up. I could not crunch it easily so ended up bringing home for the dogs to play with. Did not have a sweet as next table had ice cream, which, although a large portion, was very soft and runny. They ended up leaving it too. 2 adults went, only charged for 1 meal which also included a pudding which we did not have. Appalling meal.

My go-to spot for lunch breaks, and for good reason. Their pastries are always a delight, but what truly stands is the blueberries porridge. Clean and welcoming

Absolutely tremendous post-punk friendly boozer full of Gosforth locals, nice dogs and shabby chic furniture. The owner of the pub has a super idiosyncratic sense of humour and everything just... works. Great beers from their own Overkill brewery (on site) and usually a decent selection of guest beers. Cask tends to have a better selection, but it's really well done here. There is a beer garden and it's nicely done, but is basically in the car park at the back of the premises. Big burgers and nice plates of food available and there's a good selection of quizzes and events on all year round. Definitely my favourite pub in Gosforth and the service is always friendly. Definitely worth a visit and offers great value and crack. The atmosphere is always great in here. Strongly reccomend.

No he estado aquí por bastante tiempo, pero me sorprendió esta tarde. Sentarse afuera al sol en mesas bastante rotas y desaliñadas junto a contenedores rebosantes no era una buena señal. Pedí un sándwich de pastrami y suizo que ya estaba hecho y en una bolsa. Bollo de pan muy grande y barato con muy poco relleno. El lugar estaba desierto y no me sorprende. Solía ser un pequeño centro ocupado con excelente comida.
