The Pub and Kitchen in North Tyneside

Staying nearby stopped off for a swift drink, good service & clearly popular as quite busy, loved the bare stone walls, the flowery paper looked liked something from the 60’s lol

Used be nice pub Well what can I say was nice pub last year and a half. Till last week when Nicholas grabbed me tried it on Michael the owner shut outside garden door so no-one could see. Hence few days later I get barred . Nice pub not to clicky clicky for me .

A welcoming pub with friendly staff in a central North Shields location which is definitely worth a visit.

We’ve been going here for a while now and have got to know the team behind the bar pretty well. The place has a fantastic atmosphere, welcoming staff, good music and (perhaps most importantly) a great pint. Would definitely recommend open mic night too.

Busy pub, ideal to go to for drinks before a meal in a local restaurant. Staff were friendly and prices were fine.

We decided to try this pub as we had herd good things about it. It is a traditional looking country pub, very small and dated. The food on offer was excellent quality and cooked to order. The staff seem more than nice and nothing was too much trouble. Reasonable priced. The menu ranged was really good too, what I would call traditional English, one of our party had liver and bacon, I had fish and chips, and the other member had a wonderful pie, all served pipping hot. The down side is it is very small, and very very dated not shabby chic dated just grubby looking dated.

Excellent venue for quite drink & somewhere to unwind, Staff very friendly & polite Good facilities all round Would recommend to anyone 😀

New management in , there are 2 real ale pumps, always one available, usually Cullercoats Shuggie Boat. Food will be available soon. Choice of 4 newspapers every day. Good selection of spirits and cocktails

I found this a nice little comfortable place. Got a perfectly poured pint and a nice snack served quickly by friendly staff.

Vinimos para comida y nos dijeron que la cocina había sido desgarrado y estaba siendo reparado. Antes de la visita que parecía para ver si no comida y en qué momento, y no podía encontrar nada relativo a la comida no sirve debido a la cocina a montarlos. Mejor comunicación entre ellos mismos y clientes potenciales sería beneficioso en el futuro. El pub en sí para bebidas era perfecto, y no tengo nada que decir a este respecto, estoy más desalentado que no probamos la comida debido a problemas de comunicación antes de la visita. 2 / 5.

Fab time brilliant female artist and friendly crowed. This place is taking off big time guys. Be there or be square xx

New management, really friendly, good service and a good natter, will come again! Will recommend! Great for a quiet pint or a celebration, haven't tried the food yet but I hear great things

The Food the is very good value for money and a good variety is on offer. Compared to a few other pubs close by, the atmosphere is relaxing and the locals are very friendly, this combined with nice staff makes it a nice pleasant experience

¡Genial! Fuimos para un almuerzo con ponerse un amigo.

Fantastic quality burgers with home made fries and home made relish. The beer is good as well so get yourself there and sat on their comfy quirky chairs and enjoy!

The place on the whole isn't bad at all. It has obviously diversified from a normal local pub on a corner to trying to break into being a gastro pub.The food is imaginative if not a little different to what you expect. By that I mean that it doesn't serve what I would class as authentic spanish food, more of an interpretation of it!All considered it is definitely worth a visit and hopefully it will be when it's a little quieter. I've been several times and seen it quiet and peaceful as well as loud and busy. Many people use this as a stop by on their way into town.

This pub has great decor, good selection of beers, is nicely lit, clean and the staff are friendly. But the atmosphere is ruined because of the awful radio 1 style music that they play (sometimes quite loudly so you can't have a conversation). It just doesn't seem appropriate for a cosy pub to have pop music like this blasting out. I've even seen them put commercial radio station on so you get adverts blasting out in between the awful music. It's a real shame as it could be a great pub but myself and a number of other people I know are put off because of the music situation.

Nice quiet pub for a few quite drinks nice food staff always pleasant and helpfully nice atmosphere been here a few times

Good pub serving real ales , food portions good food also good worth a visit, also has a friendly atmosphere when you go in.

This pub has a split personality. It's trying to be a Tynemouth pub in North Shields; the muted paint job, shabby chic stylings and mismatched chairs and wallpaper all point towards NE30. But it doesn't work. The food is inconsistent - roasts great one week, shoe leather the next. They have a good range of beers...but they're usually off or poorly kept. I could do without the music, but people must like it. The staff aren't unfriendly as such, but they could be friendlier. Stop looking at the clock when people order food. Smile a bit more. I get the feeling the whole place could do with an hour or so with someone who knows how to do this sort of thing properly - North Shields isn't short of friendly boozers and good places to eat.

Good pub with really friendly staff , the prices are reasonable ant the decor is rather rustic but good , although we haven't dined there the food looks good at a reasonable price

only been once, loved it this place is really nice , good beers nice atmosphere and good food. need i say more?

This pub offers excellent value for money freshly cooked food. Not an extensive menu, but what they do is good quality. This is a popular pub, especially on Sundays.

Recently had a meal ,food very nice good variety on the menu, nice surroundings, worth the visit. A change from the typical pub food menus.

Have visited this pub on several occasions it has a good atmosphere staff are welcoming, standard of food is good and consistent and food and drinks reasonably priced.

Popped in for a drink on Saturday for the first time, pleasantly surprised. A few people in the bar and when the food came out, it made us both very hungry! Almost certain to go back and we will probably try the food as well!

Every home should have a local like this within walking distance. If you are looking for 'haute cuisine' then forget it. If you want Michelin star performance then go somewhere else BUT if you want a pleasant Sunday lunch when doing it yourself is simply too much to bother then this is where you come. Nice food with pleasant service and staff means you get great value and that wonderful feeling of being well fed and watered which will last you through the walk home.

Met some former workmates here for a get together. It's not a large dining area but quite comfortable.The food is really tasty and home cooked, not the usual mass produced pub fare, Very good value, lovely food and good service.

Lovely local fish, enjoyed so much due to the quality of food and staff also atmosphere.Friendly locals make you feel so welcome

My wife and I visited The Pub and Kitchen yesterday and we were left very impressed, the bar/dining area is beautifully decorated and very comfortable. We were a little worried as its not the biggest area but it was more than adequate and we never felt like we were uncomfortable. The food was superb, we both had the house burgers and they were exactly what you would want, meaty and juicy, excellently presented and accompanied by some lovely fries. We're definitely going back to sample more of the menu!

Great boozer friendly staff nice drink in front of log burning fire cheers will defos return ps try coffees they are amazing

Visited here today with 2 girlfriends. They had fish and chips (on special today at 2 for £12). I had scampi and chips. We all enjoyed the food - lovely fish, homemade chips and mushy peas. Scampi was great with homemade chips, peas and tartar sauce. 3 soft drinks with it - cost of about £25 so well worth it. Will definitely be back to try some of the other options - tapas, burger and steaks. We'll worth a visit if in the area.

The food is fresh, reasonably priced and lovely. The menu changes frequently enough to keep you interested and wanting to go back. Nice pub, friendly enough staff, good beer and a worth while stopping point.

I have just returned from The Pub & Kitchen and was very impressed by the standard of food and value for money. The Sunday lunch was gorgeous, very tasty and good portion size; the chocolate fudge cake with ice cream was delicious and I could not believe how much the bill was with a bottle of Sauvignon Blanc. It has a really nice atmosphere and the staff are very friendly. I would definitely go again.

I never fail to be impressed by the standard of the food served here. The menu offers plenty of choice with something for everyone. Portion sizes are good and provide fantastic value for money. The staff are always friendly and helpful and service is efficient. Well worth a visit, good quality food and drinks without breaking the bank.

What a find. You would never know what fab food lay beyond the doors. You may wait a while for your food but its cooked from scratch and boy is it worth it. Love the shabby chic look too. I had the chicken burger (it was a whole chicken fillet topped with bacon n cheese) beautifully presented with a side salad (my choice) and a mini chip pan basket of fries.We were all equally pleased and as its near my daughters new house we will be making this our regular. Pity we didn't have room for dessert Sunday lunch sounds excellent too. Good luck to them. We will definitely go backNice and friendly staff too

Delicious new menu. I voted them the best pub in our local paper, well deserved too. The only decent place in North Shields to eat with only the bell and bucket as competition. I like the atmosphere, friendliness of the staff, ambience, location, and clientele of this pub too.

For an old drinking whole in Shields it has changed into a chic eating place good Sunday lunches the normal choice of meats, beef, lamb and chicken.If you want a sandwich then theirt stake sandwich Plus chips and coleslaw is a feast in its self.

Cute little pub which I would highly recommend. We've been a few times and love the place. Broad range of food on the menu with cheery friendly bar staff. Portions are big and value for money.

went here on a whim as have been meaning to go, we booked a table before going when we arrived we sat down in bar area and had a quiet drink,real ale was very nice, then after a short time we went and told them we had reserved a table , were told to pick a table no reserved sign to be seen ? chose our meals and went to bar to order them. The food arrived in good time and was of a fair standard, it was just a shame that pub regulars were swearing not often but I could hear them, but was well worth a visit and will go back at some point as the staff were very nice and that's a bonus.

This pub is at a prominent crossroads in North Shields and is owned by people who know how create a great atmosphere. The food is good and the ale is great.

The Pub and Kitchen serves some of the best meals in this area.The Tapas are very good and they have a great deal on Tapas and Wine.The Sunday dinners are very tasty and are good value.The staff very friendly and hard working its a great place to go to.

Food was presented to a very high standard and tasted amazing exellent value for money as I had an 8oz burger with all the trimmings,well done to the chef.Negatives are the bar staff i feel could look like they are enjoying their job and actually give a smile and ask when clearing the plates if everything was ok,same as when delivering meals to state enjoy .The only really off putting thing in the bar was an elderly man who repeatdly belched not once but every minute to the point we had to move 4 times ,I do have a food establishment myself and if this man was in my place I would ask him to either watch his manners are ask him to leave,and you will loose customers due to his rudeness

12f us were booked yesterday for Mother's Day got there and the table was all set beautifully. We ordered our food in 3 separate groups the food started to arrive and was practically thrown at us, I myself had ordered gammon he brought a plate over saying small gammon I replied that I had ordered gammon but not small he threw it onto the table in front of me and said he would bring me some more veg which never arrived, by this time six of us had been served we were actually finished our lunch and the other six had still not been served one of our group went to ask what the delay was the woman came over and was quite rude saying it was our fault we should of all ordered together even though one group of four who did order together got one meal with the first lot and the other three had to wait. No apology or anything just a snotty attitude food was lovely but the day was spoilt by then.

Went for birthday double celebration booked table in advancevand all OK. Food was very good and Ashley and Nicola were great.

The food is homemade and is good quality. Unfortunately the bar staff have no idea how to serve ale or are not interested. The sparklers are loose , probably to save them pouring time , but this ruins the pint. On more than one occasion we have had to take our glasses back because of they were dirty with grease, we did ask politely but felt the bar staff were confrontational and refused to replace the drink. They did eventually pour it into other glasses but complained all the time that it was due to the colour of the ale!! At nearly £3:50 a pint you should be entitled to a clean glass and good service. We won't be back. Complements to the chef though.

The Pub & Kitchen is lovely inside, good service, good food, good value but the atmosphere is totally ruined by the awful music they play loudly!When the pub first opened I couldn't believe we finally had a decent pub in shields to relax with friends over a few pints. My first visit was great and I looked forward to returning but every time I've been back I've ended up walking out because they now okay very loud music which is just innapropriate for the age group of people who would visit a pub like that. It's often Radio One type stuff which is targeted to 13-20 year olds. They even have Magic FM on the TV screen sometimes with similar awful pop music playing. It's such a shame because it's very off putting and I know a lot of people who now don't go back because of it. It really spoils the atmosphere of what otherwise would be the best pub in shields.

I've been here a few times and it's always been alright. It's quite a small place but the service is always good. There is a decent range of beers that are moderately priced. The food is done well (mince & dumplings were tasty) and it's nicely furnished and decorated. It's good for a few pints and a bite to eat but may be not to spend all night there

My friends & I have visited every 6 weeks or so for food, wine & a good natter. At first, when the P & K first opened, we were very pleased with the standard of the food & the friendly atmosphere in the pub. Gradually the standard of food has deteriorated : last time we had tapas which was ok in terms of selection but generally cold when it arrived. This time we had 2 fish dishes & one steak. The order was taken down incorrectly (the bar staff were too busy chatting to each other) which lead to a delay in our food arriving. The steak was barely cooked & had to be sent back as it was inedible. Previously the steak was served on a platter with chips in a basket/bucker. Now it comes in a soggy heap on a plate.They had run out of house wine so we had to spend more on the alternative. Apologies were given but the staff seemed disinterested. We will not be going back.

I've eaten here a few times and had tapas which has been lovely. Today I arrived just after 12 with my partner and we ordered sunday roasts. the roasts arrived and were nicely presented with plenty of veg and mashed potato. however there was only one small jug of gravy between two of us...I asked for extra but was told there would be a bit of a wait. the gravy never arrived and I left most of my lunch as I can't eat a dry dinner. this was a shame as it changed the whole sunday lunch experience from what could have been very good to disappointing!

We went here for lunch during the week and found the place to be very disappointing.First we ordered drinks which were fine but sat at a table close to the bar and my fiancé could feel the floor shaking constantly below her. Made her feel a bit ill. So we moved to a table in the 4 table dining area only to find that the table was so unstable and dangerous it was unfit for use. Even the slightest lean on the top would make it tilt almost off the hinge.Then to top it off, they were out of burgers so we left

Myself, my mother and my grandmother visited the pub on a whim and had never really heard of it. We ordered to P&K beef burgers and a steak. With out a shadow of a doubt I can safely say the beef burger was one of the best I have ever had, with a chilli chutney to compliment the wonderfully juicy burger. The sirloin we ordered medium and was cooked to perfection, the meat was so tender it practically melted in the mouth! Over all the meals when fantastic! All I could possibly say to improve would be the atmosphere as it was quiet on our visit however we did visit mid-week. Staff where lovely and even offered us free doughnuts the chef had prepared earlier. Fantastic little bar and kitchen! I will defiantly returning!

Food was fab, homemade Yorkshires and mashed potatoes, roasts, loads of fresh veg and extra gravy without being asked, staff lovely, felt like I was at a friends mums house having lunch....perfect:-)

I visited the Pub and Kitchen on my lunch break so was worried about having to wait ages for my food - there was no problem with this. I ordered the cheese omelette and chips, the presentation was lovely, the portion sizes were good and the food tasted lovely and fresh. The decor is lovely and it was it has a very peaceful atmosphere. Would defo recommend.

Visited with a friend and had a few drinks and something to eat. I was dead impressed with it. Lovely atmosphere and mood to it.

Wow what can I say , we have visited a few places for afternoon lunch and was recommended the pub am kitchen . Thankful to us we visited when they have put a new menu in place .The food was second to none , my friend has never had a Chicken Caesar salad like it ,had all the purks of what it should be . Fab place felt very welcome would 100% go back in the future and realised it won pub of the year , loud and proud well done fab work !!

We've been here a few times for food and drinks. The service has always been pretty good and the food was excellent for the price. Way better than expected. The only downside is the music. Please look at your clientele and choose the music accordingly. An average 40+client base don't want to listen to charva music. I'd love to make this a regular haunt but it's make or break on the music!

Have been once. Would not rush back. Food was ok, service was no better. It is close to my home, so would be great to have given it a higher score and made it a regular haunt, but unfortunately I cannot do this.

I habe wanted to try this place since it opened has it looked like a great little pub,my wife and I were walking around the Christmas market in North Shields and wanted to go for a nice place to sit and have a good meal,so we went in,fist feeling was wow what anise homely place,so we sat and ordered the Sunday dinner, I had the beef and my wife had the chicken and both meals were very good and the prices were fare and the service was good,happy to have this place in the neighbourhood!! We will good baking!

A very nice pub well laid and nice a cosy, large selection of beers and wines . Very good menu with plenty of choice . Well worth a visit at any time .

Having tried out numerous Sunday Lunches over many years and still not found one that had everything right we were not expecting to much when we stopped by this Pub completely on speck.However what a great surprise, staff good and friendly and a very nice atmosphere.The Sunday Lunch which came quickly was exceptional,very tasty with proper meat and veg and the required trimmings.All for £6.95 each great value.Cannot comment on the beer as we were driving but every one seemed to be enjoying the afternoon in this very nice pub.We will be back.

Have only eaten here on a Sunday but the lunches they do are lovely, very reasonable price and very good portions. The staff are very friendly and there is a nice relaxed atmosphere to the place. Good selection of drinks and the menu seems quite good too, they do a number of special evenings such as tapas and currys.

It was late in the afternoon when we call for meals and refreshments, The menu was quite varied we had children with us and the usual dishes for kids were available but good portions the three adults meals were we very good and well presented.We did not partake of the extensive beers available this time only soft drinks,but we will be back when we have no children to sample the beers as well as having a more extensive meal in peace without kids

Must confess that never eaten here but amazing pub. Staff are exemplary and beer is well kept. Everyone is a friend waiting to be met!

Went back with my friend for Sunday dinner. We both had the beef, love how they carve it nice and thick and the yorkshire puddings are good. Lots of nice gravy in a little boat. My roast potatoes were undercooked but my friend's were cooked through and they were lovely. Not sure what they do to the mash, it looks like rice pudding and is a bit lumpy but tastes delicious, we were trying to work out what the secret ingredient was. The veg was reheated but ok, although mangetout reheated in a microwave will only ever go floppy and limp. We did go in after 3pm so maybe the veg was from earlier which to be honest is to be expected. We had sticky toffee pudding for afters, we were told that there was no cream so we had it with ice cream. It was nice but very stodgy and we could only eat a little bit. Not sure if this was a home made dessert, I normally ask but forgot this time.To sum up, the dinner was quite nice, good value and I would try again...... Oh and I have to mention this!!! There was a table of morons (about 6 males, 40 somethings) sat opposite the bar at a table, and I am not easily offended however THE LANGUAGE coming from these utter halfwits was absolutely disgusting and offensive, it'd have made a sailor blush- if I'd had my young son with me I'd have been straight over make no mistake. Not once did the bar staff ask them to tone it down, so a word of advice is this: think of your other customers and if this happens again, have a word eh! It was a disgrace! Hence why I've given a 'poor' rating for atmosphere.

As you can guess from our title, the misses and I went fir sunday lunch in the pub and kitchen. We both had beef, which was generously cut with homemade yorkshires and roast potatoes. You also get a boat of gravy and a dish of veg. Highly recommended.

My son and I visited the Pub and Kitchen last week. I'd heard that the food was very good and my son wanted to try the burgers. We loved the decor, cosy yet spacious, with grand tables and chintzy furniture combined with good lighting- they've done a good job with the place. Service was ok, the girl behind the bar who took our order was pleasant enough- the reason I have given an 'average' rating is when I asked the waitress for some extra napkins, she was talking to another member of staff and just turned her head round and gave the impression that she didn't appreciate me interrupting her conversation, she didn't approach the table when I spoke to her, slightly annoying and bordering on rude. And also, although the lady who seemed to be the owner/manager was really nice, she did not know if the ice cream we'd ordered had been bought in or home made on the premises when I enquired- surely she should know that! Nor did she offer to find out. Oh well. Despite those 2 things, we really enjoyed our food. I ordered the half pint of prawns, although messy and fiddly it was nice (I hadn't realised the prawns would be unpeeled), the prawns tasted fresh (although there was quite a bit of water at the bottom of the glass which suggests to me they may have been frozen) and marie rose sauce lovely. I then had the scampi, the home made tartare sauce was to die for (I assume it was home made as it tasted it) My son's cheeseburger in foccacia was juicy and he loved it, it was really good. I washed mine down with the Italian beer they sell which was heavenly. My son then ordered strawberry ice cream- now I have to be honest, when the girl put the bowl on the table it looked an absolute mess in the bowl, it had been thrown in with no regard to presentation and it was in a cereal-style bowl which didn't look good- I wouldn't have served it like that at home- I almost told her to take it away, however my son said that it tasted lovely so I let it go. Anyway we will be going back. Prices were very reasonable. Couple of little niggles but not enough to put us off going back.
