The Salty Sea Dog in North Tyneside - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Wife and I stopped for lunch on Friday beautiful sharing platter for a very good price. Also a good range of drinks. Staff excellent very attentive. Nice location along the fish Quay, will be going back soon..

We booked the first floor function room for a post funeral wake for 30 people. The buffet was absolutely amazing and the best most of us had ever had both in terms of quality and quantity. The staff were first class and the manager (Connor) was very accommodating in letting us amend the menu to cater for some vegetarians in the group. We couldn't have asked for a better experience.

Arrived at 1pm, order took at 1.30pm, food on table at 2pm, food was lukewarm, no offer of salt pepper etc. Won't return or recommend.

Great staff who are very helpful and patient, quick on their feet, food was lovely and the bar was a great spot to sit at, definitely would recommend to a friend or family member!!.

Me and my family came in on Monday for food and drinks and the service was great. Staff was very helpful with accommodating my family’s needs. The food was delicious and i would definitely go back!

Me and my friends visited the salty sea dog today for food and it was lovely, the staff were really friendly and i would definitely go back!

Terrible service, Two of us arrived at 2pm. We advised our server that we needed to leave by 3 and asked what were the timings for food. She took our order and said we would be sorted in plenty of time, and that she would make sure to pop our order through before the large group of 10 behind us. We sat and waited 40 minutes and then the food started to arrive for the large group behind us? The server never once apologised and seemed to have her knickers in a right twist, despite the place not even being that busy. We went to the bar at 2.50 to pay for our drinks and leave. She told a colleague to cancel our food order but still no apology from her. The younger server, who took our drinks payment for our drinks did apologise for our wait. Probably should have gave us our 2 cokes on the house for the trouble. Proper Hangry and won't be going back after that shambles.

we visited on sunday to celebrate a baby shower and gender reveal and I have to say we had the most fabulous time the private room named the captain’s table was absolutely beautiful. The staff were fantastic so helpful and always on hand to help with all requests such a friendly welcoming venue with a wonderful atmosphere ! the buffet was delicious varied and lovely selection of treats ! This is definitely a perfect venue for an intimate gathering or a large group celebration A fantastic day was had by all

Thank you so much to the team for everything you have done for a family members baby shower recently. The food was incredible and the french martini’s were wow!!! I will definitely be back and will recommend to all xx

Popped in for a drink and decided to order food too. Have ate here a couple of times before and we've always enjoyed it. We were served by Summer who was lovely. Polite, happy and welcoming. We had our dog with us and he was totally made a fuss of and given treats which he loved. I had a burger and my husband a flatbread. Service was great and we couldn't fault the food. The whole place was spotless, including the loo! Always a winner with me when the loos are clean. Definitely worth a visit!

Great for family and friends! Great service and friendly environment. Girl called summer was so accommodating and helped. Went out of her way to be so friendly to my little one. Really lovely trip. Will be back!

Grt place very welcoming. Dog friendly.Always quick service and very attentive to customers. We nd Lilah come here every week. Recommend other dog parents to do the same. Xx

Called in again as we do every week. Great service . Friendly staff. Most importantly dog friendly unlike some other eateries in the area. Highly recommended for gog owners. Our pooch Lilah always heads for the door. She knows where she is welcome.

This place is a short walk form where we were staying, a little aprehalesnive about taking our two dogs as we hadn't had them in many pubs before, but it was great, we arrived pretty late for food so staff checked they still had enough before we came in, gave us a quiet corner to sit in with the dogs and served us some some good quality Indian food and a couple of pints, staff were super friendly to the dogs and even gave them a couple of treats, a geeta place to come if your down a walk on the beach with Ur pooch and fancied a refreshing drink or something to eat before heading back, will come here again 😜

Amazing food and size potions. The staff were lovely!

Great service, everyone was really kind, food was delicious. Definitely coming back.

Didn't eat here. But did have a great pint there great pub and very polite staff

Lovely decor, outdoor seats and great choice of beverages. Friendly staff, no atmosphere however

Amazing fresh seafood and such good value for money right on the harbour in Simon's Town. Highly recommend the kingklip!

Mussels were absolutely amazing and generous portions for a very reasonable price. 10/10!

Dirty glasses and no teaspoons.

Lovely little bar with a nice friendly atmosphere. Popped in with kids for drinks and snacks. The girl on bar was friendly and helpful. Would return!

First time visiting, good bar playing good music, food was nice but could have done with a few more chips

Fab Place Very Friendly and Very Busy (expected as it was Good Friday) Food was Very Good, We got Fish n Chips 😋

Had a 45 minute wait for food obviously bank holiday busy but fish nd chips were awesome

Went on a Sunday with family. The pork dinner was absolutely beautiful. Plentiful and extremely tasty. Looking forward to a return visit.

Bought a bowl of chips, waited 1 hour for them, only received the chips after I reminded them. The staff were nice though.

Thanks to Summer and the team for an excellent Sunday lunch yesterday. The food was amazing and piping hot (welcome back chef). Warm welcome amazing atmosphere. I love this place

Went for Mother's Day lunch, food was excellent. Summer and her team were lovely, very attentive and welcoming. Definitely will be back for more.

Bad day for new chef,meals late,4out of 5 came to table,not as described. The staff were very apologetic. Shame coz menus looked good

This was my place to go to for Sunday lunch but not after today , waited nearly 40 minutes for it to arrive for it then to be warm not hot looked like it had been warmed through, ordered the all in but the dinner had no pork no crackling a small bit of chicken no were near as good as its been in the past unfortunately I won't be going back ..such a shame as I really enjoyed the Sunday lunches here ..gone down hill !

Visited early afternoon and sat inside for food. Staff were polite and friendly. Ordered Seafood Risotto and a Chicken Curry with rice, also a side order of chips. Meals were tasty and served hot, the hand cut fat chips were cracking. Would have given five stars, however curry should have come with a flatbread but was served with two small slices of bread and one bowl had several chips out of it so really should be thrown out. We would definitely return.

We had the tapas deal and it was excellent value. 4 tapas and 2 glasses of wine for £24.95. Really tasty food and thoroughly enjoyed the music

Have come to salty sea dog since it opened. The standard of drinks has fallen. The gin is just straight gin no fruit or anything else in the drink. Nit even in a gin globe. Love this pub but bar staff are not making an effort.

Worst cups of tea and coffee I've ever paid for.

2 bar staff on for a busy night trying their hardest to keep up (they did really well) Felt a bit crowded at times, the drinks menu was similar to The Ships Cat so try there if its too crowded

Fantastic pub, I love taking star my pug with me as she gets as much attention off summer who works there and as I do fab place , lovely atmosphere friendly , great pint lovely food , what more can I say , it’s an all round winner

We both had fish and it was lovely. Had to leave most of the chips, they were lovely but I was too full.

Had a great Sunday lunch, alot better than the Fox and Finch. Megan and Charlotte looked after us really well. Please try here if your on North Shields Fish Quay you wont be dissapointed.

Great cocktails even at closing time.

Cracking old fashioned cocktail!

Great bar - summer is the best bartender made me an amazing raspberry ripple 10/10 would recommend

Me and my partner came here for a new years eve dinner hadn't been before thought we'd try something different. The restaurant only had a few people in it it wasn't busy. Firstly we got seated at our table waitress forgot we were there waited over 20 mins for her to take our order, then when our food came I ordered more drinks and she forgot they were sitting on the bar for a while, she was too busy flirting with the guy that worked there. Will not return here they are not professional in the slightest.

Beautiful bar on north shields quayside. It's gorgeous and has a lovely comfy atmosphere. The staff are brilliant and can't do enough to help you. The place itself is stunning! Though it's three flights of stairs to the top function room floor. Toilets are accessible on each floor. The food was okay, nothing amazing but decent for the price. Would recommend for drinks.

Brilliant Christmas meal here Sat 2 December. Top floor private room for 16 good and true friends. Free glass of Prosecco was a very pleasant surprise. Very generous portions enjoyed by everyone. My first visit there. Can't wait to return soon. Many thanks Salty Dog Team.

visited yesterday for the 1st time with my family. food was absolutely beautiful & the portion sizes were huge. lovely little place!

Very friendly, music was subtle in the background. Plenty of time to peruse the menu. We had the steak baguette with chips. Was delicious and filling. The steak was tender and cooked perfectly. Very enjoyable lunch

Delicious food, lovely staff and music just very quiet in the background meaning no-one had to shout to make themselves heard. Would definitely go again.

Couldnt get parked on Front Street to get breakfast at Ora so we went to the Fish Quay. Okay, we had breakfast at the Salty Dog. Well it was good value for money only £26 for two large breakfasts with tea and coffee. The staff like in Ora are really nice and such a friendly place. Only one let down the blackpudding was awful. Overall a good morning.

Nice friendly place. Lovely tapas and cocktails. We will definitely be back to try some more of the menu.

Fabulous service - as soon as we entered we were met by a lady behind the bar smiling as she greeted us. The bar was empty as a party of four was just leaving. We sat at a table and ordered drinks then tapas. My mum opted for fish and chips which were huge. Me and my sister ordered a selection of tapas - patas bravas - meatballs - mushrooms - Scotch egg and a side of broccoli with chili. All the tapas were amazing and the price was really good! The whole experience was really nice and I have to praise Helen the lady for her excellent customer service - hard to come by these days! She's definitely a credit to the restaurant and even took the time to chat to us to tell us how they have live music on a weekend! Will definitely be back!

Lovely Sunday lunch took 45 minutes despite having booked. Appalling staff who ignored us the whole time who were rude clueless and unhygienic

Would have given this a 5* but not too impressed with a table adjacent too the toilets, smell was quite off putting - however the waitress was exemplary and the food (taps - small dishes) was fantastic, the singer that turned up was brilliant (and dealt with a load of rowdy lads well playing some planned and impromptu tracks) first time we had been here - if you like loud atmospheres whilst having your dinner then great . Feel like this could be way more than a loud pub/tapas bar as the quality of food. service and entertainment was superb

Visited here on a rainy Tuesday night so it was understandably quiet which initially put me off a bit, however, it was great service and lovely food. Will definitely go back.

Ranks among one of the nicest meals I've had. Thanks to Euan /Ewan for looking after us. We'll be back!

Sat outside for breakfast. Service was great and food delicious.

We had booked a table here for dinner but upon arrival we were ignored until I caught their attention, shown to a table that was sticky & unclean, with menus that were grubby and crumpled. There was no one else eating and we were shown to the most cramped and dingy table even though there were others available. It instantly put us off, we had no faith in care of the food with this experience so we left.

Avoid customer service is appalling and rude staff, waited 45 minutes for breakfast to be told the kitchen is broken and would not refund the full bill to compensate the drinks we bought to have with the food. If we were told sooner the kitchen was broken we would have obviously gone somewhere else, staff was not courteous

Was told no kale for kale salad would I like baby leaf ? No was my reply . Two mins later they’d found some ! White rice covered the kale ( that was the grains on menu) couldn’t find more than a few crumbs of feta ! No mint in the lime and mint dressing ! Teaspoon of edamame beans which looked like they’d been finely sliced !mango and avocado so mushy due to sitting in dressing at bottom of dish and the slight trace of a spring onion. White rice was used to bulk up dish but only added to the totally unattractive presentation.

Second time here! Great place with a great vibe! Fish and chips is massive and very good!

I had the Mexican breakfast, struggling to see what was Mexican about it, I had about 8 little cubes of chorizo, the avacado was very bland, they swamped my plate in hollandaise sauce, the muffin ended up soggy... The eggs where cooked very well but didn't get to enjoy them because of the amount of sauce. My partner got a basic fried eggs on toast.. No butter, bacon was salty as hell. No one even came and asked how the food was, I don't like to make a scene so I ended up leaving it. Shame because it's a nice setting and I'm sure other menu items will be nice

We often have tapas or Sunday lunch here and they are always spot on. We decided to try the captain’s breakfast And the breakfast muffin and we were very disappointed, sausage and bacon were plenty full, but had no colour to them at all looked like they had been. Boiled not grilled or fried, very unappealing, even the dog turned his nose up. They were cooked but very bland .

We went for lunch and both ordered belly pork. It was advertised as “crispy” which we love. When it arrived the gravy which had been poured over it had caused the skin to soften. When I spoke to the waiter about it he offered to take it back and crisp it up but it would take a while. This we refused and took the skin home and crisped it up ourselves. The food was nice and the service was fine but because of the gravy, the presentation of the food was disappointing. The restaurant is wheelchair accessible, toilets are on the ground floor but difficult to access if you’re a wheelchair user I think. There’s a function room upstairs but I don’t know if there’s a lift. There’s ample parking nearby. We’ll visit again and either choose something else or ask for the gravy to be served separately.

Me and my wife decided to have Sunday lunch. Went to the bar to order and stood for 10 minutes before i was served, ordered fish and chips and a roast pork,when it arrived the fish was lovely but the mash and veg was only warm, Pork was very fatty and gravy luke warm.

First and last visit to this pub, we put our order in for lunch and after an hour wait we had to go and ask where our food was, the barmaid said you been waiting an hour and said she would chase it up.

Great service, amazing food and lovely environment. Would 100% recommend the Sunday lunch and can’t wait to return!!!

Went for Sunday lunch, excellent service and food. Everything was faultless. I’d definitely recommend a visit

A lovely place with a cosy friendly atmosphere staff very helpful

While in the area popped in for some coffee, and noticed the breakfast menu. It was an impromptu visit but the Mexican eggs were absolutely delicious. Eggs perfectly done and a flat white to complete my breakfast. Highly recommend for cocktails on the evening too. Thanks you really enjoyed my visit today

Sunday lunch was hot in parts and cold in other parts But I would say if it was all hot would be nice

Beautiful Food ,Wine ,service and Lovely Atmosphere, First Class

Gestern hier gegessen, Meeresfrüchte Risotto und etwas indisches. Hat sehr gut geschmeckt. Aber zu viele Hochstühle an hohen Tischen, unbequem zum Essen. Als wir in das Lokal kamen, fragte ich die nette Bedienung nach britischem Bier, weil wir die übliche Plörre wie Stella nicht mögen. Sie sagte, dass sie 'John Smith's' haben, was wir dann auch bestellt haben. Es schmeckte etwas säuerlich, was es normal nicht tut. Kaum hatten wir gegessen, wurde uns kommentarlos die Rechnung und die Kreditkartenmaschine auf den Tisch Nr. 1 gelegt nach dem Motto "das war lange genug". Das haben wir so noch nicht erlebt. Unser Bier haben wir nicht ausgetrunken, siehe oben, und sind gegangen. Beim Rausgehen haben wir gesehen, dass es das vorzügliche 'Tiny Rebel' vom Fass gibt. Weiß die nette Bedienung denn nicht, dass Wales zu Großbritannien gehört? Zusammenfassend, das Essen war sehr gut, das Drumherum nicht. Werden nicht mehr wiederkommen...

Great pub, excellent food friendly staff, definitely call in again

First time for food here and would highly recommend it, there was four of us and we had a tapas deal per couple. We were not disappointed the food was excellent and the service was quick, nice bar will definitely go back again. 5 star.

Went this morning for breakfast and it was a great menu and great quality food at reasonable prices. Service was excellent and very quick. We came here last year for tapas food and this was amazing aswell.

Amazing food in a friendly atmosphere

Food is AMAZING 🤩 staff were lovely and friendly would definitely re visit! We ordered a salty burger and a honey chicken burger and went halves on each both were hot and fresh and tasted delicious.

Lovely bar, decided to eat for the first time. Food is OK, room for improvement, maybe ... The service though isn't good enough. Sorry. Food dried on to plates had to be replaced twice. If a customer complains about a dirty plate, surely you would make the replacement spotless? No, covered in greasy marks. Just water stains apparently. Well, I don't want that either unfortunately. Never mind....Great for a drink, we just won't eat here again!

Food was lovely all home made and nice inside. Good selection on the menu. Give it a try you won't be disappointed

Had the eggs benedict with smoked salmon was very nice definitely will return to try out the captains breakfast that looked very nice aswel nice friendly people working there

Great Breakfast, great service thanks.will come back as the menu looks very good . The food we had was well cooked and good quality ingredients.

Just been refurbished, looks good and food was nice

Food was tremendous staff very friendly will definitely be going back food and drinks where fairly priced and had a great selection of beers

We had Sunday lunch there and would go back. The servings were huge so next time will take a box for what we couldn't eat. Quality was also good with real roast potatoes. It seemed popular and the the only reason it didn't get given stars was the high-stool bar tables when the normal ones are full.

A super unique place with a nice relaxed atmosphere. We had different meals Sri Lankan curry for my wife and I had the Salty burger, both were excellent and we complimented the manager. The service was just as the rest of the meal with two...

Good food, attentive staff and lovely cocktail

We visited on Easter Sunday. The staff were very friendly. The Sunday Menu had a selection of roasts or fish and chips. The food was lovely food and arrived without much of a wait. Nice selection of beers, wines and cocktails. Well worth a visit...

I’ve just had a 50th Birthday celebration in the upstairs bar, from first booking until we left at the end of the night everything was perfect, all of the staff were brilliant, nothing was too much trouble, even down to asking for a drink, they didn’t have a bottle in the bar but Sam looked through the store cupboard & found one. I doubt many places would go to that effort to make sure you were happy. I can’t thank them enough for everything they have done to make sure everyone enjoyed the night. Thank you so much for being brilliant 🥂

Excellent service and very clean

Quick one after a meal will return and the boys loved the mocktails

We had a very nice fish n chips yesterday. Totally recommended

Popped in as the menu looked pretty good. We were a bit concerned as there was only two other people in the place! But, the food was really good, the service excellent, and the barman made us very welcome. We ate mussels and fries and...

Lovely Sunday Lunch. Loads of veg and did not skimp on anything! Had a table booked for 2pm but lunch didn’t arrive at our table for another 25 mins. However, it was busy and it did not disappoint when it arrived. Flavours were great and...

Dropped in mid week for a beer but ended up staying for food, wasn’t overly busy but good atmosphere, had the belly pork….was ok, scampi was excellent, wait for food was a bit long but food was worth it. Service was good

Called in Saturday afternoon for food drinks. Menu a little mis-leading regarding Tapas deal. Ordered: Mussels cold and rubbery, white wine sauce cold. Cod Goujons overcooked (def not fresh) Ordered “bread” and garlic dip, but bread turned up toasted, but was stale anyway. Twice cooked...

Popped in for a quick bite after having a walk along the fish quay. The tapas were all lovely and had a nice mix of dishes. Everything was excellent. We ordered at the bar as staff were very busy. The food came out promptly and...

I can't praise this place enough. We didn't book for Sunday Lunch but we were welcomed in. Staff were very helpful and friendly, but we were all impressed by the Sunday lunch. Homemade Yorkshire pudding and fresh veg and the meat was perfectly cooked. Absolutely...

Have been here many times pre Covid. Second time here since restrictions lifted. Prices increased, quality and quantity decreased. Flat bread used to be lovely, now a glorified pita bread...rubbish. won't go back again.

Visited impromptu as walking along fish quay We had Tapas and one had a steak sandwich Food absolutely fabulous, best steak sandwich I have had anywhere and tapas were generous and tasty Staff were friendly and helpful and overall a great lunch Would highly recommend

Had a fantastic meal. Mussels and chips. Absolutely gorgeous. Huge amount. Well worth a visit. Blithe was especially helpful when ordering and Summer when serving. Nothing was a problem. Will definitely be visiting again in the very near future
