The Strawberry in Newcastle upon Tyne

Visited to watch an away match with the crowds and the atmosphere were amazing, friendly people (even if some were highly intoxicated and got thrown out). The bar staff were fast but the service I had was very poor, rolling eyes having asked for a 2nd drink, ITS NOT MY FAULT YOU CAN'T HEAR ME AND WALKED OFF AFTER I SAID THE FIRST DRINK. Instead of just totalling up and shoving the card machine in my face, how about asking if there is anything else I would like before you complete the transaction. Basic customer service skills which the women didn't seem to have. Saying that, they were swift to exit those who were becoming out of control and in all, had a great time there.

Nice pint of john smiths be a better pub if just had clear windows to people watch

The boy and girl serving were very friendly during my visit. It's a very nice Newcastle United pub.

Get in early for rematch drinks

Went on a match day... was like sardines, but that's the way I like it.

A great place to watch an away match just next to the St. James. Great atmosphere.

Classic Geordie watering hole. Great for fans

It's the Strawberry, you'll love it or you won't. Avoid on match days, it's heaving.

Great historic football pub, packed with memorabilia any fan worth their salt will love a visit. Top Pub 🍻 H'Way

Fantastic pub, well worth a visit right beside the best football team in the world, always a friendly atmosphere and nice beer

Great atmosphere, especially on match days. Fantastic staff with amazingly banter, I left feeling happy and humbled

Fantastic pub, I love just being present, 25 26 years, I want you all to know, I feel amazing in your pub.

This place must be the most commondating place the staff are absolutely spot on always do anything to help make your night enjoyable run their socks off to cater for your needs friendly & if you've known them for years. HATS OFF TO YOU ALL 👏 🙌 Not many pubs nowadays are as friendly as this one 5⭐️

Traditional English pub within sight of St James' Park and full of Newcastle United memorabilia. Good plain fare. Good value. Good range of ales and efficient friendly staff. One of Newcastle's finest.

The staff is the best in Newcastle. They always make you feel like home.

Iconic football pub with a great selection of beers and very reasonably priced food.

Absolutely quality pub. Snuck away from a conference over the road for a decent drink and ended up staying well past closing, didn't give me that much grief for being a mackem either, the appropriate amount I'd say. They've also got a pinball machine!

The manager last night was fantastic.

Awesome atmosphere, and Lauren & Jane look after us like absolute pros ❤️

My favourite all time pub. Great food and service.

I thought that I had died and gone to Heaven.

The best staff, my favourite matchday pub

Brilliant atmosphere, Great prices, amazing food! Definitely a must go if you’re ever in Newcastle!

No Idea about the food but this iconic pub serves a great pint of ale and very reasonably priced. Excellent staff with good ale knowledge

Cozy pub. Good staff and good food.

Cracking visit as usual.. the team are always friendly

Food spot on really really nice, comes out hot as well which is a bonus. Cannie little pub in Newcastle, opposite Newcastle United football ground. The food really is nice I've had few from the menu so far and I havnt been disappointed yet. Generous portion size at affordable prices and the drinks nice also. Been many times now and will return with either family or friends. Staff are cannie also x

Good choice of beers and prices. Nice reliable and clean pub.

was racially abused at this pub. AVOID!

Historic pub by St. James' Park. I didn't eat anything, only excellent "liquid food" was served.

Great little pub with good service from friendly welcoming staff. Good range of real ales and good value for money bar meal.

Great atmosphere after the match

Don't come here often enough. Excellent service from bar staff. Pint of draught hieneken zero alcohol beer at £4.50 was excellent.

Never been inside the place but it looks nice from the outside.

Nice pub near the football stadium

Great bar with loads of choice of ales and so much NUFC memorabilia to feast your eyes on. Didn't eat, so can't comment on the food.

Went for a visit on match day last Sat (3 Feb), couldn’t get tickets, this was next best thing. Can hear the crowd from the upstairs terrace. Pity it was a draw.

Great bar at the foot of St James's Park, exceptionally good looking staff members, not a lot of people in, I found it to be on the xpensive side, so only stayed for 2 pints, it was clean, new tiles at the foot of the bar area, pool table, juke box and a slot machine are available to use. Toilets were of good standard overall good.

Brilliant function Room upstairs, just the right size for a decent gathering of people. We thoroughly enjoyed our night for my Dad's retirement party, drinks were a very fair price and the platter was great. Highly reccomend booking The Strawberry for a party or even just popping in for a pint or two 👌👌

Really gorgeous food polite staff and customers are always happy well respected for staff I'm happy I found it. It's only 1 or 2 times a year I go because I don't live in Newcastle

Part of the Cathedral that is St James park ..I've been visiting this venue since I was a young man ..visited on the lead up to Christmas & a very merry atmosphere to be had ® Recommend DJMc 💜

Good atmosphere for watching football. Good selection of beers.

Good crack, good beer and proper good cheese and pickle toastie!

very friendly bar and stuff! Food very delicious and beer out of 10.

The Strawberry, a must for all Newcastle fans to visit. Loads of memorabilia to look at. Good choice of real ales and friendly staff. 🏁🏴🏳🏁🏴🏳

Great food, good atmosphere and friendly staff

It was great to get in, before the game on Saturday

4 lads from Dublin we were told about this pub,lived up to our expectations,great atmosphere for Newcastle game,right outside stadium,, lovley staff,all had fish n chips excellent value,,,will be back

Great wee pub, close to Newcastle United's ground. Must be brilliant before home matches. Brilliant toon memorabilia on wall. Even had a programme on the wall of Alan shearer's testimonial, went to that game from Glasgow. Best home support in England. Away the lads.

Love the strawberry been coming on and off for years great atmosphere great beer and great bar staff what more could you want from a pub would recommend to all

Great atmosphere for pre and post match 🍺.

Quiet drink at midday after visit to St James Park

Great traditional pub with a friendly staff.

Great pub and brilliant atmosphere.

Great pub for any match at St James’ Park to see the Toon play 🖤🤍⚽️

Nice pub for some pints, especially the pub to visit on match day. There is a real English atmosphere here. We stayed here until 2.5 hours before the match because of a package deal at the stadium.

Never changed years since been here

Great pub was quite so not the full experience of match day but fantastic all the same good beer

Such an iconic bar, I've been going for many years now, always a great atmosphere be it match days or just a quiet midweek drink, staff are genuinely welcoming and friendly. Anyone visiting Newcastle, especially with an interest in football, this place is a must go just to see the memorabilia alone, great beers on draught, and they do a crackin' homemade chicken curry if you're peckish - amongst other things. Right across the road from St James' Park, pool table, Jukebox, roof terrace, kids and dogs welcome too!

Nice little pub gone with other half, few drinks and few games of pool didn't have food so can't judge staff friendly polite very welcoming

love the staff here, great place for football or just a few drinks!

What a lovely pub. Coming from London and being a football fan it's lovely to see this kind of pub with nostalgia. Popped in for a quick pint and was really mesmerised with the memorabilia and tradition.Took me longer to walk round looking at everything than to drink my pint. Very friendly staff and even gave me an "introduction" to the pub. Highly recommend.

No visit to Newcastle is complete without a visit to the Strawberry 🍓 pub, especially if you support NUFC. The Gallowgate end is a few footsteps away. I even managed to have a photo of me behind the bar. Great pub, great beers and most importantly a very friendly customer focused service. Thank you.

Great pub next to Newcastle United fc

Brilliant pub such a warm welcome on our visit for the footy Lewis top lad see you all next time we are up from Swindon

Great pub for a Newcastle United fan. Few yards from St James Park, full of Newcastle United memorabilia, clean, spacious, beers, coffee, soft drinks. Coffee is £2, Coke £2.60-£3, beer various. They take credit cards. Staff are very helpful and friendly. Atmosphere excellent, friendly, relaxed, chatty. They have a terrace area, open air. They have toilets. Great experience.

Only place to be on a match day. Love it!

You are not a Geordie unless you supped in here.

Nice friendly pub, good prices for beer in Newcastle and loads of club history.. must visit if you're a Newcastle supporter.

Memorabilia all over the walls is a particular highlight. Reasonably priced.

All round great little very friendly people, will certainly go back when we return to Newcastle. Great prices.

Quick as you like service and great atmos. Didnt have food but I've heard its good. Good turnout for a Friday afternoon. Beer was canny.

the service was fast, and the food was great. It's filled with lots of Newcastle United memorabilia (amazing) and is a perfect place to stay before watching a game. The best!

Very friendly staff,clean pub,great pint of ale

If your after a footy pub then this is the place to be, great service, staff are really friendly

A proper traditional pub in the heart of Newcastle. There is a great selection of drinks to choose from and an interesting collection of Newcastle United memorabilia on the walls.

We didn't eat, but we drank beer and felt extremely comfortable.....and were warmly welcomed as Germans....like everywhere we went as a Newcastle sympathizer, including in the surrounding area....but ⚽ is all around everywhere. ...football connects.....and this old authentic...I love it...and it's either like that or not...forcing it...not possible...

Great pub good staff had a great weekend thanks

Didn't have food, but was a really nice pub, 😁

Good food served quick. Staff are great and helpful. Great pub with Newcastle United memorabilia all around.

Friendly atmosphere and staff are helpful

Never changed, good beer and great NUFC memorabilia

Awesome pub been going for 20 years but the last 2 weeks I have had to queue allowing our drink to stand for 10-15 mins.

Queues to get inside after the football game, ridiculous as when we got inside the bar was empty. No explanation as to why they have implemented a new queuing system. Will.not be a returning customer due to this new feature. Being asked 5 times if we would like a shot after saying no is not great customer service. I am aware people may change their mind but if we want shots we can go to the bar. Good beer though!

Somewhere I've always wanted to visit, too busy on matchdays and not being a Toon. Great range of real ale and the homemade chilli was lovely (made my eyes water!). Staff very friendly and would recommend that you give it a visit.

A very busy hotel with loads of atmosphere

Fantastic atmosphere on a matchday, great ale and reasonably priced. Been in when it is quieter (non-matchday) and staff were really talkative and friendly.

Cool pub with great beers by the pump!!!!

Brilliant pub with a wonderful story and associations.Friendly staff and really good food.

Very welcoming, wonderful traditional pub, no frills but down to earth and so friendly.

Lovely pub with friendly staff.

The ultimate pub for a pre match drink, the staff work like a "well oiled machine" highly recommended

Lovely boozer plenty of nufc memorobilia

Always a good pint. I didn't know they did food so tried the nachos, I was well impressed, other people in my company had the burgers, they were well happy. Highly recommended

Great night out,fantastic staff 👏👏👏

Lovely atmosphere, friendly staff & fab surroundings (unless you're a Sunderland supporter!) 🙂

Nice little pub. Loads of Newcastle utd memorabilia. Not badly priced

Friendly staff and nice layout with a great upstairs terrace area. Food prices were very reasonable too and best of all, they have a star wars pin ball machine!

Busy bar but plenty of staff so quick service

Good place to visit but beer needs sorting out
