Tilleys Bar in Newcastle upon Tyne

A really nice pub. The staff are very friendly and welcoming. Had myself a couple of pints of chocoholic ale which went down a treat. Highly recommended

Great helpful bar staff and great atmosphere.

great pub nice staff delicous beer and cider

Great pub in Newcastle city centre. Extensive selection of cask, keg and packaged beers. Good option for a drink before shows at the Tyne Theatre given that it's pretty much next door.

First time for me at this Good Beer Guide entry in 2024. An old trad exterior but has been completely refurbished inside. Always appreciate when the barman pulls the beer standing in the pipes overnight off before serving resulting in an excellent pint. TNT Sports on the screens, Smooth music on in the background. Charging points dotted around.

We didn't eat but enjoyed a few drinks. The atmosphere was great. Everyone was polite and friendly. Staff have great customer service skills

A lovely and tidy pub. An excellent selection of beers.

A proper pub with a relaxed atmosphere

Always a good spot in town - great selection of beer, friendly staff, good location.

Yes we had a nice visit the staff were ready friendly

Nice pub, feels more like a local than a city center bar.

Always amazing. Remember when it was a cheese and pate bar. We moved away and 25 ago and whenever we are back in the toon we have to go there. The beer is always amazing with superb choices and rare beers. The staff are so welcoming. Just great.

Popped by for a quick pint. Good choice of beer and top staff 👍🏼

Really friendly and great atmosphere

Great selection of ales. Love this pub

Great bar with friendly staff. Sport on the telly and a big screen. Excellent Guinness

I've visited this bar many times and will continue to do so. My favourite real ale, Titanic Plum Porter was being served, so had to call in. Great bar, great staff and well kept real ales. Highly recommended!

If you're particular about the beers you're drinking? Pay this place a visit, beers for every taste, weak, strong, very strong, they're all here. Highly Recommended for Beer Lovers.

Great bar with an alright selectioj of beers, atmosphere spoilt by bar staff throwing bottles in the bin, such an unsettling sound for customers.

great little pub. lager on tap was lush. cant remember what i had, may have been Madri or Moretti

Only drinks doesn’t do food but busy place quick service. Clean and friendly next door to the theatre

Lovely bar good beer selection, cool atmos.

Loads of choice. Standard beers you'd get everywhere to local craft beers which you won't have tried before. Friendly crowd where you can go with mates or turn up by yourself and have a chat with some randoms.

This bar is a hidden gem. I've passed by many times and happenstance dictated that i went in. I can't judge too much as I only stopped in for a quick couple. I didn't have any food other than some warm pork scratchings. Which were delicious by the way! Atmosphere, was really calm and chilled for a busy central bar, which was refreshing for a busy Saturday afternoon. The beer selection is phenomenal, ales galore. A quick couple for me quickly became a conundrum but I managed to settle for a brown ale (can't quite remember the brewery as there was so many!) But that was a lovely problem to have, and the beer top notch. Next time, I'm staying, and trying all of them!!! Maybe some proper food too.

Großartiger Pub. Perfekt um vor dem Spiel ein paar pints zu trinken und darts zu schmeisen. Sehr guter service.

Cracking bar good pint and service

Didn't eat and for a match day got served quickly.

I have to say, every time I come in, the toilets are IMMACULATE. This is so so so rare for a pub.

Nice pub. A good few years since I was last in, but as good as I remembered it. Great value on drinks too 🥰

Had a pint of Cameron's and it was a bit stale, they had been shut for a couple of days ,so......... Normally 👍

Très bon bar! Super choix de bières et bonne ambiance. Les serveurs sont super sympathiques! Fléchettes à disposition!

Great pub, Moterhead beer, great staff. Thx for the fantastic night after the Levellers concert one week ago🍺👌 We’ll be back guys 30 sept or 1 oktober👍

Love Tilley's bar, best place to be for your craft beers and ales. Definitely a favorite with the locals.

Great little pub with a brilliant selection of craft beers! Staff are very friendly! Highly recommended!

Good ambiance, drinks and service

Popped in for one at the weekend. Staff were lovely. Good atmosphere

Insane selection of beers and cool staff. Just off the centre so busy when the footballs on. Pukka decor

Great bar to stop for a pint on the way home.

Loads of beer selection. . .great in my eyes Not busy ...was early afternoon 👍🍺🍺🍺

very nice pub with many special 🍺 good atmosphere direct against the theater opera

Lovely bar. We didn't eat here. Dog friendly.

Nice pint of Guinness, best I've found in Newcastle, temperature could be cooler tho. 2 boys were friendly chaps inside the bar, overall nice spot. Toilets were clean and place was spotless

Been a while since I've been, but the times I have been the place has always been great, staff friendly and nice beers!

Cracking selection of pints, with comfy seating and hot pork scratchings what's not to like!

great place loads of atmosphere

Great choice of beers and cider.

Cool, nerdy, excited staff. Wild wolfhounds. Back room still without a purpose when people just want to sit in it. I love pate and cheese. I never had time for the pate and cheese room. Unless you are on a bet to match drinks on withnail and i the cinema room didnt work. Nobody played darts when i was in. I dont think they will? Maybe it could just be seats. Just a thought...

Great place. Good music, chilled vibes

Lots of ales available. Not far from the train station.

Amazing bar, great staff and great place to have a pint or five.

Good selection of beers, plenty of tellies to see the football and friendly staff.

Great bar, fantastic atmosphere, loads of different beers.

Definitely a pub for us oldies compared to the other pubs in the locality!

Stopped off before and after a gig at the Tyne theatre.Nice atmosphere very friendly efficient staff.Made my wife's night when I think they call him Brin came over as I was holding merch from the gig to tell us Mark Chadwick was in the bar , he then asked one of the staff to get a marker pen so we could get our merch signed .Made a fabulous night that bit more special.Thankyou.

Good selection of beers and friendly staff

Quite afternoon drinks with a mate in a pleasant, friendly atmosphere.

Nice pub, quick service, and serves a good pint of Guinness. Only popped in for a pint, but good bar

Wide range of beers. Friendly staff. Awesome bar.

Great atmosphere, fantastic for sports viewing. Nice staff

Brilliant pub for football. Possibly the most efficient bar staff ever. Watched the Cup Final here and it was rammed, but you were never waiting more than a couple of minutes to be served and for most rounds it was instant. Highly recommended.

Great service and atmosphere for my first visit. Will definitely be back

We stoped for a drink or two and It was okay nothing special I guess.

Absolutely Love Tilleys, been going for 40 years, never disappoints, superb range of beers and very friendly / helpful staff.

Nice atmosphere toon game was on...liverpool fan staff v good

Great refit . Looks like a bar again not a waiting room at the morgue and to top it all they've even done the toilets. 😀😀

Class pub for a pre-match pint 🍻

Great pub and a great pint of tillys own beer would recommend 👍

Large selection of ales and ciders

It's OK. Found it a bit "flat" when we were in for a Saturday night.

Decent beer and a friendly welcome! :)

Good selection of drinks at reasonable prices with a good atmosphere and friendly staff.

Great selection of beer, unfortunately a coors light was brought for me

Only started going in recently. I have to say the service you receive is spot on, the staff are friendly and knowledgeable about the Beers/Ales they serve. The selection of drinks available is plentiful, you will always be able to find something you like. I love it and will certainly be back very soon.

Cool, laid back spot. It seems like a good place to watch sports - they had soccer on the TVs with the volume up the evening I was there.

Much needed TV's now in there but plastic glasses no need for then hardly a holigan bar

Great apart from plastic glasses

It's a bar to get beer in what it says on the tin

Loved the place great atmosphere very very busy for the England rugby match Loads of different beers to buy that suit everyone Even more interesting is that they have a pork scratching machine ... try it for yourself you won't be disappointed 😌

1st time in there, really lovely pub good staff definitely go there again soon 😀

Very good beer if a bit expensive.and plastic cups 😢

Still - Great beer and friendly staff

Great music. Great beer. Love this place. Always a go to place on a day/night out

First time in here. Really nice atmosphere very nice staff. Almost face planted the floor going into the toilets and I'd only had 2 drinks.... Might put a bigger warning about the step on the door.

I used to love this place - it had a teriffic selection of beer, the music/atmosphere was great and I could happily ignore how much of a dive it was. It's had a few refurbs since and the beers today are largely the generic big brewery beers. Decent place to watch the match though.

Nicely done out after the refurb. The fruit flies are still a nuisance.

Nice bar, great staff. They even put the football on one game just for me. The photo was a guy showing the tricks the dog does.

Nice clean pub, very friendly atmosphere and the doubles....well, I'll just leave that there!!😂🫣 Staff also very helpful and friendly, definitely be back the next time I'm in the Toon!!

Decent selection of ales and largers. Canny pre match atmosphere. Decent.

Love this place, just been recently refurbished but still managed to keep its character and charm, bar staff very friendly

Good beer and pleasant atmosphere.

Used to love cosh Tilleys but the refurbishment has robbed the venue of all it's past character. Such a shame 😒

Stayed quite near to Tilleys Bar so went in a few times.Good choice of beers and lagers.....bottled wine priced really well.Service so friendly....loved the music choices played in the background.Lastly the toilets and bar were so clean....terrific place to enjoy a pint in.

Has changed recently, has became more roomy and lighter with new decor and a sports theme, new TVs and no more booths. Still has the same wonderful bar staff, however! Only time will tell if the changes are for best

Ok bar looks like it has just been refurbished very nice

Absolutely amazing bar and staff. Cracking choice of beers. And I am always made to feel welcome. Extra special thanks to the bar tender lovely wee Scottish lass. Exceptional customer service. Will be back in again really soon

Beer tasted like vinegar but staff says that's the normal taste

Freshly refurbished. Pleasant pub with a good coffee and wine menu, and a wide range of beers on tap including their own Tilley's lager and beer.

Tilleys has always been and always will be one of the best bars in the toon. Looking forward to seeing the refurbishment. Next time I'll be able to remember leaving the place 😅😂. Thank you for the hospitality as always everyone!

We called in before going to Tyne Theatre but were plagued by midges. Beer was good as was the wine, prices reasonable but we won't be back
