Waggon Team in Gateshead

Food was excellent, service was friendly and helpful. Found it a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Visited on a week day lunchtime and was pleasantly busy but still plenty of space.

Visited this great pub three consecutive nights whilst staying at the Premier Inn. Staff are amazing so is the food. Only rated 4 stars as on the third night 5 meals were fantastic my steak was raw in the middle (not what I ordered). The other 5 in my party had finished eating before I got my meal replaced. Don't really think a complimentary drink was the correct compensation for an under cooked steak.

The best local pub! Very welcoming, great service and better quality food. Would recommend to anyone local or even just visiting.

Great atmosphere, lovely staff and food is always good. Good selection of drinks too.

Good honest food, served hot. Excellent value fo money and lovely tasting food. The specials board is great value for money, and lots of different specials on different days. Very friendly staff.

Come in fairly regular, always good food with great service. Great spot to watch the match or darts.

Fantastic, friendly and efficient service, we enjoyed our meal and didn't leave anything, the prices are very reasonable, good atmosphere and lovely staff who make you feel welcomed, will definitely be back

Great services very friendly staff will 100% be back.

Didn't feel very friendly or welcoming to me or my brother tonight. We often go to the same chain at Burnopfield and they are world's apart friendly, welcoming, chatty, like they actually want your custom. Food was nice tho.

I was at the waggon last night celebrating my dads 70th birthday and would definitely recommend this place meals were fantastic and staff were so friendly and helpful will definitely be returning

I have used the Wagon Team for 45 years I would often call after work and have always found it to be a friendly welcoming place ---- A true local indeed !! . Alan R

Pensioner special a give away, plenty food on plate was lovely too.

Didn't have food so I can't say what the food is like. But the price of a pint is expensive, bartender serving had a face like a slapped arse. Walls could do with a lick of paint also

Saturday lunch quiet on arrival,but soon got bussier . Friendly and helpful staff

A pleasant experience, food was good, place was nice and warm and clean. Staff were great 👍 I will return x

Food was ok fish and chips ,fish small chips nice,Crispy chicken not Crispy, spoilt it by covering in sauce, maybe have sauce on the side not over meal to make it soggy, still tasted ok

Been a few times for food and drinks, and can never fault it. Great atmosphere, lovely food. 10 out of 10!

Food was very sparse, you think they would take the main dishes away before serving deserts. Barmaid was so fed up looking. Toilet seats broken in the ladies too.

When you first walk in, The Waggon Team is always clean and inviting. You are also greeted with a hello from members of staff. Your drinks are brought to the table and you don't wait long for your food. When your food arrives it is always hot and very enjoyable. A member of staff will always ask if everything is to our liking and is there anything else they can do for us. Friendly staff that make you feel welcome.

Love coming to the wagon food is so nice and cheap and staff are so nice and friendly served by Ed and food was bought over by Ali I had a steak n it was perfectly cooked

Great staff and nice chilled atmosphere the food is well priced and the offers that are on are great, won't break the bank.

Great service I'm a clean friendly environment. Where you have friendly staff and great food. Caters for large party's or couples with the same wonderful service.

Very frenzy staff gteat food worth a visit

All round good service, amazing food and fast service. All of the food was hot fresh and really nice. We will definitely be back kids loved!!

Food was lovely and came out fast after ordering. Currently got a 2 for 1 deal on some food and drinks which is canny! Would definitely recommend

Great friendly family pub. Food is decent good service

Absolute disgrace my 8 month pregnant best friend came for food today at this pub. She bought fish and chips. After eating this she then projectile vomit. now very unwell in bed. Do not go for food here utterly vile

We came for Christmas Day lunch and the food was nowhere near the wagon team standard. I’m currently speaking via email with the manager to see how we can help them make improvements. The veg was hard, turkey was fatty but after fat removed it was edible and the Yorkshire was stale as though it had sat all morning and we were early sitting. We didn’t get any of our 4th course as after we had to ask for coffee she just assumed we all drank with milk. Soup was ok if you like spice/curry. Pudding were fab but you can’t really get that wrong!

lovely staff, always get my chicken wings on a Tuesdays and Thursdays, warm and friendly staff

One of the better chain pubs, food always served hot, quickly and well presented. Staff always friendly and efficient.

We had a pre-book Christmas lunch which was spoiled as they didn't have enough staff. One chef/cook and one server. Our starters were horrible and our main which came an hour after we finished the starter was crap. All pre packed rubbish and no-one could eat it was disgusting and to top it off one of my party found paper in the stuffing. No apologies were made on complaints other than I'll be there in a few minutes. They took ages to rectify this as they kept serving other customers. We finally got a refund. My advice if you want a great evening and good Christmas food avoid this place 🤬 would rate zero but no option

The staff are Great, very friendly and personable. The atmosphere is nice and the pub is lovely and clean. Only issue we had was the new menus, our favourites have all been removed (the challenges, deserts), we will 110% be back, when the menu changes.

Great staff, great service with a smile and a brilliant atmosphere. Food was lovely and quick.

Go here every time we are in the area. Consistently great food and pleasant staff

Good value for money staff really nice and friendly and meals didn't take long would definitely go back

Just spent the afternoon in the Waggoner watching the Rugby. Made to feel very very welcome, the food was excellent and the staff very friendly and helpful. Met a great bunch of ex- rugby players which all added to the great atmosphere. Would highly recommend. Thank you. Smith.

Food is always spot on in here 😋

Great place for a reasonably priced bite to eat. Thursdays especially after 8pm as they sell 2 pints of Madri or Birra Moretti for 7 quid! Can all get 2 mains for 12 quid during the week. Quiz night on a Thursday is also a bonus!

Never been here before for food but was not disappointed, my partner had the mushroom & garlic bake while I had the tandoori temptress burger with onion bhaji on top, both were very nice and will definitely be going back, staff very nice as well.

Lovely place lovely staff,and food delicious 🤤 update!! 2nd time we went steak was chewy and inedible for my partner so he asked the person who was serving us to sort it out but that young member of staff was very cheeky and told us to take our food to the chef because he had clocked off or to come back next day when he was back on shift,which was confusing that he expected us to take the steak into kitchen ourselves,but spoke to another member of staff which he offered free drink and dessert.

Everything spot on meal was excellent

Nice, spacious, comfortable place for family meal. Kids (toddlers) friendly. Staff friendly too. Ample parking..

Lovely grub fab staff, great deals

Some of the best staff, you'll ever find! Always friendly, kind and helpful without lurching around. The meal deals are great value and if you get a meal with onions, they can't be beat! Dessert menu is ok, but more options would be nice.

Lovely food & and the staff are very friendly.

Absolutely 1st class can't praise all of the staff elnough food was perfect will b back soon very reasonable prices made a birthday meal perfect

Great afternoon fantastic food great atmosphere definitely will be returning thank you.

Ok. A sports bar really. Food looked ok although we didn't eat. Mainly grills.

Sunday lunch a disgrace powdered mash tiny frozen Yorkshire veg frozen and meat not up to scratch I would not recomend

The food here is great . Not too expensive during the week

Teated very badly by manager full report submitted to Green king head office . Explaning his arogant attitude . Our party of 12 left in disgust and wont be returning there again Staff are very nice friendly and helpfull unlike the manager

Very nice food great portions great price

I had the most amazing staff serve us + the place is really tidied up and smells nice too 😊❤️

Have been coming here on and off for a few years now. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The food is competitively priced (albeit not the biggest of portions), and tasty. They have special offers on regularly - eg Over 60's 2- course meal for £6.50.

My partner and I are regulars at the Waggon, the food is delicious, have great offers during the week, and the staff are lovely and friendly!

My partner and I are regulars at the in Waggon, the food is delicious, have great offers during the week, and the staff are lovely and friendly! Highly recommend the Tikka Tandoori skillet and steak flatbread in the picture 😋

Ordered a burger, which was a bit pink inside, ended up with food poisoning

Went for a family meal. Really great food, staff couldn’t have been nicer. Atmosphere was lovely, we can’t wait to go back.

Was here for the England match and it was an absolute phenomenal night. Staff were friendly and the service was very quick .

Always is spot on not a bad price to well recommended 👌

Last visit to Waggon Team pub was approx 20 years ago. On this visit today …. Really lovely, friendly, helpful staff, really good menu, good range of meals, decent prices, lovely environment. Very busy teatime with loads of families and kids. Afternoons quieter. I’ll definitely be going back.

Great place, food was spot on and service was fantastic

Good food and service as usual :-]

Food absolutely amazing here really loved the chips. Staff fantastic, great service very friendly. Didn’t have to wait too long for food. They have great deals on which means amazing food for an even better price. Would definitely be going back here. They have a selection of different meals so suitable for the whole family.

only had cola, because I enjoyed Burger King for lunch. The others were more than happy with their steak

Visited on my birthday 30th may 7.30pm with family of 7 the meals were all lovely, staff plesant and lovely and clean, we love the idea you can bring your dog in. We have only been here twice last time was on xmas day 2023 and an amazing meal, my mum is disabled and the staff could not be any more politer it made our xmas special as we brung our 2 dogs also. We will be back again thankyou on behalf of our family .

Nice and chilled. Clean service good 😊

Change menu.Chicken was dry.Small portions for more money.Old menu was more clear than new one.Every single drink have half glass of ice,even I’m ask without

Food was decent, reasonably priced and the atmosphere was really good.

Just returned from having the finest mixed grill I have ever tasted I travel a lot for work and nearly always opt for this meal, but I highly recommend this one. I had it with rice instead of chips, steak. pork, chicken and sausage all amazing complimented by super tasty onions Service friendly and welcoming thanks for the experience see you next month

Couldn't fault anything for the price.

We have just visited this gem of a pub . The food is 1st class we went for the chicken share platter it was amazing, lots of choice and for £15.99 it was well worth it. We shared a choc sundae as we were both full off the meal. This pub is soo friendly and the staff never stop and are still the friendliest ever. The manager is a nice friendly guy who gets involved when busy. They even have a dog menu which I think is fab. This is our go to pub every few weeks when we get out. We highly recommend please give them a try you won't be disappointed.

Been here a few times over the years (not a local) and the place never fails to impress with there food and hospitality

Very friendly welcoming team. Food is good and services is quick. Just like to mention Mel always goes above and beyond for every customer. Her customer service is exceptional she is a great asset to your team. Thanks for service Mel

Nice food, service and atmosphere

This a great dog/family friendly place. Food is fine and always a choice of decent beers. Staff are excellent.

We used this venue to have a christening for our daughter. The space was perfect, the staff so flexible, friendly and accommodating and great value for money. I would highly recommend. We had a great time and the venue made it so easy in terms of preparation, decorating the space and being generally fab. Can't thank them enough!

Had Melanie serve me and Libby they were both fab and friendly and welcoming and would recommend family and friends to pop in and have food as it’s a great environment

Food is fab. All the staff are absolutely amazing and go out of there way for you, even when they are rushed off they’re feet they’re so friendly and do anything for you. Staff deserve a medal. Especially MEL. She goes out of her way every time we come. Including, karl, libby and mark. The staff make this place. And food is always lovely. Thank yous!

My grandson took me here for first time a few weeks ago so I took my husband and the food was amazing,one of the best gammon my husband said in a long time two meals 1149 amazing offer,will definitely be back

We visited on the 20th Feb at 6.30pm and ordered Hunters Chicken and Gammon from the 2 meals for £11.49 menu. Both meals were cooked to perfection. The gammon was thick and juicy and the chicken moist and tender. Very good value and cooked very well.

Perfect family friendly pub, allows dogs and accommodate for them with a doggie menu. Excellent service to both humans and furry babies. It states outside its dog friendly snt come in if a dog might offend you 😜

Just been to thus lovely pub and the team were so nice and the service and food was fabulous. I recommend a visit.

Meal was average and meal interrupted by a yappy little dog whitch kept yapping all the time we were in the pub ,personally I think if food is being served then no dog's allowed, and I think the staff should have asked them to go outside till dog calmed down ,to many pubs catering for dog's not people nowadays

Cracking pub, very friendly some great meal deals mid week

Another good experience at the Waggon Team, service and food both of high standard. Consistent levels and a friendly atmosphere. Well worth a visit.

I have eaten here before and food has been nice in the past, I had a burger and chips, chips were cold onion rings cold and burger not very nice at all. As staff if they had a new chief as it was as nice as normal and they were a little rude.

Brilliant trip out to the Waggon Team at Team Valley, Ed and the team are amazing! Lovely food, I had the soft tacos with crispy chicken and they were gorgeous. We’ll 100% be back again! Such a friendly lovely atmosphere. 100% one of best pubs around! Very dog friendly.. loves the pouches and they treat them like royalty

What a fantastic place…. The staff are brilliant go over and beyond to make sure their customers are taken care of. Lovely atmosphere.. very friendly… food is great and the price is even better… Ed and Mark are the best staff you could get! Highly recommended…

Fantastic family friendly pub with great staff and great food. Always welcome smile from the staff. Edd does a really good job.
