The best restaurants serving British food in Newcastle upon Tyne North East

Great value for money. Steak night at £23.00 inc a glass of wine & dessert. Service as expected from the students was very good overall. Would def return & often do. A credit to Dave, the team & the students.

Lovely coffee but the service was unfriendly at best

Lovely food and wonderful service! Will defo be coming back

Visited 09/11/24. This is a lovely place to eat. The staff were extremely friendly. We had to wait a while for our table, but our server explained that it was unusually busy and that the drinks we ordered while we waited were now on the house... as were the small aperitifs they served us shortly after. The food was delicious, and I do mean all of it, even the ingredients I normally wouldn't touch with a barge pole. We had a lovely meal, and the staff were extremely considerate and knowledgeable of my partner's coeliac condition. The issue began once we got home when, shortly before bed may partner started being violently ill. She's coeliac as I said, so sometimes this does happen even in the most careful of kitchens, unfortunate but understandable cross-contamination - or so I thought. Not an hour later I was also violently ill, and our condition continued in to much of the following day. If I was to guess, I think the issue was the "That Chicken Pie", which was the only dish we both had. We ordered off the Set Menu (50% cheaper than the usual Saturday menu) which normally isn't available on Saturday, but due to a typo on their website, we believed was available (they let us order from it without batting an eye - as I said, really lovely people and fantastic service). That dish isn't available on the tasting menu used on Saturdays so if there was a complication, I imagine that's where it was.

Last went a couple of years ago when I would have rated it 5 stars.. this time it's a 4. Reasons, although it cost less than our previous visit, we felt the quality of the food had been reduced to cater for that. Every mouthful on our previous visit was met with smiles due to the flavours of each dish from the tasting menu.. this time this didn't happen. Although good, starters definitely didn't have the wow factor at all, normal in taste just that they were fine, a 3 out of 5. Main courses were good though, still no wow feeling like previous visit, but still lovely (4 out of 5) and desserts were similar very good but not outstanding, 4 out of 5. Add in a £60 bottle of wine and a service charge, it makes it a pricey day for a good meal.. not a memorable meal which we had 2 years ago, which cost more but made us want to come back at a future date.. unfortunately our recent experience disappointed us slightly and we will have to go somewhere else to try and get that feeling again.

Great friendly service. Tasty starters and melt in the mouth slow cooked beef and lamb. No roon for desert. Recommended if in the area.

Lovely place to sit and enjoy a meal. Good food and excellent staff.

Well, where do I start!! I often go to this area to eat, I'd never heard of this place until my daughter and Son in law invited me for breakfast today. It's quite typical and fitting with its location. As I say, I've visited other eateries in the area. This place delivered on all fronts. A warm and friendly welcome, very efficient service (it's quite small, so you only get in if you're lucky enough to arrive at the right time). The breakfast lived up to the billing and some!!! I couldn't eat it all as its size outweighed any thing I've ever experienced, I'm sorry I can't reveal the cost because I didn't ask, when I got the bill for the 4 of us I just paid as it was definitely worth whatever they charge. The team of staff didn't disturb us unnecessarily even though there were people waiting for seats. If you're anything like me, you know when it's time to get up and make way for others. I would definitely recommend a visit but make sure your appetite is ready for the feast to come.

Top pub in the old Jesmond Railway Station. Hidden away and you wouldn’t know you’re right next to the city centre. Very nice atmosphere and pleasant staff with a good selection of beer.

Used to be unbelievable now it’s just another pub in town. Ah the memories

Had a great afternoon here with my wife. Great prices and the bar staff are tremendous. A big shout out for Claire the barmaid who couldn't have made us more welcome and went above and beyond to make our afternoon even better. This lovely lady saved us a great deal and welcomed us to a saving app. It's great. (Money off booze. Say no more). Thank you Claire. We definitely recommend this pub. It's stood the test of time and will definitely be here for a lot more years to come. Proper pub. Proper people and Proper bar staff. Thank you. See you soon 🍻🍻🍻

Staff very friendly, always make you feel welcome. Food great, beautiful venue

great pub, good atmosphere, good choice of beer. Service generally good. The fabric of the pub is perfect and always has been - please don't change it!

Out on Easter Saturday in fine weather and we were recommended the Beehive and they were not wrong plenty of easy parking, loads of people/ Families enjoying some wonderful food great service and fine weather. The menu had enough variety for everyone the service was excellent the staff knowledgeable of there wines was great. If you are ever in the area I can not recommend it highly enough.

Excellent service, disappointing Sunday lunch, slight redemption with an excellent sticky toffee pudding and good service. The three roast lunch had a very small piece of chicken and two small single slices of pork and beef, side of veg. Meat was disappointing, chicken dry, the beef fatty and the pork was fine. Veg cooked well and the service was very good, great with kids as well. Lovely setting, very disappointing lunch, think it was about £26 for the main so not cheap and offered very poor value for money. Kids meals were very good and the sticky toffee pudding for pudding was superb.
