More of a bar than a pub, but with 8 handpulls on, they clearly are promoting real ale. Toilets are nice. I spent a pleasant 20 minutes chatting with a Camra couple from Edinburgh.

The pub was filled with affulent looking Newcastle folk reading newspapers or just people watching. Nice enough place but more of a bar than a pub. Had a perry on too.
BeerABVScoreNotes
