Late afternoon (4 ish). Very busy inside and out, mainly with city types. I sat in the main bar and “people watched”, mostly men in suits talking, some listening! Went through the side bar (Keats) on the way out - this looked more relaxed. I liked it.

Early afternoon on a Thursday and busy as would be expected for a pub in this area. Very good service from friendly bar staff. This was my first visit to this pub although I must have walked past it hundreds of times when it was a 199 house.

I notice that this pub has two entries on this website – not sure what to do about it. It is typically busy in the early evening tonight, although I find a perch in the Keats Bar.

Evening visit. Shouty City types in the Globe bar, almost drowned out by the over-loud music. Rather more civilised in the Keats bar.
Tyne Bank - Silver Dollar | 4.90 | | Dry, golden bitter with high hop rate. |
Moor - Revival (was 3.8%) | 3.40 | | Hazy (un-fined) gold colour. Nice fresh, crisp, light hop tastes. |
