No words can describe how good the food is here!! Highly recommend. The staff are super accommodating. We had a problem with our order which made us wait about an hour and half for food. However, the staff were hands down so respectful, and were quick to solve the problem for us. You can't fault quality service, and quality food. We'll be coming back on our next Newcastle trip!

Not many options open on a Monday long weekend so the pub was the first choice. Not a bad atmosphere and the staff were pleasant. Up market pub food so the parmigiana was the choice of the night. Not too bad. The salad was a nothing fancy and the lettuce was a little limp. The chips were good, crunchy on the outside, soft in the middle. The parmigiana was a generous size. Crunchy coating, chicken well cooked and not dried out and the cheese and toppings was a nice layer on top. Please clean the floors around the bar. Very sticky. Not a bad experience and good value for money.

Great location easily accessible by light rail. Fantastic staff offering friendly attentive service. The food choices, meal serving sizes and pricing is fantastic and superbly prepared, presented and served and absolutely delectable. Their Chili Prawn Linguine is superb. Live music also adds to the atmosphere. Highly recommended.
