Not a bad pub. Decent selection of ales and in a nice location too.

Having not long moved back to the NE... what a find this has been for me. A gem of a real ale pub in a great location. It's right on the banks of The River Tyne, adjacent to the South Shields Ferry Landing and is a great vantage point for viewing river activity inc. those impressive Cruise liners that creep into the river to reach their berthing points.The quality of the beer is outstanding and the variety is one of the best ranges you will come across.A lovely warm welcome was had from the staff and an even warmer welcome from the log burner creating a great pub atmosphere especially on weekends.Prices are a little on the expensive side, but then you get what you pay for..!!!Parking: There are only two or three parking places adjacent to the pub. Then there's two disabled spaces closer to the river, but these are limited to an hour.Best place to park is in the carpark for The Word I think it's called. It's just up from the pub and charges apply.

Very cosy pub with a log fire fantastic on a cold day, 8-10 cask ales on and they do a taster board 3 or 4 1/3rd of a pint glasses if you cant make your mind up. Barstaff are warm and welcoming. Waiting for the summer so can sit on the decking which surrounds the pub.

This is a great place to stop in, on your way home. Real ale House with good staff. I like the ambience of this bar. It's not a food pub.
