On a recent visit we ordered two local specialties Northumberland homemade sausages and pork sampler plate. The sausages were served on heaping mashed potatoes with plenty of nice gravy. The pork tenderloin came nicely displayed with black pudding, and deep-fried, breaded ball. Restaurant has full menu and dessert; waitstaff are quite attentive. Gingerbread cheesecake was delicious with outstanding eye appeal. Two suggestions: a few additional choices for wine by the glass, and, slightly larger two-top tables and comfortable chairs allowing the diner more leg room.

Nevermind that, though, the Boathouse is perfection in every other way. I felt welcome as a stranger; John, the bartender, was very helpful in navigating me through the many local brews; the ambience is cozy and warm; the noise level is low so you can have a conversation with the one you're with or eavesdrop on the conversations of others easily (and if you're not from around here, the dialect is music to hear); the beers are delicious and varied and Munchies in the form of simple toasted sandwiches are yummy and super cheap. I don't know why you would be in Wylam if you aren't from here, but if you are you should get the hell over to The Boathouse.

We were planning to stop and eat here, and it was certainly worth pushing on. It was very nice to sit down, relax, and have some good food and drink before pushing on. We had an excellent lunch. The pub standards were all available, as well as several soup selections, salads, etc. They also had a very good beer and ale selection. Although unadvertised, there are several picnic tables out back for use at no charge. You also don't have to buy food from the pub to use them.

"Pub of the Year"…read more Yep. Pub of the Year 2005. Time to take down that sign, as this pub is stuck there. Bar has more pub snacks available than my local Tesco Extra. Card payments not accepted. However I'm sure the Spar next door can sell you a pint with more atmosphere. If you need something to eat from a plastic bag, this is where you need to be heading. Wondering why your local cash & carry has no 'board o' snacks' left? They are ALL nailed to the wall in here... Time for a refurb.
