The Cluny's a great venue…read more But, as there so often is, there's a but... The Cluny's a great venue but on this occasion the sound wasn't great. A worrying amount of feedback throughout Rob Heron and the Teapad Orchestra's album launch made for numerous mildly annoyed ears and some serious death glares from the band in the general direction of the sound man. Having said that, there might have been a problem with the equipment or instruments or cables, and when the sound was good, it did stay that way for a while. I once watched my sound engineer friend set up a ten piece ska band in the basement of a tapas restaurant. Just watching this made for a terribly stressful experience. At the end of the night, he was one giant bead of sweat. Rob Heron's band were on the larger side that night, with additional brass players. So I get that sometimes things might not go to plan. Regardless, it really didn't make the night any less enjoyable and we all agreed that we'd come back to the Cluny in a heartbeat and even love to play as a band. It's a great sized venue with a genuinely homegrown feel to it. From the posters strewn across the wall, it's clear that the Cluny is proud of its local music scene. With a kick-ass kitchen next door and what looked like a knock-'em-dead selection of beer, the Cluny is quite the place for music in Newcastle. Oh, and the floor bounces, YEAH.

I'm a big fan of The Tyne Bar!

Regular live music is on offer so it's always a lively place to go. Real traditional pub atmosphere and selling locally brewed real ales at decent prices. Definitely worth a visit if you're along the Quayside or end destination after a walk or cycle along Jesmond Dene to Ouseburn.

Great place to drink!…read more This had offers lots of different types of beers. They are a huge Wylam brewery supporter so they host beer weeks and festivals at this location.

Amazing! Probably one of the best meals I have had in the UK. Admittedly I ordered items that are…read moremore about the sourcing but the preparation needs to be raved about as well. All of the small details shined along with the clearly great sourcing mastermind behind this establishment. I started with the oysters. I was amazed with them their freshness and buttery taste and texture as well as a brilliant horseradish sauce that didn't overpower but rather added to the experience. As a main I had the rib-eye with a peppercorn topping. If there was any negative it only would be to the imagination of the sides which were chips /fries and onion rings with some salad leaves. But do not misunderstand me here the main star was clearly the ribeye. Not only cooked to perfection but the sourcing of the meat was incredible. This is no understatement as I eats steak multiple times a week, always ribeye and most of the time US prime. However this steak was incredible and the peppercorn sauce again did not overpower the steak but rather complimented it. I finished with the cheese plate and a glass of port. The cheese selection was spot on and I exceptionally enjoyed the blue. The chutney was probably the best accompaniment for the cheese selection. Crackers were ok and I could have used a toast but it didn't matter. Service was impeccable, even in a rushed setting it was perfect. All suggestions were spot on, never felt rushed and it always felt friendly. I would highly recommend this restaurant and I would definitely come back and go out of my way to come back.

Absolute gem of a place with by far the best view of the Quayside in Newcastle. No fuss no…read morenonsense! You won't find any glamour here...it's a traditional pub with a cosy and lived in appeal so in other words a bit rough around the edges. Attracts a mixed group of people but normally those seeking somewhere laid back and casual. There is also a resident cat (check above the jukebox!) who has become a celebrity to those who visit the Free Trade Inn! I cannot find fault with this pub. Yes the seating isn't always the comfiest and the paint may be flaking off the walls but I personally wouldn't trade anything in case it upset the ambience of the place. If the weather is nice checking out the beer garden is an absolute must to soak up the breathtaking views. Also hurrah for a pub that offers a good selection of drinks that won't dent the bank balance. Only one last statement....try it for yourself!

Small cash only pub…read more This is a small cash only pub. Is located on the hill above the quayside. Really stunning views at times because they have a outdoor patio area. Lots of seating for all in the summer months. Also this location for fireworks nights is really fantastic. Loads of beers to choose from that change all the time.
