Medium sized corner
pub that is part of the Premier Lodge Travel Inn and is
an excellent base to stay on the Quayside.
The
pub has a semi-circular wooden bar with a partly
carpeted and wooden floor. There is plenty of
seating throughout with tables and chairs.
The bar
is bright and airy with large windows to the front
and side which provide a good view of the River
Tyne. The Tuxedo Princess floating night club is
berthed directly opposite on the other side of the
river. The decor is modern with a smart ornate
ceiling and there is low drop down lighting. There
are modern pictures and mirrors on the walls that
give a more expansive feel to the place.
To the rear
of the pub is a separate raised dining area with
plenty of tables and chairs which can be used by
hotel guests or visitors. This leads through to the
main part of the hotel. There are several games
machines dotted about the bar.
The pub attracts a
steady throng of hotel residents and is also popular
with the young crowd. It can get busy on most nights
and is especially busy at the weekend.
Disabled
access is excellent as there is a lift to
all floors of the Premier Lodge. Toilets are very
smart and clean.
Price: Moderate.
