Review:
Medium sized pub on 3
levels with four small bars that has recently
reverted back from Slice to its former name Flynns. From the entrance a
small flight of stairs lead up to the main bar that
has a wooden floor and a small bar. There is limited
seating by the window that affords a nice view of
the river Tyne. There is also some more
comfortable leather backed seating along the
walls.
Opposite the bar there is a large standing area that
has shelving to one side. A widescreen TV is also located
beside the bar.
The decor is a mixture of coffee and
cream pastel
shades. There is small spotlighting to the ceiling
with some uplighting fixtures on the walls. On the way to the
upstairs bar there is a small bottle bar on the
landing that is usually open at the weekend. The
upstairs bar is decorated in the same style and
there is once again a small bar. There are some
tables and chairs
by
the window with more comfortable seating around the
walls. From this area there is an even better view
of the Tyne and the development of the new Sage
music centre across the river. Several mini TV
screens are attached to the walls above the window.
Downstairs from the main bar there is a basement bar
that can be accessed from inside or from a side
entrance to the left hand side of the main entrance.
There is a small bar with a wooden floor and a large
area for standing or dancing.
Live music
events are held in this area every Thursdy night. Regular music is on play at most
times with a party DJ a regular feature from 8pm
on a Monday- Saturday. All live sports are also
shown with live football featured. The pub
attracts a young crowd at the weekend and is also
popular with quayside revellers. It can get lively
on the weekend but can be a little quieter early
on in the week. The bar is fully air conditioned
throughout. A free function room is available for
hire on request.
Disabled access to the bar can be difficult as
stairs lead to all levels. Toilets are small and
clean.
Price:
Reasonable.
