Now re-opened as a restaurant & bar. Four real ales on all in cracking condition.
|
Due to re-open in a few weeks time after a major refurbishment.
|
Now undergoing a major refit. Watch this space.
|
Still closed with no sign of re-opening. A small fire a few months ago might have sealed the fate of this once excellent pub.
|
Shut down a few months ago for refurbishment. There's a bit of a question about then it will re-open.
|
Grew up in area but moved away 20 years ago - went back last week to have lunch and a couple of beers at this pub - both beer and food (fish and chips) excellent. Plenty of choice on the real ales too, which is always a bonus.
|
Glad to here beer and food still good; one of my favourites for both on previous visits - Fitzgeralds deserve a medal for their quality pubs
|
A mile or so north of Whitley Bay town centre - but good for a stroll along the coast. Almost certainly the best pub in the area for real ale - the regular mini-festivals are excellent, with some obscure gems, and all well-kept.
Comfortable - but, being near the golf course, and in an affluent area, it gets a matching clientele. And the crowds at the weekends, on the look-out for the food can get a bit much. But there are far worse things - especially in the Bay!
|
It can be a bit souless at times - especially on the weekends when everybody and his dog turns up for food.
|
Excellent range of beers and wines. Good fod too.
