General information: If there was ever a reminder of what drinking in Victorian days was like, you’ll find it at The Bodega. One of the most popular venues in Newcastle, and the pub where staff from other pubs go for a drink, it boasts a traditional long bar, Victorian stained glass domes, elaborately tiled floors, and lots and lots (and lots) of history. As CAMRA Newcastle & Northumberland 2005 Real Ale Pub of the Year, you can also expect a true commitment to offering the very best real ale. And when you combine that with simple lunchtime snacks, a great mix of people, large screen plasma TVs, and friendly staff, it’s the perfect place to relax before or after visiting nearby St James’ Park, the Journal & Chronicle Theatre, or virtually anywhere else.

Busy city centre pub with plenty of (necessary) standing room. They had the Stoke -Sunderland game on on live but not a soul seemed (or admitted to be) interested in it. Not many unusual ales on but had a decent pint of Black Sheep.

An excellent pub, part of the ever reliable Fitzgerald estate. Always a good choice of beers. Gets mobbed on match days but the staff are always on the ball

Gets busy on match days, but always worth a visit. For my money, Newcastle's best pub. Great beers, brilliant surroundings. Love it.

Very friendly and informative staff. Eight or so top quality beers. I'd been in previously when nearly all the ales were 5% plus, but this time there was a spread between 3.8% and 4.6% - probably as it was a lunchtime.

Top pub and always worth a visit on a trip to Newcastle. Double it up with a visit to Tilleys a few doors down.
