| When you leave Whitley Bay's grandiose Metro station by the main exit, turn right along Clarence Place and after a 100 yards or so you will find Algernon Place and the excellent Rockcliffe Arms. This is a comfortable side-street pub which caters for a good local trade and serves up good local ales. It has a single bar but with a couple of seating areas and a very pleasant atmosphere (lots of timber/carpet and traditonal furnishings). The beer was fine and like a lot of pubs in this area they promote local breweries (although the huge keg beer fonts tend to dominate the bar counter). No food but you can get a sarnie in the station buffet. I didn't go anywhere else in town - no reason to - as this was spot on. mcroyal - 16 Dec 2012 12:45 |
| Just about the only 'proper' pub left in Whitley Bay - a town where most of the other watering holes have been given over to the alco-pops and designer lager kiddywinkies. The Rockcliffe has an excellent selection of real ales, a friendly atmosphere, and does not serve meals - its a PUB. Dogs allowed, and no children after 7pm. Suits me. micmac47 - 17 Oct 2010 19:59 |
| Great little local pub close to Whitely bay town centre. Well worth the short walk, ask for directions. hartlepool - 18 May 2009 16:14 |

| Great little pub tucked away in between Whitley Road and Whitley Bay Metro Station. For those in the know, this pub offers a great range of ales - including cask - and a friendly environment. The Landlord is a canny fella too. gnuts - 29 Jun 2005 21:43 |
