The Tyne Bar — Restaurant in Newcastle upon Tyne

This is a top bar. Their reputation is highly commendable for sure. It is situated right in the Ouseburn/Quayside border vibe. There are so many things going for it: good beers, outdoor seating aplenty, an outdoor undercover immensely popular live stage, pleasant staff plus it does top grub. During the summer months we have, it is the Mecca for sociable people seeking UV and when the time is right many a live band under the archway (not all great, but I'm a Muso for what it's worth). Any downers? Connectivity is one, but it's not far from Shields/Walker Road or the quayside yellow Q route. It also gets rammed.

Our server was absolutely lovely as well- hopefully we will...

Visited with my Boyfriend and Brother after visiting the Ouseburn festival (highly recommended) the pub was very busy with a big queue but all credit to the staff that they were quickly, efficiently very friendly and knowledgeable.

Views of the river which is wonderful. Would be happy to go in alone and such a good stop off if walking along the Quayside with friends. Would recommend and...
