ROB Camra left this review about The Centurion Bar
Once upon a time this was the 1st class lounge for the station. But it fell into disuse and then became the local HQ and cells for the British Transport Police. During it's time with the BTP all the tiling, murals and columns were painted over. Luckily it's now all been restored to it's former glory and is probably the best station bar around. 5 handpumps usually selling beers from Hadrian & Border, Jarrow and Wylam along with the occasional one from further afield. Apart from the fantastic interior they also have occasional live bands AND they still have a pinball machine (Addams Family). I always call in here when I'm in Newcastle. I took Ms CAMRA in for the first time last weekend and she loved it. She says the red wine's OK as well.
