A multi roomed, very much a locals pub tucked away along a back street near the Bell Tower. The main bar and counter are in the front right hand room, the other rooms were in darkness on my afternoon visit; it does look like a terraced house was converted to a pub many years back. A nice traditional bar, it has a splendid carpet, honey coloured woodwork and heavily nautical decor. Nice art nouveau windows here and there. The ceiling is covered in brass items used at sea, a lot of telescopes, flare guns, a compass and objects with mysterious uses. At lower levels there are model boats, navigation lights and photos and figurines of salty fisher folk. Two T-Bars provide a standard Scots and UK range while three pulls had two north east beers, Hadrian & Border and Firebrick, with a Cumbrian one from Bowness Bay. My first beer was a bit tired and low on condition but otherwise ok, my second pint (different beer) was flat and hazy: it’s GBG 2025 listed but maybe it’s style over substance on this and other previous showings? Uninterested staff didn’t help matters.

The Pilot is a backstreet local, a little away from the centre of town. I made a beeline for the front room with access to the bar (to the right-hand side of the central corridor). So, I didn't get chance to explore the other rooms. I assume this is the most popular drinking area, as it was fairly busy and meant I had to share a large table with what appeared to be a fellow beer/pub nut, who proceeded to list and talk about seemingly every pub in Northumberland! Whether there was even anybody else in the other rooms, I'll never know!

3 real ales were on - Rigg & Furrow Run Hop Run, Harviestoun Bitter & Twisted and Morland Old Speckled Hen. The real cider was Thistly Cross Whisky Cask.

Worth getting (stumbling in my case) out of town to.

Terraced backstreet pub, well-away from the others in town – if you’re crawling then make sure to take it in either first or make time for it be last. Pretty unspoilt inside (CAMRA listed - regional), two rooms off a tiled entrance corridor with an unlit rear room behind. The bar is in the right-hand room; nice and cosy with pub carpet, fabric settles, attractive lower bar, boxed wood walls, 70s fake beams (?) and a lot of hanging brassware. I visited twice; first time round the three pumps had beers from Loch Lomond, Great Eastern and Hadrian Farne Island (pump tired BNSS 2.5). A swift one before my train home a few days later found a much better (3.5) pint of Great Northeastern Golden Tap. I liked the pub but the cask turnover seems a bit sporadic. Beware that Scottish notes can end-up in your change here which isn’t much good if you’re just about to get your train back down south!
