With the Broad Chare (a few doors up) closed on our Tuesday evening visit, we made our last stop before heading up to the football ground, the Head of Steam.

It seems like the last reviewer was very unlucky. There were 5 real ales on this time - Two By Two Raspberry Stout & Amarillo Ekuanot, Cameron's Road Crew, Tyne Bank Castle Gold & Tiny Rebel Cwtch. They no longer stock a real cider.

Both of the Two by Two beers were very nice indeed. It's a comfortable, but modern place with plenty of seating. CAMRA discounts are offered.

Whenever in Newcastle we always call in here and always find it OK,but was a bit disappointed on our recent visit. There were 8 hand pumps 3 had no clips on and the other 5 were all turned round,so asked for a pint of a Spanish lager and a Martini Rosso for Mrs Wild Rover,both of which they had none of.Finshed up with 2 halves of foreign lager that I had never heard of before.

a relaxed sort of place, like the others in this group it’s a decent place for a decent pint. It has a million times more charm than most pub chains. Seven ales on covering a good range of styles. Please all food menus with standard gastropub fare. Long haired barman called me ‘dude’ as he served up my pint, I think he was in charge of the playlist too. Nirvana-ahoy! From my seat I could see both the mural of the Tyne and the Tyne itself, which was nice.
