Bridge Hotel, Newcastle Central, Newcastle Upon Tyne

Excellent city centre pub with up to 10 real ales.

Superb pub set high up next to the bridge. ALways make a visit here when in Newcastle. I am sure I have seen them serving Sunday lunches in here.

Superb historic beer house, by end of High Level Bridge. Lots of woodwork, stained glass etc, but the range of 10 or so handpumps (plus similar number of keg taps) is most impressive. Has live music some nights.

Great looking pub, owned by the Fitzgerald chain, that still has the feel of a multi roomer despite having been opened out. One of my regular stop off points on the way down to the Crown Posada. Has a good range of real ales usually locally sourced with the odd long distance traveller and they're all well kept. Can get pretty busy at weekends but I've not had much of a problem getting served in here. The food menu is very limited, with only rolls available when we called in a couple of weeks ago. We still call in here every time we're in Newcastle, it's a very good pub.
