Right on the station level crossing, friendly, traditional 2 roomed pub. Great beer choice served in excellent condition.

This place seems to be something of an institution in this part of the world. I completely failed to realise that there were two rooms as I walked in to see a row of 12 hand pumps so went no further. The room I entered was wide with a stone flagged floor.
Beers available were mainly local with more than one from Sonnet 43, Hadrian and Fyne. I tried the Sonnet 43 Aurora(£3.20) and the North Yorkshire White Lady (£3.30) both of which were excellent.
This is a superb pub where you can while away the time watching all the trains you're missing go sailing past.

Only take 20 mins by train from Newcastle Central, trains running every hour. You will see the pub as you come out the station, so no searching round needed. This two room pub has 15 ever changing handpulls all year round and 3 ciders. Friendly staff and chatty regulars. I went for the High House Farm Sundancer and Lizzie Dimples and also Summer Wine Brewery Red Hop. Will call again.
