Best Restaurants with Great Beer in Newcastle

The food, service and ambience were fine. Being a John Howie restaurant, we weren’t surprised by the high prices. Two cocktails, two starters, two steaks with no sides, and two glasses of wine were almost $300. We were surprised, however, at the 20% service charge on the bill that goes entirely to John Howie. Their explanation was that they pay their staff well and give them benefits. There was a typical place for a tip on the check. Had we added a typical 20% tip, we would have paid over $100 in add-ons plus $35 tax which included tax on the service charge. This certainly put a damper on our enthusiasm for this restaurant. $400+ for the above listed food is certainly not worth it.

Nailed it in all areas. Great selections, food, service, value. Definitely recommend.

Loved the Wee Pie sampler - delicious Shepherds Pie, Steak and Mushroom pie, Leek and Potato pie and Chicken Pot pie! Yum - where else can you get that! Comfort food par excellence. Great service and reasonable prices.

Amazing service, very attentive staff. The food was excellent, pretzel and sauces outstanding.

The food was delicious!!! I had the Lemon shrimp Gnocchi, my grandson had a small pizza and my guy had a Italian Grinder and he said it was delicious... The pizza was delicious as well... And our server and other waitstaff were awesome!!! We will come again and again... Oh and we had Garlic knots and they were delicious also!!😋😋😋
