***BEST NEWCOMER 2013***
My first Secret Diner review, back in 2011, was the newly-opened Town Wall pub.
I’m afraid I was underwhelmed by both food and service, but I liked the exciting, modern conversion of an historic building. It had something that many Newcastle venues lack – style.
This week the owners, Dave Stone and Rob Cameron, unveiled their second converted pub-cum-eatery, directly underneath the Tyne Bridge. It’s called The Bridge Tavern (although its old Newcastle Arms sign is still carved in the stone outside). I predict it will become a huge success.
