Not enough good can be said about Shearer's. The staff are excellent, always friendly, and quick to help. With a place that offers vegan food as an option, there is always a fear that ordering something like vegan chicken, you may get a real bird. This was never an issue across the multiple times over a few days that we ordered. Drinks are well priced, and food was cheaper than expected.
We also went to watch the Newcastle v Aston Villa match in the bar. The Newcastle fans were all pleasant. It wasn't hard to get through the crowd to get to the bar, order drinks, and make it back to the table on the opposite side of the room. The food on offer during match days is well priced and easy to get to.
We will definitely be going back for food, drinks, and to watch more matches if we can't get tickets to the match (or its an away game).
The best bar I’ve ever been to!
While I stayed in Newcastle we came to this bar 3 times!
Friday we went to visit the store and seen the bar was opening in 10min so we decided to pop in, and have a drink! We went in and I found they had my drink on tap ( Rekorderling Strawberry & Lime) my partner had a beer. Two came to £10 which was great. I noticed their weekday menu that they offered vegan chicken so we ended up staying for lunch! We got cauliflower bites and vegan chicken (5 pieces) and waffle which came with fries for £10 again bargain!
We came back Sat for the Newcastle game, they had a other menu, which we got tater tots and cheese pizza which both were incredible! Best Tater tots I’ve ever had too! The atmosphere for the game was great it wasn’t hostile or aggressive I felt safe as women, and I didn’t have a panic attack as I get anxious in loud crowds but it was totally fine! Staff are friendly and attentive always clearing tables and making small friendly conversations even although it’s busy!
Before we left on Sunday we came back for last time. Had apple juice to start with as didn’t feel like drinking at 10am think it was £5 for two full glasses! At 12 they served food which again had to get vegan chicken 😍 also got some tater tots as the day before they were so good had to get more! Had a drink or two before leaving for the train was a nice chill atmosphere and watched the Sundays games on the telly!
Overall; good veggie/vegan options, lovely friendly atmosphere, friendly attentive staff! And defo will be back the next time we are visiting Newcastle! Best place ever 🥰
Amazing, friendly, well trained staff. Quality of food and drink fantastic. Very good value for money, half the price i thought it would be. Waited in here and had lunch while our son did the tour, which he really loved. Only £22 for this years shirt in the next in the shop next to bar. Even the staff running the tours cound not be more helpful. I would highly recommend 👌
