Myself and my friend are two young professionals who were eager for a weekend stay in Newcastle- a city we had not yet ventured to before. We browsed air b&b and found an inviting advertisement regarding a central apartment above the Dun Cow. Upon arrival we were greeted with a gloriously decorated apartment with every facility I could have hoped for - something I wouldn’t have expected for such a highly affordable apartment. We had a great evening and tonight have ventured down to the Dun Cow pub- not only did we receive great service from the staff including Gary the manager, but we also enjoyed a delightful meal. The staff went above and beyond to ensure our needs were satisfied. Would highly recommend- wonderful weekend stay!
Squirrelled away behind Clayton Street this place could be easily missed - but you shouldn't if you can help it. I got blown in out of the cold North wind and received the warmest of welcomes from both manager and chef alike. The cozy atmosphere matched the welcome - recently refurbished, there are snug booths, a restaurant area and a conservatory which leads out onto a fairy-lit beer garden. The food was delicious - mussels in a creamy sauce, freshly baked toasted bread and home cooked peppered fries - and a HUGE winter carb-laden portion it was too. This place is one of those hidden gems which someone else normally tells me about but this time I am gifting to you. You're welcome. :-)
We just moved to the area and we’ve been in here quite a few times already! We’ve also brought friends & family. Quality food, generous portions, vegetarian options that are delicious and I think they are adding more shortly. I also requested vegan options. The manager and staff are really very lovely and attentive. It’s in a cute location right next to Brandling Park and their vegetarian Nut Roast dinner on Sundays is great. Atmosphere is friendly, if you have a dog they have a section for people with dogs but I never see it over run with them. It’s a large place and you can quite happily sit without being around them. It’s all round a good pub offering great food and service.
Just returned from Mother's Day lunch, great food,great service, would not hesitate to recommend this pub, will certainly be back.
Me and my boyfriend have just came back home from an amazing meal at the dun cow, we were the first to try out the new menu and were more than impressed. The food was absolutely outstanding. We ordered a sharing board and every piece of steak was cooked perfectly. The service was lovely too, very friendly, approachable staff, we'll definitely be returning here! ��
This pub is great, it serves amazing food and drinks. The staff are all really friendly and the acoustic nights provide a great atmosphere. Looking forward to coming back and would definitely recommend to anyone
What a hidden gem, just behind Clayton road jesmond, friendly staff, very good food and atomosphere.
Beautiful cosy place and food to die for 👌🏼
Fantastic pub food a very reasonable prices. Beer well kept and plenty of choice. Staff extremely helpful without being overly so. Open mic session on Sunday night was unexpected but really good, free entertainment. What's not to like?
Sunday lunch was great! Recommend getting the pork but everything comes with 2 Yorkshire’s, so you’re laughing either way.
Good range of beers, great service and the pub has been done to be a lot more comfortable than it was before these guys got their hands on it.
Nice and friendly place and perfect food! Staffs are very friendly!
Thanks the Halloween � Sunday dinner and face painting,my girls loved it!
We will be going next time as well!
Thanks
Everything a local pub should be, friendly staff, lovely decor and fab homemade food. Will definitely be returning
Sunday lunch was lovely very tasty plenty of meat and roast potatoes were the best def the best Sunday lunch around will be back next week.
Delicious Father's Day traditional Sunday Roast. It was my first ever English roast with all the trimmings - I couldn't decide on what meat to get so settled on the trio of meat. And of course added dessert too - a mouthwatering sticky toffee pudding with ice-cream. All washed down with a baby pint of Dun Cow's own ale.
Such a great meal and fabulous family atmosphere.
Food was great, service was friendly, and it fulfilled my bucket list item of a proper English roast.
A nice looking bar! I fired down two turbo beers on an early Saturday lunchtime whilst passing by. This is not a place I'll hit regularly because it's some way off my beaten path. However, the visit was absolutely fine. There's a good (heated) beer garden if it's mild enough, a pool table and conservatory out the back plus quite decent seating areas inside.
The best Sunday lunch ever.
Opted for the prawn cocktail started and turkey with all the trimmings for a festive main. Staff were welcoming and friendly and the food was clearly fresh and so well put together. The place was surprisingly quiet but it is out of the way (free parking) indoor and outdoor seating and topped with a cosy yet modern interior. Hoped to have room for desert but was defeated by the size of the main. Maybe next time. Cheap for food and drinks and they have an amazing selection of both spirits (all the gins 😍) and beer! We will be back soon and would recommend to check this lovely place out x
Great local pub. Fine selection of beers and cocktails. Comfortable seats, a pool table and lots of outside seating for warm days. I ordered a Peroni which was perfect. Two of my daughters had a cocktail which are two for £10. Highly recommended.
Great venue , lots of free parking and ideal off the beaten track in central Jesmond, one to definitely go too for Sunday lunch - the food is tasty, plentiful and a good price!
But unable to set up a tab or pay at the end seems strange, as basically tips are never normally given upfront! And if dine & dash is a problem hold a card behind the bar till the meal is done!
Great food. Excellent choice of beers, wines and spirits.
Sunday lunch is really, really good. Dogs are as welcome as customers.
The staff are friendly, professional and helpful.
Nice ambiance to eat, drink or just while away an enjoyable hour or two.
Central. Just off Brandling park.
Why wait? Go there and have fun.
Really nice pub. Family Sunday lunch out & everything we had was very nice. Beef was tender as you like. Veg was really tasty. Which included sweet potato mash. Very nice! Monument ale from tyne bank brewery very good. 5 star scran!
Little hidden gem of a pub in Jesmond! It was my first time visiting here and will definitely be back, the food was delicious (we had cod goujon sandwich and fillet steak), and service was really prompt. Free car park was a bonus for the location, and the pub itself was really lovely!
This pub was quite a surprise hidden away in Jesmond. Just a short walk from Newcastle Civic Centre and Exhibition Park. Had nice wine selection and good food. Outdoor seating area too.
Had a delicious dinner for mothers day today. Beef cooked to perfection and the best roasties and home made yorkshire ever! Oh ....and the sticky toffee pud was to die for. Lovely staff, lovely place, lovely everything!
Fabulous renovated pub in the heart of Jesmond. Great range of beers. Food was delicious and staff were very helpful and friendly. Family friendly too!! Highly recommend this great pub.
Nice people and place. Good prices too, especially with the student discount. Haven't tried the food yet but will most likely get the fifth star.
Great atmosphere, really nice staff, the food was excellent. Not the easiest to find, but really is worth finding. Highly recommended. We will definitely be back.
Nice pub, good location in central Jesmond. Food is excellent, nice range of beers, plenty of free parking. Bit of a no brainer actually!!
Lovely! Good atmosphere, dog friendly, and reasonable drinks (for Jesmond ofc). Food looked yummy too!
Absolutely gorgeous Sunday lunch and very dog friendly! Staff were fantastic couldn’t fault a single thing 😋
Good pub, good prices, especially for Jesmond which is a welcome change, will be back. Nice outdoor area for when summer comes
Lovely place, friendly staff and good food. Dogs are welcome too which is great
nice pub a little pricy but a very good selection of beers largers and ales
