It doesnt open all day, Sundays are more like the old traditional hours so be prepared for a change of plan when you get there. Lovely to sit outside in the summer and the inside is still a genuine pub. I had Wylam Gold Tankard which was spot on and a packet of out of date crisps (free) they were nice too. It's a lovely pub and more people should go. Comments about the bridge are true. It's built for Austin 7s. I mangled my alloys on my Jaaaaag. I now use Wylam Bridge instead. The road between Stocksfield and Bywell Bridge further up stream at Bywell is reopened (August 2013) so that's an option too. Bykerlad - 16 Dec 2013 13:23 |
I'm not sure I'd like to visit this pub too often, given how narrow the bridge across the river is. There's barely room to fit a car on. Nevertheless this is a friendly local in a pretty location overlooking the river. Beers on were Wylam Admiral Lord Collingwood Ale & Gold Tankard, Timothy Taylor Landlord, Tetleys Cask & Mobberley Barn Buster. The latter was advertised as £2 per pint. But £1.43 for a half wasn't quite as good value. The pub was fairly quiet on an early Saturday evening, unlike our next stop - the nearby Black Bull in Wylam, which was packed. The Black Bull is not listed on here. blue_scrumpy - 27 May 2013 11:52 |
I haven't been for 15 years and still pine for the day I'll go back... Happy memories ... Is it still owned by James Outterside? BobBoiston - 17 Apr 2008 18:10 |
A good local bar but not in the way LisaHas found it. Usually three real ales and the Cumberland Ale is the best kept I have had anywhere (and there have been a few!)A good place to take a crossword to on a Sunday lunchtime to recover from the night before. Apostar - 29 Jun 2007 14:18 |
My wife I had a wonderful time there, room was clean and tidy, staff were very friendly and the breakfast was to die for, loved it so much going back in August keithmaureen - 26 Mar 2007 15:34 |
