After a visit to the Schooner in Gateshead (excellent pub that I have requested to be added), I ventured to Felling on Friday evening with some trepidation, having heard that it was somewhat of a rough area. First impressions seemed to back up the rumours. But the Old Fox and the Wheat Sheaf are just a few yards away from each other on a side street and are both great pubs. For me, the Old Fox was the better of the two. It has an open-plan bar with plenty of tables and a worn feel. But the ale selection far surpassed my expectation - Rat The Rat of Khan, Titanic Chocolate & Vanilla Stout, Tiny Rebel Juicy & Dark Star Hophead. Despite it being quiet, the barman was pulling through a fifth beer. My stout was in good form. I'm fairly the Old Fox has improved significantly since the last review on here. blue_scrumpy - 31 Jul 2017 19:06 |
This pub should have been pulled down with the rest of the clearance that has been going on around here, scruffy little hole and my pint of Camerons Strongarm, was total viniger. looks like a change of manager. what happend to the last manager, was a great pint then. msh35 - 20 Jun 2011 19:47 |
Great little pub tucked away in the back-streets of Felling, but close to the Metro station. Landlord is a real ale enthusiast so you'll always be guaranteed a good pint. zipdiskdude - 3 Dec 2009 12:51 |
