The Millstone Hotel, Gosforth

visited for first time in a while. Beer is excellent. The pub sticks to selling beer at low to medium gravity ie nothing above 4.4 when I was there. Sells local beer as well as national brands ie Jarrow Brewery Rivet Catcher when I was there. Seems cheapest pub of the three in South Gosforth Still marketed more as a food joint doing pretty standard bar food. It looks more like a food place than real ale establishment. The owners might do better trying to market it with a bigger emphasis on the beer? Staff were fine with quick efficient service . Pub looked clean and tidy . Has a separate side bar where they show live sport when its on. This pub is under rated and I'll be returning. I hope it gives the trendier Bandling Villa a run for its money.

The Victory, South Gosforth

Beer still poor. In my humble opinion no real change despite new management. Still no food. Expensive compared to other pubs in the immediate area. Did not get in this years camra real ale guide. Its been 12 months since I was last in and I think best avoided for the future.
