The Ridley Arms, Stannington

Went back with guests and was good but nothing overly special. Food was ok, if a bit pricey, staff were friendly and helpful. I'd go back for sure, but it's a bit out of the way for me.

The Twin Farms, Kenton Bank Foot

A truly excellent pub. Food is wonderful, the place has lots of different areas of seating to choose from, including some very comfy high-back chairs. Service is quick, and staff are friendly and polite. A nice selection of beers and a relaxed atmosphere. I now go regularly for meals and bring guests who always leave with positive things to say about the pub. I envy the other patrons there who are kicking back with a pint after work (my 19mth old won't let me sit back and relax, that's for sure!). Which reminds me, the baby changing facilities are the cleanest I have ever seen! Spotless and well stocked. Tt's just around the corner from Bank Foot Metro station, so no worries about driving home (although ample parking is provided). If you're in the area, or passing by, I'd recommend it for sure.

Duke Of Wellington, Gosforth

Just noticed this pub is now called The Flaming Grill. Not sure if it's a name-change or under new management, but will let you know more when I next venture in.
