Beehive - Newcastle upon Tyne

Out on Easter Saturday in fine weather and we were recommended the Beehive and they were not wrong plenty of easy parking, loads of people/ Families enjoying some wonderful food great service and fine weather. The menu had enough variety for everyone the service was excellent the staff knowledgeable of there wines was great. If you are ever in the area I can not recommend it highly enough.

My twin brother Stephen and I were pub hopping around this part of town when we decided to drop into The Beehive Pub and what a wonderful back street pub this is . I love the look of this pub ,the interior is fab ,wonderful pubby decor and furnishings, tv's to enjoy the sport, a solid wood serving bar dominates the main room and there's plenty of seating options spread throughout this pub, its just one really great pub to unwind in. My twin brother Stephen and I were here on a Monday afternoon, pub was packed with a great atmosphere, we got bottles of Becks beer ,these were served in excellent condition, we luckily managed to get a table were we just kicked back, chilled out and soaked up the great vibe in this busy and popular pub while sipping our beers. I really enjoy Becks beer ,this is a fantastic German beer I really enjoy, been on holiday to Bremen a couple of times were this beer is brewed so I've developed a real taste for this beer . It's a light, hoppy and unpretentious lager style beer bursting with taste, very easy to drink on a hot afternoon. We really enjoyed our beers in here before we moved on and for a first time visit to The Beehive Pub we were totally impressed. The Beehive Pub is easy to locate along High Bridge. Opening hours are; Monday to Sunday, 9am till 11pm. A great pub,most definitely well worth checking out if you're in the area.

Fantastic food but....... The food was great. The steak pie was probably the best I’ve ever tasted. The setting is lovely. The service was great. The tables were well spaced. Most of the staff were wearing masks and or visors But...... when we had driven past an illuminated mobile advertising trailer on the way there telling us we were in a coronavirus hot spot then surely it would be best for everyone that ALL THE STAFF wore masks and visors especially when serving at the tables!!!

Just been for lunch with a friend. Absolutely NO social distancing going on with the staff or other diners squeezing past our table. NO masks/visors or protective equipment worn by staff, NO track trace details taken either. There was hand gel at the door our food was delicious but won't be going back anytime soon.

The food is always terrific and good value. It's cosy and friendly, but extremely popular, so often very busy. The service is good, but there can be quite a long wait for food to arrive. Plenty of car parking.
