A Quest to check out the real ale pubs in my neck of the woods.(Newcastle, Gateshead, Tyne and Wear, Northumberland, Durham) It's a tough job but somebody's got to do it
Friday 23 July 2010

The Quaker House exterior doesn't exactly invite you in. Look at our photo. And its up a narrow alley! Nevertheless, in we went and I must say the greetings from the guv'nor and the barman were 1st class. So was the beer. Eight on tap! The place was a real drinkers paradise.
Rock music a speciality with umpteen bands billed to appear.
The Quaker House was CAMRA's Town Pub of the Year 2009-2010.
Real ales from Woodfords, Summer Wine Brewery, Rugby Brewery, Shipyard Brewery, Consett's Cast Iron and Brakspears Hooray Henry!
A highly enjoyable visit to a good real ale house.
