  “I visited akenside a few days ago with my partner and I was served by none other than a woman named Caroline with below subpar customer service attitude and hostile/passive aggressive attitude after my parter asked for a peroni. I also heard her gossiping and talking down on me to the other staff who were present. I felt very dismissed and unwelcome and will NOT be returning unless something is fixed in regards to her piss poor attitude. I became very emotional upon leaving the venue and it’s shaken my mental health”

  “Not worth the money. Walked in at 7pm on a sunday the place had some people but not busy at all, the bar was also mostly empty too but we somehow waited 25 mins for our drinks, draught pepsi maxs!! This was a sign of things to come as when the food platter (21£) came and everything was cold, garlic bread burnt and nachos stale.”

  “I booked a bottomless brunch for 13 of us and I must say it’s been one of the best ones we’ve done for a while. We had the most efficient server, she was brilliant her name was Acacia. For being such a big group nothing was a bother, There wasn’t a time we didn’t have at least one full drink in front of us. She was brilliant. She really made the experience 10 Times better. The food was really lovely too all came out together and was very tasty and hot too. I would definitely recommend here especially for bottomless brunch.”

  “Stopped in for a lime and lemonade whilst my daughter took her theory test. Friendly staff. Lovely outdoor seating area (it helped that it was a warm sunny day). Very nice place.”

  “£5.75 for cloudy beer? Errr… no and then the barmaid didn’t have a clue that if you can’t see your fingers at the other side of the glass as you hold it, then it’s not worth drinking, After a painful wait whilst she decided ti serve an office crew I eventually got something else. I wouldn’t put it on my fish and chips so Sarsons vinegar have nothing to worry about.”

  “Only had drinks here. Pub with a view of the street. Sports on the tv and bright inside. Staff was kind. Food plates I saw passing looked good.”

  “Can't argue with the sign so stopped in for a beer. Friendly staff, cold beer, sport on the telly. It gets busy at night with a good atmosphere. Love the "dog of the week" idea too”

  “It is fantastic to see the pub and team getting right behind NUFC for their trip to Wembley for the Cup Final. I am sure other businesses will be following their lead very soon. 👏👏”

  “This might sound like a paid review but it isn't. We found this pub on a rainy April afternoon after walking for ages looking for a dog friendly establishment. They welcomed the 10 of us with open arms. It was a Wednesday afternoon so it wasn't to busy. Our kids were delighted with the choices they had after one of the staff went to chat to the chef about what they could have. From ordering to having food in front of us room about 20 minutes. Perfect size portions and a fantastic service. The staff went out of the way to show how dog friendly they were, with drinks and treats for both of them. If I had one complaint and its not really a complaint is that the slot machines take away a little of the look to the place. Hope to get back again 1 day and if i could give 6 stars i would. Thank you all.”
