About The Engine Inn

The Engine Inn is a pub and British restaurant on Walbottle in Newcastle Upon Tyne, serving British cooking in a dining area that also hosts family occasions. The room is used for wakes and family gatherings, which makes it a practical choice for groups marking an occasion together. Sunday lunch is a regular fixture for local visitors. A screen in the dining area shows football, so a match can run alongside a meal. Dogs are welcome, which suits regulars who bring a pet along.

Customer Review Summary

Sunday lunch is the main draw, with regulars calling the food and service outstanding and one reviewer naming it the best pub food locally. Others describe attentive staff and a brilliant host, and one family praised the care shown at a wake. One Sunday dinner went wrong: dessert menus were thrown on the table, nobody returned, and the vanilla creme brulee turned out chocolate and cherry.

  • Hugh McCormack
    “We held the wake for my late husband, I cannot praise the staff enough for the care and service they provided during such a difficult time. They made us and all our guests feel very welcome, and everything was handled with kindness and professionalism. The food was lovely, the service was excellent, and the room was a good size with a warm and pleasant atmosphere. Thank you to everyone at The Engine Inn for helping to make a difficult day that little bit easier. Your efforts and kindness were very much appreciated, and I would highly recommend you to anyone looking for a venue for a family gathering.”
