My husband and I visited the exchange on Sunday for the 1st time ever.
We were pleasantly surprised at how tucked away this lovely little place was.The match was on and atmosphere was chilled and relaxing.
We were looked after so well by the barman, I'm not sure if he was the manager or not but he was very professional and genuinely friendly and reminded us of Gomez Adams from Adams family ( in the nicest way possible) along with the chef (who actually looks like a young Mel Gibson)... Chefs food was fabulous, there was too much left we brought it home. You must try the pies, there homemade by the chef, absolutely lush!
They were the best staff members weve ever met in Newcastle bars or restaurants, their hospitality was amazing and they actually made are visit worth while.
We would definitely go back. The Japanese lager is nice but the IPA was the best. Fishbowl wasn't too bad either.
Highly recommend.
