The Shakespeare tavern is as close as youll come to a back in the day traditionally welcome retreat if you feel like a good afternoon evening. Opening at 3.45pm weekdays, saturday 1.30pm and sunday 12.00pm you are guaranteed firstly, a warm welcome and brilliant afternoon or evening. I cannot reiterate how friendly. Leanne and first bar lady Sarah run a great ship and will accommodate whatever your needs if possible. Pool is free on a Wednesday (all day) and there is a dart board too if you fancy. There is a terrace/garden and kids and parents alike can enjoy the sun with plenty of seating. We had an absolutely great weekend and can't wait to join the party again. Thank you, hosts and regulars for making this a warm, welcoming experience. 5*****
Very friendly atmosphere decent beer ie John smiths nice beer garden
Having just left this pub my Google app asks me "what did you think of The Shakespeare"... Ok, I thought...saying as you're asking....it's bloody awful. Yet another pub with a small number of foul mouthed young men occupying the bar area. Cheap...and no wonder...not one to take the parents to...once visited, instantly forgotten.
Susan Boyle often visits, wins my vote everytime. Also home of the legend Kenny Kay, It's tradition to offer him a rotten pineapple every Sunday evening.
Lovely friendly bar situated in a small village/town with the countryside a 5 minute walk away Along the River wansbeck with some lovely walks. The Shakespeare offers an array of of beets and wines and also weekend entertainment. Pool, darts also. Large beer garden out back.
