The Sportsman - North Tyneside

I had a lovely Sunday dinner at this restaurant. The staff was friendly and nice. I'm glad I only ordered a small meal as it turned out to be very filling.

Sat down and soon after someone took our drinks order.When they were brought we were told ‘the kitchen is closed today.’You’d think we’d be told this before we spent £6.30 on 2 diet cokes.We left quite annoyed.I’d checked online prior to visiting and it said the kitchen is closed on Mondays!

This pub in Preston Village is a hidden gem. We have gone for Sunday lunch and lunch menu a few times, and we have never been disappointed. The food is always freshly cooked and delicious. The management and staff are all very friendly and welcoming.

Midweek meals and Sunday lunch are the best we have had in a longtime, worth every penny. Staff service excellent. Dog friendly also which is a bonus

I was blown away by this pub's unexpected excellence. The food exceeded all expectations and was cooked perfectly. I have no faults to report and would give this place a 5-star review without hesitation.
