Newcast le Upon Tyne
Quayside, NE1 3DQ

The Broad Chare bills itself as
a proper pub specialising in
proper food and proper beer.
That being the case, you should
be in for a proper treat upon
crossing the threshold of the
bustling Newcastle boozer. It’s a
pub that’s big on warmth, low on
fuss: stripped wood floors, high
bar stools, painted brickwork
and comfy leather banquettes
are the decor du jour. Sup your
pint beside the polished-oak
bar or tuck yourself away in the
Snug behind the frosted glass
partition. In here, you can hear
yourself talk, concentrate on the
crossword or nod off quietly in
the corner. Upstairs in the Dining
Room, it’s all reassuringly simple
with solid wood tables, sturdy
schoolroom chairs and shiny
brass coat-hooks. The Broad
Chare’s menus offer honest,
home-cooked food just like pubs
used to serve: tasty, satisfying
and proudly British. You can
enjoy a proper sit-down-at-the-
table meal or, if you’re more
in the mood for grazing while
nursing your pint or are pushed
for time, try the Bar Snacks
menu. These are bar snacks
with attitude: generous, full of
flavour, deliberately tempting –
hand-raised pork pies, Scotch
eggs, cauliflower fritters – they’re
almost a meal in themselves. Eat
upstairs or down, on your own or
with friends, one course or four.
It’s your pub and your call.
