We held our wedding party recently at The Central. From start to finish Gavin, Scott and all the staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. Nothing was too much of a hassle for them and what it cost us was excellent value for money (a similar pub venue in Newcastle wanted to charge us considerably more!).
I'd certainly recommend the pub if anyone wants to have a wedding party, or any other party for that matter, in an informal setting. We used the venue on the middle floor, for a band and DJ, and the top floor with roof terrace for drinks and food. The sun was shining all afternoon so the roof terrace was perfect (one thing the venue won't be able to guarantee is good weather though!).
And if you have no intention of using The Central for a party, it's just a great boozer with nice beers and good food.
Proper bar, proper atmosphere serving a canny selection of beers. The roof terrace on a sunny day is a great way to drink beer and while away a bit time and even watch a few trains go past.
Beautiful building, great beer, friendly staff, amazing food and fantastic atmosphere. An absolute gem and a must for any ale drinker.
