“There are three things you need to offer your customers: Great Service, Great Food, and a Great Atmosphere”, Kevin Adams, the Owner says, and customers agree.

Kevin and the team have been building a loyal customer base since opening the doors in 2009. Located in a century home from the 1840’s, the building was moved to its current location in the 1940’s, and revamped as a commercial property in the early 2000’s.

Many years of plain old hard work have resulted in just the right mix of a Neighbourhood Pub and a Local Eatery; a place to gather and celebrate for special occasions or to meet up for a drink. Our free Wifi makes this a convenient place for a working lunch. People often return to enjoy Daily & Weekly Menu Specials and Live Music on some weekend evenings, but come early as the spaces fill up quickly, so we accept reservations in advance. The patio is a hotspot in the summer for impromptu parties, and perfect as a pleasant stop for cyclists and motorcyclists travelling through the area. We can accommodate your group for Special Occasions as a private event, and offer customized catering in the Durham and Northumberland Regions.

What makes the Old Newcastle House Taps & Grill so special to visitors? We’re often called ‘Newcastle’s Best Kept Secret’ for good reason! Come out and see why, for yourself!

Hear what our Customers Say about us:

‘We have NEVER had a bad meal at the Old Newcastle House.  Their menu has something for everyone, from eclectic and creative, to classic pub grub.  Portions are generous and the food is always tasty.  The staff are extremely friendly and go out of their way to accommodate diners.  I especially appreciate all of the extra effort ONH has made to adjust to new covid protocols including expanded patio, heaters and now tents.  They’re a great place to go for reliably tasty food with a smile! :)’
