What travellers are saying
- r0z53Newcastle upon Tyne, UK12 contributionsI booked the flight experience for my partner as a Christmas Present. Totally worth it, a great experience which he really enjoyed. Thanks to Jarvis who made us all feel welcome and explained everything from start to finish. Would definitely recommend.Written 17 March 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Aaron O'Roarty3 contributionsThis is truly a fantastic experience and highly recommended for any aviation fans.
The sims are state of the art and so immersive, feels like you are in the real aircraft.
Even sat in the mock up cabin with views out of the windows is an experience in itself.
Neil and Amanda are such fantastic instructors with a vast amount of knowledge and experience. Their friendly approach and instructional techniques are top class.
Highly recommend anyone giving this a go you will not regret it!! Thank you and can't wait for the next session!Written 12 March 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

We have done a number of escape rooms, and this was one of the best we have done. The theme, puzzles and game master were all perfectWritten 17 March 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Bruce H2 contributionsVery friendly staff (especially the security man outside the gate and the lady scanning tickets on the turnstile), well laid out and excellent facilities. Plenty of space to shelter from the inclement north east weather between races. Also appreciate how easy it is to get out at the end of racing (as a regular at most courses in the north and southern Scotland I wish this was always the case!). However I have one major gripe, a muddy potholed field isn’t really acceptable for blue badge parking in 2024. My second gripe is I never seem to get many winners here but that one’s outside of the racecourse’s control!Written 17 February 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- masle4koNewcastle upon Tyne, UK2 contributionsI and my boyfriend had a great time. Everything went very smoothly, even though we were a bit late. Girl on reception was very friendly and helpful. Conor, our instructor, was attentive, friendly and informative. We played Edarts as well, which was great fun and not expensive. We had a fun evening and definitely recommend it to anyone.Written 10 March 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

We were then given an interesting and very happy introductory safety/technique talk by Lewis. We were then left to throw...
...we initially thought it'd be dead easy, but sharp realised ideas much more difficult than we anticipated.
We thoroughly enjoyed our time, we started a competition to see which of us could score the most. Lewis kept popping along to see how we were getting on and helping us with our techniques. He showed us some extra throws to try.
We all (40's, 50's & 60's) had a fab time, one of our party commented that in our throwing time everything else left his brain...it was 'a really mindful' activity.
I'd definitely recommend this to absolutely everyone, a really super activity that's both physical and mentally technical.Written 16 March 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Run by the community for the community, a fabulously restored and versatile building and one of Newcastle’s treasures showing interesting movies and hosting events in convivial surrounds. Everyone should support rare independents like this. Service with a sincere smile.Written 11 February 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- JH2711Newcastle upon Tyne, UK89 contributionsI occasionally pop in here when in town for lunch, and it is a really nice place to lose money!
There are plenty of tables to try your luck, as well as lots of machines with various games. I admit to being bewildered by the bandits - they're not like the old seaside machines, that's for sure! - but I do love a little flutter on the roulette machines. The seats are comfy, there's room for your drink from the well-stocked bar, and the atmosphere is relaxed enough that you don't feel pressured into playing. The staff I have encountered have all been really pleasant, and it's a fun place to drop in.Written 23 August 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The sensory room and role play are really good too.

- Steve Kerr1 contributionI'm not sure where to start! We hired the function room at Northern for our wedding reception, and we could not have been more impressed with everything the staff did to make it such a great evening. I wish I could give more than five stars so I'll try to make up for it by breaking it down:
Communication: The manager, David, is a busy man - but you wouldn't know it by how quickly and efficiently he communicated with us to sort everything out. Food, decor, timings, even down to when prosecco and buffets (more to follow) would be served. Clockwork, thanks to him, and all the hard work he and his excellent staff put in.
Staff: Not just David but all of the staff in the kitchen and behind the bar were excellent. Good fun, friendly, hard-working - again, just made everything so easy for us.
Food: WOW. There's a load of food options for the buffet. David put on a custom spread for us and I'd say at some point pretty much every single guest complimented the quality of the buffet. Way, way above and beyond what we were looking for, and absolutely tons of it.
Venue: We had people coming from all over Newcastle and beyond, and a venue right next to the A1 made it a lot easier for people - particularly people who needed to get taxis home! The room itself had its own staffed bar, was decked out with everything we needed, and opened out next to the pitch which was a really nice backdrop. Very nicely set out room with tables for guests, a dancefloor, and tables for gifts etc. There's also the regular bar upstairs with a terrace, so if you get there early you can have a drink and won't feel like a billy-no-mates.
More than anything else this is a massive thank you to David and all of the staff! I cannot recommend Northern highly enough for functions.Written 10 July 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
