The Rising Sun Pub and Kitchen in Gateshead

I was the dj at the fun day garden party, food is good, nice staff & customers

Not well managed. Closes before closing time so you never know if they're open, and another day we came for Sunday roast around 2pm and they'd ran out of food.

Staff were lovely and very welcoming

Went in not knowing what to expect we were asked for my name and phone number found a table where we sat all night. We had table service, the staff were friendly and we never had to wait long for our drinks,we had a lovely evening with friends.

Had a lovely meal here. We were a party of 25 people and everyone enjoyed their meal. We were all served promptly and all the food was hot and delicious. The staff were very helpful and friendly . I would recommend this place anytime.

This pub has recently been taken over and completely refurbished and I'm not talking about a cats lick, I'm talking about everything including the toilets and all the furniture. The food is great, really good value, there are bands on every week, the beer is good and the staff are really friendly

I used to live right opposite this pub and restaurant so it was certainly convenient!However, it was often really cold in there. Furniture was quite lived-in but maybe that has improved now.Food was always decent.Drinks were often unavailable. It seemed like the heating and range of alcohol was never on at the same time.Staff friendly but high turnover.Not much atmosphere but there are other places close by, perhaps taking more business.

The appearance of the bar was very nice but staff were not. It took 4 times to order food as waitress did not know meals were out of stock. While waiting for the missing meals to be sorted the remainder obviously Sat on gantry as the blue steak could have chocked a donkey. At no point were we told of the wait for food. This would have prevented the anticipation of when food would eventually turn up (1 hour 20mins) not an apology for the delay or missing food. Won't be going again

What a lovely pub, excellent barman who was on duty - very friendly, attentive & great customer service. The pub itself is very clean, the refurb job is top notch, the menu had a fab choices & huge portoins when the food arrived. The outdoor garden space is clean, well laid out & very functionable & the whole plac ejust has a geneeral great friendly atmosphere - Well Done!! for catering for Local People In a Local Pub!!

Very nice evening. I had mushroom spup with warm bread and my friend had piri piri chicken, she thoroughly enjoyed it and the food was nicely presented. We finished our meal with a floral tea which was really refreshing. Very pleasant young man served us and atmosphere was lovely. Will definitely visit again.
