[@MacStoker]

cheers Eddie and Helen (and owner Paul) for that.... awesome to hear they deliver... supporting local small business's is something we should all do.

[@TynesideLife]

👊🏻👍🏻

[@jarrajohn84]

Try ‘The Red Lion’ in Boldon 👌🏻. Unbelievable dinners. Small pub but extremely busy and very nice pub.

[@donnaabbott3858]

Mill Tavern and Cock Crow do lovely Sunday dinners and the dogs welcome after a nice walk around Wardley and the swan lakes

[@YogicBarrister]

Good stuff... As a Geordie in London, it's nostalgic and interesting to see your videos. Thanks mate and best wishes

[@thejarrageordie]

400 hundred years old, wow must hold some fantastic stories , Food looks great, Walk past the schooner lots of time's never been in, That'll change, certainly be given that dinner ago, Thankyou Eddy and Helen, Always clear your lasses plate 👍

Wow great story here Eddie ! I remember The Ship well as in one of my first visits to Newcastle my cousins used to take me to the Ship and that’s where I learnt all the table soccer tricks hahahaha ! We used to walk down there and stagger home lol ! Great memories

Looks absolutely delicious

[@whatyeonaboot]

Great pub. I remember during the covid days when every gig my wife had booked for my birthday were called off. Heard a local dude Russ Tippins was playing. 28th December, walked half cut from the Haymarket in Newcastle, was a massive hike after a few (definitely taxi next time) but it was worth it. Lovely warm reception and the night was amazing

[@teamboy19]

Love the Schooner when going to the heed games , never had food yet looks lush .

[@geoffreycodling8071]

I remember the floating restaurant on the Tyne in the 70s I would guess, located straight down from where the Schooner pub is today. The name of this boat/restaurant I believe to be was the Northumbrian.

[@purleybelter7344]

Looking smart Eddie lad the pair of ya . Good on you. love the support of the local area 👍🏻

The nosebag at the Schooner is mint. Had many a Sunday lunch there.

[@mike4b]

£14 for a full on roast lamb dinner is excellent value! Here in York, you could easily add an extra £4/5 on top of that.

[@davidhodgson3901]

The pub’s nickname was The Bunk. Not sure why. We used to pop in for a pint when we were apprentices around the corner at NEI Nuclear Systems, in the early 80s. Happy days. Still a great pub.

[@ianjames9166]

It looks like my kind of place and you are both making me very homesick right now...in a good way. Great video guys 🙂

Many of the workers would have gone in at Dinner Time too to slake their thirst. Then back for afternoon stint. Cracking Pub. Well Done

You are such a versatile fella Eddie! Delightful alternative to the footy. Mind you don't choke on any grub in injury time tho' lol

[@LeeStewart]

God I haven’t been to the Schooner since 2022. I’d go for a few bevvies after playing football near the stadium. I’ve past it a few times but I remember walking past it as a kid during the boat races in the 1990’s.

[@peterstewart3080]

Schooner is great, they have a good choice of beers and lagers and the food is pretty good. The Tanners arms in Byker though, is still the best Sunday lunch I’ve had. May want to try there Eddie, if you haven’t already. You’ve got to book though as it gets really busy.

[@TynesideLife]

Thanks for the recommendation 👍🏻

[@gordy3714]

Try the Bowes Incline or the Engine Room at eighton banks the Waggon and The Ship are just along from that.

[@dickeyboyenglishnotbritish2462]

Hi Eddie thanks for that video, I must check that pub out when I arrive in Newcastle next month. If you and your lass are in south Tyneside I recommend you check out Dougies Tavern at Blackett St, Hebburn NE31 1ST. These can do a nice Sunday Dinner. All the best. :D

[@TynesideLife]

I used sing on karaoke nights in there on a Wednesday night back in the day 😃

[@christopherkerrigan9225]

[@Stephenuk-zc3xo]

[@stewartfraser2740]

Also try the Go NorthEast buses 93 & 94 circular route, they go past it. Glad to see it's dog-friendly, I think we'll be taking ours for a bus ride for a walk along the bank then call in for something to eat.

[@darrenmechen1136]

As somebody who’s allergic to dogs I’m getting really sick of dog friendly places. As if the dogs can’t stay at home for a couple of hours ffs.

areet Eddie n the lovely better half Helen? wor lass n I used to do this every weekend when we had a caravan sited at Haltwhisle just before covid as sand dancers! For me personally, after months of travelling about all the villages on the way yem to 'soo sheelz' the best sunda lunch av ever had was at the 3 tuns, heddon at the turn off for the military road! Honestly the plate was proppa gadgey sized (maybe checked me build oot on ordering n said he looks like he could eat some lol) but ffs the dinna was lush! Av had some massive Christmas dinnaz in me time but this was fkn epic! Just try it! Might have a different chef now like but sittin chompin that meal watchin the toon on a few screens was a memory to savour! The pubs in a poor location for dogs as there's nay space but they welcome wa 2 twatterdales in nay botha :) Get yasels in but you'll need a nap lol ;)

[@tanyarobinson2954]

Hi guys thanks for the review of the schooner your opinion was exactly the same as mine of the lunch a bit of family nostalgia Sunday lunch and the staff are so friendly too ... if I can make a suggestion for your next one try sambuccas in trinity Square Gateshead it my new goto Sunday lunch place and the staff are brilliant there too .. keep up the good works xxxxx

[@TynesideLife]

Thank you Tanya 👍🏻

[@darrenmechen1136]

BBC Sport wrote today in the article about Everton and Nottingham charged regarding financial rules: Clubs can lose a maximum of £105m over a three-season period, or £35m per campaign, before facing sanctions. We’ve had loses of £70m two years in a row. Are we in danger of getting charged then? Do you know?

[@TynesideLife]

Hi mate, this is such a complex topic that only the accounts really know. You’re right about the broad rules though. Man City will likely face sanctions next season at the conclusion of their investigation. I’m certain that our owners are all over this and haven’t breached ffp. Our accounts do show however that we’ve got very little wriggle room to bring reinforcements in, especially this January. I wouldn’t build your hopes up for big signings. The summer should see some players end their contracts and we may sell one or two to bring some in.

Rumors on BBC: "Newcastle United will be forced to sell Bruno Guimaraes, 26, and Alexander Isak, 24, to meet Financial Fair Play regulations" I hope not they are correct :(

[@TynesideLife]

You’ve put quotation marks around that bud. Can you add the source please cos I can’t find that. We aren’t in breach of ffp as far as I’m aware but I am expecting Bruno to be sold in the summer if a big European club trigger his £100m release clause. I am worried however if Trippier goes to Bayern Munich that it may cause a domino effect for players like Isak who want to play European football.
