The Quay Taphouse on the Fish Quay in North Shields, North East England, is a very nice pub/bar where you can get a good bottle of wine or beer, together with lots of lovely tapas at a very reasonable price. My friend and I are regular customers when I am home and we very happily starve ourselves all day just to enjoy a great treat eating here!

There are many choices of tapas such as fish, salads, crab, chicken and olives to name but a few. There are, of course, loads of other drinks available from the bar and other kinds of food should you prefer. This place is very popular so it is advisable not to arrive too late!

Located right on the quayside means there is always constant movement of boats, massive cruisers and other river traffic to keep customers entertained. As soon as we notice one coming down The Tyne, I am straight out with my phone to take photos and videos.

Last year, the Crossing The Tyne Festival 2017 took part in many pubs and venues around Tyneside and The Quay Taphouse was one of them; lots of local singers and artists performed and all collections went to a deserving charity. Watch out for Crossing The Tyne Festival 2018!

With wonderful views of South Shields and lovely breathtaking walks to enjoy after you have eaten, I would certainly recommend trying this great place if you are in the area.
