“The Colliery Inn struck me as a surprisingly versatile spot, balancing its pub atmosphere with the practical needs of travelers visiting the University of Newcastle. I noted the keg hire service-a distinctive touch that brings the pub experience to local gatherings, and the outdoor spaces welcome dogs, adding to the Inn's laid-back charm.
