Why is The Peacock good for fans?
In Sunderland city centre, The Peacock is specifically recommended to away fans by multiple official club guides, making it a reliable neutral pre-match option. It’s a short walk from Sunderland Railway/Metro (around six minutes), which is handy for travelling supporters. On matchdays the pub is known for a “strong match-day offering” including traditional ham & pease-pudding stotties, so you can get food before or after the game. Overall, its central location, away-fan welcome, and matchday food make it a practical meet-up spot en route to the Stadium of Light.

Sunday lunch was really good value. £12 good size portion. Really friendly staff, great music and double maxim on draft, what more could you want?

Called for food & drink before going to a show at The Fire Station next door. Great menu, not expensive & quality food. Drinks not over-priced. Friendly & helpful bar staff. Got a little noisy when away fans began chanting prior to going to match at Stadium of Light. No trouble though & would definitely recommend a visit.

We had our evening wedding function at The Peacock and we couldn't have asked for a better venue! Start to finish Cindy was absolutely fantastic and made sure we were well looked after, she did a fantastic job with the room and so many people complimented the lovely venue we had chosen. The staff members were all really friendly and went out of their way to make us feel comfortable and welcome. So glad we chose The Peacock for our wedding!

A great family-run pub in a beautiful building. It's probably my favourite pub in Sunderland. The atmosphere is always welcoming. There's usually live music on Friday and Saturday nights. The beer selection is decent including a few cask options and the prices are fair. I still need to try the food so I can't rate that but people always recommend it, particularly the Sunday lunches.

The place for your party, meeting, pub-crawl or anything else. Used for a festival during my visit. Great bar with friendly and fast crew!
