About this Pub
Why it's great for Matchdays
Shows live football (including Sky Sports) and advertises matchday viewing on multiple TVs, making it a handy spot to watch the game. They also trail pre-match hot sandwiches and matchday food offers, and publish regular food serving times. Transport is easy on a matchday: the pub is by Sunderland University with many buses stopping outside and University Metro station a short walk away, so it’s straightforward to get across to the Stadium of Light or back to the city centre after the final whistle.

Excellent venue for live music. I only went to see the band so I could not rate the food. However I am sure it will be fine. The staff are very friendly, even suggested to buy a bottle of wine rather than a glass as it was cheaper. The clientele were also very amicable and made the atmosphere very welcoming. The sound from the band was also excellent so we all had a fantastic time and would definitely go back. Parking was also not a problem.
Great local pub just outside the city centre which serves good food and drinks with friendly staff. Can be quite at times which is not a bad thing.
Fantastic food for reasonable prices. Sunday carvery is fantastic.
Love coming here, laid back friendly atmosphere, love coming here for food, for a couple drinks, game of pool and darts and the quiz night.
Great bar, great management, great staff. It's lost none of the atmosphere from back in the late 80s when it was my student haunt as the Royalty, but it's in good nick and has live bands on now too. Get yourself in on a Saturday for the bands or there's karaoke one midweek night if you want to sing.
