- "Purpose built Wetherspoons, which makes it rare. But they couldn't have got it more wrong with the building. Its like drinking in an airport with the echo of a swimming pool!".
- "Carpet is OK. Looks like a nod to that non slip stainless steel floor of industrial type places. Given Consett exists due to the Steel Industry I suppose that makes sense.".
- "Carpet infinitely better than the rest of this "Purpose built pub". Staff and drinks were good though, and Tim Martin was in at time of visit.".
- Thanks to David for the review, ratings and photo.
- Beer Garden.
"Consett came into being after the chance discovery of ironstone, which led to the formation of the Derwent Iron Company, in 1841, which constructed rows of houses, known as Company Rows, for its workers. The first included Staffordshire Terrace and Puddlers’ Row. Other rows – later called Princes Street, King Street and Queen Street – were built parallel to Front Street. They were mostly demolished in 1924 and, in 1936, the site became a market place, which has recently been developed." Read more on Wetherspoon's website
