The Pont Tap

As the first and (currently) only micropub in Ponteland, The Pont Tap is a firm favourite for locals and visitors alike.

Run by husband-and-wife duo Mick and Angie Barnes, the micropub has a welcoming and intimate environment which makes you feel instantly at home.

There is a fantastic range of real ales and craft beers (many of which are local), as well as wine, gins and other spirits to choose from.

The Pont Tap’s impressive selection of drinks, along with the friendly service and chic decor, means that it’s often abuzz with people popping in to soak up the atmosphere.
