Located outside of the main strip of Bars and clubs you can find an older orientated bar as Yates provides a typical Wetherspoon menu and Wetherspoon prices. As you enter the pub you find the bar straight ahead of you along with a staircase on your right leading to the toilets, bearing to your left you can find the Pool tables and slot machines.

watch out when ordering lager as you will be charged 2.80 for carling if you dont state that you just want the cheapest lager fosters i think!

Was in here last Sunday and had a great time. Food was reasonably priced and tasty, the staff were friendly and the DJ made a fuss over me mate on his birthday. Been a long time since we've been in, but we'll be back! They seem to have kicked all the idiots out as well.

we were always regulars in this once vibrant and popular pub , our lot went in on saturday and asked the dj for what we portrayed as normal pop songs and he just didnt have a clue , he was mumbling away about random stuff , the barmaid had a mug on her which was enough to sour the milk , and an attitude to match as was her scowl when one of us decided to change the drink to another brand which was before it was rung in the till and was left feeling some what looked down upon. we will be avoiding this place from now on as the 6 of us used to have to maybe 3 drinks each so another venue will get our hard earned cash now, such a shame .

I popped into this place the other week and it is really not as bad as people make out, yes it could do with a little revamp and obviously you are going to get some rough people there, but apart from that its ok. The staff are pleasent and professional, food & drink prices are excellent, they even have pool tables.

This place was class back in the days. Top management with Jaine and her top bar staff. 5 doormen on and the place was bouncing. Clean, cheesy party music and a wonderful atmosphere. Such a shame to see it go downhill

this place should be shut down as its an embarassment not just to the yates chain but to the city of sunderland! people are nervous just passing never mind going in!

well i must say i have been in better bars, the place stunk of urine, feet stuck to the floor, the glasses were disgusting i think they just give them a rinse, i could only last 5 mins in here, it needs a good clean and a lick of paint

Was in there last Saturday, place was packed to the rafters, maybe had sumthin to do with a match being on, drinks are a good price, beats the rest of the town price wise, the only thing that drags the place down is the drunks who get in there regularly, its obvious they are there for the drink, they look like something from the Jeremy Kyle show and smell of wet dog! And its always the same ones as well, they're there every time you go in! My suggestion to Management would be to clamp down on who they let in cos these people just drag the place down, its not nice to go somewhere and have stuff kicking off all the time!

The place should be re-named 'the jockey' because it reminds me of that pub in shameless. Full of pissheads and trouble kicking off every half an hour. Best avoided.

the decor is a bit rough round the edges but the staff are really friendly, the drink is super cheap and the food was good too. a lick of paint and maybe a few less chavs and this could be my new local!
