Following a fire and extended closure this Fitzgerald's pub reopened late April 2017 after major refurbishment. Apart from the bar area it is semi-partitioned into a number of discrete areas, some of which are laid out for dining. The pub boasts an extensive fish and seafood menu. There is a small open terrace near the main entrance overlooking the car park. To the rear of the building there is a takeaway for fish and chips which is also open 0900-1100 daily for light snacks.

The Briar Dene closed early 2023 and after extensive alterations reopened November 2023 as the Tavern and Galley. The bar counter has been relocated to a central location with various drinking and dining areas spread around it. The area nearest the main door is predominantly for drinking although not exclusively. The six handpunps are on the south facing end of the bar.

Information for this venue is provided by the Tyneside & Northumberland Branch of CAMRA
