The Priory

About The Priory

The Priory is a welcoming pub on Front Street in the heart of Tynemouth village, a short walk from the beaches and the priory ruins that give it its name. With smart, comfortable surroundings, a beer garden and step-free access, it aims to be an easygoing spot for locals and visitors alike, equally suited to a relaxed meal, a drink with friends or catching live sport on the big screens.

Alongside pub food and a well-stocked bar, The Priory is known for its regular entertainment, including live music, a weekly quiz and other seasonal events through the year. Live sport is shown via TNT Sports and Sky Sports, and the pub is dog-friendly with family-friendly facilities, reflecting its role as a sociable, all-round Front Street local rather than a purely food-led venue.
