This pub is the«hidden gem» in Newcastle-under-Lyme. Live music nearly all the time compliments the variety of ales they have to offer. Definitely recommended.

This is probably the best pub in Staffordshire, they have some great bands on here and a great atmosphere too. The drinks are a little more expensive that some pubs, but not that much more and it’s worth it as you get to watch some of the best bands around.

There are a couple of things which stop The Old Brown Jug from being my local… firstly, the location… it’s not local to me which doesn’t help as it means I have to drive there(a great opportunity to mention the ample parking outside). Secondly, the price. The Old Brown Jug is a bit more expensive than you’re average pub. I view it as a place I go to as a treat or as a one off rather than a regular place otherwise you would just be skint all the time. One thing which does take me there is the great selection of drinks on offer. The pub has a number of continental beers such as my favourite Erdinger and also has a range of real ales and ciders. Thursday night is cheap cider night so a good chance to get along and test out some new brews! The pub itself is very spacious with rustic wooden floors and a homely feel. The garden out the back is huge with plenty of seating and is covered by parasols and heaters meaning you can stay relatively dry if the weather takes a turn for the worse. A top pub in the Stoke area and well worth checking out.

Small, quaint pub near the end of Newcastle City Centre so can be easily missed at times. Nice traditional style pub, friendly staff and locals — good choice of drinks, especially real ales all rather affordable. One quite interesting attraction to the Jug is all the live music/salsa/acoustic nights they host. Student friendly, worth a visit or two.
