Review of The Pilgrim

join the pilgrims 
The Pilgrim is a real hit with the locals, the cheap beer, good atmos and a variety of music. real positve of this place is the cheap food made in the cantine like kitchen towards the back of the pub. The cooks are all friendly when they serve you and its much like being cooked for by your mum!
Its a great place to meet friends before a big night out, or simply go for a quite pint two.
One night in particular is the 'open mic' on a sunday, this allows for some of liverpools more colouful characters to showcase their singing talents which makes for an enjoyable evening.
Overall an excellent local, with cheap beer, and a relaxed atmosphere.

Review of East Ocean Chinese Seafood Restaurant
25 Apr 08, 14:59
dirty
Not the best food, or even value for money in town, and experienced particularly poor service on a recent visit. Also seated facing into the open kitchen, which wouldnt have been a problem at all if there wasnt a huge grubby looking old pizza oven with a hole in the side spoiling the otherwise much improved overall up finish to the place after a recent refurb. Took the edge of a family event for us.

Review of Doctor Browns

browns
Doctor Brown has managed to maintain and sustain the image of a traditional English pub, even though it is Located in the heart of Middlesbrough. To the modern eye the pub looks quite outdated and old fashioned but that seems to be eh appeal of the drinkers. It is very near the riverside so it is ideal for a few drinks on a Saturday if you are off the watch the Boro play. Quite often on a Saturday it seems to be backed full of Boro fans, probably due to the large TV so everyone can watch the game, this is possibly its busiest day. On a Friday night Doctor Browns quite often get live acts to play, the pub itself is not overly large so those that do play are normally just local. They offer a wide variety of drinks, unfortunately I have never eaten here before so I am unable to comment not the food, if you are in the area you should drop in and have a look

Review of Walkabout Inn
25 Apr 08, 14:50
love it
Walkabout is one of my favourite pubs in Middlesbrough; it is located under the Centre North East building so it is pretty difficult of miss. Walkabout is a chain of Australian pubs and they are increasing popular throughout the UK. This walk about is a massive open complex with a huge bar, it is extremely busy during the day for lunches and on weekends you quite often have to squeeze your way through to the bar. Perhaps one of the felling points of this bas is the menu, they claim to offer typical Australian dishes such as a crocodile filled and a kangaroo burger. I have never eaten either dishes but the novelty seems to attract many people. The pub has a massive function room about it which is quite often used for private parties, I have been to an engagement party there and it will fit many guests. Walkabout pulls in a variety of people, quite a lot of students and a lot of younger people that are out for a good night, as far as I remember it has a late licence remains busy right till the end of the night.

Review of Bar Med

Not thee best place but good for the over 25s
Wouldn't good here out of choice, it's pretty standard. The place is ok but lacking a definate edge. I've been here a few times and have been bored quite honestly.
They do good food mind and it serves well as a meeting point.
