Gillen Arms

Call Directions

Established by the Gillen family in 1987. A Hartlepool landmark built on community, proper pints, and decades of stories.

Since we opened our doors, we’ve been the place where the neighborhood meets to celebrate, catch up, and unwind.

🎸 UNWRITTEN — LIVE THIS FRIDAY! 🎸

We’ve got Unwritten live from 7:30pm this coming Friday, FREE ENTRY, and everyone’s welcome for a proper Friday night of live music, cold pints and good company. 🍻🖤

And there’s another reason to make a night of it…

Our Ste is turning 60! 🎉

He keeps asking us if anyone’s actually coming to his party 😂 so consider this your invitation to come down, raise a glass and help us give him a 60th worth remembering.

🎂 Party from 6pm
🎸 Unwritten from 7:30pm
🍺 Free entry — everyone welcome

No tickets. No guest list. Just turn up, enjoy the band and come show Ste he’s got more mates than he thinks. 😂

60 years young. Still punk. Still partying. 🖤🤘

🎃 A huge THANK YOU to everyone who joined us for our kids’ Halloween party today! 👻

Fantastic costumes, plenty of dancing and a pub full of little monsters — just how we like it! 🧡

Thank you to all the parents, grandparents and carers for bringing them along, and to everyone who helped make the afternoon happen.

An extra thank you to our lovely regulars for putting up with our little monsters taking over the pub for a couple of hours — we promise we’ll give you a turn at musical statues next time! 😂

We hope the kids had as much fun as we did. Seeing families come together is what it’s all about. Thank you for supporting your local 🥰
