...to NewcastleGateshead's bars, clubs, pubs and breweries.
Newcastle is well known for its bouncing nightlife, and the choice of bars and pubs in Newcastle and Gateshead provide everything you need for a great night out. There is something to suit all night owls from cosy pubs with space to catch up over a pint to trendy breweries with an independent flavour; late-bars and clubs which will see you dancing until the small hours and a luxury rooftop bar or two for those in search of a touch of glamour!
Ouseburn is a hotspot for casual drinks in quirky pubs and micro-breweries packed with character and atmosphere. Alternatively, spill out onto the streets with the rise of alfresco bars and beer gardens with By The River Brew Co on Gateshead Quayside firmly hitting the top spot of breweries with a riverside terrace you must visit.
From casual drinks with dinner at any of Newcastle’s restaurants, bubbling Bottomless Brunches, to action packed sports bars or the stylish Quayside bars with their views along the river, you can sip hand-crafted beers, innovative cocktails or sophisticated champagne spritzers depending on which venue you choose.
If you’re craving a cocktail, why not head to any of the trendy bars in Jesmond where mixology and fantastic food meet for the perfect low-key evening - or, why not get some mates together for a cocktail making class? Meanwhile, nearby Gosforth has a plethora of traditional-style pubs, and even dog-friendly pubs, where you can enjoy strong ales, hearty grub and maybe even a board game or two. Live music fans will not want to miss Wylam Brewery's eclectic event nights or head to The Cluny in Ouseburn to experience performances from upcoming artists.
Newcastle's famous Bigg Market is also a guaranteed good night 'out out' with the likes of Market Shaker, WC and Revolucion de Cuba to name just a handful of bars.
A stone's throw from Newcastle Central Station, get ready to dance til your feet hurt at one of the biggest and most popular nightclubs, Powerhouse which is open seven days a week and until 5am on Saturdays for those hardcore clubbers! Nearby 'must-visit' bars include Dog & Parrot and Rusty's or take in some of the best live cabaret at Boulevard.
