The Vampire Rabbit

Welcome to The Vampire Rabbit, Newcastle’s newest cocktail haven, where history and legend meet in a unique drinking experience.

Nestled at 29 Collingwood Street, just a stone’s throw from the city’s train station, this brand-new bar pays homage to the enigmatic Vampire Rabbit statue that has watched over St Nicholas’ Cathedral for over a century.

What to Expect:
Step inside and explore four distinct spaces within the venue, each offering its own charm. Start your evening in the Grand Café, sip sophisticated cocktails in the Peacock Room, or uncover the snug and vault rooms for a more intimate vibe—perfect for adventurous souls. The historic vault, a remnant from the building’s shipping office days, adds an extra touch of intrigue.

Master mixologist Connor Hughes and his team have crafted a bold, experimental cocktail menu that’s as creative as it is delicious. Standout drinks include the Rhubarb and Custard Martini, served in a flamingo glass, and the Brûlée White Russian, which nods to the bar's maritime past. Looking for something lighter? The Strawberry and Peach Paloma or the zingy Pear Drop Martini might just hit the spot.

With live music adding a relaxed backdrop to your evening, The Vampire Rabbit isn’t just a place to drink—it’s a full experience. From the moment you walk through the door to the last sip of your cocktail, you'll be treated to impeccable service and a touch of Newcastle’s storied past. Whether you're a history buff, a cocktail enthusiast, or simply looking for a new spot to unwind, The Vampire Rabbit offers an unforgettable night out.
