The 10 Best Nightlife in Newcastle upon Tyne, England

July 1, 2021 Rebbecca Marino

Once a shipbuilding city, Newcastle's flashier claim to fame is nightlife. Throw in a heap of premium restaurants serving foods from all over the world and it's no wonder young partiers choose to blow their hard-earned (or not-so-hard-earned) cash in Newcastle. While these amenities are certainly a draw for the hipsters and culture-seekers, it's the locals that make Newcastle a truly special place to visit. "Geordies," as they are often called, embody the pride, industriousness and resilient spirit of their city.

Entrance to the basement comedy club is via the Stand Bistro, with an 'accessible' entrance to the side, and a terrace to the rear.

I attend the monthly burlesque shows which are always a brilliant night out, I often pop in for a couple of drinks at the start of a evening / dinner in town and I’m always served by brilliant staff and the bar has a lovely atmosphere. There is two levels so ideal for a private party upstairs. Decor is great and you do feel like you have traveled back in time. It’s a proper gem of a bar, right in the city centre. Well worth a visit! X

The Strawberry

Reviewed By MSDerbyshire - Derbyshire, United Kingdom

We had a one night flying visit from 150 miles away to the area and popped in for a drink. Our son’s ashes are at St James Park, and we “visit” him every couple of months. This time was the 12th anniversary of his death. We usually go into Nine, but it’s still closed. It was a nice day and as we came out of the carpark we noticed outdoor tables here, so decided to have a quick toast to our son. The gentleman who checked us in took our details for track and trace, then we went to sit outside. It’s all table service, so he came out to take our order. He was really friendly and welcoming. We later had a coffee served by a lady who was equally lovely. We were very impressed with the way they’ve adapted, and loved being able to sit outside overlooking our son’s resting place. We shall look forward to popping in again when we’re next up there in October.

The Cumberland Arms

The Cumberland Arms is a fantastic Real Ale pub offering up to seven real ale hand pulls and a great bottle and keg selection that rotates exceptional beer from breweries spanning the British Isles and beyond and continually looks for new and exciting beers to bring home to share with their customers. It also boasts a fantastic cider selection that customers can savour, having won Camra Regional Cider Pub of The Year four consecutive years.There is an exciting mix of live music all year round with anything from indie gigs to the traditional folk and a generous splash of spoken word nights, theatre, weekly quiz and Ping Pong! Plus there is comedy once a month from The Suggestibles. The back room gives way to a host of traditional sessions most nights of the week, some with a heritage going back over twenty years, feel free to join in or just sit back and listen! The simple but quality bar menu includes up to 6 varieties of sausage and mash with home-made gravy, nachos, twice cooked chips and scampi plus a twist on the traditional Sunday Dinner plus other specials and when it’s sunny the BBQ comes out. Sit on the beer terrace overlooking the Ouseburn Valley and enjoy the views of the city or when it’s cold huddle next to the open fires. We also have a gem of a B&B if you fancy staying with us!The Cumberland Arms really is a great place to settle in and relax all year round.
