Licklist Guide to Bars in Newcastle

Newcastle’s reputation for being the party capital of the North East is one rumour that can be confidently believed. It’s no secret that our Geordie brothers and sisters know how to throw a good party. The bars of Newcastle allow a somewhat lesser lively atmosphere in comparison to the nightclubs. The bars in Newcastle are still set to make you feel like you are in a party of your own, the quirky bars are often accompanied with music making it that perfect Saturday night location. So we’ve help provide you with our definitive guide to bars in Newcastle.

The vibrant city of Newcastle has a fantastic choice of bars.  The Geordies welcome revellers for weekend breaks, stag & hen do’s and nights out throughout the year and with a cracking atmosphere on Friday & Saturday nights (and most other nights) a night out in Newcastle will not disappoint.  Our up-to-date Newcastle bar reviews and listings of the top bars in Newcastle will help you decide where to go whether you are heading to the Diamond Strip, Grey Street, the Quayside, Bigg Market or elsewhere in the city.  The vibe in the different areas is distinct but throughout you will find the Geordie spirit shines through in and you are sure to have a great night out on the toon.

Our Newcastle nightlife photo galleries are a popular resource for visitors wanting to see what the bars & clubs are like and of course you can look at each venue individually to find out where it is, what’s on and what the vibe is like.  Our users also post reviews of their experiences of the bars in Newcastle, so you can make a more informed decision about where to go.
