The Tyne Bar
This gem is located right next to the Quayside. It’s an independent pub with a beergard under a bridge.
Wylam and other local breweries are available at the bar. Almasty Brewing Co. also has a rotating rotation.
The Tyne is also a music venue, with good bands and DJs playing here regularly, so try not to spill your pint when you’re in the crowd.
Free Trade Inn
Enjoy the best views of the city while sipping beer at the Free Trade Inn, Ouseburn.
While it’s a little way out of the city, the walk over is worth it, as you can see all over Newcastle and Gateshead’s skyline.
This traditional pub is known for its shabby chic appeal and wide selection of cask ales, keg ales, and bottled beers which are always changing.
Old George Inn
The pub is located in a courtyard which feels miles from the city, even though it’s right in the middle of the city.
It’s a lovely place to visit with a cracking selection of beers, as well as a vibrant beer garden with bunting and big TV screens. It’s also Newcastle’s oldest pub, first established in 1582, and has had royal visitors in the past, as King Charles I used to be a regular when he was in an open prison nearby.
Enjoy a pint of beer and the historical sounds while you soak in the atmosphere.
The Broad Chare
A proper British pub.
Low lighting, comfortable leather seats, and familiar favorites like fish and chips and burgers are all part of the plan.
Found by the Quayside, the Broad Chare has a large beer menu to look over and stocks its own house pale ale called The Writer’s Block.
You can also find many beers from all over the globe.
