Newcastle - The UK's Stag Do Capital

Home of Ant and Dec, Greggs and our HQ – Newcastle is arguably Britain’s best city for a stag do. Famed for being a party city, your boozy bar crawl could take to legendary spots such as the Quayside, Bigg Market or the Diamond Strip. You’ll definitely have a belter time, as Geordies love two things: Newcastle United (especially Alan Shearer) and booze…. lots and lots of lovely booze!

Best Newcastle Nightlife Areas for a Stag Do

Newcastle, the undisputed ‘party capital of the north’ constantly blows every other city out of the running, with no shortage of nightlife options, attractions, lovely northern lasses, Newcastle Brown Ale and activities that pump every bit of blood you’ve got. There are five main nightlife areas in the city, each with distinctly different vibes, to suit each and every stag group...

Boozy,
Brilliant
Bigg Market

One of the most notorious drinking quarters in the world – and for all the right reasons. The Bigg Market is nothing short of legendary. From Mushroom’s sticky, treble soaked floors at the top of the street through to the trendy wine bar that used to be a public toilet, the Bigg Market is as eclectic as it gets. It is also at the centre of a major revamp, with new bars popping up all the time (And some, like Filthy’s, that are open very late). But it really is a place you should spend at least one night of your life in – and it will be one you won’t forget in a hurry.

Diamond Strip

The birthplace of Geordie Shore, and as Scotty T would say, it is canny decent. It is VIP all the way down here baby, while you’ll struggle to find anywhere on a weekend that isn’t absolutely bouncing. From Howlers (which has a ball pit!) to the super cool NYC-themed Manahatta, the Diamond Strip is a must-do for any self-respecting stag. And if you fancy following in the footsteps of Gaz, Chloe Ferry and Marnie Simpson, there’s a good chance you’ll end up mortal too – and if you’re lucky you might even get a tash on – but just try not to get pied off.

Quayside

It isn’t just about the bridges (Although The Tyne Bridge is a stunner). The Quayside is dripping with pubs, bars and restaurants – ranging from cheap and cheerful to some of the chicest haunts in the North. Everyone from Floyd Mayweather to Harrison Ford (yes, Han Solo himself) have partied down here but just one word of warning – the hill back up into the city centre is a killer after ten pints.

Grey/Dean Street

The Toon’s swankiest street and once voted Britain’s best looking street, the stunning Georgian architecture is a feast for the eyes. However, given you are unlikely to be bothered by that, we will cut to the chase: There are tons of cocktail bars and a strip club. Nip down the hill to Dean Street, and you’ll get more of the same – plus some of the city’s hippest joints – as well as a fleet of supercars to ogle.

Jesmond

If they filmed a Toon version of Made in Chelsea, this is where they’d shoot. Possibly the city’s poshest postcode - but also one of the wildest. At the heart of it is Osborne Road, a hotbed of debauched students gagging for a good time. Besides that there are boutique shops and trendy eateries, but there are also plenty of bars crawling with life and happy hours – Spy Bar’s ‘push the button’ offer is the stuff of local legend while hipster haunts such as Jam Jar serve up Instagrammable cocktails that really are picture perfect.

1
Howlers

28-32 Collingwood St, NE1 1JF
Visit Website
If you fancy getting balls deep in Newcastle, you’re in luck. Howlers is paradise for big kids. In a nutshell, it is a giant soft play with the option of bottomless booze. The subterranean Diamond Strip spot is most famous for the big ball pit, but the cocktails are also flippin’ fabulous and we would know, having had a cracking staff night out there.It has everything from drag shows and pizza to bingo and lip sync battles. Beats a quiet night in Spoons, eh? Plus you’ll struggle to find anywhere better in the city to snap your perfect stag selfie than the giant Barbie box.

Bohemia

20 Collingwood Street, NE1 1JF
Visit Website
This firm-favourite amongst Geordie Shore, and locals alike, is what you’d call classy. It’s all exposed brick, leather booths, chandeliers and mood lighting. However, Bohemia's Alfresco Bar, Newcastle’s largest outdoor space - boasting a capacity for three hundred and fifty – is where you’ll spend most of the time. You can even access the Bigg Market’s, Swarley's, through here; two bars rolled into one magnificent package.

The WonderBar

The Gate, Newgate Street, NE1 5TG

It might sound like the sort of place you stumble into at 3am after a skinful in Berlin, but the Wonderbar specialises in something distinctly British. Darts. You know, Arrows. Double top. Innnnn one. Jim Bowen.Inside Newcastle’s only interactive darts venue, there are a raft of different games to help you channel your inner Phil Taylor And even if you don’t know your ochie from your bull, then this Gate-based boozer has you covered.Tons of TVs to watch the footy, pizza and a rotating range of beers (and they tend to be crackers) for the perfect day out with the lads.

Stein Bierkeller Newcastle

13 Bigg Market, NE1 1UN
Visit Website
Guten Tag! Welcome to the most Bavarian boozer west of Munich. Don your finest lederhosen and raise a glass to the land of Audi, Beethoven, and Uwe Rösler and reserve a spot for a night of German mayhem. The Stien Bierkeller Newcastle is an absolute belter of a bar, mainly because it doesn’t tinker with a winning recipe. Want banging music and table dancing? Check. Do you want a proper Bigg Market experience? Check? And I’m assuming, given you are looking to book a stag do, you want strong beer served in what can be best described as a vat? Check. It is so good, you’ll not want to say auf wiedersehen – just, whatever you do, don’t mention the war.

The Mushroom Bar

82 Grainger Street , NE1 5JQ
Visit Website
If you had to boil a Geordie night out down into one bar, this could very well be it.One of Tyneside’s greatest guilty pleasures, Mushroom’s staff have been fuelling hangovers for the best part of 20 years. Their weapon of choice? Trebles. Strong, strong trebles that will knock your shoes off.And you’d have noticed that once upon a time, as the venue used to have some of the stickiest floors in the Northern Hemisphere (Although hardly surprising given the number of vodka and Red Bulls they’d flog).However the venue has recently had recently been spruced up and looks the bee’s knees – although how much attention you’ll be paying to the décor after your fifth Skittles remains to be seen.

Revolution Newcastle

Collingwood Street, NE1 1JF
Visit Website
One word: vodka. The original home of the spirit that sends you home early is at the very start of Newcastle’s Diamond Strip (of MTV’s Geordie Shore fame). Set in a former bank, with original marble pillars and columns, it’s one of those bars you begin the night’s good intentions with (before ending it in a takeaway on the Bigg Market). But, back to the vodka – they range in flavours from Birthday Cake, to Das Bomb and XXX Chilli. Get yourself a Revs card and you’ll get special offers aplenty, including 2-4-1 lethal cocktails and awesome deals on pints, pitchers and shots. You can even get tasty food here. Good luck leaving here sober...

For Your Eyes Only Newcastle

8 Grainger Street, NE1 5EW
Visit Website
Tyneside’s biggest strip club - and the perfect spot for some saucy stag action. For Your Eyes Only strip club is an underground paradise that's packed with some of the most stunning Geordie lasses you’ll ever meet. And if the dancers get boring (impossible, by the way), there are several ultra HD TVs to feast your eyes on instead. FYEO also doesn’t shut until well past 4am at the weekend, although it is just as jumping before kick-off, offering some of the cheapest drinks deals and some of the biggest, well, you know what.

Flares Newcastle

33 Mosley Street, NE1 1YF
Visit Website
The opposite of a quiet, cosy night in the house – Flares is tacky, in your face and all the better for it.The bar that puts the F in Fun, expect neon colours, cheesy pop and truckloads of alcopops that you won’t have sipped since the late 90s. There’s absolutely nothing subtle about this legendary Tyneside party bars. Big, bold and brash is the name of the game - this is what a proper Geordie night out is all about. Just remember to leave your boring mates back at the hotel.

Fancy a bottle of dog without finding yourself at the centre of an RSPCA probe? Then visit this uber-chic Dean Street watering hole that loves the stuff – or, as it is known outside of the city walls, Newcastle Brown Ale.

Tick the Cultural Box on Your Newcastle Stag Do

There is more to Newcastle than beer, footy and Greggs. Geordies are real culture-vultures – just check out our Top 10 cultural attractions for proof – although we are still partial to a steak bake after a bar crawl.

1
The Strawberry Pub
7-8 Strawberry Pl, Newcastle upon Tyne, NE1 4SF
Visit Website
Picking a pub as a cultural hotspot may seem like the most Geordie thing ever, but The Strawberry is something a bit special. Nestled in the shadow of St James’ Park, the iconic boozer is a Tyneside landmark. The rooftop beer garden is one of the best places to sip a pint as the sun sets, and also perfect for a refreshing bevvie after your NUFC Rooftop Tour.
2
St. James' Park
Barrack Rd, Newcastle upon Tyne, NE1 4ST
Visit Website
And that brings us on nicely to The Strawberry’s next door neighbour. The lifeblood of a city that lives and breathes football, St James’ Park is one of the Premier League’s biggest grounds and capable of hosting over 52,000 screaming Geordies every week. LNOF’s been lucky enough to follow the likes of Alan Shearer and grace the hallowed turf and, while our staff are unlikely to be appearing on Match of the Day anytime soon, you could take a take a private tour for a peak inside the Magpies nest.
3
Wylam Brewery
Palace of Arts Exhibition Park, Claremont Road, NE2 4PZ
Visit Website
And if beer is what you are after, welcome to paradise. Located in the city centre’s magnificent Exhibition Park, it resides in the lakeside Palace of Arts, which was opened almost a century ago by the then Prince of Wales. Now if it houses one of the North East’s best craft breweries while the spacious venue also stages everything from weddings to gigs (and also a cracking spot for a chilled-out Sunday roast before your train).
4
The Tyne Bridge
A167, Newcastle upon Tyne, NE8 2BH
And when that train departs Central Station, this will likely be the last thing you see in Newcastle. But what a legacy to leave on. Geordies are rightfully proud of their bridges – there are seven across the River Tyne – and this is arguably the most magnificent of them all. Opened in 1928 by King George V, the 389m long design was based on the Sydney Harbour Bridge – but we think it is better, especially while sipping a drink in the shadow of it on The Quayside. Thankfully, we offer plenty of hotels that are a mere stone’s throw away if you too wish to bask in its green glory.
5
Tyne Walk of Fame
Quayside
From Music to Hollywood, Newcastle has knocked out a fair few celebs over the years. From Cheryl Cole and Sting to Sir Bobby Robson and Gazza, many of the biggest stars were born and bred on Tyneside. And if you fancy walking off that bottomless brunch with a walk along The Quayside, this is a great chance to spot some of the bronze plaques bestowed on our most famous sons and daughters (obviously Ant and Dec are in there).
6
Castle Keep
Castle Garth, Newcastle upon Tyne, NE1 1RQ
Visit Website
Almost 900 years old and with a grisly, blood-soaked history, the castle was once Newcastle’s last line of defence during the English Civil War, while prisoners chains still remain it the dungeon. The closest you’ll get to a working dungeon in Newcastle these days is by hiring a dominatirx on your stag do. But if you prefer to be a history buff than in the buff, the Castle’s remarkable past (someone once launched a donkey off the roof) will keep you entertained for hours.
7
Grey’s Monument
150 Grainger St, Newcastle upon Tyne, NE1 5AF
Named after the 2nd Early Grey, hopefully it will be your cup of tea. Geordie’s adore the Grade I listed design, with the 135ft monument always a popular central spot to meet your mates (especially as it has a Metro station directly beneath). And you might get lucky – officials very occasionally let the public climb the 164 step spiral staircase. It provides one of the most special panoramic views of the city – but be warned, it is a tight squeeze.
8
Victoria Tunnel
53-55 Lime St, Ouseburn Valley, NE1 2PQ
Visit Website
At almost 4km long and buried up to 85ft below the city, the tunnel runs through much of central Newcastle – including the Central Motorway and Northumbria University. Work commenced on the tunnel in 1839, with the aim of using it as a wagonway to transport coal through the city before it was eventually abandoned. It later found use as a World War Two air-raid shelter. Now, it is a tourist attraction – and a very cool one at that
9
China Town
Stowell St, Newcastle upon Tyne, NE1 4XQ
Located in the western part of the city and marked by lanterns, statues and a huge Chinese arch, China Town is one of only five China Towns in England, and a great place to grab some traditional Chinese food before heading out. Nestled mostly along Stowell Street and close to St James Park, the cultural hub of China Town attracts thousands every week. Apart from restaurants, it also houses Spot White American Pool Lounge and is just a stone's throw from The Gate complex with its cinemas and bars.
10
Angel of the North
Durham Rd, Low Eighton, NE9 7TY
Viewed by around 33m people each year (largely due to the fact it looms over the A1), architect Anthony Gormley’s steel sculpture split opinion like nothing else when it was unveiled in 1998. Now it is a Tyneside treasure, and worthy of a pilgrimage – especially as you could have a kickabout on the footy pitch directly next to it.

Staying Safe in Newcastle

Newcastle has a friendly vibe to it, but even so your group wants to be aware of how to keep safe on a night out in the toon. Here are our safety tips:

Don't let any of your pals wander off on their own

If you’re staying over in accommodation, make sure the group all have the address/any passcodes you may need – you could put this in your group chat

Keep an eye on your drinks and don’t leave them unattended in case of the rare risk of spiking

Keep to the lit areas of Newcastle and don’t go to unfamiliar areas

Be aware of pickpockets and make sure you don’t have any valuables in your back pockets

Be extra mindful near water and look out for your group when you are near the Quayside

With all of this in mind, we’re sure you’ll have a mint night out in the best city in the world (we reckon).

Newcastle is just off the A1, and is seriously easy to drive to. From London, it takes around five hours (with that all-important service stop included) and three from Manchester. However, if you're visiting Newcastle from bonny Scotland - you are looking at just two hours from the capital, Edinburgh.

Getting Around Newcastle

Getting to Newcastle may be easy, but getting around is a walk in the park. You’ve got the Metro, the bus, taxis and your feet (haway) to explore this city on your stag weekend.

Metro
With 60 stations stretching from North Tyneside down to Sunderland, the Tyne and Wear Metro is second only to the London Underground in terms of Britain’s biggest metro systems – spanning a whopping 48.2 miles. The colossal train system launched in 1980 and covers vast swathes of the North East – with stops also in Gateshead, South Tyneside and of course Newcastle – and is the perfect way to see our beautiful beaches, stunning landmarks (and of course, taxi your group between bars for just over £5 per person). Running from 05.37am until just after midnight, the metros had a facelift in 2022 – with new state-of-the art carriages. Crucially, there’s a station at both the airport and central station.

Bus
Buses are very frequent in Newcastle. There are stops directly outside Central Station and the city has a modern depot slap bang in the centre – and attached to the sprawling Eldon Square shopping centre. Operators like Arriva, Stagecoach and Go North East all run services in the main nightlife hubs – the likes of Jesmond, Gateshead and the City Centre – while a connection from the airport to the latter takes roughly 25 minutes. Most operators offer affordable day passes (less than a fiver) while a Network One Day Rover costs £6.00 and covers the bus, Metro and even the ferry which links South Shields and the booming North Shields Fish Quay (it is where Sam Fender hangs out!)

Taxi
There’s a big rank at the Central Station for black cabs. Unlike some places, private taxis are much cheaper in Newcastle. We recommend Blueline (0191 262 666)), LA Taxis on (0191 287 7777) and ABC Taxis (0191 232 3636). Uber is well established in Newcastle but - a local tip – if you are heading out of the city, head right towards Collingwood Street when exiting the station to be collected, as there’s a one-way system around there which could add a few quid to your fare. There’s a taxi rank at the airport – it is about £20 to get to the City Centre – and that’s just outside the Terminal.

Walk
A great joy of Newcastle is that everywhere in the city centre is walkable. From The Gate to the Quayside, nothing is more than a ten minute walk (or 20 minutes in killer heels), while a stroll along the Quayside is the perfect way to burn off that bottomless brunch – or clear your head the next morning. Other hotspots like Jesmond or the Ouseburn can be reached on foot, but far enough that a taxi or Metro makes more sense.
