Colonel Porters in Newcastle upon Tyne

Love this place. It's not cheap but it's certainly different. Has live music on. Mainly duet's or solo artists playing piano or guitar with or without a singer. Not normally my thing but you do get some quality acts in there. You'll spend a lot of time looking around at some really random old & quirky stuff. Well worth a visit.

Another pub that is a, must visit, bottom of Dean Street beside the roundabout. Table service and lots to choose from. Keep your eyes open and look around to see the different things on display.

Visited on a Friday night for a work colleagues retirement. Surprised we all got in, normally these places employ the fun police and stop groups but in we went! Not a bad place, the music was alright not the usual thump-thump sh!te that gets played.

I love this place because they sell Goslings Black Seal Rum! It's my absolute favourite and anytime I visit Newcastle I will be stopping here.Cons: the tables can be sticky and barely looked after.Still a really nice atmosphere though.

Nice decor (especially the ceiling), the bar is one of the prettiest I’ve seen, the feel of the place is very chilled out, attentive staff, quick service and reasonably-priced drinks. Booths are comfortable and room is very spacious.

We popped in here randomly after hear live music, we had an awesome couple hours drinking some pretty nice cocktails and listening to some great live music. The staff were super friendly and the decor and atmosphere is brilliant.

Great cocktails. Great service and great music. Came here after a birthday meal and loved the music playing then we had a live musician playing. Would definitely come back again. Also found the secret disco but nothing was on.

I arranged to meet friends here before dining elsewhere. We all wished we could just have stayed all night. The decor is amazing and the service is superb. Loved the 'spin the wheel' (won 10% off a round). There was also the added bonus of live acoustic music. We all loved it so much we dashed back for last orders after we'd eaten and had a couple of delicious cocktails accompanied by complementary popcorn. We'll definitely be returning.

Went on a quiet Wednesday night, but have been many times and for different occasions. Love this place. Great range of drinks and always good music, funky decor but always the same great atmosphere. 2 for £12 9n Cocktails on Wednesday is a nice treat too!

We came here on a Thursday evening and it wasn’t very busy however it meant we got a choice of tables which is a bonus. The decor inside is amazing and very quirky.All of the cocktails we had were delicious (and we had quite a few).They were also on offer for 2 for £12 which was a bonus.The staff were kind enough to let us know when last orders were approaching so we could get a few extra drinks in.I would definitely go again and would recommend you coming here to enjoy the experience.
