Newcastle is known for its pub culture. People travel from far and wide to experience the city’s nightlife and renowned drinking holes.
But so many of our favourite pubs has disappeared over the years. And there’s nothing like the heartbreak that follows losing one of your go-to spots.
For many of us, we don’t even recognise most of the city centre anymore.
The city is ever-changing. However Geordies love to reminisce and remember the amazing nights they had on the town decades ago.
So, here’s a collection of 10 of Newcastle’s lost pubs.
Perhaps you frequented them regularly, or missed your chance to experience the fun completely.
Many of these buildings still stand, but some have been lost forever along with beer-filled memories.
We have memories from the Bigg Market and Haymarket as well as further afield to jog your memories.
Do you remember having a pint in one of these spots? What about a memorable night out with friends?
We hope they bring back some amazing memories.
Have we missed any you think deserve a mention?
Take a look and let us know.
5. Barley Mow
Perched above the Quayside, this was THE place for many indie music lovers to flock to in the 80s and 90s, especially on Friday nights. It's fire-hit remains act as a sad reminder of its fall from grace. | Newcastle Libs
6. Broken Doll
Once an iconic music bar in Newcastle, the venue for many a legendary gig or music night. St James' Boulevard now runs where it once could be found. | Newcastle libraries
7. The Farmers’ Rest
A big part of the Haymarket drinking route and a huge matchday favourite among Newcastle fans. Now the expanded M&S occupies the site where it once stood. | Public domain
8. Lennons
If songs from the past were your thing then this was the bar for you. A great spot for a nostalgic night out. Now Sinners stands where it once did. | Google
