12 photos inside a beloved former bar as taproom bar plans announced

The keys of a much-loved city centre bar have been handed to a Newcastle Taproom.

The craft beer experts at Mosaic Tap are currently renovating the former Prohibition Bar on Pink Lane.

Keys were handed to the taproom team at the start of 2026 with plans to move the business from an arch on Forth Goods Yard, tucked behind the Life Centre and Newcastle Central Station.

Plans from the Mosaic Tap team suggest the move will take place later this year.

We were invited to take a look around the site as it looked at the end of January. Take a look around in the gallery below.
