The colder weather has arrived early in the UK with nights drawing earlier in Newcastle along with cold snaps which have caused us all to adjust our warbrobes - it is tough to remember we are still only in mid September and winter is a wile away yet!
Anyone who still wants to enjoy a few drinks despite the cold weather is in luck across the city, with plenty of cost places ready to welcome drinkers for the coldest months of the year.
These are the best cosy pubs across Newcastle according to our team at NewcastleWorld.

5. The Crown Posada
This gem of a Quayside pub is said to be the city's second oldest boozer and allegedly bought by a Spanish sea captain for his mistress. By our reckoning she must have been small and beautiful. | JPIMedia Photo: JPIMedia

6. The Cumberland Arms
Perched above the Ouseburn Valley, The Cumberland Arms may be a climb to reach, but is always worth the effort. Compact but friendly, this is a must-visit pub to the east of the city centre. | The Cumberland Arms

7. Tyne Bar
Our Ouseburn bar crawl continues at the Tyne Bar. This riverside spot has a stunning food menu as well as live music every weekend through the year. Photo: Google

8. The Bridge Tavern
The popular Bridge Tavern is warm, cosy and exactly what you may need after a day in the city. Even the outside areas are kept warm thanks to a huge amount of external heaters. Photo: Google
