Empress Bar & Garden

 

Amidst the vibrant streets of Newcastle, Empress Bar stands out as a true Geordie staple. This iconic spot, situated just behind the Cathedral and opposite Tup Tup Palace, is renowned as the meeting, passing, and finishing point for a genuine Geordie night out. With its proximity to the Diamond Strip, Quayside, Central Station, and Grey Street, it’s only a stone’s throw away from some of the city’s most bustling attractions.

Step inside and be transported into a space where Middle-England meets industrial deluxe, complete with eclectic decor, plush velvet and leather seating, and white marble tables. The Empress Bar has recently undergone a makeover, adding a luxurious touch to its already enchanting atmosphere. Here you’ll find the perfect blend of cosy cocktail bar vibes and a pulsing club atmosphere as the night unfolds.

As you settle into one of the homely booths, you’ll notice that the days of battling through crowds to get a drink are long gone. The venue has voluntarily reduced its capacity to prioritise comfort and personal space, making it an even more appealing destination. And if you’re not in the mood to visit the bar, worry not, as friendly servers are on hand to bring your drinks right to your table.

Empress Bar is open from 8pm on Sundays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, and from 6pm on Fridays and 5pm on Saturdays. Just walk in and find your spot, as it’s not a bookings-only venue.

The drinks menu at Empress Bar is nothing short of impressive, offering an incredible array of beers, spirits, shooters, and cocktails. Months of meticulous work have been dedicated to concocting unique cocktails and redefining classic recipes. The result? A selection of drinks that will leave you pleasantly surprised and eager to come back for more.

If you’re visiting during the warmer months, the Garden of Empress will be open, offering an enchanting alfresco experience. Be sure to make the most of it while you can, as it remains closed during chillier seasons.

Visitors to Empress Bar sing its praises, with accolades for the welcoming staff, fantastic DJ, and refreshing beers. It’s no wonder this iconic establishment is hailed as one of Newcastle’s busiest student bars, attracting thousands of visitors every week.

So, the next time you’re seeking an unforgettable night out, look no further than Empress Bar. With its revamped luxurious ambiance, exceptional drinks menu, and the perfect fusion of cosy and lively vibes, it’s the ultimate destination for an extraordinary Geordie experience.
