Just along from Marrime on St George’s Terrace. Newcastle’s first self‑serve wine bar, with sharing boards and a warm, intimate feel. Our go‑to recommendation for that first glass of wine after you’ve found the dress.

As well as the food, Long Friday is brilliant for wine and cocktails. If you want everything – dinner, drinks and debrief – in one chic little spot, this is it.

46 Brentwood Avenue,
West Jesmond,
Newcastle upon Tyne,
NE2 3DH

An intimate, table‑service cocktail bar tucked away in the city centre. Candlelight, seriously good drinks and a “hidden gem” feel. Perfect for a chic bride‑tribe evening.

44 Old George Yard,
Cloth Market,
Newcastle upon Tyne,
NE1 1EE

A beautiful bar and restaurant in a grand old building. Ideal for pre‑ or post‑dinner cocktails if you’re dressing up and heading into town.

13 High Bridge,
Newcastle upon Tyne,
NE1 1UW

For skyline views, glass domes and live‑music vibes, city‑centre rooftop spots like The Botanist are a fun choice for hens who still want things to feel pretty and polished.
