3SIXTY Restaurant & Sky Bar

You'll find this sleek spot perched high above the city, where floor-to-ceiling windows frame sweeping views across Newcastle's skyline. The restaurant side serves up contemporary dishes that actually justify the elevated setting, while the bar area becomes properly buzzy come evening with a cocktail menu that goes beyond the usual suspects. The real draw here is that sky bar experience – there's something undeniably satisfying about sipping a well-made drink while looking out over the Tyne's urban sprawl. It's the kind of place that works equally well for impressing a date or celebrating with friends, though you'll want to book ahead for weekend slots.
