Four Quarters Newcastle

You'll hear the satisfying clack of pinball flippers and the electronic bleeps of arcade classics before you even step inside this nostalgic gaming paradise. The cocktails are surprisingly sophisticated – think craft spirits mixed with genuine care rather than the sugary slush you'd expect from a theme bar. The space buzzes with twenty and thirty-somethings channeling their inner child over rounds of Street Fighter II, while couples battle it out on Pac-Man between properly made Old Fashioneds. The lighting's all neon and CRT glow, creating that perfect retro atmosphere without feeling gimmicky. Whether you're settling in for a serious pinball tournament or just fancy a decent drink surrounded by gaming nostalgia, it delivers on both fronts with genuine enthusiasm.
