Rehill's of Jesmond

You'll find yourself on Jesmond Road surrounded by actual locals who know what they're after, not tourists Instagram-ing their gin. Rehill's has that reassuring feel of a neighbourhood shop that's been doing the same thing well for ages—wooden shelves, thoughtful selections, no pretension. Whether you're after a decent bottle of wine for under a tenner, craft beers from breweries you've heard of, or something specific that the big supermarkets can't be bothered stocking, the team here will point you right. It's the kind of place you pop into after work, or when you're planning something at home and actually want the good stuff.
