STACK Newcastle

Head down to Worswick Chambers and you'll find yourself in one of those rare Newcastle spaces that actually feels like somewhere—exposed brick, high ceilings, the kind of bones that come from actual history rather than a designer's mood board. STACK does the full package: you're getting decent cocktails and a food menu that doesn't try too hard but lands properly, alongside live music that ranges from indie nights to proper acts. It's the sort of place you end up staying longer than you planned, three hours in and you've lost track of time.
