I enjoyed a couple of drinks in this circular, subterranean bar at Newcastle's Bigg Market. It's an atmospheric spot for a beverage with a friend, on a date or with a small group. Despite having an email confirmation of our booking, the server who greeted us at the entrance of this converted public toilet has no details. Thankfully , we could be accommodated. Otherwise it was a pleasant visit.
We were lucky enough to get a table as we hadn't booked and it was very busy as you can expect for a Friday, I'd recommend booking in advance as this place is very popular and it's easy to see why. Not my first visit to the WC and certainly won't be my last. Great service great atmosphere and the best cocktails in Newcastle in my opinion. This place also has a little sister place a stone throw away called the WC Gincloset tho it's even smaller inside.
Fun little place to visit, while we were passing. The staff were helpful and accommodating. Drinks were lovely, cosy atmosphere. Didn't venture here in the past, knowing what it used to be 🤫 so obviously a first time visit for this "lady".
They squeezed us in after we made a mistake with our booking, the staff were all so friendly. I didn't know what I wanted to drink so asked the bartender to get creative and give me something they'd have fun making. They only charged me a fiver for this simply incredible mocktail, one of the best I've ever had.
Lovely little hidden gem in the centre of Newcastle. Cocktails and other drinks quite pricey but what you'd expect in the city. Drinks offer 241 though the week though. Would recommend booking, especially on weekends, as there are only 10-14 tables available. Fast friendly service. Ironically the actual toilets are very small but just maximising the floor space for the small space available. Good atmosphere with the noise echoing throughout the establishment. No draught beer, only bottles or cans. Would recommend the Lady in Red Cocktail 👌
