Bar Loco Newcastle in Newcastle upon Tyne

Don't make a booking here. Staff were great, however the owner is not - effectively lied in order to steal £100 from us. We booked the upstairs for a meeting, and the owner claimed we didn't inform them of the meeting details, making up excuses to keep the £100 deposit. When booking we were fully informative, but when we raised this our number was blocked - very unprofessional way of dealing with customers.

Used to be unbelievable now it’s just another pub in town. Ah the memories

Lovely little place we didn’t have any food but the pizzas did look amazing. There is also a range of games to play chess back gammon and books to read. We enjoyed and will be back.

Good little pub.. pizzas are excellent and offers on during week

The pizzas are awesome, and the beer's canny too.

The drink and atmosphere was good. Food not happy with. I ordered pepperoni pizza and was very disappointed, the bottom of the pizza was burnt which ruined it.

1 . El personal del bar está demasiado ocupado hablando entre sí para molestarse en hablar siquiera una palabra a los clientes que piden bebidas g en el bar. 2 . De solo 3 mesas en la zona de bar. El nuestro estaba cubierto de vasos vacíos. 2 empleados hablando entre sí. Devolvimos los vasos al bar. 3 . Aún así, una botella de vino vacía en una cocina. Lo devolví al bar. 4 . Una doble medida consultada por ser corta recibió un “no fue así”. Descendió al modo pantomima. Sin empatía del cliente. Sólo petulancia. Tan triste ver un lugar atractivo muy cálido atendido por la fría indiferencia. .

The staff was very polite and very nice 👍🏻

Hands down best pizza in town. Great drink selection, fast service 👌

Great spot pre-match with some of the best pizza and beer Newcastle has to offer. 10/10 would recommend for any match goers who want a chilled out and high quality experience before going into the ground.

Brilliant post-match atmosphere. Great beer and staff.

Lush pizza. We sat by the roaring fire and enjoyed our food with a few drinks. Lovely vibes and I was rightly filled up. 🖤🤍

Went before the Newcastle match great atmosphere packed but not long to wait for a drink.

Love this place on a match day. Great staff, beer and pizza 😋

Great bar, good atmosphere and a good range of drinks.

Forgot to give a review the other day.. Great service, the food is good, best chips I've had in Newcastle area

Great vibes, super chill, wonderful staff

Very nice atmosphere, good drink.

Cocktails are 2 for £12, but they've no idea how to make them. Ordered 2 long island iced teas and got a double of a mystery spirit in each, half a glass of lemon juice from a bag and 100ml of coke.

Had some delicious caipirinha and margaritas in the sun, then finished it with a pizza. All of them were incredibly delicious so we will be back.

Great outdoor area for a drink in the sun. Pizzas looked good too

I came across the owner, broad long-haired fella, Paddy I think he was called, and really wish I didn't.. Couldn't speak, barely able to tell us his name and looked like could barely move. To be honest, it looked like he had sniffed a lot of ket he was that unresponsive (not saying he had but that's what it looked like). This used to be great but now it just seems like a place for friends of the owner to sniff ket or take whatever drugs they want. I used to come here 6 or 7 year ago regularly and nothing has changed. The men's toilets are absolutely rancid, as they were before this clown took over. Wouldn't recommend anyone coming here unless you want to buy drugs.

Great vibe, awesome food and friendly staff!

Decent bar but can get the same beers for half the price round the corner

Fab service, great place to start matchday afternoon 👌

Nice bar, lovely decor and staff. On Tuesdays when you spend £5 you get a free pizza!

Nice beers , close to town ( and footy ground) Friendly staff , nice atmosphere ( chilled)

Nice quirky place nice atmosphere friendly staff

Lovely staff,service nice, atmosphere lovely,deco fab

Great food and beer, and a welcoming atmosphere every time we go.

cool little bar, popped in for a pint before the match

The writing group I facilitate is at Bar Loco pretty regularly. We almost always have an excellent time. The staff (usually we see Laura) are wonderful and the menu, though smaller than it used to be, does not disappoint. The food is reliably beautiful. Keep up the excellent work!

Not a lot many options of drinks. It's a cozy place divided into several rooms. To me, it appeared more like a house than a bar

Amazing atmosphere.. loved the style and furniture 100% will be visiting again

Great near to the ground bar! Wanted a pizza but sadly not this time. Ladies loos apparently not great

Love the chilled out vibe here.

Great atmosphere; great seating; decent priced alcohol!

Great place to meet before any Newcastle home game you think you are not going to get served but the staff manage it give it a go just under a £5 for a pint and not far to the match ( across the road in fact ) 4****

Cozy little bar. I highly recommend trying their margaritas.

Stone cold. Why deliver this on a bike from Newcastle to Heaton. Bar Loco have a word with just eat the pizza is class but they need to sort it out like.

Great chips, pizza and beer. Fabulous function room upstairs. 👌

Chill place to go with friends and sit in the outside if it's doing a nice day or inside to feel more cozy, in any case grab some drinks and food

Really nice vibe inside, only popped in for 1 pint but will certainly be back! Had a quick glance at the menu and there was a good looking vegan option or two

Gezellige kroeg voor een pilsje van de tap, mooi aanbod, fijn terras en leuke mensen. Newcastle wat was je mooi!!!!

Ordering the food for the very first time and I haven’t been disappointed I’m glad I did amazing tasty pizzas wonderful flavors will definitely order again thanks guys keep doing what you doing

This is the best pizza I’ve enjoyed in a long time. The last time being when I was fortunate enough to be working on the Amalfi coast. This is the real deal - In house produced pizza dough and gorgeous capers, olives, sun-dried tomatoes. Just delightful.

Fantastic atmosphere,good food good selection of beers.

Good vibe just down from leazes park close to st James park. It's outdoor indoor social drinks big Wooden chunky tables great on a sunny day with nachos.

Really good pizza, will order again for sure.

Really nice place for a quiet drink, pizza lovely.. and kids friendly..loads of activities at night..for adults quiz night..Will be back again.

The pizza looked like it had been poured into the box and looked like vommit..

Delicious pizza. Never fails to disappoint

Delicious food (would 100% recommend the pizza!), great atmosphere and a good sun trap! We will definitely be coming back!

We love bar Loco, best bar in the Toon centre by far. Cosy friendly atmosphere, very canny staff. Great for just popping in for a quick one whilst in town or for a night out. Fabulous for private parties. Great outside space.

Nice bar with really well decorated rooms. Beer was good too

Lovely little bar in Newcastle. Staff were very friendly and talkative to explain abiut the money on the wall. Nice little sun trap beer garden too.

Great place to go on match days, tidy drop in there with a friendly atmosphere.

Wonderful bar staff, lovely little quirky place had chips to get us by and they were simply fantastic, good selection of drinks, lovely warm big fire, will return and recommend 💯 thank you

A nice bar of many cushions, honestly sitting in the mountain of cushions is the comfiest I've ever been... the alcohol is nice too... but those cushions man! 😍

Good service although limited beer choice if you like traditional beer styles.

Great food and drinks at a fair price, have been many times and will keep going back as the style of the place means you could be eating, drinking anywhere in the UK, Europe etc give it a go you won't be disappointed.

Decent bar and venue, nice mix of people and friendly staff

Was much better before the new owners

Was a lovely indoor / outdoor bar. Not too busy when I was there. Nice mix of people, some had been to the Magic Weekend rugby, nice to see opposing supporters getting on. Staff were friendly and helpful. Thanks

great pub, we sat outside, there's a lot of outdoor seating. It was quite windy but it wasn't cold so it was quite nice. It has a great atmosphere and the staff were really friendly. Will be going back again!

This bar has a Lovely outdoor area and has very affordable offers on cocktails

Had outdoor seating with umbrella covers, big tables which allowed to social distancing. Table service with card readers for all ordering which made life easier. Staff wore masks which was good to see as well.

Good vibes all around, also love when they host live music. Can't beat Bar Loco

The food is so good and the staff so lovely and kind. Thank you a lot, will be coming back

Great bar, good food, excellent drinks, and a lovely casual vibe. Bar staff are lovely (Nat is the best), and this place easily has the best toilet graffiti and stickers in Newcastle. Oh, and really good caipiriñhas.

Brilliant service from start to finish. Met outside by a lovely young lady, taken to a table and looked after for the entire time we were here. Could not recommend enough!!

A great bar to visit that sells nice food and the cocktails are great too.

Love this bar. So chilled. Lovely for a quiet drink with friends in a nice atmosphere. Building is really cool and quirky.

Had Chicken and Chiozo pasta here for lunch for Chancellar Rishi Sunak’s Eat Out to Help Out scheme with my mum. The staff was lovely here. The outside seating was lovely here. The Chicken and Chiozo pasta was very tasty. My mum has the Goat’s cheese and roasted vegetables wrap with chips which was very tasty. I would recommend the chicken and chiozo pasta and Goat’s cheese and roasted vegetables wrap for anyone coming here.

I love the outside area at this place if te weather is nice.

This is a great little bar. Serves great food, perfect for pre match food. Good ales well kept. Plenty of variety.

Nice place, I think you can improve the quality of the food.

One of my favourite bars in the toon..not sure why although maybe as it's very friendly and chilled oot..

Good place to have a drink, food smelled wonderful, did not have any as was going to a different place to eat

Quirky and fun place to be. Food smelt amazing. Good range of drinks.

We visited here during the busy Christmas shopping period and found it to be a welcome oasis of calm! I had a delightful espresso martini and we shared a perfect pile if nachos. Couldn’t fault the place!

Staff pleasent but very quiet not much atmosphere may be different when busy

En route to St James Park found this place by chance, what a gem, drinks very reasonable price but the food stole the show, to be fair was not expecting much as just thought more ‘pub grub’ but far from it, all cooked very well and the hummus was brilliant, will definitely visit again

Great bar with good well priced scran and beer

It was fine, but still pretty meh.

Lush food, cheap and great place 👍

Awesome, quirky bar, with a great selection of beer and spirits! Very reasonably priced, such as two cocktails for £10, I had an espresso martini which was very tasty. The sort of place you could go for a cozy drink or a more lively session. I noticed they offered food, including a good variety of vegan options. Staff very friendly!

The best bar in the city, cozy with so many events during the week.

The staff are amazing. The menu doesn’t state certain things contain cheese. With being Dairy intolerant this can cause issues and did. When I went to the toilet due to ingesting dairy I was Horrified to find the Men’s toilet door barely shut and when it did it has gaping gaps other people can see straight through.

Large portion of calamari was nice

Went to Bar Loco, great vibe, Dj's on the decks in the upstairs bar, superb tunes and wonderful staff...I like this place. Did not eat there, but plan to. Menu and food looked top notch!!! Looking forward to my next visit.

Friendly staff and very good value food.

A great, quirky bar with a great choice of food and tapas (and cheap too!). The staff are relaxed and friendly and it’s very close to St James’s metro.

Called in for a quick drink while out walking and got to say what a great place, decided to have a little snack also with a 2nd drink. Staff great and food excellent. Definitely worth a stop off.

"Excellent training and advice on nutrition from all the instructors

Petit à l intérieur, très agréable à l'extérieur et à voir son premier étage c'est la belle surprise.

Great locatation, nice drinks, unique atmosphere and friendly staff.

Great atmosphere, delicious pizzas.

Great drink selection, food was extremely tasty and very reasonabley priced. Staff were really welcoming, helpful and friendly. Outside area is one of the best on the city for a sunny day.

Excellent place downstairs No access other levels for wheelchair
