Interesting location under bridge arches with good atmosphere with live music 🎶

What better place is there to spend a Saturday afternoon listening to good music with a chilled cider. Great staff Great music Sit inside or out. Heaters for when it gets chilly.

A bit quiet on a Thursday night but staff were great, ice tea selection marvellous and price matched it. Nice little place for a drink.

So much fun! Bands are always amazing and staff serve quickly.

Visited on Thursday 15th August at the end of a very long day and the staff were amazing. Really friendly, helpful and informed. And finished off the night with the most delicious glass of water I've eveer drank. Cheers!

Played with band cutloose, great event sound guy brilliant Great venue for live music

Called in for a drink on the Saturday afternoon with friends and family. The place and the whole area was bouncing with people. A great place for drinks and a friendly atmosphere all around.

Nice bar that is located under the bridge arch, bar has good selection of beers and live music.

Banging little venue, mint staff and live music

Excellent Sunday afternoon gig ! Bar staff Excellent and friendly No food at the time we went though But Excellent just to listen to some good music

A great venue. Good range of cast and draught ales. A good atmosphere. Friendly and efficient staff

We were on a stag do, didn't eat just drank .

Brilliant pub! Live music, loads of atmosphere. Worth a visit

Great venue for live music . Fab atmosphere!

Relaxed atmosphere Great band's on at weekends Well worth a vist

espresso martini was 5/6 foam, so i go ask for a replacement since there is practically no liquid. bartender charges me for the re -pour, which has significantly less liquid. i’ve been here a few times and i am disgusted with how i was ignored

Like going back in time, great drinks. I absolutely loved the bourbon and watched the cash cows absolutely mortal. Great night.

Excellent for live music, friendly staff and huge selection of Whisky and Bourbons. Always a happy and friendly, lively environment.

Had a really good bank holiday here like and Austin were great and very welcoming

absolutely love this bar me and my friend called in Saturday 25th May first time brilliant atmosphere freindy live entertainment was excellent 👌 definitely will be back very soon

Drinks, ordered pizza in, live music and a fantastic atmosphere.

What a cool place, Visited first sunday in May, place was good and busy with live music and loads of fruendly people. Had a seruously fun day out.

A vibrant, fun night with a wide range of age groups all having a blast

Great party atmosphere. Great entertainment .Great night 👍

What a fabulous place. Had no idea where it was but once found never forgotten. Will definitely go back.

Great venue. I haven't been as a customer, but they do give me (well, my bandleader) gigs and they treat their musicians very well. The drinks are nice and the whiskey mashes are delicious. They have lots of regular live entertainment and the place is jumping when people are on proper nights out.

Classy French bistro with impeccable service. Perfect for a romantic dinner à deux.

Great bunch of lads behind the bar. Happy to tell you about the selection of whisky

Great place, wonderful atmosphere. Staff are fantastic and really made my visit. I can't wait to return.

Lush atmosphere, music and cocktails, even better staff. 100% recommend!

Kasim Was a lovely bouncer so respectful and kind!! Lovely bar staff! Overall great experience

It's cool. I guess it's just not my sort of atmosphere for personal taste a little dark quite crammed up but I can see how others may enjoy this sort of atmosphere

Went on Sunday afternoon (visiting from N Ireland). We were looking to go to see a live band and found this place. It’s really quirky, the band were great, loved it. I tried the Moonshider, cider and moonshine, tasted of apples and cinnamon, very tasty 🤤

an amazing bartender and very lovely atmosphere!

Had a great time. First time. Had drinks only. Cash cows band was on then dj Good times

Class bar! Always fun time to be had! Live music is always good here! And always free to see it!

Great little bar, small stage in one corner, great spot in the heart of the Ouseburn Delta.

Used to be arch 2, better now.....wide selection of drinks. Friendly staff. Its like a small American bar taken straight out of a film. Vist and you'll be impressed. Sensible prices for this day. Bud on tap was soooooo good.....

Nice spot, great music, good atmosphere. Friendly barman and locals very nice too

Unreal bar with great staff and awesome atmosphere! 10/5!

Great location, great bar, amazing live music and always friendly service! Big shout out to Luke!!

Just the atmosphere you want when heading out for drinks

Great place drinks on flow with moonshine and great music and very clean and staff are amazing will visit again Tim and Ashley are great staff

Brilliant venue great music and can’t praise Luke the GM enough.

This place is the beating heart of the Ouseburn. Get yourself down for picklebacks and pints aplenty.

When a hero comes along with the strength to carry on

I found the wheelchair access good the atmosphere was great live music was fantastic. Bar staff friendly and helpful Tim and Ashleigh . I will definitely come back in the New year .

Great bar on the ouseburn with a canny selection of drinks.

Great band fabulous atmosphere excellent Christmas eve 😍

staff, drinks, band and vibes were incredible ❤️

Oozing with a great boozy atmosphere, fantastic lighting, great music and splendid ale. Ellen on the bar was beyond stella with her service and pint pouring. will be back for sure x

Incredible place to visit, with a wide selection of drinks on offer and live bands that will blow your socks off. This venue just goes from strength. Ive heard they’ve had a change in management since September (good!) and I didn’t think it was possible to get any better but it certainly has! If I was wearing a cap I would doff it to the industrious and convivial staff that operate behind the bar. Just amazing. They’ve made me fall in love with Pickle juice so much that I’ve even asked my family for a jar for Christmas! 🤞 (PS also Great lighting in there)

Fantastic little venue with some great live music on whenever I've been on the weekends. Great selection of original drinks and cocktails to match the theme of the bar and prices are good as well. They've even got a happy hour on from like 4-8pm every day of the midweek too! It's fantastic value and makes it my favourite place to go in Ouseburn.

I’m really lucky to have Billy’s opposite to where I work. We go in often and the staff are always brilliant! The atmosphere is great, nice levels of music so you’re not shouting at each other. The range of drinks is extensive, 100% recommend an espresso martini. Food is always fast and really tasty! Try and get in for some love music it’s a brilliant location for a band! Thanks for the brilliant service last night, 100% started my Christmas break with a bang!

Great relaxed vibe and menu perfect just what you need to soak up the beers.Staffing matches the friendly relaxed atmosphere would highly recommend!

Service was disgusting. The blond haired women behind the bar told me at 11.45 she couldn't serve me a can of schofferhoffer becuase they were closing. I would not have minded at all being a worker in retail but continued to serve 7 people after me. I was upset and felt left out and discriminated against! Horrible!

Better than the old Billy Bootleggers needed a space as big as this the whole time. Great music,drink and atmosphere. Go here instead of the centre of town. Was a deal on too 35 percent off to 20 percent mon-fri before 8pm. I'm still here on last Friday before Xmas paying way less than near by bars.

Great atmosphere, super fast service and great drinks selection! Will definitely be coming back.

Atmosphere is incredible in here. Great live music. Fantastic drinks and great offers. The staff make this place. I suggest you all get down for live music and great Bevs all night long! Billy's for life!!

Always a great vibe, mint scran, special mention to Luke for always recommending the best cocktails

Great bar, selection of drinks is on point and the vibes even better

Sexiest bartenders in Newcastle work there. Get yourselves down for £5 pound Long Islands and some moonshine! Best bar in Ouseburn

We just had beers but loved the music, the atmosphere and the friendly service.

Great pub. Lovely staff and great music.

Glass collector is piff and said he'd give us a 10er

Cracking little boozer, have lost count of the many brilliant bands we've watched here. Good service too(especially Ashleigh, sorry Lee, but she's our favourite 🤣😘)

Great little pub with plenty of real alè on tap The Wonka Willy beer tasted lovely

Had a shot of pickle juice and whisky, followed by dancing around to live music. What more could a growing boy need?

Great service from excellent friendly staff - 5 star

My favourite place in Ouseburn. Cool venue, great atmosphere and top staff

They have a great selection of drinks at reasonable prices. Bar staff are always friendly and outdoor seating (with heaters!!) is available. If you're in the Ouseburn area it's definitely worth a visit.

Me n my sister came in and were served by the lovely Luke, amazing service and drinks. Also played banger after banger

Absolutely brilliant atmosphere! Staff were second to non and were super helpful with ordering food as 1 of our party has allergies. Would 100% recommend :)

Had an amazing experience what can I say big thank you to Lee for deep conversations of vinyls music and so forth. Credit to himself and the business. See you all soon

Absolutely quality little venue. Outstanding service from the staff, and the moonshine is to die for!

Fabulous place with great entertainment and lovely staff.

Billy's is a gem in the crown of the Ouseburn Valley. It's a top venue for drinks, food and live events! It's been great to get down there on a week day out of the hustle and bustle of town for the football on the big projector and screens. The food and kitchen is amazing! I've had the spicy beef burritos a few times and it's always so tasty and with good chips. Bar staff are friendly and know their stuff when it comes to drinks. You should definitely give it a go!

Great atmosphere, better bar staff and picklebacks. I know where I’m spending my Saturdays!

Amazing addition to the Ouseburn!

Unreal bar, even more unreal staff. Billys is me nectar 🤘

Good vibes, good beers, what more could you want ❤️

Brilliant friendly atmosphere recommend to go

Great pub very friendly staff especially lee Cannot do enough great atmosphere too love it x

Kind, friendly and helpful staff excellent food and entertainment definitely go again

We had a lovely night. Good music, good food and great atmosphere.

Excellent place to enjoy the evening

Great slice of americana in the heart of Ouseburn! Perfect dive bar style but with the all the modern twists! Bar staff were really knowledgeable, she (ginger girl) helped me pick some moonshine and was super friendly too. Great atmosphere and perfect for a chilled night in the area!!! I can imagine the courtyard section is amazing in the summer with some live music and drinks flowing.

Had a great time in here on a visit to Newcastle! Shout out to the girl with ginger hair (sorry I didn’t catch the name) who made me feel welcome with great service.

Great bar, great drinks. Food is unbelievable. Got chatting to Leo behind the bar. Some boy
