The staff were lovey and so helpful and I had the most delicious cocktail ever which was a happy ever after. This was followed up by a strong but not forgotten which was delicious also. I would strongly recommend this place for a good drink and it offers sessions to attend cocktail making classes.

We absolutely loved this bar. It's the first time we have visited and we will definitely be going back. We had family up from down south, and we had been showing them different bars around Newcastle, so we had a drink in each, but this bar is the only one that we decided to stay in. They had a live singer on unfortunately I can't remember her name but she's in my photos and she made the atmosphere fantastic. Keep up the good work.

I stumbled upon this unique place tonight when I was with friends - thinking it was just another bar before I entered I was amazed by the interiors and feel of the place. I felt like I’d stepped into a sailor’s 1800’s vortex - I LOVED IT! Ordering a Spicy margarita and a Orange Margarita (Margarita Mondays) they were brilliant and so we later ordered a second drink (more margaritas!) The bar wasn’t too busy with a chilled vibe about the place, with an attentive bar lady named Emma- was perfect for a casual Monday drink. Think I have found my new favourite bar! Affordable, good location, tasty and unique atmosphere 10/10.

We popped in on Saturday afternoon for a couple of drinks, we got a cocktail from the menu “Singapore Sling” sat back down and it had an overwhelming taste of gingerbread, I spoke to a staff member who said he would take it away, a few moments later I presume the manager or assistant manager came over to our table and said the drink is correct and just looked at me as if to say that is that, no offer of an apology or refund or another drink, I just looked and thought ok?… then I went to the bar and ordered half a beer and the same person served me and looked at me and charged me £3.20 for the drink. Need coaching in customer service. A change of drink would have sufficed.

I had a wonderful time at Colonel Porter's Emporium, a 1920s-themed restaurant and bar on Dean Street. The place is full of charm and character, with a botanical garden, a secret disco, a rhum and gin bar, and a tavern of wonders. The staff were very friendly and attentive, and the food and drinks were delicious. I especially enjoyed the vintage cocktails and the lobster. The atmosphere was lively and fun, and I felt like I was transported to another era. I would highly recommend Colonel Porter's Emporium to anyone looking for a unique and memorable experience in Newcastle.

Update 21/11/23 weekends have become so fun here since live musics started. Dance floor is so much better here for the mint music and intimate settings. Tunes after acts are done are mint too. We were dancing till 1am I think! Hope Tim Gambles is brought back more, he's something special! Brilliant open mic night here on Tuesdays. Lush staff and brilliant service. The pictures speak for themselves - the vibe here is excellent, quirky and interesting. Great playlist too. Think mid week evenings here will become a regular for me - felt so relaxed here. Recommend!

What a cool bar!!! The interior decoration is gorgeous - so many interesting things to look at and amazing for anyone into the Victorian aesthetic. Super comfortable seating as well. And great drinks in my opinion! I got the Butterbeer Halloween cocktail which I thought was delicious. Caution if you don't like sweet drinks- my partner doesn't and we found that there literally wasn't a single thing on the menu that didn't have sugar syrup 😅 but if dessert cocktails are your thing (they are mine!) And if you don't like strong spirity-flavored drinks (I don't!), then you'll love this place
