Excellent venue, good and cheap beer and very friendly staff. Now open longer and more days which is great.

Great local beer and knowledgeable staff

Incredible place. Great staff who really look after you. Great beers, Alchemy Brew knows how to innovate.

What a fabulous venue for a party! Their team kept everything running so soothly,, too.

Really unique spot, if a bit hidden. Had a grand time at the Big Gay Quiz and would love to stop by again. Try the cider if you go !

Visited for a private do. Ideal for this event. Staff were great and the beer excellent.

Our first visit today😊 it won’t be our last, what a lovely bar/ venue. Fabulous staff & brewed beers. Give it a try you won’t be disappointed.

An amazing venue with live music and ales brewed on the premises. Geordie Paul Green guardian amazon kindle

We thought there was food so went early before the band to find out that they don't do food. I was very disappointed and had to walk to the garage for a Sandwich as I'm diabetic and needed food.

My first time here, 'I Work & I Work' IPA £4.00 and a good pint, can't complain at that. Will be back at some point as it looks a good place though it's out of my normal geographical range.

Excellent venue for real house brood bear and live music.

Brewery, bar and venue. You can get beer straight from the Brewing vat so can't get fresher than that! Great atmosphere for a gig.

Great taproom/brewer. Cool space, friendly service and great beers.

Great place for a drink and some music. Amazing beers, and lovely and dog friendly!!

Top ales fantastic staff great mix of customers makes a lush place to have a drink👌👌👌

Brilliant beers and excellent knowledge on what to try.

Amazing. Probably my favourite place now. Great beers, lovely staff, very pleasant place, not too loud, there is music in the background but you can actually have a conversation there without developing tinnitus and sore throat.

Friendly staff, welcoming to everyone including our small child. Very nice and reasonably priced beer. Will definitely be back for future events :-)

One of the best places to have a pint in Newcastle. Great Northern Alchemy beer, friendly staff and a welcoming atmosphere.

A Coal Yard that sells beer, what's not to like (dosen't sell much coal though).

What a great place and staff are amazing and friendly place, can't wait to go back.

This is a fantastic space, friendly staff and all round inviting vibe.

A great space to chill and enjoy Northern Alchamy beer. Friendly staff and tasted some awesome beer straight from the brewery tanks.

Nothing could possibly be improved about this place - just… awesome ❤️

Good selection of interesting beers, but very loud due to high ceiling and hard surfaces (it was a warehouse or light industrial unit in a former life). Sit outside if you can!

Very nice place, atmosphere of a provincial brewery and excellent beer, very nice service, I highly recommend it 👍

Went here for the first time last night and the staff were so friendly and welcoming!! Loved the atmosphere and the sanitary products in the toilet were a cute touch, will be coming back asap!

Very lively (Friday evening) warm, friendly and a fabulous choice of beers

Great beer, great prospects for this place 🍻🍻🍻

Social with my Taichi and Qigong students. According to my students the beers are goooood 😊

Awesome atmosphere.. amazing interior. Good beers. Happy beautiful people all around.

The ceilings are so high it's almost like being outdoors, for those of you trying to stay healthy. Great live performance venue. I'm told the beer is great too, and they brew it there.

Loved it! Atmosphere was perfect! Beers were amazing, especially the raspberry milkshake one! Delicious! I wish I could have a place like this around the corner!!

Called in for a few cheeky pints with the wife and ended up leaving with a mini Keg. Thought it was COOL, loved the seating table arrangement. If you've not been, your missing out.

Great beer and a nice little seating area to enjoy it.

Love the Old Coal Yard - It's been my go to through the pandemic cos they've been so welcoming and safe all the way through, but last night we held our reunion party there. After an 18 month wait to see all my pals in one place, it couldn't have been more perfect. Great ale, music and atmosphere! Thanks team OCY

Great selection of beer and other drinks. Really friendly welcome and felt very safe with all the covidmeasures in place. We tried four different beers all of which were delicious.

Lovely independent venue with kind staff and warm atmosphere! My favourite place to drink, for sure!

Fantastic beer and INCREDIBLE service. We sat outside on a hot day and we’re offered free sun screen and water. Absolute gem of Newcastle.

Very friendly and unique place to drink. And very considerate that they offered everyone sitting outside sun protection lotion. Extremely friendly would definatley visit again

Wonderful and unique place for a beer. Serving exceptional Ales from Northern Alchemy. They also did cans / mini kegs for collection during lockdown which was an absolute godsend. Always impressed by the staff and reasonable prices.

I love this place more than I love pickles and quiche.

An amazing find, a lovely space with a great selection of beers and friendly staff. Really impressed with the covid safety measures in place here.

Beautiful brewery, fantastic place to enjoy a drink. Always a friendly atmosphere.

Excellent beer, nice open space, lovely staff. Very pleased with the Covid measures taken, well ventilated but not cold inside, will definitely come back.

This place is a MASSIVE hidden gem. With string light bulbs everywhere and candles on the tables, we spent a cosy evening enjoying great beer, whilst watching the rain pour down outside the big warehouse doors. It was grand! There's been a LOT of consideration regarding all things covid, which is always reassuring. It also helps that they have that huge warehouse door opening as an entrance too, lots of fresh air!

Greatest discovery in newcastle, the Norwegian lager is great. Amazing hospitable staff. Would fully recommend for a great night

Excellently thought out, welcoming space. Beautiful, cosy touches that make an industrial building more comfortable. Really subtle but comforting safety measures and social distancing procedures. Table service and friendly staff! And of course, such a fine selection of beers.

Takeaway mini beer kegs. The beer from Northern Alchemy is excellent. Great service, very friendly. Can't wait to go back when they're open for parties again!

Came here with my fiancee and her family for a quick drink. The place is basically a micro brewery that sells alcohol (funnily) and lunches, bacon rolls and some great hangover cure drinks (see photos!). Very rustic feel to it being in a warehouse but pleasant enough. Had a live band playing when we came too. The choice of food was okay being vegetarian we didn't have much to chose although they mentioned this will improve shortly with decent coffees etc. Friendly dece by staff and well I come back, worth a visit just to see an alternative to all the "old man pubs" and annoying posers bars.
