We asked you where to go (and avoid) on a night out in Newcastle

We can't wait to visit

Nooruddean Choudry

Newcastle is nationally – and internationally – renowned for its unique nightlife.

Much of that is down to the people. The Geordie nation know how to let their hair down and have a good time like few others. But for the non-Newcastle native, where does one go for a rollicking good time in the city – and where should one avoid?

It’s a question we put to you, the Great British public, and as ever you did not let us down. The suggestions were varied and intriguing, complimentary and…less so. Perhaps most interesting were the common sentiments throughout.

Of course there were the predictably bantersome responses…

A very popular suggestion was the Quayside area…

Although not everyone agreed…

Ouseburn was a big hit…

An establishment called ‘Sinners’ got a few mentions…

As did the ‘Black Garter’…

One thing is for sure, there was no shortage of cracking suggestions…
