Yahoo News Newcastle has a 'hidden' bar that's open until 3am seven nights a week
IT's seen by many as the 'best bar' in Newcastle but it's still a place that many Geordies and visitors to the city have yet to freqwuebnt, because you can't actually see it from the street.
We are of course talking about No.28, the city centre haunt that is open until 3am every night of the week, was one of the first places in town to ever do a bottomless brunch and has now earned a great reputation for its Sunday dinners.
Long before other places caught onto the fact that all many people in Newcastle need of a Saturday afternoon is unlimited fizz and some decent scran, No.28 were one of the pioneers of the bottomless brunches, with their bookings going through the roof in 2016, as more and more people wanted to fill their boots with unlimited prosecco.
Over the years, No.28 has also been famous for its many themed quizzes, testing customers' knowledge of everything from girl groups to The Office and Harry Potter to Sex and the City. The layout of the Nelson Street bar, which can only be accessed by a door just inside one of the entrances to the Grainger Market, is like no other in Newcastle.
