Shindig! Amazing night but that 15 years ago

Lol@Paul.

Shindig was awesome but it's not there any more.

I've lived here all my life and used to DJ in Newcastle but it's 5 years since I've been out in town so I'm no use either.

p.s. Most of the best clubs have closed but Digital is worth a look. Depends what you're after but The Gate complex is probably your best bet for a decent night. I'd avoid the Quayside and the Bigg Market as they are both shadows of their former glory.

Oh, and a good alternative for a good night out is Osbourne Road in Jesmond.

Just outside the city centre but some great bars and restaurants with a lot less chavs although slightly more students.

Dan's is a great stop over on a wet night

i went there a couple of years ago on a stagger, we went to the dog racing and the strippers so maybe not the best advice for a girly weekend

Just remember your not allowed to wear much and no jackets

[Mel]

the club Blu bamboo was good last time I was out there (couple years back) and we ended up in a bar called city vaults which wasn't too bad back then but up at the gate you have tiger tiger and pubs like that.

Tuxedo Junction night club, but that was 30 years ago..................

Louise lived in N'cassilll for a year, about 5 years ago; she lived just off Osbourne Rd in Jesmond. There were some decent restaurants (and places to stay). Been too long now, so can't recommend any specifics, but a walk through the city centre will reveal plenty of options, and sights!

I was a regular in Toon - when I lived and worked there many years ago ( 20+ ).

Have had several visits more recently when seeing relatives in the area but none recent enough to offer decent advice . Last time I was there the Quayside was

We also went for a curry, but dont even think about the HELL Curry.
