Initial Reaction: Being that we were unexpectedly staying for the night due to the weather further…read morenorth, through my Yelp search, I found some cocktail lounges to check out. The Botanist was an excellent find when we stayed the night in downtown Newcastle. Located on Monument Mall, you have to up three flights of stairs or take the lift (elevator) to reach the main bar and lounge that has a strong botanical garden theme that is quite beautiful, especially with the location being under a dome. The dome is gorgeous and really enhances the botanical garden and atrium effect. The cocktails are very good as well. I ordered a buttered coconut old fashioned that was quite rich and creamy, but very satisfying with the toasted coconut and butter-washed Makers Mark bourbon with homemade salted honey syrup. My wife enjoyed her Botanist Ultimate Gin & Tonic as we took a table with these plushy lounge chairs. The bartender was fantastic and friendly in making us the cocktails. Really nice guy who made us feel at home. Additionally, they have a rooftop balcony to enjoy the drinks; however, on this evening, it was windy and cold (at least for us Floridians) to where we decided to stay warmer inside. But we would return in a heartbeat.

Best kabobs eve! The peri peri chicken was moist and had tremendous flavor. Incredible atmosphere…read morein the main atrium. Save room for the shared cookie dough; one of the best desserts I've had!

The Brandling Villa is an unassuming looking pub on the corner of a busy road in South Gosforth…read more Once inside though, the pub is anything but unassuming! It's a pub that has its own brewery underneath, serving a wide variety of recognisable commercial beers as well as locally brewed booze. The clientèle might best be described as young, trendy and Hipster, and this is reflected in the decor and the atmosphere. There's regular live music, a giant screen showing movies and board games for punters to play. The pub has a good-sized car park behind it and is Dog and family friendly. Expect to see well-behaved pooches and parents with with buggies during the day. The real highlight of this place is its food though. The menu has awesome locally themed Burgers and "Chips with weird shit on" (the menus description, not mine!) and other fab food. It's pricey (expect to pay between £10 and £13 for a Burger) but my goodness, the portions are huge and the food is delicious! I particularly recommend "Dirty Thoughts of Cheryl Cole". Don't judge before you try it! Lunch for two of us here, including two Burgers and chips, plus a pint and half of local beer, came to £32. Not cheap but a real treat. If you're in the area, you won't regret visiting!

A great local pub, fantastic cask ale and food selection. Very dog friendly, there's always some…read moredogs scattered round. The food is at the simpler end of the spectrum, the burgers are amazing
