Visit 5 of the best pubs in Newcastle with a special and unique history on this private guided tour with drinks included in each pub!

Itinerary

    10 minutes

  • N/A

    One of 3 cathedrals in Newcastle (many would say 4 if we include St James Park, home of the legendary Newcastle United) and there only cathedral in Britain named after St Nicholas the inspiration for Santa in the USA though over here we have Father Christmas instead.

    5 minutes

  • N/A

    We will walk through the old cloth market. A street away is the old Groat or wheat market and the famous Bigg Market, originally for Barley. Barley is still much consumed here in its alcoholic form!

    The oldest pub in Newcastle and with infamous Royal patronage.

    30 minutes

    10 minutes

  • N/A

    A fantastic pub near the stage doors to the theatre with a range of over 30 beers and ales.

    Newcastle’s Theatre Royal is one of only 9 Grade I listed theatre halls in England, the city’s theatre is often regarded as the finest theatre building in the country.

    5 minutes

  • Grainger Market

    If your schedule is permitting we will pass through this place of wander and wonder since 1835. Step inside from the streets of Newcastle and experience generations of preserved history within our magnificent Grade I listed building. Meander through history. Wander past the unique and wonder at the unexpected. Shop the handmade, taste the exotic, smell the fresh and experience the exciting. Our historic alleyways are the result of unique characters, exciting cuisines and vibrant cultures fusing together to create an exceptional melting pot of human energy. This is the Grainger Market, the beating heart of Newcastle Upon Tyne.

    10 minutes

    A hidden jewel in Newcastle, this gorgeous old shopping arcade is like nothing else.

    5 minutes

  • Grey's Monument

    One of the symbols of Newcastle, right in the heart of the City.

  • N/A

    Sometimes said to be the second shopping street in Britain after Londons Oxford Street, once the main A1 road between London and Edinburgh

    10 minutes

  • N/A

    This old pub started life as a stables but don't let that put you off. Modest looking on the outside, inside is another matter and it's a grand place to end our pub tour.

Stephan is an absolute gem! This 4 1/2 hour tour was one of the highlights of our two week holiday. With an ample abundance of ale and massive dose of history…this is a fantastic walking tour of Newcastle. Stephan is extremely knowledgeable about European history and has selected a fantastic group of 5 uniquely different pubs. Starting from the beautiful Centurion at the Newcastle Central Station and finished at the elegant City Tavern. Each location has a story…and great beer, ale, cider and cocktail selections. So interesting to learn of Stephan’s family history and books that he has authored. Stephan did a great YouTube video discussing historic battle with “The Red Barron”…his great great great Grandfather won the battle. His tours will book extremely quickly…he told us he had several others from our cruise that were willing to pay him to switch. If his tour is available on the date you are in Newcastle…book it immediately!!!

The best pub tour!

Stephen was the best pub and Newcastle guide we could have asked for! We thought he was going to just show us some cool pubs, new and old. However, Stephen went so much deeper! We learned about Newcastle’s history, culture, each pub’s history, and local sports culture. That doesn’t even scratch the surface to our experience thanks to him. On the logistical side, he had simple instructions on where to meet. He also warned of the hilly nature of the city so that we were prepared for the short hikes between pubs. All in all, we had a phenomenal tour that was quite memorable. We will definitely be contacting Stephen on our return to England in the future! Geordies are so friendly and knowledgeable (unlike a Mackem jk!).
