Newcastle offers a lot of amazing restaurants spread across the city. Many agree that the best ones are the restaurants with outdoor seating, especially now that everyone is out here trying to enjoy the sun as much as they can.

Bonbar definitely deserves its reputation as the best outside seating in Newcastle. Located in the heart of the city, Bonbar is a three-in-one spot: restaurant, bar and late lounge. It is in the iconic assembly rooms building but has a spacious outside area, overlooking the old town city centre. At just 10 minutes walk from Newcastle central station, this place offers a variety of food and events, from their traditional Sunday lunch to the afternoon tea. All enjoyable from the outside seating facing the sun. The weekends at Bonbar are considered a huge thing as it becomes a club in the late lounge area.
