Alvinos Newcastle is a trendy bar that puts the fun in funky, decorating its premises with old vinyl records, posters, beer coasters and cool industrial style lamps. Complete with pinball machine and football table, this place is a riot of excitement and the most laid back of hang outs. Even the menu is a comic strip, so don't start yawning when you're forced to read a drinks list - there's pretty pictures to entertain.

Alvinos also serves a delicious selection of tasty treats on their diverse menu. Burgers start at £6 and the menu also ranges to stone-baked pizzas and Tex Mex concoctions. And to drink - all cocktails are £6.95 and contain inspired infusions, mixing tequila, vodka, gin, whiskey - any spirit you can dream of - with a variety of fruity, zesty, sweet accompaniments.

An outdoor terrace on the first floor is an added bonus, providing a soothing sun trap on those hazy summer nights. Watch the sunset with a tipple in your hand and soak up the relaxed vibes.
