As a student in Newcastle I had many great nights on the town which ivariably began at Flynns. Its location on the Quayside means that it is a good starting point from where you can begin your voyage of discovery around the rest of the bars. Cheap trebles and a good cocktail list as well as beers on tap mean that there is something for every drinker-apart from the real ale buffs - Flynns is in 3 sections. As you work up the stairs there is the main bar with stools by the window so you can look at the Tyne rushing past as you begin your journey to alcoholic oblivion. There is also a downstairs bit where there are more seats. Upstairs is a similar story. Flynns is usually quiet enough during the week to be a good place to strat a lads night out or alternatively take a companion of the opposite sex. At weekends it does get crammed and the cheap trebles make it a haunt for those more at home in the Bigg market. A trip to Flynns at around tea time on a Bank Holiday is also a must as it plays host to the finest examples of the Geordie stereotypes: the lairy group of lads and the scantily clad ladies all out of their heads on Whitley BAy spirit.
