• Wine Bar • Newcastle upon Tyne
Booked 9 times today
Part wine bar, part restaurant, a city centre venue with a city centre buzz. St. Vincent is an after-work drinks spot, supper-with-friends place and general 'snack-with-a-glass-or-two' hang out with a big-hearted 'everybody welcome' attitude. Inspired by the neighbourhood bars we've found on our travels through France and Italy, we offer interesting wines, charcuterie and crowd pleasing plates full of punchy flavours. We're a place where an hour spins into several without anyone noticing. Open evenings Tuesday to Friday, all day Saturday and close late. Enough said. Come and find out.

    We regularly dine at St Vincent’s and always receive a warm welcome, excellent food and attentive service. Even though it was extremely busy we still received a high standard of service and good quality food. It’s not cheap but you get what you pay for. If you are looking for a relaxed but vibrant atmosphere, interesting food, a huge range of wines and a good night out with family, friends or colleagues this is the best place in Newcastle for a good night out. Thank you to all the staff.
