What a cracking venue!!! Loved our night here, small and intimate. Front row at the bar is the best seat in the house - discovering the wonders of a diverse and tasty spirit shelf. Friendly and knowledgeable staff - a must for all cocktail enthusiasts

What a fantastic hidden bar! No glary advertising, no neon signs, great atmosphere and fantastic use of second hand lamps, screen doors and flowing candle wax to escape with a special person or small group. Great selection of drinks too. Glad we stumbled upon this place!

Terrific funky little cocktail bar. We've heard about it and been meaning to get in. We weren't disappointed. Great drinks with a good selection. The gyoza was amazing.

Great hidden gem nestled in the heart of Newcastle. The ambience exudes a charming and funky vibe that instantly captivates. The staff members are incredibly friendly. Our mocktails were simply delicious. My only suggestion would be to expand the selection of bar food options as there is only three at the moment. Nonetheless, it's definitely a place worth visiting!

Best cocktails in Newcastle! We did a cocktail making class and cannot speak highly enough of our experience. The cocktails were amazing and staff were knowledgeable, friendly and couldn't do enough for us. We didn't get to try the Gyoza but the cheese / meat platters served during the class were the perfect touch. We will most certainly be back!

Just saying.

Love KTs. In my opinion it's the best cocktail bar in Newcastle. Perfect for a quiet get to know you date or drinks with a small group of friends before or after going out. Staff are friendly and experts at their trade and will happily explain what's going on with the drinks if you're curious about how they make their magic.
