About
Welcome to the roaring 20's! Home of cool jazz and cabaret. A world of slick style and hard liquor! Prohibition Cabaret Bar is the award winning home of all things entertainment for performers and audiences alike. Built specifically to provide a stage for variety, cabaret, music hall and vaudeville acts from the region and beyond for audiences far and wide. Not to mention our fully equipped private hire facilities. Prohibition was moved from the original railway arch premises - lock, stock and two oak-smoked barrels, to the former Jazz Cafe premises of Newcastle's famous Pink Lane in January 2019. Why don't you come on in and join us! ~ Mitch

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

I have been to this venue many times just for a drink or to see the great love music and entertainment and am never disappointed.
I also have friends that have booked the upstairs for a party and it's been equally fabulous. The staff and facilities are great.
Whilst I love coming here with family and friends I feel equally welcome (and very safe) going alone which is a rarity for a woman these days.
Definitely recommend

A Newcastle gem. Amazing little venue with great atmosphere and friendly staff that always seems to have something interesting on from live music to burlesque.

An amazing high end bar and venue with a very friendly atmosphere. Dog friendly too and the monthly hound clubs are well worth a visit. Nothing is too much trouble for the lovely staff and the entertainment is excellent. Drinks are reasonable priced, the facilities are second to none and it's in an excellent location. Well worth a visit.

We hired the upstairs room for a private party and had a brilliant time.
It's a fantastic room, with private toilets for your party, a well-stocked and excellently staffed bar in the room, and the team couldn't do enough to help with access on both the day of, and the day after a party.
It was fantastic experience, we had a themed party but you could just as easily use the room for standard hire. Can't recommend it enough

Absolutely love this bar! The friendliest door and bar staff in town, which makes such a difference on a busy Friday or Saturday night! The staff here are amazing. The atmosphere inside the bar is wonderful- welcoming, jumping, always a great little jazz or cabaret act, and always a great night out. I would highly, highly recommend Prohibition Cabaret Bar if you're looking for a night out in Newcastle City Centre with a swing!

We booked Prohibition for a private birthday party upstairs and honestly could not recommend enough. From start to finish everyone was so helpful and accommodating. The venue itself is just absolutely beautiful, the space was perfect in every way. Communication from Doug in the run up to the event was spot on. Value for money was incredible. The staff are honestly an absolute credit to this place, especially Alex & Daniel who were on the bar for us upstairs - absolutely lush people and so kind & helpful. Thank you so much ❤️

My husband and I visited here 11th June 21 at about 6:30pm. It was very quiet (I think only 1 other table occupied) and there was no atmosphere!! We ordered what seemed like a good offer on cocktails (2 for £8) but they just tasted like apple juice, no hint of alcohol whatsoever (very disappointed). Overall not a good experience.

Hi
Is this linked with Adonis Cabaret ? Thanks

Thanks for your question Beth. Prohibition is a completely independent venture in the North of England, we are not affiliated with any other venue. Mind you, Adonis Cabaret sounds very interesting! Mitch
