About WonderBar

WonderBar occupies a unit in The Gate on Newgate Street, the leisure complex at the western end of the city centre a few minutes from St James' Park and the Chinatown arch. It trades as a quirky sports and darts bar, with screens for the football, oche space, and a cocktail list, and it draws a steady matchday crowd on the walk between the ground and the centre.

Alongside that it has quietly built a reputation for its Sunday dinner, served from midday with a choice that covers beef, chicken, gammon and a vegan option, in portions that are generous rather than dainty. Tables can be booked online, with a deposit required for larger groups, but it is worth knowing that seating reverts to walk-in only on Newcastle United home matchdays. On any other Sunday, booking ahead is the safer plan.
