Newcastle

Nights out are great - cheap and cheerful, there's always something fun to do. However Newcastle probably isn't your best bet if you want a specific DJ or mindblowing events, bigger cities like Birmingham/Leeds/Manchester may be better. However for an easy, fun, cheap night out it really is one of a kind. The locals are lovely, it feels like there's a slight town/gown divide but that's more the fault of the students to be honest. If you're into shopping Eldon Square has everything you need, not really my thing but there are also great vintage clothes shops etc off the beaten track. Grainger Market is a great stop off point for organic food.

Newcastle is a great city, made entirely suitable for students! Two central universities with a a indoor shopping centre and every shop you could need. Restaurants, pubs and clubs are on every corner, all the way down there the stunning Quayside where the river Tyne is. It has a wide variety of price ranges where you can have a cheap night out in Revs to a fancy meal and cocktails in the Botanist.

The nightlife in Newcastle is arguably one of the best in the country, especially for students. It has a range of night clubs and bars that will ensure everyone with ranging tastes finds something they enjoy. With shopping you're spoilt for choice, Newcastle has plenty of popular shops that people of all ages can explore and find something they want to buy. Although sometimes more on the expensive side, the prices of items or nights out differ from shop to shop or club to club. Many clubs have events on each night which make the prices drop significantly and make for an exciting and interesting evening! Newcastle has something for everybody, and is a wonderful city to be a student in!

Good value for money! Would recommend anyone that is looking to save a bit of money and a bonus for the students too! The taste card is a very good way to get by

Newcastle is an excellent place to live. It's a very friendly city and everything is so cheap! Great for shopping and food/drink, there's always something to do.

Amazing night life, cheap drinks - 3 trebs for a fiver can't go wrong! Everything is so close to each other so no need for a taxi. All shops yu need. Plenty of shops. Great people just can't understand the accent

Overall Newcastle is a very enjoyable place, mostly due to the great shopping experience from Eldon square. Apart from shopping it is a pleasant place to be with a welcoming community with lots of spirit. There are lots of parks for families to enjoy also.

Such a small, compact city - everything is within walking distance. Therefore I don't spend any money on travel costs i.e. to and from uni/work/town. I love how both universities are in the city centre and are so close together, it makes for a very student friendly city. There's also loads of restaurants to choose from which is good for foodies.

Wonderful city all round. Friendly, welcoming and vibrant. Always something going on for whatever your needs are.

There will always be great value for money in the north east, but that doesn't mean quality is low. Newcastle offers the best nights out, plenty of shops and restaurants in every area.

Amazing city with lovley people and and loads of shops. Eldon square is super handy and the transport makes it so easy to get everywhere. Christmas lights are pretty and the Christmas markets too.

The nights out are always generally good due to the fast paced environment and variety of different bars available within the city centre. Eldon square and Northumberland street also have a massive variety of different shops, great for students as it's close to both universities so I can go and shop there after a lecture if I need anything. The quayside by the River provides great scenes to sit in restaurants and have food and also has a market on most Sunday's.

Not just a party city. Obvs Newcastle is known for being the best night out and one of the cheapest. But it is also home to culture and beauty too! The sage, biscuit factory and Baltic are all iconic homes of art in different forms. The sage is a vessel for music and other live performances and the latter two are art museums. The choice of restaurants is amazing so many great places to eat.

I love Newcastle as a university city- it has a great university, perfect size, great fun, lots of places where to go? Lots of shop Just a bit cold

Great nightlife Friendly people Fun social events Good sports teams Newcastle united games in premier league Great atmosphere

Newcastle is such a lovely city. There Is so much to do especially for students with so many bars and clubs there is so much variety in where to go out. All the locals are very friendly and although it's a bit cold there is always a good vibe.

Newcastle is a vibrant city with a great nightlife and is excellent for a shopping trip. The transport could be improved, particularly the metro but this is made up for with brilliant entertainment including at the theatre royal. There are excellent restraurants to choose from including the more pricey Miller and Carter or for a cheaper experience there is plenty of options in Eldon square.

So vibrant, accessible and lively! A great student city that is full of life and so easy to get around. Everything you need all in one place, and a fabulous array of choices of shops and restaurants.

Newcastle is a brilliant city. There is so much to do during the day and the night. There are student nights that allow us to do fun activities for a lot cheaper. Things that we probably wouldn't do if it wasn't discounted like mini golf or bowling. The night life is great, there are so many places to go and a lot of them are free entry, plus you always feel safe on a night. Everything is in walking distance so there is little need to pay for transport and it's a nice walk through the city. There are lots of towns nearby like tynemouth which is lovely for a day out. The shopping is great along with the food and nice places to go for drinks.

Newcastle is a fun city for a night out! But once you've done it, you've done it all. You will be going to the same nights over and over, but if you enjoy them then that's fine. There's unfortunately no Zara in the centre of town and getting out to the metro centre via bus/train is a bit of a pain just to see what's new. Fenwicks is good. Not many others. There are a LOT of chain restaurants, i'd Like to know a bit more about the independent ones but as of yet they're not advertised as much, other than down by the quayside. I'd like there to be more in town. Student vibes are great, everyone is young and fun and up for a laugh. Can't understand the accent lol.

An excellent city that has everything a student needs within walking distance. There are so many places to eat and new food to try for reasonable prices. The nightlife is pretty diverse with a range of bars and clubs to suit any preference. The student nights can be cheap for drinks too. The city centre shopping is great with the metro centre also being very close by.

Nights out are always good as it is busy every night of the week. Shopping is also very good for clothes however it would be better if there were more affordable grocery shops.

Newcastle is the best city for students. Everythings from universities to shopping and clubbing are all really close and you can easily walk to all of them. No need for taxis or underground at all.

In Eldon square there are fahsion shops like Topshop, RiverIsland New look, Misselfridge, Levis, All saints and many more. There is also a huge department of Fenwicks where you can find high-end brands like Tommy Hilfiger, Calvin Klein etc. Perfume shops electronic shop anything you need is in Eldon square! Eldon square consists a lot of buildings that are all conected to each other. One of the buildings has restaurants like Frankies& Bennys, Ask italian, TGI Fridays, Nandos, wagamama, tapas tortilla and many more. There are also starbucks, nero, costa etc. Bars you should go in Newcastle is Botanist which also plays lovely live music and has amazing interior design and great cocktails. Alchemists is onether bar you should go. There are plenty more that I haven't yet tried so dont worry. Clubs : we have tiger tiger which plays different music in every room and its a 2 floors huge club. Tup Tup Palace club plays great rnb music and has really cheap drinks. There are many more that i dont remember names. Overall Newcastle has the best student life!
