Stack Newcastle has become a powerhouse of its own making in recent years. The popular haunt is better known for its late-night antics and unrivalled street food, but nestled among the exterior units of Stack are an abundant of independent and bustling small retailers - offering the very best in their craft.

This Durham based distillery have chosen to set up shop in the heart of Newcastle, stocking their own range of awardwinning gins alongside other local up and coming brands from across the region. Perhaps personal pampering is on your mind, then Stack is your go to for some brow maintenance, lash extension or a splash of luxurious perfume.

From hardware to dresswear, Stack Newcastle is also home to tailoring service, Golden Stitch. With express alterations at the hands of experienced owner Ali, your garments will be ready and waiting before you’ve even finished that first drink in Stack’s Plaza. New kids on the block, Pods & Salts, have a strong focus on providing the best pod systems, nic-salts and a wide range of CBD products to interested customers. With CBD a growing trend in holistic health and lifestyle, you’ll be sure to find the very best in CBD liquids, bath bombs, face masks and drinks within their unit. They say retail therapy is the best therapy, but that’s before anyone’s had the chance to sample SecretTaart’s selection of cakes and patisserie delights. The love and passion project of Patricia Marques – SecretTaart is renowned for its elegant, luxury edible gifts that leave a lasting memory long after the final bite. And if you’ve room for more, Stack is also home to the UK’s Bubble Tea Kit specialists, Manhua Cha! Created by bubble tea lovers Carine and Dave, their vision was to provide one of a kind, comic themed bubble tea – taking a delicious hidden gem from the streets of China Town and sharing the fun of popping fruity juice balls with all. If bubble tea doesn’t hit the spot, then maybe a shot or two of coffee will. Stack Newcastle’s resident coffee shop, Coffee YOLO, is open everyday bringing you some of the most delicious tray baked treats and most importantly a flat white to knock your socks off. The sister brand of YOLO Townhouse has become a regular favourite for city workers and morning commuters – but the real show stopper is their amazing signature hot chocolates that are perfect for those Instagrammable pics! Every home deserves a touch of greenery, and that’s certainly the main ethos of the mother and daughter duo who have decided to root their brand – Plantopia – within Stack. With a corner, glass-fronted at the bottom of Northumberland St, you’d be easily mistaken for thinking Stack has turned its fingers to a spot of greenhouse gardening. Specialising in indoor plants of all shapes and sizes, the lovely ladies at Plantopia have all the knowledge and care, whether your fingers are green or you’re just starting on your horticulture journey.
