About this space

Treat your guests to a night of mystery and intrigue in Newcastle’s best-kept secret. Hidden in plain sight, find your way to the forgotten Lair of Dr. Sinclair with only an innocent plaque on the wall to giveaway its existence.

Perks include both private toilets and a private bar, manned by our expert mixologists. The fixed booths provide ample seating for up to 120 guests, and with an independent sound system, you have control over the soundtrack to your night. Request one of our resident DJs from £50ph, be the master of your own playlist, or let us know what genre captivates you and let us set one to suit.
