The Lock Up in Ouseburn, Newcastle, is drawing comparisons to Ibiza this week as a heatwave brings temperatures in the late 20s Celsius to the North East. The roof terrace, complete with a disco ball, offers a holiday atmosphere just minutes from the city centre.
Heatwave continues across the UK
Weather warnings have been issued for parts of the UK, with temperatures predicted to approach 40 degrees Celsius in London and southern areas. However, the North East is expected to see highs in the late 20s, providing ideal conditions for outdoor dining and socialising.
Newcastle Racecourse is preparing for Plate Day, attracting large crowds, but for those staying closer to town, the Lock Up in Ouseburn has become a popular destination. Ouseburn was recently rated one of the coolest neighbourhoods in the UK.
Detroit Slab Shop pizzas on the terrace
The Lock Up currently hosts Detroit Slab Shop, known for its acclaimed pizzas that are said to taste even better in the sun. The roof terrace is described as one of the best outdoor spaces in the area, with the disco ball adding to the Balearic feel.
According to Simon Duke, What's On Editor for ChronicleLive, the terrace allows visitors to 'catch some rays and dance the night away in Costa Del Tyneside.'
