Newcastle Coach Station is a coach station located in Newcastle upon Tyne. It opened in 2003, as a replacement for the former Gallowgate Coach Station.^[1]^[2]

The coach station is located on Churchill Street, and is a short walk from Newcastle railway station. It is one of three bus stations in the city centre – the others being Eldon Square and Haymarket.

The coach station has five bays, with facilities including a booking office, waiting room, seating and toilet facilities. A taxi rank is available on Churchill Street.^[3] Above the bays is a translucent curved canopy roof, with a glazed block screen wall.

Newcastle Coach Station is served mainly by National Express, however, it is also used by a number of independent operators – including JH Coaches and Wright Bros. of Alston. The station is not served by Megabus, with services instead using a stop on John Dobson Street, adjacent to Newcastle City Library.^[4]
