Charlie's Bar in South Tyneside

Visited on a whim with a friend after seeing the 3 for £10 cocktail sign outside. An absolutely beautiful interior, very friendly, polite and helpful staff. You can mix and match the cocktails which arrived quickly and high quality. Then after 5pm there is an complimentary cheese board which is amazing and of the highest quality and standard. I do not understand how the place wasn't packed. Cocktail deals and free cheese my idea of heaven. Would highly recommend.

You have to pay to park your car at this restaurant, the restaurant could be a lot nicer , staff ok, food not up to a good standard in our opinion, tables need to be cleaner ,toilets an absolute disgrace we are just coming out of covid for heavens sake clean up your act,

Service slow as the place was busy. They'd put a band on and hadn't catered staffing wise for the amount of business they received

Beautiful hotel and setting shame there was dirty tables food on the floor rubbish bags left near the breakfast food dirty cups left on tables outside and big issue of being locked in the hotel no staff or access to phone as signal non existent and staff forgot to leave emergency phone out only way out we had was a key we were given to unlock the emergency exit on to the beach We told to ring the manager if there was an emergency but we couldn’t have done with not having the emergency phone Didn’t eat in the restaurant as it was very expensive and what we saw being served to other people in the restaurant didn’t look appetising

First time i have been in for a while and was pleasantly surprised. Was busy, friendly atmosphere, bar staff excellent, good choice of beers. Prices are comparable to any other pub in the area. Will return.
