“We are very much looking forward to see our customers enjoy a few cocktails and oysters in our new outdoor bar.

“This is just a rough idea of what it will look like upon completion. We’re working hard behind the scenes to make it sure it is perfect.

“We will keep you all updated on our progress with this.”

The restaurant’s oysters were recently given the seal of approval by South Shields-born Rosie Ramsey, who hosts the successful podcast Sh**ged, Married, Annoyed with her husband, comedian Chris Ramsey.
