South Shields pub memories: The South Tyneside bars, clubs and pubs thirsty punters visited for their first-ever pints
Say cheers to the memories as we take a trip back in time to remember your first trips to the pub.
In honour of International Beer Day earlier this month, we invited the Shields Gazette readers to tell us which South Tyneside pub they visited for their first pint – and, if they could remember, what they ordered at the bar.
And the question unearthed some classic pictures from our archives as punters raised a virtual glass to their favourite watering holes.

Did you frequent Surfers Bar at the Sea Hotel? It got a shout out from Lisa Wightman - it's pictured here in 1983.
