As part of the phased reopening of the country, from April 12 pubs and restaurants have been able to open their outdoor spaces for groups of six or two households mixing.
It’s a sigh of relief for many South Tyneside businesses who can finally welcome customers once more. Here’s some of the borough’s beer gardens that are open now, along with booking details where applicable.
