From Little Mix’s Jade Thirlwall opening a cocktail bar on Ocean Road to the takeover of a number of traditional boozers, the borough has seen a host of new – and old – drinking spots open their doors over the last year.

Have you had a night to remember (or forget) in any of these popular South Tyneside drinking spots?
