The bar, in the old toilet block in Pier View, is one of many disused buildings in Roker and Seaburn being brought to life, with future openings including a new seafood restaurant in the old shelter on Seaburn promenade, a Blacks Corner cafe in the old Victorian tram shelter in Seaburn and a new beachfront bar in the shelter in Marine Walk.
