Pleased to Meet You in North Shields

You know, when I think about Pleased to Meet You in Tynemouth, it just brings a smile – it's one of those places that feels like a proper local gem, with staff who greet you like they've known you forever and food that's genuinely mouthwatering, whether you're tucking into a full English or sharing some small plates with a bottle of Prosecco. With a solid overall rating, it's clear folks keep coming back for the top-notch service and that relaxed bar atmosphere, especially if you snag a spot outside on a sunny day. That said, it's not without its little niggles; it can get packed, so you might end up queuing or waiting a bit, and if you're after something like their afternoon tea, you'll need to plan ahead to avoid disappointment. All in all, it's a brilliant choice for a catch-up with mates or a special treat, as long as you're up for that lively buzz – I'd say give it a go if you're in the area, but maybe check the timings first to make the most of it.
