Seb's Bar, Stanhope St, South Shields NE33 1HW

About This Pub

Oh, let me tell you about Seb's Bar – it's one of those places that just hits the mark for a proper night out in South Shields. We've got rave reviews about the food; the smash burgers and dirty fries are absolute winners, and the Sunday lunches are hearty and full of flavour, making it a go-to for a relaxed meal. The bottomless brunch is a real highlight too, ideal for catching up with mates over drinks and laughs. What really stands out is the service – the team, especially folks like Claire, go above and beyond to make sure everyone feels welcome and looked after, which adds such a warm touch to the whole experience. It's got that perfect mix of eating, drinking, and dancing to great tunes, turning any visit into a proper party. On the downside, though, it's not open every day, so you have to time your trip just right, and with not many reviews floating about, it might feel like a hidden gem that's still finding its feet. Still, if you're up for an honest good time without the crowds, I'd say give it a go – it's got that genuine, welcoming feel that makes you want to come back.

Pros and Cons

Pros
  • The food is absolutely spot on – think smashing burgers, dirty fries, and delicious Sunday dinners that leave you wanting more.
  • Service is top-notch; the staff are incredibly attentive and welcoming, making you feel right at home from the moment you walk in.
  • It's got a brilliant atmosphere for a good time, with great music, dancing, and options like bottomless brunch that's perfect for groups.
  • A great spot for eating, drinking, and partying, especially in South Shields, where it stands out as a fun local haunt.
Cons
  • It's only open a few days a week, from Wednesday to Sunday, so you'll need to plan your visit in advance and might miss out mid-week.
  • With just 34 reviews under its belt, it feels a bit under the radar, so you might not know what to expect if you're new to the area.
  • No phone number listed makes it tricky to get in touch quickly for bookings or queries, which could be a hassle on busy nights.

Had a fabulous time ...thank you to the lovely staff very attentive food amazing and a great crowd who get in had a lovely time with people I/we have never known that's to us a good nite... Good food, good banter,good drink and excellent surroundings what more could one want in south shields? It's about time a decent place like Sebs has opened up. The people who diss this lovely bar needs to get themselves back to Mac-e-deez for food where they belong.

Amazing welcome, Amazing service,Amazing bottomless brunch. 6 of us had pre booked the bottomless brunch and what a fabulous experience it was. We were greeted at the door by Claire the manager and we’re instantly made to feel very welcome. We were shown to our table and they explained how their bottomless brunch worked, drinks available were Moretti, Prosecco, vodka and mixers and different gins and mixers and we were allowed to choose any meal off the menu( except steaks). Every single one of our meals were superb, huge portions, served piping hot and tasted delicious. 2 of the lovely staff Ellie-Jo and Ebony looked after us so well and kept us topped up with drinks for the full 2.5 hour session. I read on a previous review someone posted that all in the party had to be finished their drinks before you got another, this is absolute rubbish, the staff continually came round, kept checking everything was ok and continued to serve us drinks. The cost was £30 per person and it was the best £30 spent, unbelievable value for money and it won’t be long before we all return to do it all over again. A huge Thankyou to all the staff, who worked so hard to make sure our visit was perfect and look forward to seeing you all again soon.

Visited Saturday with my sister and son. Food and service 1st class. Unlike other bottomless brunch places I have visited Sebs Bar food actually tasted amazing, so much flavor. Loved the fresh coleslaw was delicious. The service was very attentive, even though the bar was very busy. Staff could not do enough for us. Love it that much hope to be back Saturday. Keep up good work ! Just what town needs a bar like this !
