A popular North Shields local pub has re-opened its doors after undergoing a stylish £210,000 refurbishment.
The Alexandra on Queen Alexandra Road has had a complete revamp to turn it into the ultimate entertainment venue for pubgoers. Among the new additions are eight TVs, with BT Sport and Sky Sports to allow the pub to screen some of the biggest events in the sporting calendar for punters.
The pub is run by North Shields couple Dave and Christine Johnson, who have more than 25 years of experience in the industry and are excited to be at the helm for the Alexandra's new chapter. Dave said: "Myself and Christine grew up in North Shields and know how important pubs like the Alexandra are to the local community.
