Animals rights activists attempted to take over a Michelin Star eatery - but sat in the bar instead of disrupting the restaurant.
Nine members of Animal Rebellion entered House of Tides in Newcastle at around 6pm on Saturday evening. The fine dining restaurant, located on the Quayside, is run by chef Kenny Atkinson.
The group entered the venue when it opened and aimed to occupy tables reserved for diners. However they sat in the bar downstairs instead of the restaurant, which is located upstairs.
