The former home of much-loved city nightspot is now set for a new lease of life as Irish-theme pub The Dubliner.
From the seventies onwards, Julie's on Newcastle quayside was one of the city's best-loved clubs and generations of revellers still have fond memories of its heyday. So, it's no surprise that news the closed-down building is now preparing to reopen is generating huge excitement on social media.
Daniel Van Hymus is the man behind the plan to breathe new life into the ground floor of the iconic building, with the opening of the quayside's 'first Irish bar' The Dubliner. With a revamp set to take place outside and in, he plans to have the bar open in June, in time to tap into the season of summer events in the city including the Blaydon Race and Sam Fender's upcoming dates at St James' Park.
