New gin bar opens in former Tynemouth church
Alfie & Fin’s Gin Bar, tucked away inside the Land of Green Ginger in Front Street, boasts more than 35 specifically selected premium grade gins, and has quickly built up a dedicated following in ten weeks of opening.
The bar has been set up by Sarah Cook and John Peacock, who built up a wealth of knowledge hosting local gin festivals.

Sarah said: “Honouring its surroundings, the bar has a classic style with oxblood chesterfield sofas, dark oak tables and arch mirrors that emulate the stained glass windows inside, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere.
“Tynemouth has always been a supporter of independent businesses, with the Land of Green Ginger providing a home for a wide range of quirky, local establishments.
“If you are looking for somewhere new to try that is off the beaten track, the secret is out.”
