    A popular place to dine is the Seaburn Strip, an impressive choice of culinary experiences situated along the seafront in the pleasant northern suburb of Seaburn:

    Little Italy Slightly pricy but an excellent location on the actual seafront promenade make this worthwhile. Better for mains than Pizza.

    Gabriele's The Grandad of the seafront Italians. Has done little change over the years and this is no bad thing.

    Martinos The new kid on the block. Italian fare in a kitsche faux roman setting with a lively sport bar and amusement arcade adjoining.

    Santini's Home of the famous "Happy Hour" that goes down well with the locals due to the 50% discount on the menu before 7pm. Simple Italian fare offering excellent value and two doors down from Gabriele's.

    The Shagorika The original seafront curry house. Good service, spicy food and a good variety on the menu. The discount menus on Thursday and Sunday nights are good value.

    The Pritiraj A slightly more plush surrounding than the Shagorika with seating at 1st floor level overlooking the North Sea. The specials are worth are try.

    Paradise Garden Slightly further along the seafront from the other eateries but worth the journey. The hot and sour soup and filet steak mains are exceptional. Book in advance on weekends.

    The city centre also boasts an array of places to dine, many of which have opened fairly recently:

    Angelo's In the smart Sunniside district, this new Italian offers a fine dining experience at reasonable prices. A recent change of Head Chef has made impressive improvements to the speed of service which had in the past been a bit slow. Well worth a visit!

    Thai Manor Possibly Sunderland's most exclusive restaurant, situated on the corner of Athenaeum Street and West Sunniside.

    D'Acqua A chic basement restaurant in the heart of Sunderland's legal and financial quarter, John Street.

    Luciano's An old favourite. Opened in 1991, Luciano's proprietors claim the venue is as much a part of Sunderland's culture as the Stadium of Light. Known for fast, efficient service, happy hour prices and the infamous 'Birthday Fedora'.

    Ming Dynasty One of the city centre's busiest Chinese restaurants, conveniently located for the Empire Theatre.
    *Sandwich and gourmet coffee shop offering quality beverages, food and snacks in a welcoming environment. Daily specials available.
  • filter_dramaDrink
    Sunderland has reasonably good nightlife, although nearby Newcastle-upon-Tyne has a better choice of bars, pubs and clubs, with many staying open til the early hours of the morning. Alcohol in the North East is stupendously cheap compared to some other places in the UK. Sunderland is studenty during the week, big night on Saturday, but clubs and bars are open all nights.

    Independent is a bar on Holmeside playing all types of music, cheap drinks and open till 4AM).

    Paddywacks an Irish themed late bar which often hosts live music on Green Street. Stays open until the early hours of the morning.

    The Glass Spider Next door to the afore mentioned Paddywacks and stays open even later (til 4am)!

    Infusion Good mainly for the fact that it sells incredibly cheap "trebles" of house spirits.

    Pure is an indie bar opposite Infusion next to the bus interchange. Cheap beer and the bar upstairs often has live music events.

    The Borough is an old-school pub with some good beer and better indie/rock music as well as frequent live events in a common vein. Get "Jaeger-bombs" here to start your night!

    Passion Rock Club, formally Pzazz, is a large club and music venue with a restaurant. It is usually full of drunken kids and bad music. The drinks are expensive too.
    *Voted the 'Best Pub in the North East', this venue serves excellent afternoon food, and has a decent selection of real ales etc. All in a pleasant village-green type surrounding!

    The city of Newcastle-upon-Tyne is only a short metro ride away.

    Durham, famous for Durham Cathedral and Castle, is also easily accessible by bus.
  • filter_dramaRespect
    It is unwise to call the people from this area Geordies as this refers to the inhabitants of nearby Newcastle. Most folk of Sunderland call themselves Mackems. It is unwise to go around town with a Newcastle United shirt, especially on matchdays as they are fierce rivals with Sunderland A.F.C.

    People from Sunderland are known for their curiousness and hospitality and will go out of their way to be friendly and helpful. Standing around with a puzzled look and a map for a few minutes will normally attract someone over to you to offer some assistance. Or you could just ask them for info, they will take pride in you visiting their city.
