We continue to do what we’ve been doing here at The Old Coal Yard since reopening but with the new regional restrictions in place. Although there is some confus...ion about whether it’s appropriate to mix with other households in pubs and bars, we continue to believe in and work with the advice given by healthcare professionals. So we will be offering tables for single household/support bubbles during the regional tightening of the restrictions. Don’t forget to support your local businesses during these even harder times and pick the places that have safety built in to their way of doing things. We continue to work hard to try and navigate our way through this storm and still be here on the other side. Wash those hands, wear that mask where you need to, or are asked to, and be kind to folk. All we’ve got are each other. Opening hours: Thursday & Friday 4 - 9.30pm Saturday 2 - 9.30pm Sunday 2 - 8pm

We're building a temporary 'Pop Up Market' at The Beacon today. Bear with us as this is rapid response. We are looking to do click and collect from The Beacon o...r door step deliveries.

Hiya!!! We are back open for orders. We won’t be operating on a walk in basis for the foreseeable as we just get too busy for social distancing to work. What we... will be doing is discussing/taking orders via our Facebook page for collection by appointment. This has always worked really well in the past during busy times so we are confident it will work well for now. If anyone wants to come in and have a proper conversation about something or bring something in for us to print on we are totally happy to make appointments to do that too! Please message us via our FB page to chat about orders or popping in to see us. These are very strange times but think this is the best way for us to continue going forward. Looking forward to getting printing again!!! #gateshead #lowfell #popupstudiouk #shopping #customprinting See more
