Mine was the Linny bar 1983 . The lounge was full of rockers .Not long after went in the Empire and it had flags across the ceiling and it too was full of rockers !

My entire pub crawl from the mid 90s around redcar has neàrly gone or changed its name ... pig n whistle (one that went when Morrisons was built), clary, elgins, royal, hydro, sharkeys, leos, reds then manhattans (and the one thats now a chippy next to the beacon bingo who's name escapes me)

Crown and anchor has survived and im sure the stockton changed it name at some point .. the bookmaker?

The Mayfair was the one that is now Russells. Elgins is up for lease also but is a total shat hole these days

If I had had one, I intended to name my first born daughter Victoria Alma Helena - in homage to the three pubs on Whitby Street, Hartlepool in which I wasted a lot of my youth. I never had a daughter so nobody had to suffer. Only the Princess Helena remains now and it's only just hanging on. Shame.

The Anchor south bank before it changed to barnacle bills......happy days 23p a pint and 10p for 10 number 10

Another one I remember, and what seemed like the height of continental cool at the time was Bierrex on Albert Road (opposite the original Triads, which I still maintain was originally one of the best designed shops of all time) which offered lagers and beers not available in your standard pubs.

Sort of a craft beer bar, which litter the town now, but back in what 1992 ?

Whilst I'm this early 90's nostalgia trip, what about K Cider which came in a black bottle and was marketed as the upmarket version of what at the time was a pretty downtrodden drink beloved of students and alcoholics mainly. A marketing campaign in Select magazine and NME attempted to position it alongside Grolsch, Becks and Bud as a trendy alternative and probably to try and get people drinking booze when out after many years of Acid House had eaten into the drink sales at clubs and pubs across the land.

Bierrex was excellent.

Bumped into Paul Heaton and The Housemartins before Beautiful South fame in Bierex . My mates never knew them and I was having good laugh with them about Boro and Hull .

[Erimus74]

Flixx, Lord Raglin, Shakey, Biere X, The Albert, Billy Pauls ................. all on the Friday & Saturday night runs

Some cracking names there Tommy, our route also but not heard Bierd X before though

 

[guisborough_rob]

The Buck, The Seven Stars, The Highland Laddie, The Moorcock in Guisborough all gone now. There may well be others I’ve forgotten due to decrepitude....and too much ale at a formative age.

 

[Kosovo]

Hydro and Sharky’s - Redcar

The Normanby

The George and Cleveland Bay - Eston

All visited regularly in my youth.

My mother/father in law had The Buck just before it closed. Well and truly screwed over by the brewery.

The Venue/Chicago Rock.....

 

[Davey_C]

Some great nights out on that corner, loads of pubs but you had to actually queue to get in, back in the day.
