A popular café and wine bar in a North Tyneside coastal down has announced its closure with immediate effect.
Signature Lounge on Park View in Whitley Bay has closed its doors after three years, but promised a "transformation" set to launch in 2025.
The premises, an off-shoot of regional estate agents Signature North East, offered food throughout the day, including a breakfast menu, small plates, and sushi. However, just hours after the business made its announcement late on Sunday night, its website had been closed down and Google opening hours showed it as closed.
A statement on Signature Lounge's social media pages read: "After three incredible years, we are announcing the closure of Signature Lounge. We want to express our heartfelt gratitude to all our amazing customers and dedicated staff who made this journey possible.
"While it is bittersweet to say goodbye, we are excited to announce our transformation, set to launch in 2025. Thank you for being part of our story."
