First look inside As You Like It as popular Jesmond bar returns First look inside As You Like It as popular Jesmond bar returns
A Jesmond bar has made a comeback as it reverts back to its original name.
As You Like It has made a return to the city after being rebranded last year following a £500,000 revamp.
The bar was renamed Zarabanda Bing Bing last summer and boasted a seventies Ibiza holiday mood and Spanish-theme menu.
But just over a year later customers have been told that along with a few tweaks to the decor, the name change is the biggest difference they can expect as it reverts back to its original name.
The Apartment Group, which owns the establishment, said there was a demand to bring back the ethos of As You Like It.
Punters can enjoy live music, entertainment, a new food menu and re-imagined drinks menu with an 'As You Like It' section.
We have taken a look inside the new venue and what customers can expect to see.
