These Things Happen

You're walking into somewhere that feels like it belongs in Roker rather than trying to be somewhere else. These Things Happen sits right on Harbour View with actual views to match, and the whole place has that relaxed confidence of a bar that knows what it's doing. The crowd's mixed—you've got people in for an afternoon pint, couples making an evening of it, groups of mates getting properly stuck in. The drinks list takes itself seriously without being pretentious about it, and staff actually seem to know what they're talking about rather than just following a script.
