Varsity

Green Terrace

Part of the Barracuda Group’s chain of Varsity pubs. This venue mixes modern exposed brick and metalwork with traditional pub soft furnishings. An unusual design causes you to enter the venue on an open landing between two levels. The larger room is downstairs with an impressive L-shaped bar and ample seating booths. Upstairs has a high ceiling giving a very airy feel. An audio visual system provides a random selection of music.

I agree. Sunderland and south shields are dead at the moment.

Just because the sunderland town centre is dead now doesnt spoil it for me. I really like coming here whether it is busy or not. It is big with plenty of space to move. I can also bring my lass here and sit in the seats. The staff and music is good. I always see new faces staying in here for hours. It has a real nice atmosphere about it. Nice one Varsity.

Question   28th June 10
Varsity is an american term name of college/university. Students at St Peters R mental about the indie scene. Wudnt you abviusly think that varsity wud try to attract students because of its name? INDIE NIGHT PLEASE! kaiser chiefs, stone roses, morrisey, killers, smiths

It is expensive without a card though. Still i like the place if planning to meet there and someone brings a card!

I agree that i dwell back and forth in time to cater for the older cowd - thats my job. I have stacks of upfront music such as funky house, progressive house, tech house etc but this might drive a lot of the varsity crowd away as there are many types & ages to consider! I play all types of commercial music from 1980s - pres.

God what is everyones issue? I mean yeh the musics not always fresh but you can always be guaranteed of a dance with the girls and like Jonny says its great for other things such as the footy. We were in on Saturday and I couldnt believe how big their screen is didn't even notice the upstairs till Sat how blind!

Re: Heather and Jack
If you think we are expensive you really need to look around! With your V-card it's only £1.99 for a spirit and mixer £2.20 for a pint of lager £2.50 for a bottle of VK £1.50 any Bomb (Jager, Bucca,etc) and the list goes on. Yes we don't sell trebles for £3 however we also don't serve cheap brands. Guess you get what you pay for.

Everywhere seems to be suffering on a saturday night. Less and less people are coming out these days. Sunderland has become a bit of a ghost town for some reason so im glad the world cup has arrived. Place to be for footy. Great atmosphere - COME ON ENGLAND

Re heather from Jack   9th June 10
Totaly agree what you are sayin. Costs a lot of money in ere. would be busier if drinks were cheeper.

Heather from silksworth   4th June 10
the music is fine ....... its the drink prices that are the problem!

Re stef   2nd June 10
I like varsity because the music is different and isnt like all the same bars. To be honest if it was the same I wouldnt walk all the way round to varsity from the main street - what would be the point.

Although I loved the house music the dj played here months ago on a saturday night I think the music is best the way it is from a business point of view. Thers loads of different ages gettin in here. Stick with the chart and cheese. We go out on a saturday night and some of the bar's music in sunderland is very plain and boring compared to here.
