An infamous pop-up diner promising rude service and great drinks is set to return to the North East this summer, after success in previous events. 

First launched in Australia, Karen's Diner has since gone global after becoming a viral sensation TikTok for flipping customer service on its head with rude wait staff and terrible manners.

The brand first came to the North East in February, with a pop-up venue in Newcastle drawing in huge crowds.

Bosses at the chain have announced three new pop-up dates this summer from July 21 to 23.

But organisers have promised the food will be bottomless after being inundated by complaints following the first North East pop-up event.

Customers were left disappointed when they were served one slice of pizza, compared to the ‘bottomless’ offering which had been sold to them.

Ryan Blackburn, Managing Director of Karen's On Tour said: “Once you’re in a Karen’s you’ll not be thinking about strikes, Brexit or electricity costs, you’ll just be wanting to survive.

“Customers would need to expect plenty of sass, great food, and a sprinkle of bad attitude, so don't expect special treatment as it’s all about Karen, and she won't be taking any nonsense.

"All will be able to have fun and wind the staff up to unleash their inner Karen and see their full Karen potential."

Diners are told to expect turbulent service, singing waiters and regular visits from the manager who is quoted to be "the biggest Karen of them all".

Since launching in Sydney, Australia in 2021 diners have since opened up across the UK in Sheffield, Manchester, Birmingham and Newport.
