Quick answer: In North Shields you can play board games at Northumbrian Tin Soldier (games shop with tables to play at, board game club on Wednesdays from 5pm).

Northumbrian Tin Soldier is a card and miniatures shop at heart, but on Wednesday evenings it runs a board game club where you can bring your own or pick from the shop's library. Bay Games in Whitley Bay is a short hop up the coast, and Newcastle has plenty more.
