Asda Cafe in County Durham

very nice food. quick delivery

This is the worst food I ever had. The chips was all packed along with the fish and no gravy has been served.

Orderd at 9:30 said it would be here by 11:00-11:30 and only just received my order

Ordered extra chips but they were missing from order

Waited over a hour and dint even receive food bough me some one else’s food shopping

didn’t even arrive at all paid money, I didn’t even get my order waiting on a refund Kevin

Absolutely awful, very uninviting, bench seats ripped and look awful. The food? Well that was horrible we had 1 toasty meal deal, cheese and tomato, some kind of tomato paste, had a rank plastic taste and was cold, wanted the crisp option, they don't do crisps..??? Although that's what is advertised, had to be a cold drink in the deal paid 55p on top of £5 for a coffee, daughter had tuna and cheese panini came out burnt looked and smelt terrible. Granson (4) had a kids pizza meal, would have been great value for a £1, if it wasn't dry and missing beans. We all left it (hate wasting food) from the little we did eat we all suffered with bad stomachs next day. Apparently the cafe is outsourced..... You should bin them off asda they are not good for you. We was hoping it was better than the one in West Bridgeford but it's much worse, at least the food is edible there......

Absolutely atrocious. The pizza was dry and tasteless . The cheese and tomato toastie was bizarre, not toasted on the bottom a tomato looking paste spread in the middle with one slice of tomato, underside top slice not toasted then the topside was toasted with a bit of cheese on top, none in the sandwich at all. Bizarre and inedible. Never will I set foot in there again.

Had a drink here this afternoon & was very shocked at the state of the place. Absolutely filthy. Dirty tables, some with dirty plates on. Few were cleared & they hadn't been wiped. This is bad enough without covid but unacceptable with covid still on the increase. Plenty of cafe's now in Northwich. Avoid this place.

Asda can make your Christmas very expensive beware if you are thinking of doing all your christmas shopping at Asda York Just received a £70 parking fine for overstaying in the car park and yes we really were spending our money there one large spend upstairs for all our presents , lunch , a second spend downstairs and then a tank full of fuel Asda don`t care try to contact them phone rings, machine tells you they are too busy then cuts you off

Staff friendly and always willing to help, very clean areas! Will go the extra mile if you ask, happy to go through allergies! Food simple but fresh! Also great with both children and the elderly!!!

4th December 2019, due to family issues breakfast was missed, so whilst we were shopping in Asda we decided to use their Cafe and have breakfast. Some times in life you make a decision and regret your choice, this was one of those moments. Food had obviously been kept warm for a long long time as the fried eggs had hard yolks, fried bread was greasy and a solid lump, the bacon was like leather and sausages were case hardened. On the positive, beans and mushrooms were lovely My advice....eat elsewhere

Service is ok in here. Not very enthusiastic.Basic selection of food. When we got food it was pretty bland and not very hot. It was ok for the price won't be back in a hurry. Cup of tea was ok though.

I visited Asda Boldon last Tuesday with my daughter in law. And suggested we go for a bite to eat. Unfortunately I I had to select around a dozen knives and forks before I could find some clean ones. I would say Asda need to get a new dishwasher or employ some staff to do the job properly.

We visited Asda this weekend and while there decided to try a breakfast in the Cafe. What a mistakea to makea. Having chosen our breakfast which we couldn't see, we were asked if we wanted toast. Not for another 70p thanks. 2 coffees plus 1x6 item and 1x9 item breakfast = £12 + The egg was perfect but that's where it stopped. All the food baring the egg was cold even the lattes were only just warm. Very dissatisfied we looked around and there was another table occupied with a lady and 2 children. 10.30 on a Saturday morning and Empty. Should have Known just looking around. Sad really for a huge company and looking at other reviews its been terrible for quite a while. Stay away.

Having been out most of the day in various locations we came to Asda Peterlee to do our weekly shop. We were hungry decided to get some food at the upstairs cafe. For quickness we both ordered the all day breakfast. When brought to the table it didn't look very nice or fresh. After the first couple of bites I was right it was not fresh it seemed everything had been on a hot plate and then dished up. I had asked for a poached egg which somehow looked the same as my wifes fried egg. When the server was asked the reply was it's the way we do them now. It was terrible and most of it was left. Needless to say there wont be another visit if I could give a no star I would as it was worse than terrible.

Popped into Asda today for a toilet break and whilst we were there, something to eat. The toilets looked like they hadn't been cleaned for a while and every toilet out of toilet roll, tried looking for a member of staff but only staff available were in the tobacco kiosk....who were busy. Went to the cafe, and could see food all over the floor pretty much everywhere in the cafe, the lady behind the counter was very helpful and polite when ordering our food and even gave us large cups for soft drinks even though we paid for small, the food was ok, was great value for money, you get what you pay for....which was fine, overall satisfied with our visit but they need to up the game on the cleanliness.

Asda is my local shopping mall. And on this off chance we popped upstairs for a bite to eat. I really wish I saved my money. I had fishcake chips and beans. Which was horrendously overpriced, even seeing him with smart price chips being tipped into the fryer. My food was brought over to the table, which was nice even though he span the plate to me and trotted off. The chips were hot and fresh obviously, I'd seen him cook them there and then, but my beans were like stones. And the fish cakes could have put out a window. I took it back to say that was inedible. He just shrugged and said, ''aya wanting it or shall a bin it then'' wow ok. What about a refund? No? Nothing. So I went home and posted a picture to asdas facebook page. An hour later asda had removed my entire post. How careless. I will never step foot in your crappy overpriced restaurant again. And yours staffs attitude stunk more than the fryer

good quality food served fresh and reasonably priced, i would recommend this cafe to any one who want's a decent lunch or snack at a decent price

Had a lovely lunch very tasty and inexpensive plenty of room and very clean. Would recommend to clacton on sea shoppers

nice drinks foods ok could be more choice also think it would be better if the food was freshly cooked and not sitting under a heat lamp

Crap . Plastic forks, paper plates, small portions. Go to any greasy spoon and it’ll be a million times better. Soulless

Disgusting breakfast & not the first time at Shoeburyness Asda cafe run by Compass. Raw mushrooms, burnt sausages , hard on one side cold on the other, hash browns burnt on the outside cold in centre, egg no yolking, Beans clap cold, I complained sent the whole thing back. Staff then stripped off into kitchen and started smashing plates and shouting for fuxx sake swearing and she was not quiet about it!! Disgusting unacceptable behaviour.!!!!

I came here on Christmas day and had an absolute blast. The host was halerious and the games were top notch. Would go again.

Plastic cutlery and polystyrene plates.The food was quite discusting just cheap fries and burger,tasted like fat was burnt and old.Horrible and wont go again.Whoever runs it needs sacking,or be made to eat the rubbish they serve.

£5.05 for a bacon sarnie and a coffee! Come on ASDA you are having a laugh. The sarnie was actually very nice but I could have bought it anywhere in Peterlee for half the price. Taking the Micky here I think.

Lovely clean cafe, friendly staff, lovely latte coffee and cake deal.very open cafe, plenty of light, love it there.

Food not bad but the only fresh thing they sell and make when your in the que is chips straight from the freezer so not really fresh best of popping around the corner to the bakery 😂😂

Well what can I say? Where can you get 2 large pizzas and two very decent coffees for under £15.00? ASDA!!! Yes it’s true and listen the food is good and it is served politely and professionally. It’s not the ritz and they will never get a Michelin star but you will get decent grub to feed the kids and for families who struggle in austerity Britain we need places like this. Well done ASDA

vile dirty tables , cant see the food due to been covered by glass and wen got food it was dry horrible sausage looked like been there all morning staff cant be bothered to serve you rather chat in kitchen just look at tou when you standing at counter no knife and forks had to ask for some coffee , floors looked like hadnt been cleand and swept in over a month , machine was filthy avoid was discusting never again

I can honestly say that ASDA has to be the worst place to eat for breakfast .. while at Portlethen Aberdeen I popped in for brekky and was met by a nasty little woman who was rude, Slow then got the order wrong and served cold food. I threw the lot in the bin. I won't be back until they get their staff in order !! Poor show ASDA

Grim service, awful dry food, limited menu. Never again. Bored staff, tables dirty. Coffee machine needed cleaning.

Service very slow, no organisation getting food out, dirty tables, Not good! Would be desperate to come back here

OK for a bog standard breakfast coffee I found a little bitte limited on fruit teas. Has a reasonable kids selection. You pay for a cup and fill your self.

Te hacen que las edades mientras que el personal son sólo allí. Que por lo menos. por 15 minutos su alimentos fríos en el momento en que pagas. Si tantos no listo traen más que después de que has pedido 10 minutos después donde es su comida sólo para ellos tener olvidado de mi comida! ! ! Sin duda no recomiendo

Only had chips and gravey and a nice biscuit with a late coffee was ok very friendly staff nuce with children. Dont know what main meals would be like

Unbelievable a cafe/restaurant don't do toast or eggs and not much vegetarian in fact I vote this as worst cafe in England. Staff not very welcoming well going to see Tesco do BREAKFAST note asda BREAKFAST

Not excellent and staff are not that pleasant' good for a coffee and sandwich. Very poor you used to be able to have a good selection.

I rarely criticise cafe,s or restaurants unless it really is poor in quality or over priced. Sadly Asda cafe operated by the Compass catering group is both. The food is pre prepared,giving rise to the expression "fast food". Unfortunately this was anything but fast. With only 2 customers in the queue,I expected service to be fairly brisk. The choice of "early bird breakfast" included 1 each of fried egg,hash brown,tinned tomatoes,baked beans and CUMBERLAND sausage. I emphasise Cumberland sausage,which under normal circumstances is a flavoursome lightly spiced sausage. This was anything but a cumberland sausage,being bland moderately warm and cooked almost to extinction. I appreciate in these days of watching the pennies and getting value for money is important to us all but alas, Asda[and compass] in their quest for profit over quality and taste seem to miss the whole point of catering. A few more pennies spent on good quality ingredients would result in a far superior end result and a much happier clientelle.

I called in ASDA cafe while waiting for a query to be answered at George's...there was just a couple of people in but it was almost closing time on a Sunday . Staff were clearly spoken and helpful . The food was basic but OK for what it cost ...I would use it again for a quick toastie and a cuppa

Visited early morning for cup of coffee and panini. Took about 5 minutes to come and was hot and tasty.Yes it could be cleaned more regularly but it's always busy and staff are pleasant enough.

Staff overworked and cant get time to clean up. Floor filthy, tables filthy. Manager dows not seem to care?Was like it two years ago, gave it another shot, still same.

Very very poor always cols staff un friendly and dirty tables alway dirty coffee machine hardly ever works

Cheap very basic not to be repeated. Food looks and tastes uninviting and bland. Reminds me of bad hospital food

We visited for a quick lunch but really wish we hadn't. The cafe was busy granted but there was uncleaned tables, rubbish and food strewn floors all. The tables and chairs were all over the place too but we found a table and I went up and joined the long queue. The pile of trays didn't even invite you to put plates etc on them. They were dirty, marked and wet. I picked a cake for each of us, Carrot Cake and a Fruit cake. Then came, eventually to the hot food bar. I ordered a bowl of chips and an Indian curry for my partner. The lady serving proceeded in throwing a scoop of chips into the bowl. She then served the Indian meal with a scoop of rice and a couple of scoops of curry. The curry (she must have been told to do a scoop with chicken in and a scoop of sauce because you would be lucky if you got 3 pieces on chicken in it). It was the smalled portion I have ever seen. Then came the drinks. I ordered 2 soft drinks and had 2 cups thrown at me. The man serving at the till was having a lovely conversation with a fellow staff member and so didn't give me any eye content. He demanded payment and proceeded in sticking his hand out for the money without even turning to see what I was doing let alone anything else. I paid, money was put in the till while still talking and change was duly handed over still with out looking. In fact I had to move my hand to where his was to receive it. A swift glance and carrying on with the conversation. I walked over to where the cutlery and drinks were kept and low and behold no knives and forks were to be had. So I had to go back over to Mr Conversationalist and had to butt into his conversation and received a tutt for my sins. I asked politely for the cutlery where he then shouted loudly to someone in the back to fetch them. I went back over to where the drinks were, filled the cups and still no cutlery. Took the tray to the table and still none. I had to go back and disturb him again and the look I got would have froze the Pheonix. He did some more yelling and eventually someone appeared with soaking and none to clean cutlery. The chips and curry by this time were cold. The chips could have done with being cooked for longer as some were like rubber and the curry was watery and tasteless. Now we come to the cakes which looked fine but when we came to eat them were like they had been sat out for a day. They were dry as sticks and hard in places. I will never go back, it is the worst meal that I have ever had anywhere and that is saying something.

This was in the main Shopping area of the storeI went to Asda a couple of weeks ago for some food and I wanted a certain food but I didn’t know were where is was so I kept looking but I still couldn’t find it so I went to ask one of the members of staff and even though he was really busy he came out of his way to help me look for the food I wanted.I would give it a rating of 5 stars out of 5

Went here yesterday for breakfast, we were there just after ten so they had just opened, the food wasn't hot, hash brown looked like it had been cooked for hours! It was hard and tasteless. Couldn't believe how many tables were messed up and hadn't been wiped! Remember it's only ten thirty on a sunday! The coffee was cold.. Staff could smile a little more too. Also you cannot see the food! It's all covered at the front! So you don't know what you are getting on the plate! Only good thing about it was it was only 2 50! Still cost us over eight pounds with coffee.

I visited the cafe a few weeks ago. As someone with special dietary needs I asked the staff about the sweet and savoury options. The staff were incredibly helpful and managed to find a gluten and lactose free option for me, which was also rather tasty (unusual for a supermarket cafe!)

This cafe is a disgrace paper and food strewn all over floor and tables . Asked for a baked potatoe but told by staff member they had none!!!!! The food store downstairs has loads of potatoes how difficult is it to pop down and get some, not really interested in customers , should give it up its a joke I'll not be back ...

The coffee is good, the food is good, and the price is an absolute steal. The layout is basic and functional - but clean and tidy. Good value cafe.

Let someone else do the shopping you can retreat here and enjoy a coffee, snack or a more substantial meal.

My children like to come here when we are out shopping in peterlee, there isn't a great deal for them to choose from but one of them always has 6 item kids meal and eats it all and the other will usually have chicken dippers or something along those lines,If we go during the week we get their meals for free before 3 pm as long as the Mrs and myself have something from the main menu this can potentially save us £8 (deal)

If you're already shopping in asda and fancy a cuppa then it's fine. I would go there if you weren't already there.Woman behind counter scratching her backside then handing out sandwiches doesn't look appealing.

Always convenient to have a cooked breakfast before shopping. The staff are friendly and whilst the portions are not overly generous it does represent good value for money.

Lack of staff and uncleared tables made for an unremarkable experience. Reasonable value for food. No doubt it serves its purpose for local shoppers in that area with adequate parking but a little disappointing.

Been here a few times and it's always just ok (fills a hole, nothing else). What REALLY annoys me is the fact that they always seem to run out of things despite being above a massive store downstairs. I struggle to see how this cafe can run out of beans, bread, sausages and brown sauce (on different occasions). Surely this is really bad planning and why would you not just go and get some?

Food is left out far too long , not always hot best time to go is probably when they change from breakfast to dinner ... I find it expensive too ... You can get a good 2 course meal for £5 at some places but definitely not here ... For me this is more of a cup of tea & maybe a sandwich but that's about it ...

Stood 15 minutes in a que, the cafe was NOT busy. Breakfast was freezing cold. Customer service was a disgrace, I wonder if the staff have ever heard of a smile. Most disgusting breakfast I have ever experienced !

Not very good the food was edible but i wouldn't go there any time soon. The coffee is rotten taste sorry

Been a few times. Good for a quick, cheap bite to eat. Staff are very friendly. Tables could do with more regular cleaning and water sometimes cold in coffee machine.

We called in prior to doing our shopping mid afternoon. We both had lattes and a pizzini (yes that is correct). The coffee was very good and the pizzini was hot and tasty. We both thought it was good value for money and served in clean and tidy surroundings.

Good place to have a quick coffee or bacon sarnie or breakfast if you are shopping in Peterlee Asda. Reasonably priced, clean and decent toilets.

I've been searching for some considerable time now for a decent establishment to take my good lady to lunch. The likes of Seham Hall and Lumley Castle didn't quite come up to scratch, added to that the five quid petrol money for the old Corsa (1.6 turbo edition) Look no further folks Asda at Peterlee is a hidden gem.We visited on the Friday morning and had a wonderful full english breakfast, my partner had the eggs benedict and i settled for their delicious cinammon whirls, pain au chocolat, warm croissants with butter.Service was excellent, only downside was the lady serving (Doris) Whilst her love and hate knuckle tattos were an artistic masterpiece an unlit rollie attached to the gob can be just a little off putting.

Great value and the staff are so friendly and helpful. Choose any 5 items for £2.50. Eggs usually cooked while you wait.

I have ate here a few times and not once have I had a good experience, the food is terrible, often dry as it has been standing for ages under a heat lamp, the coffee is always cold, the staff are unfriendly and look down on you, the portions are small. I have visited this place and got a ham salad, some of the ham was missing from the slice, I complained stating it looked like someone had took a bite out of it, was told it wasn't and that that particular piece had gone off and was in fact picked off the served anyway, I have ordered a Panini (as it has to be cooked fresh) it wasn't still freezing in the middle (not good when it has chicken in it) the microwaved it making it hard and stodgy, I complained got my money back, just don't eat here, even if your starving, wait till you get home or go elsewhere

I've never complained about Asda Cafe as it's always been cheap and cheerful, especially if you're on a budget!Asda Peterlee didn't have a cafe since the old Asda store closed in 2001. When the new Asda store opened, it had a little cafe that only did snacks and quite a few complained about it not having a cafe that did meals. Asda Peterlee got a cafe when the mezzanine level was built in 2009.

Went there to get the Christmas dinner the 2 for £8 at the Asda Cafe at Peterlee. When we went to order you were only allowed 4 items and couldn't get the rest. The staff that served us had an attitude and I felt that she couldn't be bothered with us. When we recieved the dinner it was stone cold even though the supposed Turkey had just come out of the oven. It was very disappointing and wasn't happy about it.
