Barluga Morpeth in Northumberland

Had lunch here. Sat outside on their terrace with heating. Good food and friendly service. Very good moules et frites

Lovely food, I can recommend the chunky chips and onion rings. Chef came out to ask direct regarding gluten free options, brilliant. The main courses can be pricey, but they are good. I can't give 5 stars due to the length of time the food took to prepare, 1 hour 15 mins to wait for kids meals is poor, when its quiet. However the waitress Abi, was apologetic and turned the experience around. Will certainly be back.

sadly service and sunday lunch not up to usual standard today , food served not as good as previous visits. it was very busy , food warm , different vegetarian option rice based had to order drinks before food order could be taken , service curt and unwelcoming sunday lunch will be tried elsewhere , disappointing

What an amazing place Great vibes upstairs and down, all staff absolutely top draw , the chefs are at their top game food was so good and overall the price was so reasonable , thank you all for a great evening

Lovely little establishment, nice atmosphere, friendly staff , good service . Ideal situated bar close to town centre & arcade . All reasonably priced , fair options as regards menu , drinks . Probably one of the best places as regards price value for food , drinks & atmosphere in Morpeth.

Thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience.

I specifically asked for a hot hot chocolate, and that's what I got , better than the mamby pandy results you get from other outlets full marks

Excellent meal out for our party

My favourite place in Morpeth, it's a lovely place to sit and have a coffee but the food is also delicious. Staff are friendly and helpful.

Barluga in Morpeth is a delight! The beef steak ciabatta sandwich is delicious, and the lift provides easy wheelchair access to the upstairs. Friendly staff and great service make the experience even better!

We only went for drinks. The place is really nice and the staff are great.

I visited Barluga in Morpeth for Sunday lunch with my family . The food was amazing and the service was outstanding. Our waitress took time to chat with my seven year old grandaughter and suggested an alternative when she wasn’t keen on the children’s menu choices. I have never enjoyed a Sunday lunch more and the deserts were to die for. I would highly recommend Barluga, they have it spot on.

We didn't have food but the cocktails were beautiful.table service upstairs makes it feel even more special. Quite pricey but worth it 👌

I chose Barluga to host my 30th birthday, and it turned out to be an absolutely brilliant decision! The team were incredibly dedicated and an absolute pleasure to work with from the initial booking right through to the end of the night. They went above and beyond to ensure everything I needed for a successful party was taken care of. A special mention and heartfelt thanks to Abbi and Andrew who were an absolute joy to collaborate with. They kept me updated throughout the evening and couldn’t have been more friendly or full of enthusiasm. I must also highlight the food—it was simply delicious. Everyone commented on how much they enjoyed it, so a big thank you to the kitchen team for exceeding our expectations! I couldn't recommend Barluga and their wonderful team more highly if you're looking for the perfect venue to celebrate your next occasion!

Atmosphere was nice sitting outside. But value for money not good. Requested glass of prosecco and measure was shocking. I did ask if this was correct measure as I seen her use the last of the bottle of prosecco for my drink. She replied ' yes two fingers from the top' Never heard of this before. I did take a photo will add. My rationale is everyone's fingers are different sizes. My honest opinion is that is was nearly closing and didn't want to open another bottle. If its a prosecco glass the best measure to get it the same would fill it to the top even if the cost is more, you know then the measure is right.

The Morpeth area generally lacks a few decent eating establishments but I was pleasantly surprised how good the Sunday lunch was here last week. The roast beef was excellent, being served moist and pink as requested. Good quality meat, vegetables and Yorkshire pudding served with a lovely homemade gravy. The sticky toffee pudding was also rated by one of our party also. Overall, decent value for money. Recommended.

Trio Sunday dinner waa immense. We go a few times a year and it's never failed to just be exceptional every time.

Good food and service. Very spacious, smart venue.

Made year 13 leavers amazing, such a kind friendly staff, especially the waitress that was happily speaking to me and my friend in such a friendly manner. Food was delicious. 10/10 recommend.

Went for a 70th birthday there were 18 of us, got our meals all together excellent service great atmosphere great food would highly recommend

Wonderfully, unexpectedly large upstairs!Was very busy and quite loud!!Food was amazing and the service was absolutely amazing.👍

My friends and I took full advantage of the deals available. A delicious Sunday roast and pudding alongside a fair few cocktails. Our waitress Kelsey could not do enough for us, she very efficiently made sure our drinks glasses were never empty and regularly checked in on us to make sure our food etc was OK. Will definitely be back.

Great food excellent staff great surroundings Thai yellow curry fantastic company brilliant

We came back here because we really enjoyed the food and service last time. It wasn’t bad this time either, but the medium-rare meat was very dry, the rest of the dishes were excellent.

Food was great, in this age of diminishing portions, reduced quality and increased prices, this place delivered without compromise. Thoroughly recommend.

Would like to thank the staff at Barlugas, they were very helpful and friendly nothing was a problem with them. Food was delicious. Helped make a colleague's retirement meal special. Check before hand about any dietary requirements.

Lovely central place for cocktails and wine on an afternoon. Great outdoor seating area and brilliant service.

No other way to describe it but just been robbed, my wife and I visit the place every week for 2 glasses of wine each visit. Asked for our usual of a Sauvignon and a merlot to be offered New Zealand or French? Asked what the difference was and got no response as Caitlin was too engrossed in the coffee order from the upstairs. When I got the bill I found that there was £5 difference between France and NZ, that is theft, there is no visible price list for wine on display and the BOTTLE is cheaper to buy on general sale than 1 glass in Bar Luga. You've just lost 2 regular customers due to your greed absolutely disgusted 🤬🤬🤬

Food was good, only ate a main course. Prices were high ish for the area. Atmosphere was dull, perhaps needed more people eating. Lots of places to eat in Morpeth so probably won’t go again.

Had lunch there but as a couple of large parties taking place the service was very slow. Don't usually mind taking my time over lunch but seemed to have to get the staff's attention rather than them coming to us. Food was fab though

I was only going for coffee but the Tempura Prawns were suggested. Good recommendation, they were delicious. Thank you Harrison for your advice and excellent service.

Staff lovely very kind and pleasant 😊

Booked the function room for a surprise birthday party ...great buffet with lots to choose from. Well organised and efficient

Great service, venue and drinks. Andrew the bartender was highly professional and friendly. Keep it up.

Great meal at barluga for the three of us. Would recommend the Moving Mountains Burger for any fellow vegetarian/vegans and upgrading to the Parmesan and truffle fries! Buns were on the dry side but still an enjoyable burger. My brother enjoyed the surf n turf - would recommend.

Sunday lunch was the best I’ve tasted for along time ,vegetables meat and roast potatoes we’re fantastic you will not be disappointed. Our waitress Kelsey was friendly and polite booked again for next Sunday Great food reasonable priced wine and good atmosphere.

Visited Bar Luga today with my brother for lunch. Atmosphere was lovely as it was quiet. Staff were very friendly and polite. The food was beautiful! We had tempura king prawns to share and they were perfect. My brother had chicken with a haggis mash which he enjoyed and I had the butternut squash and Chilli risotto which was full of flavour and very tasty.

Absolutely Superb It’s about time I put a review on , as we have visited the Morpeth Barluga a few times , the food and service is 1st class. Visited today with the family for Sunday lunch, delicious and good portions …

Booked in for a birthday lunch and the staff were amazing as always. Friendly, attentive and upbeat. The food was outstanding. We got mussels and chicken pate to start which was outstanding. For mains I got the sirloin surf and turf which was spectacular. Perfectly cooked and packed full of flavour. The wife got the borgenion which was tender and full of flavour. The only downside was the mouthy charvas sat on the next table mouthing off about utter trash. Finished off with a few limoncellos but thank you all for an amazing birthday meal

Great ambience, food lovely and the plates were warm :-)! The manager and staff were discreetly attentive, prices very reasonable and they managed a party of 11 very well. My first time at Barlugas, it won't be my last.

Amazing dinner for our annual family Christmas get together, service and food all amazing, couldn’t have asked for anything better! 🎄

Well done Mark !! We visit this bar every so often and always enjoy it but on our last visit the actions of Mark really made a huge impression. My wife has disability issues and some places in Morpeth make it difficult to get around but this bar is really disabled friendly with the lifts and no steps. Also when you have staff that go out of their way to make you feel comfortable it makes a huge difference. Mark showed great customer service skills and when we highlighted it he wasn't even aware that he had done it. The way he acted was just his normal way !! Thank you Mark for making my wife's day with opening doors, pressing the button for the lift and being a good bloke !!

Absolute amazing in every aspect for a private function. Flawless from beginning to the end. The food, staff and facilities were great. All of our guests were extremely complimentary.

We just had our wedding day at Barluga and it was fantastic! Andrew planned a fab afternoon for us from walking down the aisle to feeding us all the wonderful food Barluga served. We had a fantastic time and highly recommend Barluga as a lovely venue for your wedding! It was just want we wanted from our day and the Morpeth team did a fantastic job of executing all our plans perfectly. Thanks again Andrew and the team!

Nice visit, good food and pleasant staff.

Excellent across the board today. Can't wait to go again.

Absolutely fantastic service here - second to none. I have been here three times now and each time the staff have been so attentive. In particular, Abby has been great. Nothing is too much trouble. Incredibly friendly atmosphere and the food is great too!

We held our wedding reception here and Abby, the Team and chefs were outstanding. Food choice superb. Food on the day awesome. All guests commented and thoroughly enjoyed. It doesn't come any better than this. If it were possible then 100 out of 10 💗💗💗thank you Barluga for absolutely everything.

Private dining facilities is amazing great service from Abbi and her team. The three course meal is superb and great value for money. Second time. We have a house and event there and we will be back to sample the food the atmosphere of the hospitality.

Came in with some friends. We were only going to have one and head somewhere else but we ended up staying as Niki was absolutely amazing and her margarita skills. Top notch customer service. Will definitely return!

We went here for my daughter's 30 th birthday and had a table of 15 of us altogether ,food was excellent, service was excellent, very well organised. Would recommend to any one who wants to have a brilliant time .

I was working upstairs today as a kid's entertainer and wanted to give a special thank you to a member of staff called Kelsey for being so helpful and going out of her way for me. 👍 Please pass on my compliments ❤️

Birthday meal with family (15 people). Fantastic service from all the staff at Barluga. Food was amazing. Kelsey gave us the utmost care and attention the whole night. Could not be happier with how we were treated. 10 out of 10. Definitely would recommend.

As a group of friends we visited barluga on a wet saturday afternoon .We were still able to sit outside due to the bar having a number of tables covered by a large canopy . A young waiter called luke came straight over making sure our table was clean and dry .Throughout our time at the bar he was particularly attentive making sure we had drinks and carrying them over to the table .The bar had a lovely atmoshere,the staff were friendly .We will definitely go back

On the 12th August 2033 we hired the function room for a small wedding reception for my mother. The room was beautiful the tables were immaculate with lovely floral dressing. I can not state enough how professional polite the staff were. The food was amazing all the guests commented how lovely it was. As for value for money a 100%. The staff the chefs made this a wonderful day. 5 stars are not enough for what they did for us, they went the extra mile 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 thank you

Food? Checked! Nice music? Checked? Maybe you want to watch a nice movie? Checked!

Gutted the seafood platter isn't on the menu anymore. Removed 5* review. Had cod in spring veg broth instead. Cod was a decent chunk very slightly dry but not too bad. Broth was really lovely. Crushed potato mound the cod was perched on top was bland. I usually only add salt to chips but added loads and it was still tasteless so didn't finish it. My partner's Thai mussels tasted nice so I'll have to have that next time.

We found it to be a pretty plastic cafe to be honest. At 3.45 on a Sunday afternoon a male member of staff with a totally bored and indifferent expression began lifting the seat cushions outside and we felt so uncomfortable since it was obvious that we were expected to leave that we left the Coffee, tea,ices and cakes ( plastic wrapped) we had just bought and left. Totally uninspiring.

Excellent service, really tasty food everything was perfect 👍

First time visited. Food was well served, atmosphere was okay, music a little loud for the number of people sitting in. Hard to hear each other, had to ask to turn it down. Upstairs was like the tardis, so huge and airy.

Had an awesome night out here. Great staff and amazing cocktails. Will definitely be back.

Sat outside on a sunny day. Not greeted by the man clearing tables - had to go inside to ask for a menu. A waitress came to ask us if we wanted drinks, but didn’t bring a drinks menu - so we just ordered beers, but we’re told “it’s bar service” - ??? We ordered food - then waited and waited some more. A family group who sat down after us were served before us, as they seemed to know to go inside to order? Food arrived - very “thrown together” - poor quality ingredients. My club sandwich was a mountain of dry bread with a smear of mayo, very dry chicken, bacon with still white and cold fat (yuk) and uninspiring salad on the side. French fries were cool going cold in no time. Partner had fish finger sandwich, which he said was okay, but also lukewarm. I think this food had been forgotten on the pass. When we went to pay and asked if things were okay - we said no and were told that the waitress had been on her own at the time we sat down. She asked the man who had been clearing tables when we arrived if he could make a reduction, which he did, but grudgingly in attitude telling us we should have complained to the waitress. Well - just get it right in the first place - be friendly - learn how to treat food and customers well - some people find it hard to confront and complain and it spoils the whole treat of having lunch out. Nice venue, but food very average/poor and staff do not seem a happy team and it shows. Avoid.

Ordered steak and was not disappointed. Sat outside and was asked by attentive staff how my meal was. Very enjoyable.

Popped in for a couple of beers , good service and a marvellous pint

We had our wedding reception last week there, the venue, food service, communication before the wedding, professionalism and warm welcoming the staff, and all the extra things they helped us with were amazing and beyond our expectations. They did a brilliant job and thank you all for the nice night. And a special thank you to Andrew, who was a great help at all times, and one of the staff who we didn't catch the name but she helped us to send everyone home with a piece of cake in a nice box. Thank you very much all the Barluga Team Lois and Amir

Excellent service, the burgers were great, good deal with a Stella. Nice atmosphere (music possibly a tad too loud, but maybe I'm getting old). Our waitress was great, very friendly always making sure we had what we needed.

Lovely welcome and service. I ordered the chicken supreme, which was well cooked and presented, however the chicken was just a simple piece of chicken (with a juis) , not what you’d expect a supreme to be. The restaurant wasn’t very busy, so I’m unsure why there wasn’t a quality check, to ensure everything was to my liking. I would return and recommend.

Love the bar area and restaurant. Nice place for a drink. Menu has not changed for a long time and, in fact, some options have been removed. Service attentive as always, but the food was disappointing, unexciting, and overpriced for the standard of it. Overall it has just fallen and not comparable with other eateries in the Town.

Great place to hire a function room. Food was really tasty and the staff were friendly and helpful. Decor was nice and the lighting just right. All round great experience, highly recommended.

Woooow. Good Friday fish and chips were out of this world. Mmmm 🤤

Had a lovely spontaneous visit. Great, helpful and attentive staff. Food was good value and tasty. Will be back next time, highly recommended...

Came upon this little restaurant whilst travelling through Morpeth, and decided it was a really good idea, was greeted by lovely staff providing great customer service, would reccomend

We chose Morpeth food week to check out this place. The restaurant had feel Friendly staff but the offerings on the food week menu were very limited but nevertheless we were there to support the businesses and made our choices my partner jab belly pork which she left most of it was undercooked and rushed I choose soup followed by smoked haddock fish cakes which were awful they had some sort of casing around them 3 the size of golf balls were almost inedible. I managed one I gave up trying to find any fish in them very very poor quality and a disgraceful penny pinching portion we won’t be back. Perhaps the main menu would have been more generous with the portion size but we will never no. Well worth avoiding unless you’re devoid of taste buds.

Very nice food v pleasant staff

My two friends and I had an excellent experience at Barluga yesterday, Saturday 11 March. We popped in for a late lunch and we’re served by a really helpful server who gave us a friendly and supportive customer service. She was young and welcoming, and went the extra mile to ensure that I could enjoy my food without problems. ( I have several food intolerances) The food was devious and my friends and I would highly recommend this restaurant, which was relaxed with a great vibe.

We visited Barluga to celebrate my wife's birthday. We were a party of four, two of whom have lactose intolerance. The food was very tasty and of exceptional quality. We all had Barluga burgers and they were delicious and very well presented. We decided to have a sweet which included: the strawberry and white chocolate cheesecake; vegan ice cream; and the Baileys Irish Cream and white chocolate bread and butter pudding which is most definitely the best bread and butter pudding we had ever tasted. We had heard that Dan Suggate had returned to this restaurant as Head Chef so we thought we would give it a try and we weren't disappointed. A vast improvement on our experience when we last visited. The customer service was also very good. Overall, it was an excellent experience to behold.

Always excellent in here. Lovely food. In again today; excellent.

Lovely food and great friendly and efficient staff

We had not made a reservation. No problem sir, give me a moment. We were shown to a table for two. Kelsey was our lovely waitress, she was very friendly and extremely courteous. We had pork scratchings with apple purée, then followed by starters, a...

Very good sunday lunch only let down beef a bit to pink for my taste asked for past pink

Poor atmosphere, event though only 7 tables were taken, we were told we could only have a table for less than 2hrs. Chose this venue due to previous reviews of the delicious mussel offerings. Disappointed to find that mussels were ‘none left’ on a Saturday...

The food was good value for money.

Delicious starters: goats cheese and cranberry on sourdough; soup of the day, Tempura Prawns. Mains: huge basin full of mussels. 2 of the delicious hake option. None of us could fault the meals. Good wine. Service pleasant and efficient.

Nice variety of mock-tails although wish there were slightly more to choose from, could do with a deal on them since it’s about £4.25ish per mocktail, although they were nice I’m undecided on the price for fancy juice. It was my first time in there and as someone who doesn’t really go out due to not drinking I wasn’t really sure what to do when I walked in and wasn’t sure on the etiquette of how to get drinks 😂 Other than that though the drinks were nice and would return!!

Had the Christmas Dinner it was lovely and good service too.

We enjoyed the meal apart from the Christmas pudding which was awful however one of the waitresses, she was new i believe, spilt a whole lime and soda over my 83 year old mother. It was an accident and we know these things happen but my mother was absolutely soaked and had only been sat down for 10 mins. We spent over 300 as a family and i really do think as a gesture of goodwill the Manager should at least have offered a discount as a form of apology.

From start to finish we had excellent service and fabulous food / drink. All the staff were great but Andrew and Mark went above the course of duty and gave us all a night to remember. We can highly recommend Barluga Morpeth and can assure...

Perfect venue.Following our wedding on Thursday 24th November,Andrew the manager made our day so very special.Our guests plus ourselves thoroughly enjoyed the meal ambience and atmosphere.Andrew and the team treat us with such respect and friendliness and made our day thank you.The food was delicious and promise to be back very soon 😉

Staff were excellent, so cheerful and efficient. Not many in but that did not detract from the ambience. Food was quality and plentiful. First time there and will be back.

In my opinion Barluga is the best place to eat in Morpeth. Period. Fantastic food, mail meals or a bar snack, it’s all excellent with a good atmosphere. It doesn’t feel overcrowded, everyone is kept at a comfortable distance. Service is always superb, food delivery fast, and all at a very respectable price. Some reviewers have said it’s pricey. It’s not. You need to look around other eateries in Morpeth. Best value, best environment, best food and service.

I lived in Belgium and the ritual was mussels every Friday after work. I've now finally found somewhere in the UK that knows how to cook mussels. My starter was fantastic which set the tone for the rest of the meal. It was the best Sunday lunch I've had in a long time. If I move back to the coast I will come back to Morpeth for Barluga. The staff are friendly and the service excellent.

Max made me an amazing cappuccino. Very polite and hospitable!!

Lovely food. Service brilliant.

We love this Morpeth Location for our family weekend Lunch. The staff is always friendly and helpful finding space for us as family with a Disabled Son. Food is great and drinks... go for the Mojotos please. Seriously amazing 👏🏽

I tried bar Luga a couple of weeks ago and was pleasantly surprised as originally I just thought It was a cocktail bar downstairs. We took a wander upstairs and found a rather large restaurant. The decor is fabulous clean and ambient. Staff were lovely couldn't do enough for you, however a smile 😀 goes a long way :) customers remember the service they recieve. Will definitely be back in the upcoming weeks to try out some new dishes. Here's a little photo dump of some of the dishes. Beautiful food. Oh and I also realised they catered for private functions an added bonus for christenings, baby showers or small weddings.

We were looking forward to our visit to Barluga Morpeth, as we normally visit another restaurant from this chain, without any complain. It was very early evening and the restaurant was quiet but the service, even to get some drinks, was very slow. We finally...

We visit Barluga on a regular basis for drinks and food. We always receive fantastic service, especially from Andrew the assistant manager, as well as the rest of the staff. I would highly recommend a visit to Barluga Morpeth

Never had a bad experience at barluga, morpeth, food, service, staff, all exceptional,

Had a coffee here. Very friendly barista

My friend and I was so looking forward to our visit here and I'm sorry to say it was very disappointing. The service wasnt very good,3 things I ordered were unavailable. I did order the Sea Bass with crushed new potatoes. The 2 very small...
