We stayed at the Hilton Garden Inn over the bridge but didn't want breakfast in our room so wandered over the bridge to find Biz R. Lovely coffee and tea, friendly staff, and the sausage baps were amazing! Went back the following day for breakfast again before heading off. We visited last year when our son graduated from Sunderland uni and standards are just as good and we would recommend to all. Lovely atmosphere inside, obviously a place locals love. In relation to Covid 19 they had plenty of hand sanitiser around, took track and trace information on arrival and tables were well spaced out. See you when we come back to visit again in the winter 😊

Came here with the family for a snack and a cuppa...staff were friendly and very prompt...even asking for more milk for my cuppa wasn't a issue...some places you go to.they just moan and mutter under their breath...been a couple of times now and it's become my fav cuppa place...prices are on par with other establishments ...so don't moan about cuppa prices...tea actually was tea and not some stewed slop served from a urn...well done staff!

After living away from the NE for almost 5 years we were looking forward to going back to our favourite coffee shop. I was diagnosed with Coealic disease a few years ago and this was our first time in the coffee shop since then. Ordered coffees and a toastie for my husband only to be told that they stock nothing gluten free apart from jacket potato. I did not want a hot meal only a snack. In this day and age Coealic disease is not a rare condition and all good cafes etc should stock something suitable to eat. Nearly every place we have been has had something, even if it is a pre wrapped chocolate brownie. Come on B-Zar get with the times! Unfortunately this will stop us coming back to a cafe we once loved.

So I looked at the menu and I thought i would go for a breakfast bun with a coffee. The bacon and sausage sandwich was 3.55 and the coffee was 2.05. So I thought ok (expecting something quite special. The coffee was luke warm. The buttie was as good (at best) than a greggs buttie, which is more than half the price. Wouldnt recommend and will not come back

On my last visit I complained about the poor customer service when ordering at the till. I had been to Caffe Nero earlier...nobody engages with a queue of customers like they do..brilliant.Much improved service today from Biz-R but it could be a lot better.Send your staff to Caffe Nero on their dinner break..Smile, Speak ,Serve. That's the way to do it!

Everyone time I come in here I notice the same thing.When you stand at the till to be served you are ignored,not acknowledged and left to wait until they are ready to serve you.That happened today,instead of the lad acknowledging you and saying with a smile! I won't be a minute..he spent ages on the phone..sorting something out with not the slightest interest in the queue waiting to be served.Whoever runs the place needs to realise that customers are keeping them in business and should be treat properly and not arrogantly taken for granted.I'll try again but if it doesn't improve I'll not be back.
