Chimes Café in County Durham

My friend took me here recently and it really is a lovely little local. The menu is varied and the food is tasty which is why I was shocked at the price, it's all so cheap, 8 quid for a roast is really great value! The staff were lovely and the place was absolutely spotless. If you're looking for a cafe with no pretentious, a place where you can just be yourself and not have to perform like an animal in a zoo, then this is the place for you.

been down today for some food, their food is unbelievable, they are so friendly

I love this place this staff are amazing I come here all the time now I love the food and it's not too pricey

Very friendly staff and good hygiene. A good menu for a café.

When I had a seizure in the bus station the staff of Chimes cafe were there to help.

Good wholesome food. Attentive service.

I had an incredible dining experience at Chimes Café in Peterlee Bus Station! The home-cooked food was absolutely delightful, and the corned beef pie, chips, and gravy were exceptional. The flavors were rich and satisfying, and the warm, welcoming ambiance made the meal even more enjoyable. I highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for delicious comfort food in a cozy setting. Five stars all the way! I'll definitely be returning for more of their delectable dishes. A 5-star gem for anyone craving a satisfying, home style meal!

I always enjoy coming here the food is delicious and the staff are nice and friendly

Not happy with meber of staff Paula no customer service skills not the normal cafe ya walk in too

Great staff hot fresh name food good prices worth a look dinners looked great

Came through with the elderly in laws and amazing service, put a smile right back on or faces. Thank you

A great cafe experience. Good food, reasonable prices and friendly staff. It's so handy being in the bus station as I can't walk very far. It's my favourite place to visit for breakfast or lunch. Breakfast is great, traditional English.

Lovely food, reasonably priced, whats not to like?

Breakfast is always great .. spoiled for choice .. atmosphere always great ... Happy friendly staff

Lovely breakfast. Very friendly staff. Been. Twice. Now and. Will. Be. Back

Excellent cafe in a great location right inside the bus station. The staff are very friendly, the food is excellent, the menu is large and it has a great layout with free wi-fi. Would definitely recommend.

Lovely homemade and hot food! Generous portions. Service is fabulous. Very attentive waitresses, never had a problem. We come from Sherburn hill to Chimes!

Visited today for dinner and was pleasantly surprised. Only looks small from outside but lots of room (3 rooms in fact) nicely set out and lovely clean cheerful place. Wheelchair friendly. Friendly staff and tasty food. Average price so don't break the bank for a tasty meal. Selection of childrens meals £3.50 each. I'll definitely be a frequent customer.

Gorgeous food reasonably priced and lovely staff definitely recommend it

“Proper” Homemade food! Lovely quiche and chips, tempting cheese cake. Wouldn’t go anywhere else in Peterlee

I found this place as my car was in garage and I had the mince and dumpling it was that perfect I came back and every time I do come they never fail the customer service the food and the the staff are all fantastic I been using cafes for a while but chimes cafe is one of the best I found

Table service reasonably priced freshly made could not fault. Great little cafe ideally located just inside bus station try it you will not be disappointed

Both wife and I had cooked breakfast only thing wrong was I don't like mushrooms or tomatoes so I asked for extra egg if possible which ever she didn't say no I have had it in past other than that everything was great

The Breakfast was Divine, cooked to perfection. The toast was just the right amount of toastiness, the Hash Browns were Glorious, the staff were wonderful, allowing me to swap and change components of the breakfast. 5 Hash Browns = 5 Stars

Delicious bacon sandwich and friendly staff

Always a busy Café with pleasant staff who serve good food, but I think it's too early to not wear masks or take down the the Safety screen down from the counter.

I am not from the area popped in this morning to meet a colleague but I have to say staff are very friendly service was fantastic very clean including the toilets great selection of food we recommend 😀 👌

Brilliant cafe, cheap prices, great service, highly recommend the homemade chips.

Lovely cafe and friendly staff best mince and dumplings I ever tasted from a cafe

Just been in had a big breakfast one of the best iv had in a long time lovely staff and a very helpfully older man in a blue shirt getting the wasps 😁💖

Passing through Peterlee to get bus to Newcastle stopped to have coffee and Quiche which was excellent staff lovely and a special Thank You for going over and above finding and returning my friends phone ..will definetly visit again .Stay safe and Thanks again .

Breakfast's are freshly made (apart from the beans/tomotoes) the staff and k8nd and helpful. As soon as this café opene i was staight there to try them and i've been going there a few time but due to Covid-19, i haven't been there unfortuntley (sorry i can't spell, i'm still half a sleep)

Local family business. Lovely home cooked food and outstanding desserts. Specials board change frequently from roasts, curries and homemade pies. They serve freshly make wraps and baked potatoes for vegetarians. Also hand cut fresh chips and the ice cream sundaes are always lovely. Staff are always so friendly. Highly recommend.

Absolutely fantastic as always, they’re lovely, kind, hardworking people, the cafe is modern and spacious. It’s a friendly atmosphere and the food is always perfectly cooked. I would wholeheartedly recommend Chimes Cafe to anyone. ~Liam

Super beef dinner, served by lovely staff.

You won't find a better meal for that price anywhere. The best thing about Peterlee.

Nice friendly cafe with reasonable prices

Only went to buy a cold drink fot the bus but even though the queue was small it took too long to get served. Definitely not somewhere to go when you are in a hurry.

Awesome food. Reasonable prices, especially the mince and dumplings.
