The food was shocking and the one who was heading up front of the house was awful and homophobic and transphobic I feel sorry for all the students who are getting pushed around and getting talk to like thay are nothing but dirt

Wow wow wow, each time I visit this restaurant it just gets better!! The food this evening and the service was outstanding. This is a place that needs to be well supported as the food they produce is outstanding. The quality is fantastic, I hope to visit a lot more in the future. Canapés to start with, followed by a scallop starter which was superb. Champagne sorbet to cleanse the palette, then fillet steak which was melt in the mouth with a beautiful sauce and the side dish was gorgeous. Then dessert, loved the candied orange!! Ending with coffee and macaroons. All for less than £20, not a lot more I can say!!

Called in for a coffee and ordered a cheese scone. Coffee great but the cheese scone was microwaved and made it inedible. It looked great and I was disappointed with the result of the microwave heating. They dropped the price of the scone off the bill👍👍 Will use the city bistro again

Some friends had recommended the City Bistro so we visited for Christmas lunch and had a lovely meal. There was a good choice of dishes on the menu, so you could have something different from turkey if that wasn't what you wanted. The food was beautifully presented and the main courses (I had turkey, my partner had pork belly) had a delicious blend of flavours. The puddings were excellent, the Christmas pudding was one of the best I'd ever tasted, really moist and with lots of fruit. The staff were very friendly,enthusiastic and helpful. Looking forward to visiting again.

Been many times and always really enjoyed the food. This time was very disappointing however. My starter was chicken terrine which was bland.only the blue cheese dressing had any flavour. Nothing like the Ham hock terrines sampled in the past. Main course of sea bream was disappointing. Sauce was a bowl of liquid difficult to eat with a knife and fork! Dessert was good. Hope next visit after half term is back to normal standard.

As the title suggests the city bistro is a wonderful surprise. It was a fish menu on the evening myself, husband and friend visited the city bistro. The meal was superb we all loved every morsel and to think the people cooking and serving were students! My friend is lactose intolerant and at the time of booking we informed the restaurant of that. When we arrived and gave our name they were completely up to speed and her meal was catered for her needs. I can't praise this restaurant enough and we look forward to returning.

Blown away with the choice of menu, quality of the food and the service. It is so easy to forget this is an educational facilty and credit to Alex, Katie and thier students for providing a fantastic experience.

The bistro is lovely - clean and welcoming - beautifully furnished and set. And that’s just the start of such a lovely experience. The food was delicious - superbly cooked and presented. The service was impeccable - quite an achievement for the young first year catering students who were waiting on us under the direction of and with assistance of the manager and staff. Incredible value for money £9 for three courses, £12 for a really decent New Zealand Sauvignon blanc. I can honestly say I’ve been to so-called top class restaurants, paid three or four times the price and not had such nice food. People of Sunderland if you haven’t been here you’re missing out on the best food and best value in town.

We went to City Bistro for their "beef and beer" night (15th June 2018) and the food was so good that I have officially awarded them the award for "the best food in Sunderland". They run events such as this occasionally, this one was 5 courses with a different beer selected to compliment each course. The menu was inventive and the food was simply stunning, a rival to any restaurant. The ambience could still be improved so I am not yet ready to give them the coveted "best restaurant in Sunderland" award, but the food is superb and I would recommend this place to anyone who enjoys excellent food.

City Bistro is in a perfect location, part of Sunderland College, right in the city centre. Great ‘high end’ surroundings with a lovely ambience. The food was fabulous - very high quality & beautifully presented. Good selection of wines & other drinks. The service was really good - you can tell the staff are ‘training’ but that makes it unique & it feels really nice to be part of that & supporting it. This restaurant is equally as good as many other fine dining restaurants we have been to all over the country and it is fantastically excellent value for money. It deserves to be number 1 on trip advisor & we have no doubt it will be!

it is criminal this restaurant is not in the top 10 - its reviews are universally five star and it is unbelievably good value - probably half the price of its competitors. £10 for 2 superb courses plus excellent wine! Do NOT be deterred by its being part of the College. It is simply outstanding. The only pity is its opening hours are so limited. If it was open at the weekends and better known it would clean up. Combine a meal here with a visit to their equally fantastic spa and the salon if you want to live the high life for a more than reasonable price. Congratulations to all involved.

It is usually closed on a Sunday but they opened with a set three course meal for 15 95 and worth every penny .you had the choise of 4 starters 4 mains and 4 desserts.

never mind best in sunderland, this is a fine dining experience worthy of any city in the world. the tasting menu and chefs table is a real treat. the chefs table is a lovely raised spot in the corner of the kitchen, and watching the chefs calmy create these dishes is quite therapeutic. the head chef spends a considerable amount of time chatting about the set up with the college, the food, the restaurant and supplements it with a casual tour of the kitchen, which is an interesting side to the main event. the students show great composure and skill, meaning the high quality dishes are served at incredible value. wine tasting included for an extra £10 is also well worth the effort, as 5 glasses paired with the food adds another dimension. anyone interested in fine dining, and real quality, imaginative food, needs not leave sunderland now. 10/10. bravo

We were genuinely surprised that it was so quiet, we could only surmise the training element or the location inside the college could put people off. This should'nt however as you can just walk in or make a reservation and the staff are very welcoming. The food is cleverly presented and perfectly cooked-delicious! The staff were also very efficient and friendly- this place is now our go to restaurant, the best prize we have ever won!

Visited City Bistro for the first time with my family for Mother's Day. When I was told where we were going I must admit I wasn't expecting much but I turned out to be completely wrong. The restaurant itself is inviting, relaxed and modern (despite some iffy music) and for £13.95 for 3 courses it turned out to be unbelievable value for money. A good choice of starters great mains and delicious sounding desserts. The starter of salmon was nice enough but the sirloin of beef as a main was lovely. Big portions lots of veg and a massive Yorkshire pudding to top it off. The addition of cauliflower cheese as a side dish was a huge hit with the table! Desserts also went down a treat! As its a training restaurant there was bound to be a few minor grumbles... It would have been nice to be asked if we wanted more drinks half way through the meal as we had empty glasses.. But then again.. We didn't ask! We also may have had tea and coffee after dessert if we were asked but again we weren't. On the whole it was a great experience and the fact that the staff are students and just learning was never even an issue, it was that good! I would recommend this restaurant to anyone and it's nice to see a bit of class in Sunderland at last.

It has to be said that in the normal course of events, fine dining and Sunderland are not usual bed fellows. The city has some great Thai, Italian, Indian etc but if you want something a bit special you had to go further afield. Until now.

First time at this recently opened Bistro at Sunderland College. Very impressed with the layout and choice of tables. There were six ladies for lunch. The lunch time special menu was lovely apart from the veggie choice which was not to one ladies taste but the manager was very attentive and brought the a la carte menu from which a choice was found. Those that had wine found it to their taste and at a reasonable price. Carafes of iced water with lemon were brought while making our selections and a basket of freshly made bread rolls were delicious! The desserts were spot on and a lady appeared with samples of macaroons that were being made in the kitchen and explained what they hoped to achieve with the Bistro and up and coming spa & shop. we had a lovely long lingering lunch with lots of chat being attended to by two lovely helpful waitresses with no pressure to vacate our table!

First visit here. Lovely ‘proper’ pub with lots of history. Greeted warmly upon arrival and drinks brought to our table. Got the steak and ale pie with veg and mash. Absolutely delicious and home cooked, no microwave meals here. Dessert was ginger pudding which was knockout. Staff were all lovely and we were made welcome. I told them we would be back and we will. It was excellent.
