Cragside Tea Shop in Northumberland

Fantastic food at good prices. Lots of vegetarian/vegan options, for those who look for that.

Exactly what you expect from a National Trust cafe, good food, good service and nice staff

Lovely cafe with friendly staff. Good service

Rainy day. A courtyard with large cafe. Good

It's a cafe with a limited menu. What they do is fine. Nothing amazing but not disappointing. That's probably the best you can expect in from a high volume catering place. Limited inside seating and some open and partially covered outdoor seating in the stable yard.

Much improved menu since my last visit. Very quick service. Lots of people clearing tables. Impressed.

Sat in courtyard to eat lunchtime snack

Normal national trust menu in lovely surroundings.

Went in today and wasn't expecting anything to be allergen friendly but I was really happy to see that there were a few vegan options on the menu. The server (i didn't catch his name) but he was lovely and so helpful when it came to allergens and even came back to mention my cake may contain milk; so didn't want to chance it. Love the fact they offered alternative milks in both coffee shops as well. Also the young lass serving at the little coffee shop actually under cragside house was lovely and also really helpful yet again when it came to the milk allergy. Both these staff went above and beyond and didn't make me feel like a burden.

Recently upgraded servery is an improvement but menu less unique than before. Indoor and outdoor seating.

I want so hard to like this cafe, but really struggle to recommend it. We visited on a busy day and it was proper unmanaged bonkers. No tables, not enough staff, food...was okay but nothing to write home about. Staff were lovely and tried to help, but the biggest issue is too little space for too many people. It's meant to be National Trust and relaxed cafe with good relaxed vibes. None of this happened.

You won't get the cheapest meal ever but it's nice and service is good.

Lovely tea shop in a beautiful national trust house. A must visit.

A typical National Trust tearooms. Snacks and cakes are all good, but nothing extraordinary.

The tea shop is nice offering seating indoors and outside in the courtyard. Food selections covered both hot and cold food options. We had a toastie and a pastie, both were excellent. The toastie came in at £7.95 it came with salad. It felt a little on the expensive side. However,there are picnic tables too so visitors can choose what works best for them.

We visit cragside often, the tea shop has been reorganised with a much better layout which makes more space . Staff are friendly and attentive, as for food we only have cake and coffee/cold drinks (can't really comment on the rest)

lovely food good assortment nice staff

Lovely breakfast bap and coffee at a reasonable price in a fabulous location

Since our last visit in September the cafe has had a makeover which gives it a fresh feeling. The limited (for early January) menu was good and the staff as welcoming and friendly as ever.

Staff are pleasant, it's a bit of a chaotic system which always seems to get clogged up by the coffee machine queue. There's a lovely courtyard and picnic area next to the lake. Food is all good but I've been unlucky twice with the scones being very dry. Don't let that put you off though, just maybe resist the scones..

Always looking forward to the food
