Absolutely amazing, if you bring your children, get them the Children's Treat - it's fantastic value. Everyone was brilliant and the great portion sizes were only surpassed by the quality of the food!

Fantastic quirky little venue. 50s themed. Young staff who were lovely, enthusiastic and with a smile on their face...in Britain of 2024 wow 👌 Novel ideas ie menu on a 1950s ration book. Big portions and wide selection of food , cakes et al Live singer performing 50s classics just added to the ambience and made for a great stop on a rainy sunday

We were looking forward to this place because of its quirkiness and the brilliant reviews, but we must have caught them on a bad day. Service was fine but the marble cake I ordered was dry and hard, seemingly not fresh by mre than just a day. I immediately let the waitress know, and they brought a different cake at my request, but I was surprised to see that the remaining half of the marble cake was left in the display cabinet, I guess to serve to future customers! The replacement cake I had was fine.

Well worth a visit here, if you are local or someone visiting the area. Pleasant friendly staff, with great service. A good choice of food on the menu, and always a popular tea room. Also being dog friendly there is a separate seating area inside where you can take them with you. Doggie Sausages are available for your pooch. Pawtastic.

Unusual 2nd world war era feel to this place, with faux ration book style menus and decor. Breakfast was both tasty and good value... I went for the double full English and didn't have enough space to finish the toast... So portions do not disappoint. Warm welcome and friendly staff look after you. Will definitely return.

Called today with 4 other friends. Food was lush but service very lax, first drink came 35 mins later -tea for two but came with only one cup. Waited 15 mins for the accompanying scones and then a second cup. Loose tea and two soups, one soup came after that and 10 mins later my loose tea and then soup, in the end I had to sit alone to finish my lunch as my friends had appointments so had to leave. Not good especially as it wasn't complicated and we all ordered at the same time. Hopefully things will improve before our next visit!

Always a warm welcome when you arrive. There may be a short wait until you get seated but never more than a few moments. A small threshwood between reception/till area and cafe is always pointed out when you go between the two for H&S reasons and taken to an available table where you are given three vintage looking menus which is a great start to your dining experience as well as the softly played background music of the 40's/50's era. Special menus displayed on the wall are indicated. There are fabulous tea room choices on the menu from both hot and cold selections. Any dietary requirements could be met and you can even phone in advance to ask if they can serve a particular dish. Always polite, always friendly, staff. Our favourite tea room of all time in a wonderful location in the market Square overlooking the controversial "siege tower" Auckland project neighbouring the entrance walls of Auckland Castle and the Mining Museum.

Had just visited the Spanish Gallery just along the road ,and called off a light lunch and a cuppa. We had quiche two different flavours with a small side salad both were tasty.

The food here was extremely disappointing. I ordered the cake of the day which was supposed to be a raspberry ripple cake. I could not taste raspberry. It had far too much icing and tasted of nothing. The macchiato was more of a mocha and was served in a huge mug. The food for this cafe needs seriously re-thinking. It has a lot of potential. I did manage to get a refund for the cake so that was a relief.

What a gem Fifteas is! The service was really good & the staff are so friendly. Being one of the few dry days for a month we sat outside for coffee & toasted teacake, both good. The crockery is an eclectic mix which I feel gives a homely touch. My husband (79) was sat under a speaker quietly playing 50s music (unobtrusive) & I could hardly get him to move on. We will definitely visit again when in Bishop Auckland

Loved the 50's theme, staff were friendly and welcoming. A special thank you to Louis who was polite and courteous. We visited here with our eldest nephew on whose recommendation we chosen here for our lunch. The nephew chose the "Mozzarella, Sun Blush Tomatoes and Green Pesto Panini", whilst the other half opted for the "Corned Beef Hash and Chips" and I went for the pie of the day which was "Homemade Chicken and Mushroom" served with chips and peas. The Hash and Pie came with a large gravy boat of tasty homemade gravy. All the food was tasty and enjoyed by us all. Whilst for drinks we opted for a "Fresh Orange Juice", a bottle of "Fentimans Ginger Beer" and a "Special Hot Chocolate Drink".

Been here several times with good service etc which made this disappointing visit all the worse. Dogs get a free sausage on Wet Nose Wednesday...... or not as we found out. To be blunt the staff were too busy chatting fifty to the dozen at the counter to all and sundry about the Food Festival and how well they could do out of it .... Great, I hope they do but in the meantime what about paying customers? We ordered coffee and cake and were seated in the 'doggy area' , absolutely fine. We were told twice that the sausage for our dog would be with us in a minute... Never happened !! Should I have got up and asked? Nah, I didn't want to interrupt the constant chattering.... which continued with not even a " Thank you " when we finished our coffee and cakes , left and said ' thank you' on the way out. Very rude. Good luck with the Food Festival, as you told everyone hopefully it'll rain and you'll be busy. Not sure we'll be going back to Fifteas though. Ignoring customers and not even thanking them for their custom is not an endearing trait in the hospitality business.
