Flamingo Bar and Cafe in County Durham - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Sorry to say it was £37 pound down the drain the 3 coffees were luke warm and our poached eggs were snotty with wet bread what a shame people can't afford to pay for poor quality food these days

Visited many times now and has become one of our favourites for a Sunday morning brunch. Service is very personable and friendly, food is always lovely and the coffee is lush too. Great setting down next to the beach! Parking can be busy but only a 2 minute walk from the Main Street in Seaham. One small thing, please put more satay sauce on the satay chicken… maybe I’m being greedy but it’s seriously good 👌

Looked for dog friendly cafes and this was looking good so decided to pay it a visit with our border terrier. On arrival, all tables were taken but the waitress offered me a table outside on the understanding I could move inside when one became available (I hate cold food). Managed to get a table inside soon after then ordered eggs benedict, doggy breakfast (sausage & scrambled egg) as well as a flat white. Food was well presented and very tasty & our dog loved his (chasing the paper plate around most of the cafe!) Staff were lovely and made a fuss of our dog. Well worth a visit.

Food was amazing coffee were perfect and the staff are very nice had such an amazing time there. !!!

This place was a really great find. The menu is really lovely and the service is so friendly and quick. It's not easy to find somewhere that does fresh clean food outside of big cities, which is what makes this place such a gem. Will definitely be back and bringing others too. What a view as well.

We were recommended to visit as we are not from the area, just wanted a coffee and cake which was great as as soon as we walked in we were told foods finished. Server wasn't the chirpiest but hey ho. We opted for bakewell flapjacks which looked amazing......they were!! Cute little venue, was shocked to be told that there are no customer toilets in or indeed anywhere near the cafe but a 5 minute walk through the car park and to the marina. Can only imagine how annoying this must be for families with small children. I thought any establishment that serves food and drink for 10 customers or more had to provide a loo. Flapjacks....moreish. Everything else, facilities, customer service.....just okay.

Gorgeous little place with dreamy views. Ordered the Fresca l think it was called. Absolutely delicious! Fantastic flavours! Pretty blonde girl served us. She was extremely friendly, polite and very chatty, which we loved! Had my husband and l in a kink laughing! Knowledgable about the menu too. We overheard she was called Sarah so would just like to thank her again for a 5 star meal and service! Can’t wait to come back and try some more of this wonderful menu.

Visited today with my sister and we were served by Beth. She was very helpful with her sunny personality and went above and beyond for us and gave great advice on what food to try for brunch. We ordered the Eggs Benedict and the Fresca on her recommendation which was cooked fantastically by Liv the chef. The Eggs Benedict in particular was delicious with its Siracha hollandaise which added a lovely spice to the sauce. Both myself and my sister also had the bee pollen latte which was lovely, and we both left with a sweet treat to take home. Would highly recommend Flamingo for the wonderful staff, warm and welcoming atmosphere and tasty food on offer by the sea in Seaham!

Firstly our dish was full of fresh ingredients it was presented well, the taste was a fantastic combination of flavour a well balanced salad. Bursting with freshness.

This place is a hidden gem….. love everything about it… the food is amazing,the atmosphere is fantastic with sea views and the staff are so helpful and friendly I just can’t fault it…

Fab food; lovely service; great range to choose from and what a kooky little place! Seaside view too: everyone should visit: we will return.

We visit Flamingo cafe in it’s beautiful setting weekly for Sunday lunch and it never fails to impress. Today Liv made garlicky avo on toast it was not only delicious but good wholesome clean food. The foods so delicious we always take a desert home for later which was white chocolate and raspberry bar and peanut butter bar. All of the servers including Beth are extremely pleasant and very friendly. Definitely worth a try energiser smoothie, eggs Benedict’s and Korean pulled pork on flat bread.

First visit but definitely not our last. Dog friendly inside and out, extensive breakfast and brunch options, lots of vegetarian GF and vegan choice. Our americanos were in gorgeous big mugs and the salted caramel cruffin divine. We were served by Beth who was helpful and friendly.

We have been to flamingo cafe a number of times and never been disappointed! The food and service is always amazing and we are always excited to come back.

Lush view and lush coffee! Really friendly staff and a menu with enough options for multiple visits.

Gorgeous place & gorgeous food. Thank you to Beth our server who was lovely and very friendly. Would highly recommend the garlicky avo toast & honey nut iced latte!

Absolutely gorgeous food, and lovely staff! Beth served us and it was absolutely perfect from start to finish. Will definitely be returning.

First to arrive for breakfast Monday morning with my family as we had a day off. We all wanted their açai bowls and some smoothies, to be told none of the blenders work and they couldn’t make them. Sorry but if I had 8 menu...

As always amazing food and service…. Such a lovely friendly place in a lovely setting ….also dogs are always welcome…..

The food and drink here used to be great, but when we visited last week, we were a bit disappointed. They have change the menu and vegan / the more healthy options seem to have been removed. The drinks are still nice, but often take...

Disappointed with our visit today ..staff weren't helpful at all & dont think they smiled once .. hot coffee was served in a glass with no handle and too hot to pick up ..asked for a serviette to hold it..they had ran out ! Wanted...

Waiting for order were asked to move outside be member of the staff as we were taking away,coffee fetched outside no sugar added told to go back in for sugar,(and block doorway again)quite ignorant really. Can't recommend it to anyone.

Absolutely LOVE it here!!! The food is gorgeous - soooo tasty and the drinks are lovely too 🌈 Such a gorgeous location right next to the sea and the staff are super friendly too, will be returning ☺️☺️

The food & coffee is absolutely excellent. The staff are all lovely and the location is top notch.

We regularly come here with friends and family, it’s a lovely place to meet & grab a coffee or lunch. Current fave on the menu is the garlicky chicken, but my own recommendation would be bring back the bang bang chicken!! We loved it 😋...

The perfect bite to eat by the sea! Food is always lovely and staff friendly ☺️ great range of food choices and all dietary requirements catered for!

New menu for spring! This is my all time favourite place to eat in Seaham and I’ve been to all of the eateries around here. The food is so delicious- healthy yes but unusual and exciting combinations of flavours, lots of vegan and GF choices...

What an amazing place!!!! I visited here with my two daughters last week and the food was out out this world..... fresh, delicious and reasonably priced!! I had whipped feta with sourdough.... I was actually sad when it was over!! My youngest daughter had dippy...

Although this is a lovely spot (location & selection of healthy meals) the food was below average & expensive for what you got. Very small portions both food & smoothies. Unfortunately this was the 3rd time we visited and didn’t see any changes.

The food looks great and it's in a beautiful location but don't call in if you haven't got all day to wait for the service. I waited nearly an hour before I had to just leave for an appointment. Annoying because I was starving and,...

Arrived in Seaham and this was our first port of call. Situated near the harbour we were pleasantly surprised with the menu. All dishes beautifully presented in a small property and delicious.

Wow absolutely amazing! Healthy food that tastes so nice. Gorgeous surrounding with sea views. Staff were very attentive and friendly. Definitely back soon

Lovely spot on the beach in Seaham with amazing healthy food. Plenty choice on the menu, something for everyone. Helpful and friendly staff, 100% recommend.

I have been visiting flamingo since day one and it never fails to disappoint. We visited over the weekend and there is always something new on the menu to try. This time we went for eggs benedict and the poke bowl (which is now my...

Truly beautiful place! The food is lovely! The staff are amazing and the decor is outstanding! The must if your in seaham

I have visited the Flamingo a few times and have thoroughly enjoyed each visit. You can order via the QR code or pay cash at the tills. My go to is the granola bowls which are super tasty and filling. The poached eggs are also...

I’ve been here a few times and always order the same thing (creature of habit) which was a latte and the sweet potato hash. I really should try something different as there is a great variety of gorgeous fresh food to choose from. Pretty views...

5/5! Food, service and surroundings = amazing! One of my favourite brunch spots in the North-East! The food is delicious, nutritious and super pretty too. The perfect spot for breakfast with the girls, family trips, dates and even events! Gorgeous location right by the beach...

Amazing food, gorgeous views and the best coffee around! Hannah is always smiling and makes an effort with customers! Can’t wait for the summer on the terrace!

It was a cold day today, when we called in, by chance, as it was the only cafe that would let our Labrador in . We only had a coffee, but we will definitely return . Lovely friendly staff and the food looked great ....

Never had a problem when we visit Flamingo Bar and cafe. Food is always great and nutritious. Prices have risen a little bit over time but I guess that's the same for most places in this day an age. There is seating inside of the...

The biggest fault to be found for this cafe is the SHOCKING customer service and unfriendly attitude of the staff. Upon arrival they look at you as if to say what are you doing here and have to ask if you can sit down to...

A lunch break from walking the beach. A quaint cafe tucked away in the harbour. The wait for food was 20 minutes but when it arrived it was tasty and of a good quality. You have to order by a QR code but the waitress...

If you want to pay by card you have to use the QR ordering. I didn’t have any data but they kindly let me use their WiFi. Food took a long time to come but was very nice when it did. Lots of veggie and...

Cash only at till, QR code system for outdoor service, 50p service charges whacked on Nice food but the girl (dark hair) behind the counter was rude and unhelpful!!! Wouldn’t return purely for that reason…….if your going to work in a customer facing role some...

Popped in on a visit from Leeds, great location just at seaham harbour, sat outside lovely view of the sea ordered a bagel £8.50 abit steep but there you go, food was nice unfortunately the service just lacked, they all stood inside talking there was...

The food was amazing 🤩 ordered it to takeout and was promptly ready for collection. Ordered the Thai Crunch which was exactly what it said it would be. Nice and spicy but not to much. Will definitely be returning

If you are wanting to go to a cafe which provides a very “picturesque “ setting then this is place. This cafe is situated right next to the beach and has some lovely scenic views. The food itself I couldn’t really fault - we had...

Came to flamingo for a breakfast and coffee. No staff giving information on the ordering procedure. Kind of work it out yourself attitude. Drinks (coffees) arrived after ordering on the app luke warm. Food then arrived after some time. Food was good I have to...

Visited Flamingo this morning for a healthy breakfast, lots of choice on the menu and something for everyone. I would highly recommend the bulletproof breakfast, it was delicious!

Small but nice place good food dog friendly and very popular especially on warm days. The down side for me is you order food via an App, grand if your under 30 or a regular but bit of a hassle if you've just popped in...

A huge menu with so many great looking dishes it was really hard to choose! They cater brilliantly for vegetarians and vegans, so many choices and all made to a high standard. The location is lovely and the food was fantastic.

My husband and I just love this place! The staff are always so positive and accommodating, they’re always really friendly and attentive to our children and our dogs! We love the cakes and hazelnut lattes, and mostly watching the amazing waves in gorgeous surroundings. Photo...

We came in today to get warmed through after a walk with the dog. The setting is fantastic with great views of the rolling waves. I found the list of instructions a bit stark and unwelcoming which was a shame. We are in our 60s...

Visited recently and can’t fault the food, presented amazing and great quality, if as much effort was put into their customer service it would have been a much better experience. We weren’t sure if dogs were allowed inside at first so asked a member of...

This is a lovely spot for a drink by the main beach in Seaham. Lovely choice of food and drink that caters for people with special dietary needs or who choose to eat ‘clean’. The only thing I would say is that the contactless ordering...

A beautiful place to have a quiet coffee and sit with the family 🐶 dog! Always made to feel welcome and a lovely view ! Cakes are delicious 😋

Such a lovely cafe with amazing views and staff. The food is always super fresh and delicious! The menu is very different with loads of choices to choose from - the Buddha bowl has to be my favorite ❤️ I highly recommend a visit 🦩

If you're addicted to your smart phone and love to look at a screen most of the day, this is the place for you. For some reason they have stopped taking card payments and you must order food on their app, and then they charge...

We visited on a Sunday morning. Flamingo had a lovely atmosphere. The staff were so friendly and helpful. Charlie dog loved his dog breakfast too❤️

Amazing service and food ....this is the first time we have been back since lockdown and it didn't disappoint. Amazing terrace, relaxed atmosphere would definitely recommend.

Visited for brunch and although i had heard really good reviews it surpassed my expectations. Breakfast burrito was divine. Porridge bowl was really good but huge ! Cant wait to go again.

Food is unreal, staff are lovely and deserve a lot of credit for how amazing it is. It’s nice to be able to go someone that cater healthy but delicious food. Never fails. Best place ever

Lovely location with fantastic views, excellent and super quick service from a very friendly team. Great menu! Definitely recommend porridge bowls 😋 Will be back again very soon!! Thanks for a lovely experience!

Flamingo never disappoints! The food is amazing and with so much choice on the menu there is always something new to try. The views are sensational and the staff always have smiles on their faces. Definitely worth a visit.

I love this place. The atmosphere is fresh and contemporary. Menu is delicious and coffee and skinny latte superb. The staff seem to enjoy working here and are helpful and courteous..even sharing joke or too.

Fantastic food, fantastic service! Perfect spot for a coffee, lunch or cake. Highly recommend. I’ll be back!

Lovely location, friendly staff and nice to find a good healthy food in Sunderland. Would highly recommend.

Every visit to Flamingo has always been 10/10, very friendly staff and possibly the best coffee and cakes! Also great service during the pandemic where they still worked and offered takeouts to all customers regardless of the unfortunate situation. Will definitely be back :)

I come here all the time with my girlfriend and my daughter and we all love it! The building aesthetic is the best in the area and the atmosphere compliments it perfectly. Their meal prep service is the best in the area too! 10/10 food...

Best place on Seaham Marina. Love it. Been regularly and never disappoints. Would recommend a visit, you will not regret it.

My absolute favourite place ever, I've probably had every dish from the menu so far and they're all amazing. The vibes are immaculate, they're dog friendly, the views are insane, staff are lovely. And not to mention their coffee is the best around!!! Now pls...

Amazing food, lovely friendly service and very eye catching decor… Always made to feel welcome and at home when visiting the cafe! Naughty or nice flamingo have something for everyone, love the place!!

Been to the cafe many times, I can honestly say I have always had good service and just as important excellent food. Is is nice to see a place that offers healthy food with gluten free options. The last time I went was to a...

I was struggling to find anywhere decent to get vegan food during my stay in Seaham but I came across this place on the Happy Cow App. I ordered ahead via the cafes website and it was really easy and straightforward. There was plenty of...

On a day so cold that my nose was the colour of a Flamingo, I was really looking forward to trying Flamimgo in seaham today for a hot drink using an app. First impressions are that it's had a lot of time and thought put...

Came to Flamingo for a takeaway coffee. As we went to enter the shop, there was a sign saying “Pre-Orders” to the right. This was confusing as it looks like you are meant to go to the right in a one-way system but this made...

Really went out of their way to accommodate my specific dietary requirements ( gluten and dairy free) and everyone very personable and helpful. Lovely, comfy spot to watch the activity on the beach.

It is actually really annoying to write this review, as Flamingo Cafe is somewhere I have been and ordered from multiple times now but sadly from my last visit I will not be returning. We ordered food to be collected at a certain time and...

The first time I went it was pre-covid so we sat in, lovely food, good service, bit of a wait but its just a small place and they do get busy. Second visit was post-covid so collection only but you could still sit outside to...

Three of us went to Flamingo today - it was a sunny Sunday afternoon and honestly it was perfect! The staff are absolutely amazing, very attentive, clearly aware of the health and safety requirements around COVID-19 however they made everything feel so relaxed and calm....

Great venue. The sun was shining on the outside seating area and it was a great visit. Fabulous tasting coffee at the right price. Service good Free parking on site Great view

Called in for lunch with a friend. I had a loaded potato which was served with a few green salad leaves. Part of the potato was not fully cooked. My friend had an omelette, which she enjoyed. I certainly did not feel full after eating...

Having been to the Flamingo cafe on a few occasions now we have been impressed on each visit. Good is good quality and healthy too with plenty of options available. There is a good choice of coffees, teas, smoothies and protein shakes available too. Clean...

Nice enough place but the food and drinks are extremely overpriced for what u actually get - expected a lot more than what we got.

Nice little cafe near marina. Had a chicken, avocado, tomato and onion open sandwich on sourdough. Never tried anything like that before but was absolutely delicious. Service was friendly. Seating outside with blankets to keep the cold out and the tables doubled as little ‘dog...

Delightful little restaurant in a really great location. Enjoyed the falafel with Homemade beetroot hummus dip. The breads were good too. Great selection of coffees. Will be back!

Located on the seafront down by the marina, this place was hopping! We went in and ordered 2 cappacinno's and a slice of date/tumeric/lemon/ginger/orange slice. Right overlooking the sea, inside and outside eating available, dog friendly in such a way that I have never seen....

Drove down towards the harbour and came across this place which seemed ideal with a free car park outside. However Note: there are no toilets on site you have to go down to the end of the harbour to the public toilets which wasnt ideal...

I had always wanted to visit here after seeing their instagram. It is in a strange place and it takes finding. Arrived and I enjoyed the decor. We sat down on a table and ordered at the bar. Got a mix berry drink and a...

Fantastic little place with a view of the sea, staff are lovely and the food is fantastic. All the food is fresh and light, good choice to choose from. Will definitely be back!

I’ve struggled to find anywhere local that serves Acai bowls but pleased I found this place. The peanut butter is a nice touch. Staff were friendly. It’s a shame the weather prevented sitting outside on the sea front during my visit.

Visited recently with my friend and my little 7month old. Not sure I’d have chosen it as it’s super healthy and I’m not overly but my friend loves her health food and had been looking forward to trying the place so I was happy to...

What a lovely place. Recommended to us by the man in the” little refill shop” seaham- so visit there too! We arrived at closing time almost but staff very friendly and happy to serve us. I had a delicious vegan cake and a golden latte....

Loved how 'Dog friendly' this cafe was, even had a dog house as part of the outside table, lots of treats and water. Human food was amazing, and very healthy with lots of options on the menu. I had salmon with a small hot potatoes...

After a walk on the beach we popped up to the Flamingo. Lovely seating with dog bowls, dog biscuits, even dog kennels under the table and even places to hook your lead. I had a ‘Super food salad’ and my friend salmon with a Jacket...

Staff care about friends and family More than paying customers. and they where on there phones constant very unprofessional 3rd time one young lady had a very bad attitude towards me and my boyfriend I’ve been here and seen the same stuff it’s going down...

Lovely food, lovely setting (overlooking the beach) and lovely atmosphere. Will definitely visit again.

A delightful cafe by the Seaham seaside, run by professional and caring staff 👌😁 hot 🔥 coffee ☕ with alternative varieties of milks to suit all dietary requirements. The menu is full of scrumptious looking food that suits all taste buds 💜. It appears to...

we stopped here as we had the dog with us. nice cafe good menu for food and drinks. we just had drinks. not badly priced. inside and outside seating. outside under the bigger tables they have wooden doghouses which is a good idea. lovely views...
