IKEA Restaurant in Gateshead

Fantastic value for a good breakfast. Lots of choice. Lots of tables. Can't go wrong for a quick meal.

Quality food and reasonable prices.

Nice food. Great value for money

Tried their Swedish meatballs with mashed potatoes, peas and gravy which was great. Loved the creaminess of the mashed potato. Also tried their fish n chips which came with peas and tartar sauce. Fish n chips were good and went well with the tartar sauce. Lastly tried their Daim cake for dessert. This was my first time trying out Daim cake and I absolutely loved it! Food is cheap and their portion sizes are good too.

So much depends on what time of day you go... Expect a bit of a wait in queues at peak lunchtime, but the rest of the time it's quick.

Meatballs, mash, peas and gravy Lovely

Speedy. Cheap. Simple. You know what you’re getting with IKEA it’s usually meatballs and it’s usually good.

Ikea have been running a half price offer on their menu on a Friday, so you can get 12 meatballs, mash & peas for under £3 or fish & chips for £3.50. There is also a salmon fillet option with some sort of beans concotion - tried that before, wasn't impressed. We visited this week. I decided to try the fish & chips. It is supposed to be haddock. I found the fish to be very dry & unpalatable. Chips are french fries style, choice of garden or mushy peas with slice of lemon & tartare sauce. For the money I suppose it is a meal. Also I had a query at customer service (unmanned), so went to another counter adjacent. There was a thin woman employee there with a face like a slapped backside who totally ignored me standing right in front of her, then just walked off. Luckily the lady on Customer Returns was much more helpful.

Visit once a week, love IKEA breakfast,

Food is always lovely here. Portions are good and lots of choice. Price is amazing for what you can get. Really recommend the restaurant!

Good selection of food and drinks

Great restaurant, I went on a Friday and got all the food discounted! Their coffee is also great. Their meatballs were so good I had to buy some on the way out.

Nice and clean. Service OK staff talking whilst serving food. Food a bit cold . We had breakfast regular size worth it for what you got. Would have liked it hotter.

The breakfast is amazing and the price

The food was delicious, and the excellent service. There was a good choice of hot meals. And at such low prices. They have an offer on at the moment all meals half price on a Friday its unbelievable highly recommend a trip to ikea

Absolutely fantastic value for money. The small cooked breakfast is a great way to start the day and of course there is always the option of a shopping trip to get that little something you didn't even know you needed.

Great breakfast, cheap price, unlimited coffee, lovely staff always willing to help.

clean well organised i like offers

Simple, delicious and inexpensive. There are often new products, such as today's Indian Biryani. Don't think of it as a high-end restaurant, just think of it as a fast food restaurant. The coffee is delicious.

Great value food and they cater for dietary needs (i have egg and dairy intolerance). I had salmon and mixed veg which was very filling and tasted lovely, followed by the plant based caramelised biscuit cheesecake and a cup of coffee (espresso and oat milk topped up with boiled water, just how I like it. My husband and son had the meatballs followed by their dessert options.

12 meatballs with mash / chips, peas, gravy and lingonberry sauce for £5.95 (plant balls 5.50) is a great value meal and delicious. Daim cake for £2.25 is great value too. Free tea or filter coffee Monday-Friday for family card holders. Food was tasty and filling, whilst being good value. Can feel a little like a school dinner because of the way you get your food served. But go to a quieter part of the restaurant with a lovely spot-lit space, get rid of your tray and suddenly it feels a bit fancier. Its a bit of a walk to the restaurant and I always end up feeling a little disorientated in these stores, but just follow your nose or ask the staff for a shortcut to the restaurant. Recommend making time for a meal here if you're visiting anyway!

Slow as a snail to serve. Never enough staff. Coffee machines often broken.

Really good because you can find everything really bad because if you have any questions u should to walk around until you find someone to ask Food is not good at all

Had a Sad Chicken Katsu curry. How can you make it so bland. Even the rice wasn't nice.£16 for two with a mug of tea each. Whilst there was plenty of hot foods available, the rest of the chill cabinets were empty. Poor do for 1 o clock.

Probably the worst breakfast I've ever had, won't be returning.

The food was nice I must admit but portions were shocking baught chicken and chips for £9.75 and a slice of bread and a salmon wrap and came to £17.50 and I thought what the hell. Ive came here like every 6 months or 4 months what ever and it's been better but now it's shocking, dont recommended the restaurant. But I guess on the way out where hot dogs are that is a good deal but the other restaurant isn't anymore.😡

It’s a small restaurant just passed the children section! We tried their breakfast but was surprised they served it using disposable paper plates and cups, which is very wasteful…. (*Not sure 🤔 maybe dishwasher broke down or not enough staff?!) Cooked Breakfast is average but for the price of £3.75 cannot as for more! Very popular with families here and seats filled up quickly Nice and cozy decor, a lovely staff is always cleaning tables and checking on counters which is 👍🏻 It’s a good place for a quick meal when you here for 🏡 shopping 🛒 🛍

Me and my wife are regular visitors to IKEA but recently we have been disappointed by the reduced menu choice in the restaurant, is there a reason for this? We have always been impressed by the standards of cleanliness and friendliness of the staff and we appreciate that as pensioners the meals are of good value. We will continue to visit but would ask if the menu choice could be reviewed.

Calming and relaxing (weekday evening). Tasteful food, great prices and a tidy environment.

Decent restaurant, it’s spacious, and clean.

Amazing balls. Oh and it's not expensive so ignore any reviews from northerners, they don't know real world prices.

Well it’s not terrible! Little pricy and wouldn’t recommend the coffee. Arrived just as breakfast finishing so basically got all the leftovers! Takes American Express. Toilets have baby changing and their is a breast feeding area.

Decent breakfast could have been hotter. No eggs Supplier issue ? Pay extra for black pud and mushrooms....naughty that Takes a mile to reach the restaurant to be greeted with long queue and only one side of serving area open

we didn't have a hot meal we had a lovley strawberry and cream tartlet and coffee you can not complain about the prices they are very reasonable and the staff are very helpful

Average fish and chips but cant complain based on the price. The veg balls was decent too. Staff and organisation regarding covid was great. You are given a time slot at the entrance.

Always a bit of a maze they seem to have taken corona as a lead to make it more confusing than ever in an attempt to drive you to go around the shop multiple times.

Always enjoy visiting this restaurant, unless the queue is huge that is
