Redfox Coffee House in South Tyneside

First time there....it was beautiful...with huge lovely choices....and a Lovely place to have great choice of food too and varied places to seat and eat....definitely try and go there again.

I used to use this little coffee shop frequently a few years ago and it was lovely and located within the Garden Centre so nice for a wander around and some nice purchases to be made. However…… I was really disappointed in my latest visit…… Cakes were small and not particularly great the Victoria sponge dry and tasteless, the fruit scone warmed up was lovely but came with a miniscule of butter and a small sachet of poor jelly type jam so what would have been a wow was quite laggy and let down with the butter and Jam (they sell lovely Jam in the gift shop a little spoon of that would have been amazing) I would have much rather paid extra for Jam and it been decent, it was such a shame to ruin the scone with rubbish jam. The price of the cake and scone was reasonable but that was obviously down to the size and dryness of the cake and the let down extras with the scone. Coffee was incredibly small and pricey but nice it was illy which is one of my favs. Tea decent and good price for size of the pot. Toast dry and cold again with miniscule butter which I asked for more of and got a eyeroll. Panini was fine albeit a little tasteless, the salad it came with had lovely peppers but leaves a bit saggy. Coleslaw nice. Service really poor and why they leave the tray on the floor stood up next the the table is bizarre and incredibly lazy. You have to get your own cutlery and sauces which is fine. Attitude of lady prepping meals was stroppy, but lady on the till was super lovely.

The best home cooked food around believe ne I have tried a lot of places pubs to this food at red fox knocks spots of the rest

Ah lovely chilled out cafe, great service, food and atmosphere.

Great food! Definitely recommend the chunky chips. Lovely outside sitting area, with plenty greenery. Really efficient and helpful staff. Disabled loo / baby changing near the tills at the entrance is immaculate too, well done!

Had Sunday lunch here a few times now and can't fault it, lovely food, will be back again soon

Garden centre is at the moment undergoing a renovation to the plant section, this is now mostly done. The food outlet is great . The food on offer is well presented and tasty, the staff are attentive. This is a very accessible place.

Lovely Coffee House with good food menu. Food always hot and delicious. Friendly staff and polite.

Good cafe within garden centre. Very popular so always busy.

Enjoyed a tasy slice of carrot cake and a nice cup of coffee. Great place to catch up with friends.

Fab food and amazing chunky chips

Good coffee and food, in a garden centre location. Prices are a bit high, but then the place is a bit out in the sticks. Customers are asked to return their cups and plates, using the tray provided. On the one hand it might appear good to be asked in advance to do this, on the other, it simply translates to the business outsourcing the table clearing to the customer, so you pay good money and also do the clearing up. Staff still have to clean the table to ready it for the next customer anyway, so why not clear the cups too, and offer better value for money? The staff are presumably paid for a shift, they should also consider doing the work instead of expecting customers to do it for them...

Excellent latte, price canny. Nice cafe/restaurant 😀.

No food, went for coffee with friends, lovely place

Gorgeous Sunday dinners, very good portions.

I love this place. The restaurant is a plus and the pies are really tasty. Higher recommended.

If you go on a Sunday you get stale scones from the day before, not impressed

A lovely place, sat outside. Enjoyed the food. The service was awful. Was reluctant to clean the table. And the one at the till was so unfriendly.

Best beef ever, relaxed atmosphere.

This is a great place to meet, either for a meal or cake and coffee. Very accommodating atmosphere and the staff are really friendly.

Great cafe, nice breakfast and coffee. Friendly and pleasant team of people.

Always enjoyed the food here, plenty of tables and the conservatory to sit in, staff friendly, always clean and tidy.

Nice place for a catch-up. Polite staff.
