We visited this restaurant on the recommendation of my daughter and son in law and what an absolute hidden gem . We will definitely return the food is incredible and the service well what can I say apart from above and beyond. The lay out and decor is beautiful and traditional Italian music playing too which we loved we will definitely return 1000% grazie for such a wonderful evening until next time .

Food wasn’t great and male waiter was quite rude. We ordered starters and fillet steaks. My husband’s steak came out over cooked so we sent it back to be told that the chef was ‘overwhelmed’ as they had a couple of tables which had just walked in and not booked. I’d hate to see the quality of food if they were actually busy. When my husband’s steak came out after another long wait, he sent it back as I’d eaten my food so we asked for the bill, paid and left. Such a shame as we had booked for our anniversary meal and thought we would try for a change. Unfortunately we won’t be going back. However we’ve given it a 2 star as the wine was nice and the two waitresses were also lovely.

Found this restaurant on Tripadvisor as we are staying at Lumley Castle. It certainly lived up to the excellent reviews . A nice welcome and the place was vibrant and warm Starters were excellent and the main course didn’t disappoint either. The staff were excellent and very attentive. Don’t hesitate to book this place if you’re looking for a good Italian restaurant while in the area.

Found this place while stopping in the Travelodge Northbound services, after finding it on Google the hotel receptionist also reccomend it (which is always a good sign) we were about to drive the 10 minutes it said on Google maps but there are gaps in the services fence meaning it's a 2 to 3 minute walk tops (we were also informed this by the receptionist) absolutely stunning food and plenty of it, the staff who are a family run restaurant were first class, without doubt you should give it a try if you're in the area, we certainly will be back when visiting the North East. Thanks for a great evening

As always, a fabulous meal at Antico! With excellent service, in a lovely ambience, and delicious authentic Italian food. What is there to complain about? Well… The price! We understand that prices have risen dramatically everywhere, but the ‘happy hour’ just ain’t so happy! Not only is the food expensive, but the drink prices are ridiculous. We shouldn’t be paying £7.50 for a glass of house wine! Lower the prices - or have some special offers - and we will return.

We have been regulars at this restaurant for many years as we live locally. Sadly, after a recent visit, we feel it that improvements are needed. Here are the reasons why we did not enjoy our visit: 1. Limited parking – we had to park on the busy road as the small carpark was full. 2. No background music – so we had to listen to everyone else’s conversations and the ambience was not as authentically Italian as usual. 3. The choice of earlybird meals are very limited and no longer a cheap night out! 4. The potato skin starter is far too big for one person and expensive – this could be half the size and half the price? Next time I would share! 5. The pizzas are tasty, but the base is impossible to cut! It comes whole, which looks lovely, but is chewy and tough - hard work to eat. We asked for steak knives to cut it, but even that did not really help. 6. Prices of drinks and desserts are ridiculous! I know it’s the same everywhere now, but there is nothing happy about this happy hour. 7. The service was swift, if a little too fast! Starters arrived quickly, and the mains arrived straight afterwards. We were there to enjoy a family meal, but in and out in a flash, so it did not feel like a special occasion.

Used to love this place but went for Sunday lunch and it’s gone down hill, bland food with only 2 types of veg, boiled carrot and broccoli. Don’t think the chef has heard of salt and pepper nevermind seasoning. Staff friendly and helpful as always. They also pass around a gravy dish with condiments in so it’s a shared dish between everyone yuck! Also ran out of desert before any had been served?

We’ve always had good food in the Restaurant and so given the current situation opted to try the Takeaway option and wow did we regret it. Food was delayed after agreeing a pick-up time and had to wait around a very crowded bar area. And then the order provided was completely wrong, only half of the items ordered were given even though we asked if it was complete. Staff were so rushed to get us out that they kept saying it’s all on the bag/boxes when clearly it would not have been (it was a large order). We had to return to pick up the remaining parts of the order which then needed to be cooked.. So cold food all round and a waste of so much effort.

As we are local we use Tavistock Italia very often, the food is good and the staff are very friendly and provide excellent service. We were gutted that like everyone else they had to close cos of the pandemic.Thankfully they have started back up and now provide a takeaway service. As always the same level of friendly service is provided and the quality of their food is just as good.Just yesterday i ordered 2 sunday lunches, both roast beef with plenty of well cooked fresh veg and gravy. The bill came to £17 odd and to be honest i couldn’t buy the ingredients and cook them for that price so i’ll definitely be back next sunday. I ordered for 1:00 and it was ready for collection on time, i was greeted with the same friendly smile and courteous service as usual, the food was great and portion sizes very generous.Overall, i just can’t fault the place, hence the 5* rating. Anyone leaving a poor rating are just way too fussy in my opinion. I’m fussy when it comes to my food, but Tavistock tick all the boxes for me.Please keep up the good work and keep safe. Can’t wait till you open up the restaurant.

A friend was working in the Washington area for a few days and asked if we could meet up for a meal. We live about 20 minutes away so are unfamiliar with this area. We googled and found the Board Inn not really knowing what to expect. The rather shabby exterior and bar area almost had us turning around and leaving, we are so pleased we didn't. This was truly the best Italian meal any of us had ever had. The menu had items on that we had not seen on an Italian menu before and there was a good choice of wine and beer. It was a Tuesday night and not busy so we were able to take our time and eat our way through garlic bread, starters, main course and dessert while we caught up with our friend. The service was great and the bill when it came was very reasonable, we will be back.

In the most unlikely setting but very handy if you're staying at the Travelodge (200m away) this place is surprisingly good. Family run by actual Italians it has a lively and friendly atmosphere. Service is prompt and efficient and the food is delicious and piping hot. Good choice of dishes on the early bird menu (before 6.45) or you can go a la carte. I had very nice garlic mushrooms followed by a lovely pizza washed down with a Peroni and followed by an espresso all for under £16. Go. You will not be disappointed.

I wrote a review of the Board Inn six years ago following several visits. I never found the experience to be, at best, anything more than average, and on a couple of occasions to be poor. However, a group of us had lunch there this week and it proved to be an entirely different experience. The manager, who has a lovely sense of humour, (unlike his predecessor) made us feel very welcome, the service was sharp and the food, which was thoroughly enjoyed by everyone and very reasonably priced, was, by far, the best I have had there, and better than in many of the other establishments in the area. I wiil have no hesitation whatsoever in returning here in future.

We have eaten at this restaurant on two occasions recently, and on both occasions the food has been excellent. Each time we have arrived about 5.30pm and although not particularly busy when we arrived, the restaurant soon filed up. On our second visit we decided that the earlybird meal was inviting, so my wife went for pate' as a starter and I chose potato skins. My wife then chose stroganoff and I went for the sirloin steak with a peppercorn sauce. We both agreed that both courses were delicious, and with 2 glasses of Rose' the bill came to £41.80.which we thought was very good value.

As a party of four we had an evening meal here while staying at a nearby Premier Inn. There was a small amount of parking. The building looks like a not too flash pub from the outside and you walk through the bar to reach the restaurant. However the staff were very friendly and almost all appeared to be Italian. The food was excellent including pizza and pasta which appeared to have been freshly made. Service was pretty prompt. We had a bottle of wine. All was good value for money. This restaurant should definitely be recommended.

Great service and value for money. The roast beef fell apart, mash potato had a Delicious twist too! We over heard a lady on the way out say "its very rare to find a roast I actually like!" We will most certainly be back.

Beautiful meal to celebrate our wedding anniversary. Great service. Quality, hot, fresh food. Enjoyed 2 courses plus drinks for less than £40 during Happy Hour! Recommend King prawns as a main.

I attended with a group of 6 on Sunday 16th, the service was as excellent as the food. Steak was cooked perfectly to preference with portions being plentiful. Would recommend to anyone looking for a reasonably priced meal.

Having decided to take mam out for lunch,I thought the Tavistock was a good choice. We've had a few meals here in the past and all were enjoyable.

We stayed at the premier inn and didn't fancy carvery every night so searched online and found this gem. We were made welcome and enjoyed good food and wine and the service was friendly. Worth going early (up to 6.45) for happy hour as many meals were cheaper and still good portions. We enjoyed it so much we went back the next evening - well worth a visit. Save room for desert - the tiramisu was delicious.

We decided to visit The Tavistock to try their Sunday Lunch. When we arrived it was very quiet, only about 3 others tables in use. Staff were very friendly. We both ordered Sunday roast - there is a limited meat selection. When food arrived there was not much selection of veg, other than potato there was only broccoli and carrots. I love yorkshire pudding, but even I couldn't eat it, it was rock hard - inedible. I did hear the lady on the next table complain about them being too hard but the waiter just shrugged. We were both very disappointed as we have visited in the past and thoroughly enjoyed the Italian menu.

The food is fine and the price is reasonable, unfortunately, the staffs are quite rude and impolite.

Stayed at Travelodge on Motorway near Beamish Museum. Walked up small road behind hotel and through path in hedge, found this amazing place! The staff were so welcoming and friendly. The atmosphere was very comfortable & relaxing. Lovely menu. I had Salmon with Saffron Sauce. Delicious. Absolutely certain we would go back again if in the area.

Worst diner ever. Surprised it’s open given the service we experienced at the time was anything to go by. So unlike the theme of which we received in USA that’s it’s hard to believe it is the same chain. Staff serving us lacked the appetite for helpfulness.

Service and atmosphere is nice but the average food is not worth the steep prices in my opinion.

Buena comida, Robyn era una estrella! Se aseguró de que nuestra hija sin gluten fuera atendida. Perfecto para un día de compras y recarga.

Nice food but service was not the best, not given enough knives and forks for the table, we were given a pizza box to box away our own leftovers which I thought was a bit weird

I had the chicken salad and found that unusually for a restaurant my meal actually looked like it was advertised and it was amazingly good, I will visit again. A really good example of how good simple can be. Thankyou
