TGI Fridays in Gateshead

Served by Celine she was clear concise and didn't waste any time getting me what I needed highly commend her

Ordered food on just eat and the food was incredible, you must have a great team of chefs and I am definitely going to order again soon! Thank you! :)

Great meal out for my brothers birthday today with a great armosphere, really fast service and never a time we had to ask for a refill on the drinks. Thank you Celine ☺️.

Kaitlyn was very helpful and very professional at her job everything we asked for was there straight away without any problems

Had a lovely time and had a really nice sever named Georgia who was super friendly

Really poor customer service from our server today advised we could have bottomless drinks for £3.95 and to just put our glasses at the end and they will be refilled after 15 minutes of waiting for them to be refilled and food been finished we where then approached and asked if we where finished and ready for the bill , when I advised they should not be charging for refill drinks if they are not refilling them no response ignored really poor service from Kaitlyn 10148 , will not be visiting again

Brilliant place, Food was delivered quickly and also delicious would definitely recommend!

Food was nice but once you were served the waitress seemed to disappear

Food was nice but bleep expensive. Will be the First and Last time visiting at those prices. Must say if we had seen the prices first we wouldn’t have gone but we were too busy chatting as was catching up with friends

Staff were very friendly, especially Matthew, who greeted me to my table and addressed my issue with the sesame allergy that I felt comfortable with. The food was excellent for vegetarians with great, fast service. Really enjoyed the experience. Even though it was expensive, it is well worth it.

Do not book here. Extras added on ???

I think TGI Fridays Metrocentre should be closed down for good because they have no soft food for me at all, when I order a garlic mash I expect that. Very disappointing restaurant who fail to serve garlic to me as a vegetarian

Katlyin was a great server today. Super friendly and helpful. Definetly would go again

I really enjoyed my time here.Kaitlyn served us and let me tell you, she was one of the best servers I ever had. She brought our food and talked to us. I felt like a customer when I was here. When I got my food, I really like it, since I was able to eat it. Overall this is a Restaurant. I think I liked it... 4 Stars

Kids eat free only through with their app. Bill already generated without us been properly informed. Great food but lack of information is disappointing.

Love this place for food, this time it was just drinkies. You can’t go wrong with TGI’s. Lush for a pit stop. Jack was amazing server.

Amazing food and our server Carl was lovely nothing was any bother will definitely be back

Brilliant server and brilliant service. Thanks Georgia at Metro center

Our server today was Georgia, she was lush! very efficient, approachable and couldn’t do enough to help… thanks Georgia 🥰 Food was Delissh would recommend the Glazed smash burger with salad 😋

As a TGI Fridays aficionado I was sadly disappointed with this visit to the Metro Centre restaurant. Upon entrance I waited 3 minutes to be greeted but then promptly sat down. Waited 10 minutes for my drinks order to be taken and it arrived 5 minutes after this time. I then placed my order and as I was sat near the kitchen I could see at least a dozen plates waiting to go and be served but to my surprised no one took them but plenty of staff stood around talking. I did overhear a manager saying lots of greens on the screen. I assume this meant over wait as lots of plates ready to go out. I seen what I believed was my starter and it sat on the hot plate for 13 minutes before being served to me. I would have sent it back if it wasn’t hot but it was so I couldn’t really complain. Mid service I had my server change but no name given for either server. However after the change the service or ordering and replenishing drinks were much better. I could later identify this server as Mahmoud. If it wasn’t for the new server I would have given the star ratings less.

My friend and I had the pleasure of eating at TGI’s today. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted by an extremely friendly team. We were served by Georgia and Joe, who were both very attentive, and their banter with each other and ourselves made the entire experience feel more relaxed and like we had known them for years! The food was brilliant! We shared the Cheese Donuts, which were sprinkled with sugar and barbecue seasoning, which was a unique taste at first but ended up being really nice. We routinely visit this place and always want to come back. I can’t recommend Fridays enough. Whether it’s a celebration meal or a gossip over cocktails, this is really a place made for everyone.

Was served by Kaitlyn. Great service. Very friendly and good food.

Having decided to try tgif after a long break, I found everything ok except the miss leading advertisement namely children eat free. A party of 4 adults and a 10 and 2 year old had a full service (bill came to £193.76). I made a fundamental mistake by not checking it and added 10% tip. On arriving home I checked the bill and found we were charged for the kids meals. As the phone service only refers you to the internet hence my review here. TGIF have again lost my future custom as they blatantly misadvertise.

Love getting click and collect from here. Food always good and staff are amazing and ensure we have everything we need. Thanks TGI’s metrocentre.

1st time at this TGI but definitely did not disappoint.

Really bad service ordered bottomless food. Servers never come back with new food had keep asking then taking 20 minutes to come. Staff not interested just standing at till talking. Never again. Food was wrong when came out. Staff should not be working public service. They shud be in youth club

Came for bottomless wings offer and served by Georgia, she was great from start to finish. Thanks for looking after us!

Want to thank our server Celine for our great experience! The food was lovely aswell !

Really great food and service. Georgia was fantastic!

The staff were all really friendly and the service was super speedy!!!!

Great service, value for money and speed. So much guac! yum!

Georgia was our waitress on Thursday 28 February lunchtime at 1pm. She was ever so helpful & friendly. She made our visit very pleasant. Food excellent. We will certainly return, thankyou!

Came here to celebrate a friends birthday. Food great, cocktails exquisite and fabulous service from the lovely Eden. Thank you so much, we’ll be back 👍

Me and partner went here for food and it was amazing. The food was 10/10 and Mahmoud served us first off he was so nice and welcoming made us feel so comfortable. Second of all he took our order without having to write it down and everything came out just like we asked it which is quite impressive. He was a lovely person and made our experience so much better.

My daughter has food allergies, serious peanut and tree nut allergies which has resulted in anaphylaxis and hospitalisation. I can quite honestly say this was the best experience we could have had. We were asked before we where seated if anyone had allergies, then a manager came to take my daughters order, he's was amazing going through everything with her. She does avoid sesame, however no serious reaction. He made sure that the kitchen were aware to prevent any cross contamination with sesame. He checked throughout out meal that she was OK. So may other restaurants leave it up to the customer to check ingredients. We always have antihistamines and epipen to the ready. Truthfully couldn't have felt safer, WELL DONE TGI FRIDAYS.

Absolutely lovely evening tonight and our server was Kaitlyn-Anne. She was an absolute diamond, nothing was too much trouble for her, from either getting me a glass of tap water to giving me some mayonnaise and she was up to date with knowledge of gluten and diary free so I was able to chose a decent dinner. Our food was yummy too. Was a pleasure to see her smiling and being helpful especially when her section was busy. Thanks a lot Kaitlyn-Anne, I will return! 😁

Expensive for what it is. Okay food

Absolutely shocking menu compared to what it was once upon a time and the prices are absolutely extortionate. £27 for burger and chips is what I expect to pay in London not Gateshead. Nice food, nice service but will not be entertaining this place again I’m afraid.

Lovely experience here with my partner good atmosphere and food was unreal. Kaitlyn was brilliant and very attentive to our needs.

tgi fridays is my favorite place to go for a meal, i love the food and this time the service truly made the visit. me and my friend came in and ordered the jack daniel’s chicken strips and they were amazing as per usual. we were served by a lovely lady called Mel, she was so kind and involved. i ordered a refillable drink and throughout the meal i was nearly finished my drink and she came with a full one just in time. the service truly made my day, she was so kind and just did everything she could to make sure our visit was perfect. thank you mel <3

Our server, Georgia, was fantastic! Even late in the day, she was incredibly friendly and energetic. She made us feel so welcome. When there was a slight issue with one of our orders, Georgia replaced it without hesitation and with a smile. That kind of service makes all the difference! Food was great, but Georgia's exceptional service made it a five-star experience.

Lovely food. Georgia served us and she was brilliant, super friendly and quick service. Lots of vegetarian options too!

Staff were lovely, food was nice however 2 for 1 cocktails….what a laugh!! No price on the menu but order my daughter the 2 for 1 as it was her 18th! was not expecting 1 cocktail to be £16!!!!! So your not actually getting 2 for 1! Absolutely ridiculous

The food was great. Service was excellent. Georgie was super friendly and helpful.

Gorgeous food and amazing service as always. Georgia has served us afew times and can honestly say we look forward to seeing her every time. She is kind, positive, enthusiastic and so funny. She is an absolute credit to TGI’s, can’t wait to see her again soon!

Excellent services from their server, Celine. Thank you.

Was luvleh, Kaitlyn was our server, was lush, foods always amazing, best environment

Kaitlyn and the cocktails man were both great to us. Helped with allergen guide and looked after us with great care

food and drinks were great, our server Georgia was absolutely amazing! So helpful and really great! x

Wonderful experience. Made by Daniel M. who was serving my wife and I 👍😉

We went here on boxing day and despite it being busy our server Georgia was amazing. She was incredibly helpful and really kind and welcoming. She made our experience much better and will definitely be back.

The ambience was lovely, and the staff was super friendly and attentive. We had nachos, potato skins with bacon, and Cajun-spiced chicken fajitas. The food was delicious, but quantity-wise, the nachos weren’t value for money, and overall, everything felt a bit pricey. The Passionate Sunrise mocktails were amazing and definitely a highlight. There was a bit of a wait during peak hours to get seated, as well as for the food to be served. Overall, it was a good experience.

Customer service was excellent, Kaitlyn was lovely and a very helpful. We love going to TGI’s Metro Centre for a family treat, our son loves the food here, the staff always make time to talk to him & he loves the activity packs. Food is always lovely too.

It's a bit pricey, but lovely food and staff are great.

Our server Paige was absolutely lovely, really fast service and food was amazing as per usual!

We visited today and were served by Paige who was so lovely, food was typical TGI but service first class. :)

Popped in for few cocktails and to use my strips. Jack the barman was fab even remembered that I drink 77 sunset strip tried the new bubble gum daiquiri on the rocks was absolutely lovely tasted like I was drinking candy defo better than the frozen one

Great experience at TGI Fridays tonight. 1st time for my wife and daughter and they thoroughly enjoyed it and the food. Kaitlyn was a lovely server too.

Great food and service by Emily M Thanks

Was very bad food. Was pork on which is didn’t told us also I did ask for full size Serling steak which came only small pieces charged for said salad but said come with it so we been charged £53 we had very bad experience and both of us fell sick after food

Food was lovely and waiter was very helpful and polite throughout.

Lovely food and service from Kaitlyn

Food is alright, but a bit pricey. They only told me the lunch menu is not available on Friday when I asked, which is not what it said on their website.

My friend and I came here about 2 weeks ago as it was his birthday. To be honest I wasn't too optimistic but thought I'd give it one last chance. The last 2 meals I had here were pretty awful and expensive too. Raw sweet potato in my pasta one time and just overall not great taste or value. Less than bog standard. That goes for the service too. Slow and rude. HOWEVER, this time I must say we were pleasantly surprised! Food and drinks came promptly and were cooked to perfection. Wait staff were lovely. Kind, accommodating and just overall pleasant, leading to a relaxed easy experience. Even got us our free refills so we could sit and have one more drink before we needed to leave. The place has had a hell of an over haul with staff and service and it shows as everything felt way better. Everything WAS better. Keep doing what you're doing!! Thank you for changing my opinion. Extra thanks to the waiter who served us. I'm so sorry I can't remember your name but this was on the 11th of november around 2pm. Such chivalry for a young man in his early 20s. Valued member of staff right there.

My daughter needs gluten free, and this place is amazing. They were really helpful and pleasant. Would definitely recommend

We had Georgia she was amazing and the happiest waitress ever !!!!!+ lovely food

Server, Georgia, was amazing! Super friendly and super helpful!!! Had a lovely time

Celine was very helpful. Food came out fat and so did drinks. Very enjoyable experience

Service was exceptional from Georgia who was efficient, warm and friendly. My tender rack of ribs was, as always, mouthwatering. The place seemed full of contented happy people enjoying their experience!

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

Excellent service from Eden our server. Pleasant and accommodating.

What a brilliant experience we had at TGIs Metrocentre tonight! Our server, Eden, was absolutely lovely and kept checking up on us throughout our meal. She was super friendly, polite and well-spoken!

Friendly staff on arrival we had a pre-booked table, food arrived in good time food was hot and delicious. Eden our server was lovely and friendly

Service was great, lovely atmosphere and great music. Food was really nice too! Our server was Georgia, she was really friendly and made the experience.

Can’t thank Joseph S enough for fabulous service, friendly, lovely manner and all round great guy. Refil drinks not a problem always smiling. cheers we’ve always enjoyed coming to TGI Fridays but will definitely be back next month for my sons birthday treat 🤗

Lovely staff and amazing food, overall absolutely unreal!!

Georgia was amazing. Food was amazing and very accommodating

Fantastic service by Eden today. She couldn't be more helpful and informative. We haven't been for a while, yet she was happy to explain everything and help with the menu.

Eden was lovely with us, see was great with our refilled and had good crack when talking to us. Thank you ✨

Emily was awesome. Kind, pleasant, attentive. We nipped in for some food while shopping. Riblets and wings hit the spot and price wasn’t bad at all.

Jack was cool and gave me a free drink for Bday. Would go again

Celine was lovely. Brilliant service

Food & drinks were excellent. Our server David was 10/10, has clearly been in the hospitality business for years - experience shows!! We had a group of 9, and everyone left satisfied.

Just felt I had to write a review went here last night for my grandson 14th birthday there was 11 of us , the food is absolutely shocking deep fried greasy chicken with sesame seeds it's vile to cut the story short as a really have no words it was £100 for me and my partner fir greasy chicken and wings and fries ! The only good comment a can say is the staff where lovely but that's it , no wonder they are closing branches elsewhere , would never in a million years return .

It says half price rack Tuesday you get £3 off making it £20.50p rip off tastes nice but when you get the bill it makes you feel like unhappy!

Katlyn-Anne has fabulous customer service! We will be back because of her

Visited TGI Friday at Metrocentre today and the food was excellent as always. Fast service and Kerry made sure our drinks were topped up and made our visit a great experience Thank you

Been here a few times with my daughter on our little dad and daughter days out, we had Kaitlyn serving us today and she was very friendly towards myself and my daughter even making her a little balloon dog to keep. Always enjoy my little trips here cause the food is nice and priced well, but today the already excellent service was better

Food was good as always. Customer service from our server was awful, his attitude was absolutely stinking, I understand people have bad days but to be downright rude to customers for no reason is out of order, didnt even ask for the bill and got it shoved down in front of me as if to say “well go away then”, we’d literally only just finished eating!! That was only one of the many things I picked up on from him. Toilets were also absolutely stinking, pure filthy!!

Bland, tacky decor and design of the restaurant. The food is the most basic bulk bought ingredients, blandly cooked with no seasoning or effort. Prices are too high for the frozen food they serve. Staff were friendly but being served by four different waiters over the course of a meal is confusing and unhelpful for customers and that alike. Would not eat again

Just Brilliant. Entire group of staff were accommodating, checked in on us regularly. The food was perfect. Overall kind and professional team, definitely recommend.

We popped in to the metro centre restaurant for food We were quickly greeted and seen to our table. At this point martyn came over and asked us what drinks we would like and how our day had been he interacted with the kids asking them what drinks they would like and if they had enjoyed there day. Martyn was very polite though out our meal he has a great knowledge of the company as we asked him lots of questions about why there is a motorbike in the restaurant about the rowing boat on the ceiling the propeller above the bar and the peacock glass. He answered all our questions we had a really nice evening and the food was fantastic

Went with my wife and two young daughters whilst visiting Newcastle - been a while since I’ve visited a TGIs - in summary the visit was underwhelming. Table we sat at was sticky with dirty cutlery and food debris still stuck to table . The food was expensive for what it was and pretty basic. The only really redeeming thing that made me give this 3 stars was the excellent service we received from our waitress who was brilliant! She helped us with the discount code and was professional and patient with my girls and attentive throughout our meal and did a great job! Give this girl a rise! Unfortunately won’t be going back as value for money is poor :(

Server was good however the price of food compared to the quality lacking. Grossly over priced for terrible food. The pub next door is far better

Our Rachael is a reyt lass - proper service! Jolene was Alreyt anorl

Thanks to Rachael! Food was good and atmosphere was spot on, had the place booked to ourselves

Fab service from Rachael - here’s a picture of George

I was disappointed in TGI Metrocentre not having Garlic mash for me at all. I wish they would have Garlic mash for me instead of saying that there is no Garlic mash for me

I have already written a review on trip advisor however I just wanted to say that the food was okay. However, I was not going to write a review but thought it may be worth a mention. I came in on Friday around 4-5 pm for tea. I noticed that one of the waiters would not leave his girlfriend alone who was working on the bar area (or who seemed like his girlfriend). It made me feel terribly uncomfortable and I could actually see that his girlfriend was getting agitated and upset by him. I just think that there is a time and a place to be arguing with your girlfriend. Hopefully the management will pick up on this and bring this up as it made my experience kind of unpleasant. I would also like to say that the service from the waitress who was serving me was decent and fast.
