Holiday not the same without a Sunday Lunch at the Apple. Good wholesome food perfectly prepared. Had the Braised Featherblade beef. Absolutely melted in the mouth Exceptionally good service attentive but not pushy.

We are staying in the village and it's only a short walk to this lovely pub. We received great service with a smile, and our food was superb. Highly recommend. Many thanks to the team.

We had our dog so he was able to also enjoy lunch as there was a sausage option for him. We have been in the past but forget just how lovely this place was. I had the fish pie (my favourite) and was not disappointed. My husband had the pie which was fresh and home made. The decor is clean and classy. The staff very friendly and accommodating. Highly recommend to try for the first time. But go back if it’s been a while since you were there as it is probably nicer than you remember. Will will definitely be going back.

I hoped to relive the comments shared by many (BUT NOT ALL) about how good this pub is. Sadly not! The pub was busy this Sunday lunch, we booked for 13.45 and arrived spot on. After a short wait we were shown to a table in the restaurant fight by the busy passageway, not ideal but OK. Table preparation was Ok however the floor around had not been cleaned from earlier diners. Then the wait - ordered mains only (roasts) at 14.55, food came at 15.35. plated veg, one half carrot, small amount of mash and gravy on the side. Separate veg arrived 5/10 minutes later and was cold, another 5 plus minutes for more to come, hot but a little undercooked. Asked for english mustard and horseradish, mustard and apple sauce arrived (FOR 2 BEEF DISHES!). We spoke to the Manager. She heard what I said but was not listening. A poor customer is always right attitude. Mostly excuses eg "all our food is freshly prepared" (perhaps not the case with roast dinners)! Shortage of staff, new staff and more customers than anticipated were other excuses. 10% taken of food bill (only) and left very disappointed - a poor experience. Judging by the number of positive responses on various review platforms, I will be generous and say we were just unlucky.

We went here as a group of 8 4 adults 2 kids including one SEN Ages 6-65 We are quite fussy and enjoy our food The restaurant itself is a 5 second walk from our stablewood cottage accommodation. It has nice toilets It’s very nice and comfortable inside , staff very friendly and welcoming! Kids are occupied with a kids drawing pack and kids menu Service was relatively prompt As you would expect, the wine list and the food is not exactly cheap. But in a classy gastro pub like this, good food and wine doesn’t come cheap. At £30+ a bottle. It was nice though! We mostly had Sunday roasts including one of the children. All the plates were completely emptied! The meat and sides was excellent, We can recommend the triple meat roast dinner was really good for those with a hearty appetite. My very fussy child was ok with his chicken tenders and fries - no processed nonsense here, it was lovely chicken breast strips. Dessert shout outs have to go to the absolutely huge portions on the fudge Sunday, and berry crumble. I would not recommend the sticky toffee pudding, it was small dry and just not nice, but they refunded it, so all good.

We visited here as a family on Two consecutive days after finding this place purely by passing through the village. The staff were extremely attentive, offering children colouring books to keep them occupied. The food was very good, some of the dishes a little pricey maybe but you left the restaurant satisfied and with a smile. The only disappointment was the sirloin steak which i had on both occasions. The flavour and char was fantastic, however, both steaks were tough, which was a shame. I did mention this whilst paying but all I got was an apology and the bill wasn't rectified. At £30, I'd expect a steak of very good quality and to be tender. We would visit again, I hope the steak is better next time!!

Wanted to try this place as it gets good reviews and this was just a lunch time stop in for a quick bite. Smoked salmon and cream cheese sandwich for me and a spicy chicken wrap for the other half. We liked that they were served with ‘healthy’ vegetable crisps and a good side salad and coleslaw. I find the eating area a little functional/canteen like in the day time. The restaurant that’s only open at night I think looked a little better. So we ate in the snug type bar on the right as you enter.

The Apple Inn is in Lucker, which has been bought up by holiday let and holiday bond companies, one of which owns the Apple Inn. This gives the whole village the feel of an up market holiday resort rather than a village inhabited by real people. The staff are very welcoming and attentive, the ambience is cross between a traditional pub / modern canteen and it wasn't overly busy like some of the pubs in Bamburgh. The food is tasty and reasonable value for the area. We had the veg lasagne and beef burger. Overall a nice evening out. 3 stars due to the holiday park feel.

Just two staff on duty last night 11th March, for this busy pub / restaurant. By far not enough. Long waits for drinks and food and anything else we wanted whilst dining. The two ladies on duty worked very hard indeed, but were not coping with the workload. We felt sorry for them. Tipped them accordingly. Asked to speak to the manager - not available and also the owner - not available. Shame. Spent £120. Somewhat disappointed. ☹️

Went for a light lunch. Decided to have the haddock fish chowder and the beetroot and goats cheese baguette. Disappointed as the chowder hardly had any fish in it but had lots of potato instead (not mentioned on the menu) brwad no buttar and the baguette itself was more like a subway like kind of roll. Person there seemed rushed off their feet and didn't seem to mind telling walk ins they were the only one serving and there woul be a long wait.for food. There were only 5 tables and two groups walked.away. Extreme prices for not much food. Wine and beer were good though.

Staying locally in Lucker booked for Sunday Lunch with high expectations after reading some of the favourable reviews. The visit transpired to be a disappointment. We chose the stiploin of beef followed by their Apple pie. Regrettably the experience was very average experience. Service was excellent and waitresses were personable but the quality of the experience would not justify a return visit. This represented very average value for money.

Positives: Lovely plush venue. Dog friendly, which we always struggle to find. Excellent reasonably priced local ales on tap. Decent portion sizes for starters, small plates and mains. (No desserts ordered). Ordered big apple beef burger which my family member said was very tasty. Negatives: Starters and small plates had no flavour whatso ever. We ordered the chicken wings and garlic mushrooms off the small plates and the soup of the day and duck boa buns off the specials. All very bland despite their description. And no one bothered to come over and ask if our meal was okay. Hence leaving a review on here, but would have preferred to give it in person. Unsure if we would go back.

We came for Sunday lunch at 3pm, it was busy and yet the staff still provided a first class service from start to finish. I had the strip-loin beef and my partner had the trio of meats, both meals were cooked to absolute perfection on nice hot plates. Finished it off with a sticky toffee pudding to share which was gorgeous! Couldn’t recommend this place enough, especially since we brought our 1 year old son who they loved interacting with too!

Staff were friendly and when over charged were very apologetic and it was rectified immediately, breakfast again was very nice and again the staff very friendly My only recommendation would be to get some comfortable seating for after dinner drinks maybe in the snug area.

I don’t think I’ve ever had a reception where a pub has looked so unhappy to see customers … We were asked if we had booked ( we hadn’t ) The place looked like it was at 25% capacity at best … they said they would squeeze us in but we were to wait before ordering food. So we waited 30 mins until after we had been seated and we still hadn’t been asked for our drinks order. After a gentle nudge we ordered some drinks, I was about to ask for food but the waitress pretty much ran off. Managed to order food… it arrived, approx an hour and a half after coming for dinner, which on the website reads 12-6pm for food?! The food was pretty decent. A family member did send a cold coffee back. Went to pay the bill. She handed me the card machine, no attempt to give me my bill to check over. Charged me double… literally. In fairness she apologised and refunded me what I was owed. I think the shock at us not booking and the delay on food really spoilt it for us. The error with the bill was just a simple mistake but given we had been made to feel like we were really putting them out by wanting to eat there , it was just the final straw. Two hungry kids after swimming and we were staying across the road. They’ll really struggle in the summer when it’s busy. We didn’t order dessert as I didn’t have it in me to wait another hour for that

Gluten Free family catered for well. Beef dinner was beautifully cooked, roasties were so crispy and tasty (not oily) and the vegetable were so well cooked, not stewed like most Sunday dinner veg.

Our friend has eaten here many times and this visit was her introducing the place to us. We ordered drinks, the waiter was excellent. Young man but great personality. Placed our order, no rush. Eventually 3 out of 5 meals arrived. The meals were cold. The final 2 arrived,10 minutes later, again, cold. Three beef, lamb & pork. Never asked if any sauces were wanted. When we asked for mint sauce, it was there instantly. We ordered more drinks. We finished our meals and debated about dessert. Still no drinks arrived. Eventually we were asked if they'd already served the drinks, we said no, but cancel them now. It was too late. We told the manager about our disappointment and we pointed out, the food we'd had was delicious but cold Felt for our friend with her reccomendation

We booked breakfast this morning having had a good fish and chip dinner there a couple of nights ago. I ordered kippers with runny poached eggs and sourdough toast, my wife ordered pancakes with bacon and maple syrup, and 2 cups of tea. The tea came out after a few minutes so we expected the food to follow shortly afterwards, especially as there were only 2 other table occupied, both of who had drinks on their table so we presumed that they had already ordered. Around 40 minutes later our food came out. Kipper was excellent but it was adorned with 2 hard boiled poached eggs (probably been cooking for the full 40 minutes), and 2 slices of toasted white bread - very clearly from a standard sliced loaf from the local supermarket. It was poor. Bill came to just under £30. The waitress never returned to the table to ask if all was OK, and seemed to want to argue when it was brought to attention when we paid. So it seems they do dinner well, but our experience would be to advise that breakfast is avoided.

I was hoping for a country pub with a roaring fire, but instead i felt like i was eating at an airport chain pub, so sterile and bright, i practically skipped out if the door when we were finally able to leave.

Our breakfast was included in the price for our 2 night stay and despite booking a time to eat we weren't expected on the 2nd morning! Our order took ages to arrive and was warm at best mainly due to 2 courses arriving together, if hot, where appropriate, and timely it would have been lovely. I really felt for the one waitress trying her best when 3 did the work the day before! More staff and organisation needed.

My wife and I stayed in a shepherd's hut, Badger Sett, a couple weeks ago. The hut was comfortable, if a bit cramped, but it was what I had expected. (They also have regular rooms.) Our "hut" was warm and quiet, overlooking a small stream There was a small wood-burning stove and good hot-water heater. The Inn appears to be the local hang-out for those in the small village of Lucker. We made some new friends while enjoying a couple pints upon arrival. And there were lots of friendly, well-behaved dogs! Dinner for us was local seafood and a reasonably-priced wine. Breakfast was across the road, serving a variety of tasty possibilities.

A wonderful warm welcome followed by an excellent lunch! What a find! Having had a good march around neighbouring Bamburgh Castle we pulled in for a spot of lunch. Great car park and a wonderful friendly service. Our dog was made to feel welcome too!...

I’d read great reviews and we were looking forward to eating here. I think I was anticipating a slightly cosier interior - it was modern but not new or particularly fresh. The chairs were very low and uncomfortable. The childrens main course portions are very...

If you’re expecting a cosy village pub forget it. Walked in for dinner at 6:30pm but was able to order a packet of crisps. Otherwise book ahead. Our pubs are really no longer public houses.

As one of a group of cyclists from Newcastle Great Park, it’s always a good stop off before the final stretch back home. Butties and a drink 👍, along with friendly service. Courtyard round the back is great when the weather allows.

Played today, Mon 26th August, Great layout, but sadly the greens are diseased and awful, and the tee boxes are terrible, very expensive bar, and no food being served, even though there was a competition on, and the bar was busy, Sadly one to miss in the future.
