The Badger in Northumberland

Big thank you to Dan! Great service and food

Always have nice real ale on which is tasty. Staff are always great

Dan was amazing food was great and David our server there was nothing he couldn’t do

Dan and co were excellent - highly recommended

Superb friendly staff. Great food and good beers.

Lovely rustic and roomy venue Soft warm lighting Comfortable Large function room Nice outdoor area Lots of parking and wheelchair accessible Dog friendly Good menu with lots of choice and adequately priced Has a real farm/barn conversion feel and leaves you feeling snug

beautiful pub, wish it was my local. real cosy vibes.

3 out of 4 meals lovely, meat on the beef meal quite fatty

Never been here before and called in on the way back from a day out. Friendly staff and fast service, but the food wasn't great. We only had pizza, but one was underdone, some toppings were raw and the other was overdone, very burnt which affected the taste. Looks like the place could do with a good clean, toilet doors and handrails on stairs were filthy.

Not the first time we eat here. Great food, although a bit privy. Also this time I choose a skewer, the portion Lamb skewer left me a bit hungry. Bread and butter was offered at my companomion, but was charged. This was not communicated. Our server Anne was very friendly.

Lovely atmosphere and Anne is always pleasant when we come to the restaurant, we will certainly be coming back .

We were served very nicely by Anne. She was bright and cheery and efficient. Food and drinks were speedily produced. There is plenty of parking on site. Altogether a very pleasant place to stop for lunch.

We were served today by Alex who was very helpful. Great food, fast service and very friendly!

visited the badger today for lunch highly recommended good food good service. Worth a visit recommend going early around lunchtime as it's busy later on .

We had roast dinners and fish and chips. Both were absolutely delicious. Service was lovely and attentive. What made the meal possible was the fact that our little dog, Doris, could join us. They even had water bowls and treats for four legged visitors.

Our server Anne was extremely efficient, personable and a real asset to the Badger. Food was good but one meal needed to be much hotter....ie crushed potatoes served with the fishcake were only just to say warm and sauce was cold.

Lovely boozer and spot on food.

Took my Dad on a Monday lunchtime and, as ever, The Badger never lets you down. They located our table in a good place, after I’d indicated my Dad had limited mobility. We both had Beef Rib Bourguignon, which was excellent. Wonderful, attentive service from Anne. I’ve only given three stars for atmosphere as it was quiet - but not the fault of The Badger!

Didn’t get to try food, ordered then ended up with a good few dogs round me that people couldn’t control I wouldn’t mind but I’m allergic to them so wouldn’t be able to enjoy my meal was offered another table but I was already affected with the animals being placed near me. Update I was not informed it was a dog friendly table before being seated or i would have not accepted the table I would have gladly waited the extra time to be seated at a more suitable table if I was informed by your staff

We went for a family Sunday dinner. The welcome at the door set the friendly and relaxed tone for the experience. Service was excellent, just the right amount of being attentive without being pushy. The food was delicious and well presented. I would recommend their mini pudding and hot drink option - just the right size.

Served by Alex today was Chloe a few weeks ago Sunday lunch. Lovely food v professional service.

Beef and lamb Sunday lunch was amazing, roast veggies were delicious as was the gravy. We had the pavlova and crumble for dessert. Both were perfect. The staff were all very attentive and pleasant. We can’t wait to return very soon. X

Staff really friendly & lovely food

We came with 3 people and two dogs on Saturday 19th April at 15:30pm. We were lucky to be offered a table indoors but decided to meat outdoors at the back of the pub (beer garden) where it is dog friendly and offer a range of doggy treats, water, toys... etc..So well catered for. The staff were superb and couldn't be more helpful. The best we have had for sometime now so Credit to you all! Great decor and nice atmosphere. We had a Sunday roast which was amazing and twindifferent types of skewers which were delicious. Overall, had a great experience and felt very welcome. We will definatly be back! Thank you!

Brilliant service Marcus, super food too and very friendly staff.

Brilliant service Marcus, food excellent too.

Easter Sunday, it was heaving with people, we hadn't booked but they found a table for us . Service by Anne was perfect. The food was delicious.

Enjoyed a lovely lunch yesterday at The Badger. Anne was a fab server, the ambiance was warm and cosy on a chilly day and food delicious. Thanks for a lovely birthday meal, see you all again soon.

Food was amazing and our server Marcus was fantastic so accommodating made our meal even better! Would absolutely recommend!

We were served by Anne today and she was brilliant. Attentive, polite and helpful. Food was lovely and service was quick and with a smile 😃 lovely experience

Fantastic place, great service and food. Anne was very attentive to the needs of the youngsters and made sure the whole family was taken care of. Thanks again.

Great food, lovely atmosphere and good service. Thank you Marcus!!

As a group of mainly vegetarians really impressed with food choice, quality and taste. Service from Marcus and the whole team was great. Highly recommend.

Definitely will recommend it. I enjoyed my chicken skewer and the vegetarians though the food was good. Marcus was faultless in his service. A warm and friendly place.

Just had a lovely meal here before heading to the airport. It was fantastic - especially the burgers. The service was also excellent - especially Anne, who is the credit to the team.

Really nice visit, lots of menu choices, and excellent service we will be back.

Great food and the service from Anne was amazing

Very good experience. Dog friendly and very helpful staff. Anne looked after us very well

First time at the badger for Sunday dinner. The food was lovely and a good size portion. Our server Marcus was lovely he was attentive, polite and friendly. We would definitely return.

Had a fantastic meal, Anne and all the team are great!

Had a great time at the Badger with Simon looking after us. It’s rare to see a manager have so much floor presence these days. What a grafter!!

Been to the Badger af Newcastle Airport tonjght we both had fish n Chips very poor the fish batter was like concrete and burnt. Won't be ging back.

Another lovely meal. Great way to kick off 2025.

The Badger is a great place for a family get together. Have just had a great meal there. The staff are always very welcoming and attentive and the food was very tasty.

1st class service and food plus nice friendly staff. Always a joy. Anne, our waitress, was exceptional; very friendly and made us feel very welcome.

Paige was really friendly and helpful

Always a pleasure to go here. Service is always brill.

Fantastic food and service as ever. David is a great asset to the Badger. Thanks everyone.

Been back again and Staff are simply the best One thing that's needed to complete this venue is Jam Rolly Polly

Popped in with my husband one evening, the food was great and the staff was amazing. I had the steak and cheese pie and this was delicious. I followed on with the mini bakewell and cappuccino and this was delicious too Thank you all will be back.

Excellent service by Dan and food amazing, brilliant Sunday lunch and super puddings, thanks to all, a wonderful day

Marcus served us and food and service was great. Sunday dinner was lush

Excellent Sunday lunch and service from Marcus

Friendly staff, lovely food, nice cosy pub. I ordered soup of the day which was tomato and parsley, lovely and creamy really nice. Mains I got the chicken katsu curry. Really surprised how good this was for a pub style menu. Really tasty and the broccoli was superb. My girlfriend got the chicken parmigiana. Massive amount of chicken and really tasty. We got some halloumi fries for side and they were good to. x2 starters, x2 mains, x2 pepsis £64.50. Good food worth it, would go again.

I have been here before, and we came back because we really enjoyed our Sunday lunch. The food was lovely, and the service—provided by Anne—was lively and caring. I definitely recommend this place.

Popped in for a drink and seeing as lots of empty tables decided to have a quick bite to eat. We were quickly escorted away from our preffered area to a claustrophobic back room with a small window while the rest of the place was practically empty, reason being fully booked apparently. No indication on tables or what times tables were booked for. We weren't going to be long, drank up and left. Will be a while before we return I think.

Excellent food. Lovely setting, with option to sit inside or outside. Also dog friendly, which is an added bonus. Service was very efficient - Anne was so wonderfully friendly and attentive. Would highly recommend and we'll continue to return regularly.

Had a lovely Sunday lunch and was served by Anne who was a fabulous server.

Good service, friendly staff. Nice inside. Food was not good at all. 2 of us ordered fish and chips. Both came with a decent looking fish sat on about 8 chips for the whole plate. The fish looked good bit wasn't anything special. There was a small bowl of very dry mushy peas which must have been plated up hours ago. Also cam with tartar sauce but one plate was missing theirs. One of us god a pizza which was nice. One of us god fish finger sandwich, asked for the tartar on the side, but it came smothered on the sandwich. Also ordered a cheesecake but think they sent the wrong kind as the flavours weren't as described. Would not return here for food but would for drinks.

Overpriced for nothing special Just got a £60 parking fine 2 weeks later.... Didn't see any signage behind the bar or a mention by the bar staff or even a note on my table. All they had to do was to tell me to enter my reg number on a screen. Angry doesn't describe it.

The Badger is always my go to place when I want to just chill with the husband or with friends. Food is always spot on ive never had a disappointing meal there. Usually get looked after by David who if I could would give him 10 stars. He's professional and very welcoming and friendly without being intrusive. Was there with friends on 1st April we all enjoyed it very much

Thanks to Milly, who was friendly, helpful and efficient dealing with our choices

Fantastic pub/restaurant. Plenty of parking, nice and cosy inside and the staff were very friendly and welcoming. The mother's day menu was fantastic and the food was delicious. The service was really efficient - given that it was mother's day and therefore busy, it was impressive how quickly the courses were brought to the table.

Really nice meal, Alex the server was very attentive and professional

Could not fault service or food, excellent all round

We have visited The Badger on many occasions for family meals. Each time we've been welcomed in and enjoyed great food and been served promptly by their very friendly staff.

Excellent venue - slight mishap with the order but quickly resolved with drinks and extra's removed from the bill, it was very busy so mistakes do happen. Didn't even ask for the reduction so shows you how tuned they are for customer service. Sunday lunches extremely tasty and plentiful. Deserts first class. Certainly be going back again.

We love The Badger and as staying at the Airport we decided to go for Sunday Lunch. One of the best Sunday Lunches we’ve had. The Trio is to die for and a lovely Malbec to go with. Big shout out to Anne, our lovely server. So friendly and attentive with every table, not just ours. She’s a credit to The Badger. Thanks Anne.

Brilliant food and service from Anne was amazing

Decent food hampered by slow slow forgetful service. Won't be returning, which is a shame

Excellent service, friendly & helpful. We were served by Alex- thank you! Food was delicious, 4 stars because our first choice had run out …

Fabulous time had by all!! Food was amazing topped off by brilliant service David!!

David has been an amazing server, he was funny and attentive. A really credit to the team! Thank you David ;)

David is amazing! Very attentive

Food was amazing!! Staff were attentive and very helpful on their recommendation. Thank you so much to Simon, Dan, David, Lee and all the kitchen team that were working. I will definitely be back!

Starting to be our local drop in pub friendly staff and great service and food at a good price.

Very welcoming pub, with excellent service from Milly who was also very helpful providing a highchair for my granddaughter. . Food was very enjoyable, as was the beer!

Had big expectations due to my friends reviews but we all got disappointing. Sunday lunch was cold-ish. Small portion for the price you pay. Bad knifes that you struggle to cut the meat. Good atmosphere and service.

A lovely pub near Newcastle Airport and not too far from Newcastle city centre. Really nice decor and nice atmosphere. Staff are very friendly and helpful, we sat next to the real fire which is very homely. Food was nice, but not amazing. Overall, a very nice experience and I would go back.

Lovely meal. Fantastic service from Milly.

All the food was amazing and the service was excellent. Milly was a very good host and very polite

We, my Partner and I came for Sunday Lunch today, March 16th and were served by Millie. We would like to add that Millie served an excellent meal and provided us with all the accompaniments required: beer and soft mixed berries cordial. Everything was delicious and satisfying. One could add that we had a more than elegant sufficency. Many thanks to Millie and the rest of the very professional, experienced and efficient team for making our Sunday Lunch such a satisfying experience.

Food was really good here, £64 for 2 starters, mains and 3 sides for £10. Service was really quick and staff friendly. Only negative thing I could comment on was the stuffing as it was chestnut and bacon and there was no nut free option. Other than that amazing and will definitely come back.

My server was David. He was a lovely guy. The food was amazing and amazing place to go with freinds. Highly recommend

We had a great meal at The Badger a few weeks back. Great service - Paul was friendly, attentive and really helpful.

We had a lovely meal here. Staff were friendly and professional. Will come again.

Having not been in the Badger for years, the pub had been tastefully refurbished, the food was excellent and the service was good throughout!

Friendly pub, Alex was our server and very polite and pleasant! Food good price for 3 course! Happy days😊

Great food, lovely proseco 😁 and friendly staff. We will definitely be returning.

Our favourite place to visit for a casual weekend drink. Such a lovely atmosphere with even lovelier staff. Plenty of seats available. Dogs are always welcome and the staff love them. Great service and fabulous food.

Went for a last minute dinner with family, food fantastic but what really stood out was the service and all round great energy from David our server. We noticed quite a rowdy family near us with loud children but David made sure all the children had activities to keep them entertained and kept going back to make sure everything was ok. So if you have children I 100% recommend asking for David as your server. Thanks again

Food not great. We both got the sausage and mash. Sausages were over done and tough to eat my mam really struggled. One meal had plenty of gravy luckily mams mine had very little. Quite odd as served with onion rings which were really nice. Would have preferred veg with that type of meal.

Lovely atmosphere, staff went above and beyond to look after us, the fillet steak was perfect. Thank you Alex for serving us :)

Amazing service by Alex, good food & options

Quality place with Quality Staffng and hard tonfindnthis combination

first time at The Badger and very pleased! Great service from Alex who was our server and a lovely atmosphere. Would come back!! X

Beautiful place to eat, we were lucky to get a table by the open fire which really added to the ambience of the place. Anne our server was lovely, so friendly and chatty. We had the sea bass and the pie of the day, both dishes were beautiful. Definitely will return next time we’re staying at the airport hotel.

Anne our server was very amenable nothing was a bother so friendly.

Popped in for a quick bite with my partner on Friday evening. We both had the fish and chips which were excellent. Anne our server was fantastic.. welcoming, helpful, on the ball and a good laugh.

Lovely Sunday lunch. David was our server and he was great when we asked about gluten free options . Great atmosphere, food and staff. Thanks !
