The Biddick in Sunderland

We went for the steak night and can't fault it. The food was delicious. Excellent value for money. Highly recommend.

WoW WoW we’ve just been for Sunday Lunch and it was Fantastic! You have brilliant staff and the food is delicious, we love having a meal at the Biddick Restaurant. We had family up from Birkenhead and 9 of us went to have a meal and everyone really enjoyed their meals.

Best Sunday Roast ever totally delicious

Good food (and plenty of it) friendly staff that don't rush you to finish.

Every one very friendly food excellent

Sunday Lunch, really nice, such friendly staff

Booking on line is so easy. Great service and food. Will be back soon.

Lovely food and such helpful staff. Very reasonable priced too.

Called in for Sunday lunch. Absolutely fantastic. Very large portions. Staff all lovely. Will definitely be back.

Had a lovely lunch in the restaurant. The staff were very friendly and professional, excellent service, especially the young man behind the bar. Will definitely be back again, and would highly recommend this place to anyone. Thank you for a wonderful dining experience.

Beautiful food and lovely staff

Lovely attentive staff great food

Service excellent, menu choice is very good. All the food was delicious except for the battered fish. Not fresh and a bit overcooked, not as good as the other dishes

What an excellent Sunday Lunch. Hot plates (always a great sign) carrying hot beautiful food. Every mouthful was indeed a delight. Sorry no photo ( mobile inaccessible) but we'll definitely be there next week - so I'll update with photos. A great addition of extra fresh vegetables. Honestly it was delicious. Although 'extremely' busy - our hot food was served quickly by really pleasant, friendly and very lovely staff. Looking forward to our next visit. Deserts delicious too.

Very nice food and friendly service.

A great meal with excellent service by the attentive staff. A really lovely place. A bit squashed where we 6 were seated but a lovely meal.

It was our first time here last night. Beautiful food, lovely atmosphere and very friendly staff. Will definitely be returning again soon :)

Love this place, always incredible food, all staff are lovely never had a bad meal here only thing that let it down tonight was everyone got there main meals and we had to wait for one main meal which came out later than others as the chef burnt the first pizza so everyone was trying to eat slow so we could eat together as last time my parents went the same issue happened where everyone had finished there meal and then the last dish came they were waiting for came out but other than that everything is always spot on and so busy for a week day

Perfection. Great food, great service. I had the lobster ravioli - recommended by the manager. Very tasty. First visit but certainly won’t be our last. Highly recommended.

Lovely greeting, drinks ordered quickly & received very promptly. Enough time yo look at menus without being rushed. Starters were beautiful fresh ingredients. Main courses were gorgeous so tasty. It's only our second visit but we will be bk .

Birthday lunch with the girls, as usual great service and fantastic food

I really enjoyed the biddick inn ,food was very tasty and the atmosphere and staff were great. Thanks biddick.

Good Sunday lunch with large portions. Pleasant family meal enjoyed in there.

The food here is amazing and great vaule for your money. Will definitely be back

Amazing visit, great food and great service as always.

We've eaten here often and always receive friendly and attentive service. Only small criticism is that the male and female toilets are not quite up to scratch. For example, one of the seats in the ladies was hanging of the loo and the toilet rolls were sitting on the disposal bins rather in the holders. A little more attention to the cleaning would also be appreciated.

Nice little gem. Will be going again.

My friend and I had the steak deal, we were surprised to see it was £40 as we were expecting it to be £35 which is what it was in the website when I booked the day before ! However food was nice, steak wasn't the best I've ever had , as I feel it could have been better seasoned by the chef but nevertheless it was fine . Husband has the Diavola pizza which looked and tasted nice but could have had a bit more spice to it more nduja and less chicken . Included Rosé wine was a white Zinfandel and was good.. Serving staff were excellent, very friendly and efficient and the place was busy , music was a bit loud but I think we were sitting under speakers . I would recommend a visit to The Biddick Inn the general menu is very comprehensive with lots of choice but wished they still did the hanging kebabs or maybe I missed them on the menu ? Oh , I forgot we all had the caramel apple pie and it was delicious 🤤

One of THE BEST Italian/greek restaurants we have ever dined in

Excellent food and knowledgeable staff

Visited today (23.2.25) for Sunday lunch. Food was excellent and brilliant value for money. Couldn't believe how much you got including all the vegetables. Honestly can't speak highly enough of it. Staff were so friendly and very attentive. Nothing was too much trouble. Will definitely return very soon.

Lovely meal. Only negative is charging extra for more gravy which I think should be included and other locations in the area don’t do in my experience.

Really lovely evening. Food was amazing, and only surpassed by the service. Well done, and thank you.

Fantastic all round. Fab Sunday lunch

My new favourite restaurant. Thankyou x

All 3 meals were delicious. My trio of fish was cooked to perfection. Lovely friendly staff.

Forth time here and can't find any faults. We had the Sunday lunch. The food was served quickly, it was delicious and there was plenty of it. The staff were polite and friendly, and the restaurant was bright and welcoming. Don't think I'd go anywhere else xxx

Lovely meal valentines night, the red heart balloon n red rose was a lovely touch n nice surprise Well done, good as always very good

Excellent food once again, our favourite place for food and drinks.

Pleasant surroundings friendly staff

Pleasant staff and atmosphere was nice. 3 of 4 of us had upset stomachs afterwards (all different types of foods), but not severe.

Food really good, nice atmosphere but service a little slow. It was quite busy, so put the service down to that .

Lovely food, staff very attentive and polite. Price ok as happy hour. Drinks very expensive.

Lovely food as always, attentive staff great evening.

Great choice of food, very reasonable, large portions, friendly staff, great atmosphere.

The food was fabulous.The staff were all excellent,friendly,attentive.The setting was great.I’ve been twice in 4 weeks and will definitely be back!!

Beautiful food and friendly service. Would strongly recommend 😊

Absolutely amazing food was lovely service was good a little slow but girls were busy

Lovely atmosphere and very attentive staff my sons autistic and they made such a fuss of him we’ll definitely be back.

Had a fabulous evening celebrating a big family birthday. Staff were exceptional in looking after us, and given the size of our party (15) everyone was looked after and prompt with food and drink. Food was excellent, as always. We could not have had a better evening, our thanks to all the staff @ The Biddick

Great staff and a lovely atmosphere. Food was lovely and we had a great time.

We booked a buffet for 20 people in remembrance of and to celebrate the long life of my mother. We had a private space just off the main dining room, the buffet was superb in every respect: variety, presentation and of course taste! The service was excellent and everyone in our group without exception expressed how lovely it was. I wouldn’t hesitate to book again and I highly recommend the bistro! Definitely 5 stars!

Sorry to be saying this but the pub was over booked and should have refused our booking. We were in the bar area which was fine, but cold and no atmosphere, forgotten about too ☹️ had to chase for drinks order and waited over 1 hour for Sunday lunch, after chasing our order was put through again ☹️ then added to an extra pint of beer ☹️, genuine mistake but always check your bill

Back again - we can’t stay away from this place. Excellent food, friendly staff and smart surroundings.

First time ordering a Sunday lunch for delivery and can honestly say it was the best Sunday dinner we have ever had,absolutely lush,will definitely be ordering again in the future. Everything was cooked to perfection and tasted perfect. Thank you.x

Great food lovely atmosphere will use again

There was 4 of us and all ordered different things and everyone said it was lovely the service was amazing,we had a table at the window looking out at the river it was so cosy definitely recommend here and will definitely be going back ,

Went for a family meal tonight before my son moves to New Zealand next week. We were greeted by the owner who was very friendly & made us all feel very welcome. They have a menu with plenty of options for al tastes & the food was beautiful. The staff are excellent too. Very friendly & nothing as too much trouble. The owner came over before we left, had a chat & wished my son luck for the future & we came away happy & well fed. Will definitely be back

Really enjoyed the steak night, excellent value for money. Service was really friendly

Very friendly, good food and good service

We've used this pub on and off for years, so we are familiar with the place. In the last few years, it has adopted a Bistro style that works well. Drinks in the garden are enjoyable, as is the occasional meal. Last year (2023), we enjoyed our first Xmas lunch at the Biddick, which was enjoyed by our family group, so we returned for 2024. It was even better, especially the food. There was a full selection chosen with no disappointment evident. When coupled with great service, it made our festive day complete. Excellent occasion from a team that tries so hard to please, and they succeeded. An easy five stars.

Great value for money for steak night! 2 steaks and 2 desserts plus a bottle of wine for £35.

Fantastic food , great staff , fun time

Staff very friendly and helpful. Food was delicious. Nice portion size. Reasonably priced.

Wow! Our first time visiting. Absolutely loved it. Staff so polite and attentive. Food amazing. Family of adults. Starters - potato skins which were perfect. Garlic mushrooms a big hit and mozzarella sticks a winner. Mains - fish and chips - huge, tasty and not one bone. Fresh homemade chips. 2 x Pollo crema- what can I say but definitely a winner, the tastiest sauce I’ve tried and chips to die for. Linguine fruti de mere - well the plate was cleared, beautiful and plenty of prawns and mussels. No room for pudding so coffees were a lovely end. Thank you for a lovely evening.

Great food, not small portions! Great service, reasonable prices. Friendly attentive staff. Only issue is that some of the tables for two are too close together, we had to ask to be relocated to a bigger table elsewhere in the bistro. Otherwise it would have been 5 stars.

Just enjoyed a fabulous Christmas Lunch with my Family food first class and piping hot with attentive excellent Service from the Staff and management Much Appreciated 👍

Absolutely fabulous night , all food was delicious , service was friendly and the cost was really good value .

Food was delicious , 6 meals across the board absolutely faultless , service was a little slow considering nobody else in , had to go find the staff for more ordering etc . Lovely decor inside that been said , would definitely recommend

Good menu, great value and enjoyed the food

Fantastic food and service as always!

Lovely place to eat, never been disappointed, and the staff are lovely! Highly recommend the chorizo skewers to start!

Small but very lovely. The staff were polite, attentive and super helpful. The food was lovely, made with care but the 2 baked pasta dishes were just a little bit dry. Would defo visit again. Thanks team :)

Absolutely lovely evening out, the food was excellent, an extensive menu that will need to be revisited often. The staff were all lovely, very attentive and nothing was too much trouble. They kept us informed while we were waiting for our table. All in all, a restaurant I’m looking forward to visiting again in the future.

Absolutely fabulous food and the service was excellent, will definitely be going back.

Fabulous food, lovely atmosphere, service could have been a little better

Food very good. Service even better!! Never had a bad meal here.

This is our first time and can't wait to go back. Best ever Calzone.

Christmas lunch was fantastic, every course was delicious. Staff were very helpful and attentive, couldn't have done anything more. If we had any 'complaints'...there was too much too eat...it was sooooo good didn't want to leave any

Lovely meal and good service. Thank you

Just had Sunday lunch for 4 people and all of it was beautiful!

Wonderful food and great service

Fantastic food, great service as always ! Thank you for a lovely evening ! See you soon

Visited for steak night and was not disappointed. Food amazing. Service brilliant. We will be back.

Lovely clean, nice place. Live music on certain nights. Good food.

First visit here, the restaurant itself is lovely - really cosy and tastefully decorated. The food was great, portions generous and all the staff were incredibly friendly but never overbearing. Will be recommending to friends and family. Looking forward to our next visit.

First meal here, will definitely return, garlic bread to start,I had pollo creme with veg, was very tasty, hubby had sizzling plate, he said it was nice. Slight wait for more drinks but staff were very attentive.

Thursday night date night. 2 x Steak and 2 x dessert and a bottle of wine. Food was outstanding and the service 1st class. Will definitely be back .

I love this place always service with a smile and excellent food well worth the 5*

The only place i’ll go for a sunday dinner!! prawn cocktail starter is my absolute fave and the dinners are always 10/10🤩

Very nice place. Staff are very friendly we were made very welcome . Only issue was the beef in the stroganoff was tough, otherwise food was tasty.

Consistently great food, service and value for money.

Meal was very nice, but did fine the house wine was too expensive.

Perfect ! Amazing food great service , highly recommend 👌

What a meal! I devoured the fish pie which was amazing. Me and my Dad really enjoyed our first visit and will definitely be back. It was filling and tasty. The service was so polite and helpful - thank you ladies. Another visit today (10/11) and the Sunday roast is fantastic! Highly recommended 👌

Just eaten here for the first time, stumbled across the place as our son was playing golf locally. The food was outstanding and the service 5 star. 3 courses each with a glass of vino and coffee ⭐️ My hubby even got to practice a little of his Italian with the owner. Worth the drive from Hartlepool x highly recommend 🇮🇹 Italian food done right 👏🏼

1st time visiting today absolutely beautiful food,and excellent service,very helpful and friendly staff

Spent my full meal listening to staff blab about their problems at home, they refused my simple request and were just generally ignorant, think I’ll stick to the Italians down the road

Food was delicious, staff were excellent. Only gripe was getting asked if we wanted water for the table and getting charged £3.50 for a 500 mil bottle when we were expecting tap water.

Very satisfied with service and food.
