The Hideout Coffee House in Sunderland

Been today, food very nice, staff were nice, price's good, coffee nice but my Latte wasn't hot, maybe i should have taken it back, will definitely return

Great place for a drink and cakes are lovely too. Food looks lovely. Friendly staff, would visit again.

Nice little cafe to stop when on a stroll along the coast

Great coffee, great spot overlooking the sea and fabulous lemon and blueberry scone! One of the best I have ever had. Thank you!

Cute little coffee place, with toilet

Really great coffee and cakes, unfortunately they're closed more than they're open. Have turned up there many times to find them closed, wont even bother trying in future and will go somewhere else.

Our cakes were homemade and nice enough. Coffee was made with water that was too hot which affected the taste. Nice outside seating. Bins overflowing. Not quite as we'd hoped from the reviews.

Visited whilst on a short break from Scotland Food was nice, and the service was really friendly and welcoming. Prices were really reasonable too. We had lovely weather and able to sit outside and enjoy the view. Easily 5*

A lovely little café. Excellent coffee and snacks. Only negative is that you have to pay with cash. I would use it a lot more if they accepted contactless payments.

Fine coofee house right on a promenade above the Sunderland beach. Good coffee, homemade desserts, nice owners. Everything is as it should be :-)

First class cappuccino and piping hot...brown sugar & they never forget a good sprinkling of chocolate. perfect👌

Perfect spot for a piping hot cup of tea and a scone

came down for a coffee while out with the dog on a walk there was water outside for the dogs to drink which was handy you could either sit inside or outside seating too.. we got a coffee and a hot chocolate and two cakes absolutely lovely very reasonably priced compared to some places very relaxing and friendly environment will deffonately be back again

Great family ran business, staff so friendly & welcoming. Travel out my way to go here here as atmosphere is top notch. Food & cakes are lovely. Overall brilliant visit

Everything spot on, food lovely, coffee and cake’s amazing. Staff were very friendly and helpful 😊 😊

Great, fast service and tasty food will definitely be returning. Lovely view any time of day and dog friendly.

What a gem! My daughter treated myself and my sister to our first visit which definitely won't be our last. Lovely latte, beautiful food, delightful ladies preparing and serving .....what more could anyone want.....oh yes, the quiet calm surroundings and amazing sea views. Highly recommend a visit!

Lovely place. Really is hidden. Food, drinks and staff were great. Dog friendly not that we had our dogs with us!

Really good in so many ways. Great coffee, great snacks, well priced and good service. The 'Buts' are that the opening times seem a bit unreliable and that they don't take cashless payment. This is a bit of a killer for me as I don't carry cash. Sorry but the search for a good café that ticks all the boxes continues..!

Fabulous venue with excellent coffee and food available. Amazing location right on the seafront with fabulous views out to sea.

Solid Americano coffee and lovely view. Good peppy music. Both indoor and outdoor seating available. Pastries didn't look appealing to our preference. Clean public bathrooms near by.

Had lunch one day, great panini with salad and crisps. Next day went back for chai latte. Excellent food, excellent service . Only regret was didn't have room to try the delicious looking cakes. Cash only might put some off but we were ok with that. Highly recommended.

Found this little coffee house very nice. Latte was lovely. They have realy nice scones. Tomorrow I will try a cheese scone. The people are very friendly. And it's a lovely little place. Dog friendly area.

Switch the annoying music off! I want to listen to the waves and enjoy the peace!

Lisa and daughter: a proper family business giving excellent service!

Fabulous venue Great views over the sea👍👍👍 Great tasting coffee and pastries plus bacon buns😀 Excellent staff Prices very good considering the location

Brilliant Hot Beverages ...& Of course Cake

We wouldn't have found this place if it wasn't for Google Maps as it is hidden on the promenade a few minutes walk from the centre of town. They do various snack dishes. My wife had crumpets and I had a very nice cheese and tomato toasted sandwich. They were both nice and reasonably priced plus the coffee was good. We sat inside but there are plenty of tables on the promenade.

Nice skinny latte and cake, friendly service.

This place is in a fantastic location to enjoy the view. There are dog bowls with water outside of the cafe and the my sell sausages for dogs (which my dog loved). The staff are friendly and the place is small but welcoming inside. It’s cash only which might be an issue for some people. My friend and I were lucky to be walking in the area on a sunny morning and it was ideal for breakfast. The food and drinks were lovely and they have a fabulous range of plant based milk alternatives. Unfortunately they didn’t have dairy free spread which would have been nice for my vegan friend. I would highly recommend this cafe and will definitely return in the near future.

This coffee shop is on the beach, nice coffee and croissants. Sunderland is very nice

Perfect place for coffee and cakes and amazing sea views in Sunderland. We popped in during a rain storm and enjoyed the shelter and lighthouse views from inside. Cute industrial interior style and great coffee ( and hot chocolate with flake) A hit with the whole family.

Highly recommend it. Excellent customer service and friendly disposition of staff. Very polite and understanding to meet our needs. Will definitely keep coming back. 👌👍

Situated in a lovely suntrap place and the people that work there are lovely....nice service and prices not too bad

Great location for a coffee house........great coffee and food served...dog friendly ...5 stars isn't enough ...support your local businesses give it a visit

The best views the best coffee and hardworking and lovely staff what more do you want

Fabulous range of pastries and cakes. Great coffee Very helpful and friendly staff Outside and inside seating available Amazing views Prices good

Fabulous venue for having a great coffee sitting in the sun and looking out over the sea and beach. Great staff Excellent COVID practices in place.

We called in this morning on our walk,the Hideout is now our go to place to stop for our two black Americano’s and bacon sandwiches.Without doubt the best coffee and bacon sarnies in the area.It’s such a pleasure to sit in the sun overlooking the...

Absolutely love stopping off at The Hideout for our coffees and hot chocolates on our daily walks. The staff are lovely and very friendly. They have very good covid measures in place with lots of hand sanitiser. Nice to hear the music on our approach and of course, the coffee is lovely! Thank you lovelies

The best coffee on the promenade with a great range of snacks. They have their own brand of coffee which they retail. The staff are very friendly and helpful, always a cheery smile and a warm welcome here. Cheers guys, keep up the great work 🌝

Great service And coffee and breakfast to match

This coffee shop has become an oasis in an imaginary desert. Coffee in the sun or at least dry weather🤞🤞 great venue with a fabulous changing view 😎 Great staff👍👍👍 Great coffee 😎😎 Fabulous cakes😳😳

Love the hideout, always lovely coffee and great range of food. I live 40 minutes away and always try to get down when I can. They've done brilliant at adapting to Covid guidelines to keep everyone safe. It's great for a takeaway coffee and a walk along the seafront.

Great coffee and cake, doing very well for walkers and ideally located

This is always out goto place on our seafront walks. The coffee is always freshly made using their own blend of coffee beans and as we drink decaf it’s also very tasty which on a lot of the other places we’ve used on the seafront it either tastes like weak gravy or just like hot water. There is also a good selection of lovely cakes, scones and sandwiches and some specials. Everything we’ve had is so good and tasty. Then there’s the staff and they’re always friendly even when they are regularly rushed off their feet! Love the hideout

Five stars everyday for this highly recommended coffee shop. Perfect location on the promenade overlooking the sea. Fast friendly service and good selection of teas coffees and hot drinks available. Didn't have a chance to try the cakes this time but will definitely be back soon.

Congratulations to The Hideout! We are metres from this fabulous Café, and feel privileged to have it on our doorstep. We’re discerning about our coffee, so this was a real test for us. Well....The Hideout coffee is THE best in our area! The bacon sandwiches...

Coffee, tea and cakes were delicious. 😋😋.. recommended- they even have skimmed milk!

Good safe service, of snacks and drinks, good music playing to the best view on the coast

Fabulous days weather and fabulous coffee. Great venue for just sitting in the sun and enjoying the view out to sea👍👍👍 Staff great and following the COVID rules👍👍👍

Called this morning and sat inside. Very Covid secure with staff adhering to the rules . Coffee very good and the blond brownie very very good👍👍👍👍

Delicious coffee and lovely blueberry scones. Fantastic location overlooking the sea on the promenade. Definitely recommend.

This coffee shop was recommended by a friend so I was eager to visit. I waited in the queue and ordered a coffee, I was told they could not accept my card, they were accepting cash only. I didn’t have any cash on me and...

Take away service only but coffee and cakes/scones also available. Fabulous views and council esplanade seats a plenty to enjoy the fabulous coffee👍👍👍 The serving team are great and it was good to see them safe and well😎😎😎😎

Visited on fathers day for the 1st time, they've got social distancing in place. Staff very extremely friendly and the cakes too many to choose, we opted for cheese scone, red velvet cake and a chocolate hob nob biscuit and they were all delicious. the...

So pleased this place has reopened for take out, we have missed a decent coffee. The bacon sandwiches are amazing too, bacon is cooked to perfection everytime.

Excellent café. Great sea views, ideal stop-off when out on the bike, or whatever.

Always nice cuppa and friendly staff

Called again this morning and enjoyed a great large coffee. Fabulous selection of cakes and scones👍👍 Great venue Staff excellent Good atmosphere 👍👍👍

Three of us just visited for lunch, as I received voucher for a Christmas gift. very impressed, cosy little place with friendly staff. Had paninis and sandwich and all were delicious, the hideout hot chocolate was lovely. Will definatley recommend and will definatley return again...

Called this morning following a good walk from Whitburn and sat outside ❄️❄️ great service👍👍 Excellent coffee and the bacon sandwiches were very good👍. Fabulous location with fabulous views👍👍😎😎😎

Once again this cafe did not disappoint. Lovely food and a great choice of coffees (my fav). Hubby loved his bacon sarnie and kids over indulged with the most amazing hot chocolates. Staff welcoming as always. Definitely worth a visit!

Brilliant coffee house great food N drinks excellent views friendly staff what more could you ask for

Cute little cafe right on the prom, just the job when out for a stroll. Excellent sandwiches and cakes and even blankets to cosy under when the North Sea is being mean. Love this place

Absolutely my favourite place for Coffee and scone/ cake / snack. Dog friendly ( very important) fresh food . Friendly staff. Love it

Apart from the lovely view of the Sea I had excellent food great friendly service nothing was to much trouble thoroughly enjoy going there on a regular basis

Love this place. Coffee great and cheese scones are the best around. A great stop off point for a sea front walk or even if you just live good coffee. Janet Hayley Luca and the team are very hospitable.

Amazing service and friendly workers. Not a long wait for food and drinks. Food is delicious and they have a wide range.

Beautiful cafe, bacon sandwiches and coffees are amazing! Can’t wait to visit again to try even more! Beautiful views too all year round! 100% recommend!

5* food, drinks, service and dog friendly. Couldn't ask for anymore. Can't walk past without running in for a takeaway coffee and scone.

Have a walk down to. Sea burn lower prom and visit this lovely Cafe, wonderful food, friendly service and of course great coffee, and you can bring the dog!

This place is my home town and each time I visit the Hideout with friends, family, alone and always with my dog - it is the best place to hang out, take in the view whatever the weather. The coffee is always perfect

Love the hideout , top quality food and drinks , staff very friendly and accommodating lovely decor and views are fabulous . Highly recommend

Staff are friendly and helpful nothing is to much trouble amazing coffee and cakes and scones A real gem Amazing views.

This place is a little gem, the cakes and coffee are amazing. Excellent friendly service, the views are breath taking. Would highly recommend.

This little cafe on the amazing seaside promenade at the twin resorts of Roker and Seaburn in Sunderland never disappoints. Great location, good homemade food and super friendly service. Dog friendly also a plus. Tables inside and out make dining alfresco a joy to take in the amazing coastline. Luca also adds his warm Italian welcome and jovial personality to his cozy cafe. Great job with the decor too! Not to be missed.

What a nice place to sit and have a good coffee and bacon sandwich on a Sunday morning. Popular place and prices to match, worth dropping in to take the weight off your feet and chat to others

Lovely little cafe in the best location overlooking the sea. Seats inside and outside, cheerful staff, lovely coffee and food. The blueberry and lemon scones are amazing! Fab rest stop on a walk along the prom. Definitely recommended

Had such a lovely visit to the hideout with my 2 kids, and my mam a d her friend. Janet catered for my son who is quite particular with what he eats, and made sure my little girl was kept entertained also. Mam was far too excited over the choice of cakes and was given time to peruse the menu patiently before she made her choice (which was so big she took half home). The delicious Italian coffee kept me sane during a family day out! All in all an excellent service, delicious food with a beautiful view. Looking forward to our next visit

This place is a little gem . Lovely location . Friendly staff who more than make you welcome . Coffe red hot . Just how I like it . Bacon butties fab . Cheese scones amazing .

Regularly pop in hideout cafe for coffee and cake or the best bacon sarnie after lovely walk down the beach

Excellent little cafe and doggie friendly too.

It,s been a while since we visited the Hideout but the welcome you recieve is wonderful from all the staff.The food is lovely and their blueberry scones are to die for.Soo happy everything is going well for them all.

Enjoyed a lovely bowl of soup and a bacon sandwich. Always a good place to eat. Delicious food and friendly staff. Dogs are welcome here too.

Great venue today 👍👍 a free glass of Prosecco 😎😎😎😎 and a mince pie for all customers 👍👍👍👍 Great sitting outside today👍👍👍

Came in with my girlfriend and little girl. Lovely little shop for a pit stop along the beach. Can’t fault the staff or food we had at all.

The best coffee on the beach, lovely friendly staff, delicious cakes. What more do you want?

Great halfway stop off for coffee and cake / scone and a chance to sit and enjoy the views or just people and dog watch. Always greeted well off all staff and receive excellent customer service. Looking forward to you opening again soon.

Fantastic coffee, amazing cakes and great views.

My first visit and won't be the last, amazing little gem of a place. The food and drinks are superb, but the service is fantastic. My hubby managed to knock his drink flying and despite being busy, they helped me clean it all up properly and sorted him another drink out straight away. Did I mention this place is dog friendly too! Please keep up the good work, your place is wonderful. Love it. ♥️

Omg just had a blueberry and lemon scone they are delicious

Great venue Fabulous staff😎😎 Fabulous selection of cakes and scones Great views Portion size good Bacon sandwiches are great

Visited with my friend and her dog. Good selection of cakes and fab sea views. Woman who served us seemed a bit abrupt but maybe because it was busy. Would come back

Walk along Sunderlands lovely beaches and stop off for a coffee and cake. They have gluten-free options sometimes, sadly not when I went, but it didn't matter. Coffee was delicious and we were entertained by Bojangles ukulele group.

After a lovely walk along the seafront with the dogs called in for coffee & hot chocolate with all the trimmings plus cakes with a great sea view! Great place great staff

Great food and coffee with an amazing view! Great place to stop by at whilst I'm out with the dog :)

What a lovely little coffee shop with a great selection of cakes and scones and great staff and it's as a great view to enjoy coffee and cake

Nice coffee. Reasonably priced.
