The Joinery in County Durham - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Saturday morning walk so called in for breakfast. Lovely and warm with fire next to our table. Good choice on breakfast menu, maybe a little bit more expensive than before, but food still good. Very hot drinks too. Just a pity it’s not open on Sundays.

Charged 16.99 for 2 breakfast sandwiches! Partner didn't realise until he got home and checked the reciept.

We’d originally gone to Bayberry Hollow for lunch, but the service was so poor and slow we left and came here instead. I’m so pleased we did, the food was so tasty and much cheaper than expected. Tasty sausage bap (loads of sausage) and a tuna panini with sides of coleslaw and tortilla chips. We’ll be back again soon.

Been to the Joinery several times and enjoyed it. Yesterday the chocolate chip cookies cost us £3.95 each - a box of 15 from Costco is £6.99 - I know things have gone up but seriously that’s some profit !

While on our regular Sunday walk, called in here for our breakfast buns. Lovely little cafe and always feel welcome. Must admit we’re never disappointed, lovely bacon bun & egg with mushrooms bun.

On my visit today I witnessed , on two occasions the picnic tables upended while customers sitting at the table , when mentioned to owner no reply and no apology, so be where the outside tables are a accident waiting to happen

Called in for a coffee and couldn't resist the cream scone. Lovely and fresh served warm with clotted cream and jam. Great place great service and very covid safe.

Went for a quick coffee with my son- great coffee- fabulous cake - good service. The menu is well priced with something for everyone. We will return, well worth popping in.

We decided to go here for breakfast after seeing it on Facebook. We rang before we set off and they reserved a table for us. We ordered- a fruit scone, a full english breakfast, a bacon sandwich, toast, 3 coffees and a water. Everything was cooked fresh and was beautiful. The bacon sandwich was huge and filled with good quality bacon. The scones were home made and came with jam and cream. The full English had 3 sausage, 3 rashers of bacon, 2 eggs, beans, tomatoes and mushrooms and came with a side of toast! Which was amazing value! All members of staff were friendly and polite and we cant wait to come back to try the cakes!

Good full English. Freshly cooked, generous portion, pleasant service. Covid adherence. Felt safe. One way system was in place when we went - in through patio doors, out through normal way in. The tables are well spaced and government guidelines were applied.

.... what an amazing breakfast, a full English that keep me going all day, delicious, perfectly cooked and outstanding value for money. And, a proper mug of good coffee. I'll be back!!

Off out on our Sunday walk and called in for brunch. Ordered our drinks and meals & not disappointed, food as always, excellent. Extremely large portions & not expensive either. I would suggest that breakfast could be offered in 2 sizes, big & very big! Cannot fault this place. ⭐️

This establishment is just a stones throw from where I live.My friend recommended The Joinery. A cold,wet January morning and hot food beckoned. I had the full English complete with toast and a pot of tea,the plate was full,well cooked and very reasonably priced. Service was a little slow but on the plus side the food was hot and freshly cooked. The staff were first class. Will definitely recommend .

Have visited a couple of times and been pleased with the food. Friendly service although you may have to wait a little as things are freshly cooked.

Excellent service all hand made cakes and scones lots more and you can get a meal there and actually afternoon tea on Sundays if you order take away meals to order as well car parking is available on front and across the road

We have been to the Joinery quite a few times and particularly like their soups.. On our last visit, sadly we had to wait 40 minutes for our soup to arrive. I did ask in between if there was a problem and I was told...

Altogether we have been here about 4 times and each time the food has been very good.We have tried various meals from jacket potato to home made pie and each time they were always very tasty but i have to say the breakfast stands out...

Decided to walk here for a breakfast since kids were away for the weekend. Setting is great and staff are friendly. Ordered 2 breakfasts which came promptly enough. The food was good but honestly I expected more from the place. The toast didn't seem particularly...

Full English breakfast with orange juice, cheese scone & apple juice, 2 sausage buns with tea all under £18!!! Lovely little place, deceptively spacious inside.

having moved back to my home town burnopfield i felt the need to try out this place..lovely corn beef pie spicy wedges and peas..latte will be back.

A small car park and ramp for wheel chairs but would be quite awkward manoeuvre ring the chair once inside as cramped. Shabby sheet style cafe' not huge inside and can imagine can be busy, was only 3 tables occupied and the noise level was...

Everyone cooked fresh to order, waiting in a lovely comfortable dining room with log burner. Excellent value for money.

Having booked a table for twelve o'clock I was more than disappointed that we had to wait until twelve thirty to be served the afternoon tea we had preordered. When we arrived at twelve o'clock the previous customers were still seated. I believe they had...

Absolutely fabulous afternoon tea, best we have ever had ! Could not fault it, all freshly made and enormous portions.

Met friends at the Joinery for afternoon cream tea,a quaint little tea room,can highly recommend,food was amazing,very well presented,will definitely be going back to sample other things from the menu..

Stumbled on this little gem quite by accident. The menu boasts home made produce with the sort of food your granny used to make. My mum had corned beef and potato pie while I decided to go for the tun salad since I'm on a...

Both times I've been its been a bit quiet, staff are lovely and food was nice and hot, next time we're going to try the afternoon tea.

Came to the joinery at 9.20am, there was three tables in including us and was 15 minutes until we were even acknowledged and our order was taken. Waited until 10am for food to come. I had the scrambled egg and toast which was basically scrambled...

We had my daughters baby shower here it's good food nothing is to much trouble a real splendid experience for the hole party

Nice for afternoon tea - we were delighted with our gift voucher for delicious sandwiches and cakes plus nice pot of tea. Prices are about average for this sort of venue. Lovely friendly staff and good service. Small, quirky gift area in entrance with some...

Called here for a bite to eat, nice little cafe. Our food was just ok but had placed an order for a Takeaway whilst ordering our food. Unfortunately takeaway was binned..pie portion tiny, mostly crust and chips undercooked. Disappointed needed a takeaway for

Been here a few times now for breakfast, as well as lunch. All of the food I have had has been really nice and the café itself is nice and cosy. A full English breakfast costs around £5.50, this includes tea or coffee. There is...

So I went to the Joinery with my Mum when it recently opened and it's pretty good. I could end there, but if you've read any of my reviews you know I'm not going to... Good things... well! There's lots of good things to say!...

Visited The Joinery today and it is a lovely quaint little place with good available parking (although over a main road, there is a small car park directly in front) On entering there is a small array of funky little gifts which would make good...

.. but the service was good, the "Americano" coffee delicious huge and warming. We enjoyed our meals - jacket pot with tuna mayo for my son while I had a pulled pork panini. Proper salads too - not just a garnish. Great value.

Good breakfast, good cooking, easy parking, friendly service with lovely warm fire. We now often call in if we need breakfast if travelling into Newcastle/Gateshead area on A692. Good value for money. Beware closed Monday but opens at 9am.

We visited The Joinery for breakfast as we have booked it for a baby shower and my wife was very impressed, rightly so. The interior is laid back , shabby chic style with stripped floors . We chose the full English which arrives with tea...

We have passed The Joinery several times and decided that we would stop by for brunch. My wife chose a lemon meringue cake with americano coffee while I chose the full english and breakfast americano deal (decaf available). While the FEB lacked black pudding (not...
