The Old Bakehouse in Northumberland

My partner visited with a friend today. Was told takeaway was available when he asked at 2:40pm, but then at 3pm was advised food was off when he asked for mince and dumplings, they should of advised food was only served till 3pm when he asked. They went ahead and made it after a carry on with the kitchen about making it. He arrived home with it the portion size was small and food was on paper plates not suitable for hot meal should of been in suitable takeout containers. The dumplings were not cooked they were raw and gooey. I am appauled and disgusted that someone would sell food looking like this to customer! Around £14 for 2 people not worth the money.

Proper place with proper food. At great prices. A gem of a place!!

Good good, great staff, tucked gown an alley, worth a visit

Lovely little place away from the main street staff are very friendly, the food is delicious and well presented...

Home made food cheap and fabulous

I have visited four times and food always tasty and hot. Staff friendly and quick service. Huge dumplings all homemade. My friends had the pie. Said it was delicious.

Good old fashioned food with good service cash only keeps the prices down

A great place for reasonably priced, tasty food!

A real gem! Lovely home-cooked food at great prices! The staff were warm and friendly and it had a cozy atmosphere! 🙂

Excellent value and great breakfast.

Great place great views of the harbour

Lovely simple heart warming food with friendly staff

Excellent full English with great service

Popped in this morning for a full English, absolutely gorgeous and staff great. Will definitely be back.

Lovely little cafe. Fresh food home made to order. Highly recommend

Called in on the off chance we'd get a table and so glad we did. I went for the 2 meats beef and pork dinner which was the best dinner I've had for a very long time and the Mrs had the Turkey dinner and she wasn't disappointed. My only gripe was the Yorkshire pudding as if they made there own it would be a real winner. I'd definitely go back for this.

Local cafe that serves top quality British food. Served by fast paced attentive staff with great attitudes and service. This hidden gem gets busy and only takes cash not card which is a lovely tradition. My children enjoyed their desserts and wanted to tip the staff a little for their hard work.

Take cash!! We were gutted we couldn’t visit here due to being cash only. Fully respect their decision around this but it caught us out being so reliant on Apple Pay. Sure we’ll be back up to visit as menu and food looked brilliant.

Lisa and staff a big thank you excellent food and service amazing portions everything just perfect the shock top quality food at a surprisingly low cost getting a mint at the end of our meal the added plus so look forward to seeing you on our next visit to Morpeth ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🥰

Friendly staff. Full English breakfast is great value for money.

Friendly staff. Great menu. I had lasagne. Was too full to try the desserts. Not too busy when we went. Relaxed atmosphere. Didn't feel rushed at all.

Nice place but slow service, poached eggs were over cooked but breakfasts were generally ok.

Sandwich was awful cheap small sliced brown bread hardly any filling waitress was lovely though but wouldn't go back

Had full English breakfast here this morning, absolutely spot on! Thoroughly enjoyed it, came with tea, toast and marmalade, and worth far more than they charge. Cannot recommend enough, many thanks x

Absolutely lovely breakfast for four sitting outside in the sun. None of us could believe what good value the food was! Great service too. Thanks

The hot pork and gravy sandwich was lovely, but the ginger sponge and custard was my favourite

Had a delicious breakfast and coffee at the old bakehouse, the breakfast was large and very well cooked, coffee was very nice.

Lovely stottie breakfast...thankyou

Excellent food and good prices.

I just love going here. The staff are lovely. The food is amazing, especially the fried breakfast as it has fried bread on it. The have a lovely homely menu

Excellent food, home cooked with fresh vegetables

Staff are really nice, panini was the best I ever had and make sure to stop off at the local garden! Jo & Theo

Lovely little place, food was nice, cheap & the staff were lovely & accommodating

Really tasty food, great value for money

Absolutely outstanding food, if it was awarded Mitchellin Stars, it would get 6. Just like your nans home cooking without the ridiculous prices. Very popular but seats inside become available very quickly. Outside seating for the good weather. Staff are brilliant. Just behind the main street under the arch. Well worth the trip to Morpeth.

Just had a lovely breakfast this morning. Lovely staff, really quick service and delicious food. I think the second picture says it all.

Excellent choice of meals to snacks, first class friendly service, food is well presented and very tasty, Trifle is amazing. All very reasonably priced. Highly recommend a visit, we will be back for more.

Lovely little place. £7.50 for a good full English and a cappuccino. Staff were great.

Visited three times now since last autumn,.always going for breakfast. Great little find and certainly the best value for money breakie in Morpeth.

Motorists if your Nth/Sth on A1 pop into this Cafe . I found by accident going A1 north , after driving 4 hour decided to park up , grab a bite to eat . I had Lambs liver , bacon , onions , big separate bowl of FRESH veg n mash potatoes, with big pot of tea . The meals are like the old truckers cafe meals , not the namby pamby baby food rubbish served in Soppy cafe types . I received the bill very good value , would be 50% more elsewhere. And the best bit was Cash only . Cash only . On my return South in 5 days , I shall be popping in for Lunch again . Thank you Staff .

Good old fashioned cooking,very tasty and good sized portions. Staff were very friendly and I will definitely be going back again

Recommended to us, absolutely lovely little hidden gem. Food is delicious, staff are super friendly

Little gem of a traditional cafe. Delicious food and friendly, efficient staff. Just remember it's cash only. Will definitely be returning.

Great place. Food and service top class

Lovely little place, great breakfast, friendly service and great value!

Omg what a lovely place absolutely gorgeous food, lovely staff 10/10

Beautiful food very good prices staff lovely

Lovely food at good prices and lovely friendly staff 😄

They do wonderful old fashioned lunches: roasts and liver with veg and proper puddings at very reasonable prices. Friendly efficient service. It's been busy when I have visited. Not particularly vegetarian friendly.

Nice food and good service prices are very good

I love this place l ordered mince and dumplings mashed potatoes and all the veg it was brilliant l really enjoyed the meal l had ice cream afterwards which was nice.

What a brilliant find this was, as we don't go to Morpeth often! Proper home cooked food at a decent price and an alcohol license too. Lovely staff, and very popular as there was a queue when we left.

Brilliant food, as always, Staff are also excellent and friendly .

Raw mushrooms in my omelette. Was awful. Never again.

have been going here as a family for our Sunday dinner for a few years now, Always good food and value, but I was sorry to hear on my last visit that the bakehouse is up for sale with Mike Rogerson, Just hope whoever buys it keeps up the same standards, well worth a visit.

Great atmosphere, superb food, great price. Outstanding restaurant. 5 star staff, who give you a great welcome, and work hard, to please their customers. You will go far and wide, to find any restaurant, that will come up to, The Old Bakehouse.

Can't go wrong with the mince and dumpling great value for money Staff very friendly

Lovely friendly staff and great food

Pet friendly outside doesn't count as pet friendly especially when is cold and raining outside 😂 food OK however no other milk alternative so couldn't have coffee and they only take cash which is a super inconvenient.

Fantastic place for a little lunch break.

Great cafe. Homemade food very tasty. This is my go to place for lunch in Morpeth.

The classic main meals were perfectly prepared, well priced and delicious! and because the chef was on the premises they were able to answer ingredients-questions more broadly than just the 14 key allergens. The portions we had were *very* generous... (possibly, as it was late afternoon, they gave us extra knowing there would be no customers after us). Open 9-4 seven days, the Old Bakehouse is tucked away through one of the old carriage-arches off the main street. This made its outdoor seating quiet, sunny and free from passing traffic. We plan to return to check out more of the menu either for a breakfast (served to 11.30) or main (varying daily, the pies or salmon Wellington looked so tempting). Or maybe a lighter panini to save room for apple pie/ scone/ trifle or lemon meringue pie! They made me happy by stocking decaff tea & the team were alert friendly and attentive. A perfect experience all round, wrapped up by crossing the lane for a zen moment in the community garden opposite. They are a CASH ONLY business with ATMs fairly close.

Took my husband who's a big breakfast fan there. He absolutely loves it. Price is reasonable as well.

The staff are very friendly and inviting if you have dogs. Even to the point of a treat for them too. The food was lovely for us. Lemon Meringue pie light and delish. We sat outside and the area was so relaxing. Been many times and will keep going.

Great little place, especially when the weather is nice to sit outside in amongst all the flowers. Amazing service, and good food. Very reasonably priced too. Would definitely recommend.

Loved this little cafe, service food top class.

I have visited a few times now excellent food, fantastic value for money staff are so friendly and can't do enough for you highly recommended

Very busy friendly cafe plenty to choose from didn't wait long for meals

The best roast dinner I’ve had in a long time , freshly cooked veg to perfection . Such a warm and friendly place too, thanks x

Hard to find , but worth the effort when you do, thanks we will call again

Tasty, traditional british lunches, all fresh. Friendly staff, nice atmosphere. Very affordable prices.

Lovely food with friendly helpful staff

Wonderful cafe through the archway just off the main street.pleasant staff good food and drinks.

Great service and good food. The outdoor seating could be nicer

Lovely food and very friendly staff.

Absolutely beautiful, highly recommend booking as this place is so busy ( I understand why) food was outstanding ( roast dinners and puddings , unreal) staff couldn’t have been nicer, owner friendliest person going. Indoor or outdoor seating . Had lunch today Sunday, booked again for Wednesday and going again Friday . Give them a call if your passing

Food was lovely. Friendly staff made you welcome

First visit with blind grandson..excellent service Very patient 😌

Busy place we only waited 5 mins though as other diners were ready to leave. An excellent experience, quick service we had a delicious lunch and purchased sweets to bring home as they looked too nice not to. Lovely friendly staff.

If you want a good meal in Morpeth go here.Great food Great staff

This is my favourite eating house in morpeth it's excellent!

Fantastic food, lovely staff, excellent value for money.

Great service and food at realistic prices.

What an absolute gem of a cafe, real home cooked food.x

This place is amazing.. fabulous home cooked food.. great breakfast and very good price..a hidden gem.

Great service great food filled me up and great prices too will be back again soon

Food all home made can't go wrong here they even do takeaway now one of the best tea rooms in Morpeth so if u passing why not call in for a piece of cake and wash it down with a hot coffee

Very helpful and friendly staff, with a good choice of food at reasonable prices. Definitely call again.

Really friendly staff. Breakfast was great value, very filling and served quickly. Staff suggested they will look after bikes for cyclists. However, keep in mind that on our visit they accepted cash only though a cash point is very close. Lovely place to eat. Wife and I tried both the veggie and non veggie breakfasts. We were very pleased with both.

Good simple tasty food, roasts when we were there. Very good value, The service was friendly but a little chaotic, possibly because it is so popular, especially with locals.

This is a small coffee shop and restaurant that serves traditional British style food, eg. Mince and dumplings; roast pork, turkey and beef; traditional puddings at reasonable prices. The full English Breakfast is well worth the money. It is busy throughout the day - seven days per weekvery but is particularly popular on Sundays. We love this place for the food, excellent customer care and value for money. Lisa and her team make you really feel welcome. Highly recommended.

Great wholesome food Great price and fabulous service

Not dog friendly. Dog friendly is defined as being welcome on the premises. Only allowed outside ; which every pub beer garden and establishment with outside area allows Don’t advertise as dog friendly it’s mis-leading

Always busy, home cooked food and good puddings to.

Definitely recommend a visit to this very friendly cafe, food is great and value for money

I ordered tea and a slice of cake. The cake was very fresh and lovely and the pot of tea was quite big. Only negatives is our server forgot to bring milk for my pot of tea and the table we had was so wonky due to different size legs it could almost qualify as a seesaw. It was quite distracting as it kept rocking back and forwards.

Amazing food amazing staff food always tasty staff can’t do enough to help highly recommended

Really lovely little place. Home cooked food. Great value too.

Nice and quaint. Good food and excellent staff.

Absolutely fabulous would highly recommend a visit.
