Poorly cooked food. Gammon should have been grilled not pan fried.The residue fat left on plate unacceptable.Had far superior meal at a truck stop cafe.

Food quality very poor time we waited for dinner on Monday and breakfast on Wednesday was in excess of 45 minutes. To be very disappointed on its arrival. Room needs good clean. Shower was appalling no control over temperature either too hot or cold and no water pressure. Staff however that we did encounter on our stay were nice and friendly especially Leo. Generally feel the hotel looks very tired in need of some TLC a shame because it's a nice building in a lovely area Thank you

Lunch menu portion sizes were small especially the frittata, chips weren’t skin on fries more like bag of frozen chips. Fish fingers were tasty and crispy but came in sliced bread not soft farmhouse bread. Staff were friendly and warned us of the wait due to being a larger group.

Nice and friendly. I can imagine it being really cosy in the winter. Good sized room, nice comfortable bed. Bathroom spacious but the temperature controls on shower were hideous. The plastic trim on shower screen was bright green with slimy deposits. A soak in bleach and a squirt in the corner of the screen would have done wonders. I am not a picky 4 in a bed traveller but the manky trim was avoidable. All being said the rest was faultless. Food much better than I expected. The beer batter on the cod was perfectly crispy and well drained. Good prices too. Please sort out the bathroom of number 5!

We stayed here for 1 night only luckily. On the plus side, the staff are friendly, especially the young girl serving evening meals in the bar. But apart from that I wouldn't set foot in the place again. The bedrooms are dusty, wed8dnt have a blind at the bathroom window and people could see in. There were cobwebs hanging from the ceiling and the whole hotel needed a complete clean and upgrade.

No food in the evening, chef was off. Breakfast was ok, nothing special unfortunately. They need more cleaners, what they have is definitely not enough! Banister post going upstairs was filthy should have been white. The room was nicely decorated, very comfy bed but again a bit of spray bleach on paint work and in bathroom wouldn't have gone amiss.

New Landlady from January "Jordan" This place is rather nice... The whole family are pitching in as Jordan has not long taken over Vivian was busy cleaning today and doing a brilliant job, the bar and tea rooms looked spotless (Photos) she was a really nice lady... When Vivian left I was left in the capable hands of another family member Paula who lit the real fire and made the other customers feel welcome. The Queens head is a quite unique multi leveled building with 9 letting rooms Very comfy seating and a warming fire made it feel very cosy Pool table and fresh ground coffee available.

We called in on a Saturday afternoon after visiting Cragside. There was one other table within the food area and one girl stationed at the till within the food area which made it feel awkward somewhat. The food then arrived, the pastry on the pie was uncooked and the peas were really hard. I've never had peas this hard in my life so it did make me wonder why these were so special. The staff (not naming names because I'm not a grass) tried to take the plates before we had finished picking through it. There seems to be an issue with the till in there too. Everytime a card payment was taken, your till draw opens on whoever is standing there. Just a small security issue that might one day bite you on the bum. And please fix that door that keeps slamming 😂 almost developed PTSD from all the banging. Overall, I wish I tried other things and I probably would give this place a second bash but it would be my final visit if changes aren't made. Maybe a little more care to your customers even if it's quiet. Your customers don't need to give you the money when there's competition in the area, but make sure you give reasons for people to keep coming back!

Very noisy room, from kitchen extraction fan, shower far too hot (could not control it) and no rubber bath mat (very slippy getting in or out with no handles) and a radiator leak. The bed was comfy but had a blood stain. There was no daily room service, so no change of towels and make your own bed. The breakfast was ok but no cereals or fruit or yogurts. The evening meal was ok but very limited in choice and service was slow. The staff in general were good but 1 to 24 ment she was run off her feet and having to run up and down stairs to the kitchen (health and safety). The manager was not there all the time. To sum up needs a proper manager, daily room service, more food choices and it's over run with DOGS in the bedrooms and restaurant. In reply I must correct you, that i was never rude to you or any of your staff and i did not enter any room i shouldn't have, i saw your chef in the doorway and i stood outside the kitchen and spoke to your chef politely. You haven't addressed the comments on no cereals or yogurts and no room service with a blood stain on the bed, but thanks for moving us, we did not ask you to do that. Dogs should not be in the restaurant, anywhere else fine. Regards G

Most surely the joke here is that this drab excuse for a pub with its well deserved reputation for being a third rate establishment is run by a pair of drunkards-one of whom had his licence taken off him for crashing his car whilst 3 times over the limit-not such a great advert eh!? The drunkards-heidi the hideous and alan the alkie...... 'dream' of retiring to Cuba whereas the truth is they can barely afford the fare to the airport........Be like so many locals avoid these grubby creatures-lowlifes as many describe them......They think they can besmirch people-challenge me - my advice-as is the advice of many 'if you don't shut your grubby mouths' then you will an enemy who will-within the law of course-ensure that everyone knows in the future your own pasts.

Don't understand why the rooms are not serviced/cleaned daily at this hotel..reason given..Covid....Every one of the 4 hotels we have stayed in over the last 5 months have had full cleaning/beds made up etc. Cost cutting maybe at the Queens Head?...Not a biscuit given with the tea tray.. Frozen mixed fruit offered one morning (still frozen)/no cereal..... the cooked breakfast however was excellent. Worst part of our stay was the disgusting toilet brush which we asked to be changed..we are still to be given an apology. We will not be returning to this hotel. ooked cooked. breakfast was excellent. Worst

Not much atmosphere, service ok. Went for Sunday roast, we both chose dual beef and pork as we wanted beef, but also fancied crackling. When meal arrived pork skin was soft and the fat runny. No crackling whatsoever. Otherwise the meal was ok. Pointed issues out to waiter, and thought maybe he would deduct a pound to make it a single roast, but no deduction. Won't be back.

Sunday Lunch Advertised as their "famous Sunday roast," I'm not sure of its status of being famous, but I will say it was really excellent! My husband had the roast chicken and I had the roast beef, both were generous portions. There were both roast and mashed potatoes, seasonal vegetables, mine had a Yorkshire pudding and the chicken came with stuffing. There was also the best gravy I've had in a long time. Thoroughly enjoyed everything about the meal. We were both too full to have a desert, which was a shame as the choices all sounded delicious. The service was good and the price was very reasonable for the quality of the meal. The only negative was that you couldn't pay at the table, rather you had to go into the bar and queue up to pay, with only one person working on the bar it wasn't the best end to a lovely meal. Maybe this is something the management should consider changing.

We stayed in Rothbury for a few days on holiday and booked the Queens head for food on our last night. After booking online, we received a text through to say our table had been booked. We turned up on time for the bar staff to say there is no food served tonight. No one had bothered to get in touch to tell us, which was really inconsiderate.

Came here for a sunday dinner with 9 of my family member. We were waiting a while for the food and when it came out there was only 2 meals which turned out to be off another table. Waiting another 30-45 mins for the next set of food, when this came out it was also off another table. By the time the 3rd lot of food came out half of the family members had finished eating. The gravy was stock water. The food itself was alright, however when coming out for a family meal i would expect we could all eat together. Will not be returning here under any circumstances!

However, the Italian restaurant almost opposite was a much better experience, buzzing on a Saturday night, and open later. Would not revisit The Queens Head.

I went one week day with my Granddaughter as a treat and was so disappointed. The food was awful. I had the lamb rump and it was served in a bowl. Everything piled in . Very small portions . The lamb was all fat and gristle the veg was soggy and over cooked and the orange gravy was more like brown orange juice. My granddaughter had the steak and it wasn't cooked correctly and was the cheapest they could probably get and she wouldn't eat it. I gave my order and they got it wrong and even when it came back it was still wrong. The coffee was terrible and was cloudy. I payed nearly £40 for the worst meal in my life. I complained to no avail. The staff stand and slag off the management between themselves when customers are there. Overall the worst experience I've ever had. I had to pay for more food on the way home as what we had was bad and insignificant.

After a fantastic visit to Cragside, a friend and I stopped in Rothbury for a coffee and snack yesterday afternoon, Sunday 17th October. We entered the Queens Head, despite not having a reservation and asked if we might have a hot drink and a snack (tea / coffee and cake). Apparently being a Sunday, they only did Sunday lunch, having explained we really only wanted a slight snack and drink, it was agreed that we might have those, but as we were not ordering lunch, we could sit in the corner! I did joke to my friend that we were definitely the 'townies' as the staff seemed to know everyone else in the room. Taking our order, we did order a tea, coffee and two pieces of cake and two glasses of water. Not the greatest service in the world and despite trying to catch the eye of the waiting staff, we were out of luck, the glasses of water never did appear. Whilst I appreciate that we were not locals, however if you advertise outside your establishment that you provide food and drink, it is probably not too much to expect to receive those things. Finally to the young long haired, blond waitress, either tie your hair back or do not keep running your fingers through your hair when you are serving food.

We had an excellent lunch there today. The roast beef in the baguette was the thickest I have ever seen in a sandwich and the accompanying salad, potatoes and coleslaw were all gorgeous. The only slight disappointment was it was listed under the hot sandwich section but came cold. When I asked why they said the panini and ciabatta versions come hot but the baguette one doesn't. The waitress apologised. That didn't reduce my enjoyment of the meal though. We have always found the service really good too.

Lovely staff, place is lovely, but the rooms are dated somewhat. Our room has old furniture and furnishings and chipped skirting boards with a big size chip out the bathroom mirror

I visited the hotel only for a night due to a meeting I had to attend the following day in the town. The location of the hotel was perfect just opposite the train station and the person at the reception was very friendly. As I arrived just before 9 pm I questioned if the restaurant was still open in order to have some dinner but they informed me that restaurant closed at 19.30?! I thought it is too early and I had never experienced it in any other hotel. Once I joined the room there was a funny smell coming out from the bathroom and the room was super cold even though the heating was slightly on. Especially inside the bathroom I was freezing so I had to take a shower very quickly and jump inside the bed in order to warm up myself which isn’t very relaxing after hours of travelling. Lastly the following day even though my company’s reservation was breakfast included, in the morning I had been given the choice of complimentary breakfast only which was very very limited. Not even to mention that the check out was 10 am and the cleaners were speaking loudly outside of my room since 9 am stressing me out while just 5 minutes before 10 am I heard them saying “come on people 10 am is the checking out time” which I can definitely say it is not the way any hotel should perform. Overall it was a disappointing visit and I would never come back.

Its a shame the pub isn't open at lunchtime, but the owner did explain he can't get the staff or chefs. The area desperately needs a pub open at lunchtime, even although 1st Nov is considered "out of season" (the three surrounding caravan parks were all still busy). Very friendly owner, good beer, didn't sample the food in the evening. There aren't really any "cosy nooks" - it seems arranged for busy summer meal times. Dog friendly too.

An excellent ‘proper’ pub with real ales and friendly bar. Separate restaurant for gastropub food which was very good. The steak pie is as previously described: fantastic! Home made that day with generous filling. Delicious. The menu and daily specials were enticing. Our meals were perfectly cooked (compliments to the chef). A great place for great price.
