The Stables Coffee House & Bistro in Stockton-on-Tees - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

The pancakes are AMAZING! We love this little gem of a cafe! Staff are pleasant, food is lovely and coffee is nice!

Access and parking good. Sunday family lunch - ordered lamb - delicious, vegetables and accompanying dishes were also very tasty and plentiful. All the members of my family were equally complimentary of the food. Decor and general ambiance was very pleasant. The staff were warm and welcoming. Enjoyed watching the horse and their riders through the large glass windows.Seated promptly and served promptly. Sticky toffee pudding absolutely gorgeous. All the three young servers/assistants were courteous and professional - on the ball and confident. Well done to chef and kitchen staff. Finally toilet area very clean. Second visit and would recommend. Look forward to heading back for brunch one day soon.

Great for lunch or a coffee. V reasonable prices too Plenty of parking and you can watch the horses being exercised through the endow while you dine. Outside could do with a bit of tidying up but that’s my only negative

We paid our first visit to The Stables today and were delighted with what we saw. Our friendly waitress Jess delivered first class service with a smile and that service was prompt and efficient. We just called in for morning coffee / tea and toasted tea cake/ cheese scone but looked at the other menus available and will definitely be returning soon. Well done The Stables and well worth a visit😃

We booked for my Mum’s 90th birthday meal I rang and booked for 10 including 2 children having established they didn’t need high chairs I then rang to add one extra on the Friday before and was told the booking was only for 8 and it might be a bit of a squeeze so not the best start! On arrival we weren’t offered drinks and were told they were waiting for people to finish before we could get enough chairs. We were eventually seated and after a long wait drinks orders were taken and after another long wait served and then food orders were taken our two little ones wanted Yorkshire puddings as a starter and the one served to my grandson was basically cremated it was changed when asked but surely shouldn’t have left the kitchen like that! Then we were told after the other starters were served that the chef had burnt the soup but they could offer French onion as an alternative but only one came out when two were ordered eventually everyone was served and starters were very tasty. Then one chicken main course and one beef were served before we were told they weren’t ours and were whipped away again even though my mum (90) had already put her fork on the plate sorry whoever it was meant for! We were told ours were next out and after about another half an hour indeed they were! The food was tasty we all enjoyed it but the service was absolutely dreadful such a shame I think they can’t cope with large parties! Wasn’t quite the 90th birthday celebration I’d hoped for for my Mum!

Discovered The Stables three weeks ago, and I've been there four times already for breakfast. Superb menu, with some quality options. The scrambled eggs with chorizo for breakfast is my favourite. Pleasant decor, and friendly staff.

We enjoyed a lovely breakfast. A little pricier (but only by a bit) but quality ingredients, perfectly cooked. Stornoway black pudding, egg was runny yet no jelly on top so perfect. Love the idea of watching the lessons while you have a coffee. Will definitely be back

Beautiful setting, lovely food, great service. Catered well for my daughter who has coeliac disease. Would recommend!! Make sure you book first as it’s not massive.

Highly recommended by others the food was excellent however the buildings were poor and very cold . The surrounding area was not very welcoming and the toilets were huge and freezing cold and badly finished. It’s not just the food unfortunately that makes a good review and for that reason won’t be returning

Only just heard about this place and was delighted to here of their offerings. Couldn’t believe it had been open for 2 years ! I assumed it was relatively new. Had a Sunday lunch, which was pretty decent. Gravy was very nice and you could tell the chef cares about his food. Everything professional layed out etc My only criticisms and I mean this in a constructive manner. The place is cold. Half of the diners had their coats on and I seen 3 different tables complaint how cold it was and the draft from toilet door. Waitresses need to learn to be a-bit more friendly and attentive. Would highly recommend despite my 2 gripes. Would I go back? Yes definitely, but maybe for a special night that they do. I have the utmost respect for any business owner to start a business, and I hope this place goes strength to strength. But most importantly, get that heat sorted!

Booked a table for 6 for a Breakfast to celebrate my Mams 91st Birthday. The whole experience was absolutely the best. Excellent setting. Excellent service. Excellent food. Excellent ambience.

Set as it suggests in an equine environment, when in the bistro one can watch the horses being ridden through a large picture window. The prawn linguine is excellent and nice sandwiches. The service is fairly slow as it’s all freshly prepared- not a problem as it’s a nice setting to relax in.

Visited for lunch having had word of mouth recommendations twice in 2 days . The prawn linguine and mushroom risotto were exceptional and didn’t break the bank. Going again this Sunday for a roast .

Our second visit here was for lunch. We had been impressed on our first visit of the overall quality of the place considering its unassuming location. The staff are smartly dressed and the service is attentive. We ordered teas, a hot beef ciabatta and a chicken club sandwich. Unfortunately, my wife started to feel unwell whilst waiting for the food. We were offered to take it away with us and it was nicely boxed and bagged. Still warm when we arrived home we found the food to be excellent, especially the hot beef and gravy ciabatta, probably the best beef sandwich I have ever had. Will definitely be back.

Had a fantastic Sunday dinner today , the meat was beautifully cooked and the vegetables were delicious. Service was excellent. I would certainly recommend this venue and will come again .

Have visited several times and always had excellent service and delicious freshly cooked food. The cheese soufflé is the best!

gorgeous food, gorgeous staff, gorgeous atmosphere! The Sunday dinner is out of this world and the gravy is the best I've had!
