We came to this little cafe in the heart of Britain as we had heard the food was delightful and the village was lovely. 100% accurate on both counts. Chef Carlos has a great imagination and it shows in the special sandwiches and desserts served. The sandwich I had was a chicken, ham, and avocado with garlic mayo on toasted white bread. My wife had the butternut squash falafel wrap with whipped feta and pickled beets. Chef's lovely wife Nicole extends charm and grace taking orders and dishing friendly conversation. We finished our meal with a slice of lemon icebox pie with a crust of ground digestives. It was light and delicate with a delicious taste. We walked around the village loving the smiles and friendly greetings of the village folk. Walking along the banks of the Tyne is beautiful and we visited the sites of Vindolanda and the Roman Army Fort along Hadrian's Wall. The museums are well curated and the sense of historical awe was powerful. This visit was a highlight of our trip to England from California.

I was looking for a quick lunch in Haltwhistle, I didn't want to buy a supermarket sandwich. I spotted the cafe on the main street, I was greeted warmly and was pleasantly surprised with the choice of sandwiches. I ordered a Pastrami, sauerkraut pickle and mustard mayo sandwich, this was made for me. It was very tasty, something different for a change.

Got here just before closing time. Such a friendly, welcoming place. Food & tea was good, but the service made it. Happily come back to a cafe where the service is this nice.

Visited here with the wife for Sunday Roast, friendly and swift service, delicious and interestingly unique flavours from the Terrine starter, both beef & chicken roasts executed perfectly down to the red cabbage, best sticky toffee pudding I have ever had, usually a heavy dessert but was just the right finish to the meal.

9 Clayport Street Alnwick, Northumberland NE66 1LAdonner wraps are smaller now - i got 2 both under 500g and the bloke looked me square in the eye before overcharging me by £2... £16 instead of £14 - and this was teatime not 2 in the morning, he must be raking it in when everyone's hammered. £8 for less than 500g of donner wrap (its should have been 7 i checked when i got home.). not only are the wraps smaller but he also likes to over charge if he thinks youre drunk.

32 NarrowgateAvoid. Avoid. Avoid. As poor as Weatherspoons - if not worse! Didn’t realise it was a cheap chain place when we went in. All microwave food. Drinks were poor too. Save your money and visit a local independent instead. After speaking to a local, it has recently been taken over by a pub chain, hence why the reviews and stars are misleadingly high.

Front StreetNormally enjoy the food from porkys. However on this recent occasion, I ordered the meal as per normal, waited 2 hours, by the front door with sight of the door. I got a notification to say the food has been delivered, so I called. As soon as I mentioned my food has said its been delivered, I was told on the phone by staff, oh the driver knocked loads and rang you and you didn't answer. I hadn't even given my address, name or any info yet at this point, so that was odd. Then when I said I've been waiting here the whole time and my phone hasn't rang once, she said let me check. And then again reiterated the driver said you weren't there and rang you. Waited 2 hours for absolutely nothing and a pile of crap excuse to palm me off for my food. When absolutely no person ever attempted to deliver the food. Won't be coming back now, as the bull being thrown out has left a very bad taste. From a customer of over 30 times.
