We came in for a vanilla ice cream in a sugar cone with raspberry sauce. The quality was excellent but I thought it a little expensive for £3.50 as you do get quite a small portion.

After a go on the machines in the dunes arcade we crossed the road for ice creams. Our grandson was more interested in the flake and wafer than the ice cream. We obviously helped him finish off the ice cream. A hot day so sat outside. You can sit inside and order or use the hatch to get served and seated outside.

Have called in here with family for lunch for a few weeks now and although there are gluten free and vegetarian options on the menu there is nothing on the menu for Vegans.

A visit to the South Marine Park is not complete without a bite to eat and a cup of tea or coffee. I enjoyed a very welcome and tasty cheese toasty and pot of tea at Minchella's which is situated in the park.The name of Minchella is synonymous with South Shields and has been for many years. When I attended South Shields Marine and Technical College in 1959/60, I used to frequent the ice cream parlour on Ocean Road. The old Marine School was nearby and used used then for the teaching of GCE Maths and Physics. The ice cream parlour offered a welcome respite from these disciplines!!

I took my son for an ice cream on Thursday at the take away section and ordered him a small tub of ice cream with a flake. This cost me £3 !!!!! It was a very small tub and I was absolutely shocked at the price…..how can they justify charging £3 for a small tub. I normally go at least once a week inside for a cuppa and tea cake and my parents often go for food and that isn’t as steep as the ice cream. We will all be boycotting this place from now on ! My advice go to the fair for your ice creams :)

Hello, Yesterday I visited the cafe in South Shields park. I had two young children with me, one of which is baby that I was breastfeeding. I was sat at a table out side with my toddler while feeding my baby. As breastfeeding makes me thirsty I do normally get myself some water before I start, however with a hungry baby I just sat down and stared feeding him and forgot the water. I asked a member of staff (curly purple/brown hair and glasses) if I could get some water and she told me to wait in the que. I understand it might not be table service but in some circumstances I think it would be acceptable to take a breastfeeding mother some tap water. I could hear her telling a colleague and laughing. We had also asked if I could get my daughter and my water bottles refilled with tap water, I was informed that they didn’t do that and I could purchase some for £1.20. The main reason I wanted it refilling is to save on plastic. Lovely icecream though.

Minchellas have run ice cream shops in South Shields for decades and is renowned for its lovely ice cream. The cafe is smart and functional and is right at the entrance to a popular Victorian built park with a pond,ducks and geese, boats and two large play parks, one for younger and one for older children. At the right hand side is an attached kiosk serving ice creams, lollies, drinks and cakes. Seating is available but it does get busy. Luckily I wanted a takeaway coffee only so there was no queue. The cost was reasonable at £1.70 for a large coffee and although not the best coffee I’ve had it was pleasant enough as was the staff member who served me. Very busy as people took advantage of pre tier 3 lockdown

Whilst staying over in Newcastle visiting family for the weekend we visited this popular cafe-come-ice parlour in the park which overlooks the boating pond. After a family member boasted about the best ice cream in the world was to be found in her hometown of South Shields. Guess what following our lunch at Coleman’s and a bit persuasion we popped in for coffee and ice cream just to test out her claims. There’s a wide selection of ice cream and I must admit what we selected was so so so good……. creamy, smooth and delicious. To be honest when I visit restaurants I normally end up with a simple vanilla ice cream and rate that restaurant on that ice cream, I must admit I found Minchella’s ice cream up there at the top! Of course you can eat there, they do have a good cafe type menu and selection. What a wonderful experience, the staff are amazing, they worked non-stop and such team work, I believe understaffed, the place was heaving, even for a winter's day. So beware you may have to wait for your coffee as they only have one machine, however it’s well worth the wait for the ice cream.

This is the branch of Minchella's serving the beach, not the one in the centre of South Shields. We used the wrong post code for the sat nav without realising that there are two outlets. Anyway the ice cream is excellent, though one of our party was disappointed in the knickerbockerglory which was mainly jelly.

I have visited this Minchella’s several times over the Easter holidays with family - young children and friends. It’s always busy! Which is a good sign but service is excellent, efficient, friendly and always a good choice.I stuck with simple toastie- cheese and onion but it always presented well with salad . They do have a good range of sandwiches and panini sandwiches also as well as jacket potatoes with good range of filling. Children’s meals are also available. The only problem is getting a table! Being is the park is a lovely location- and great tasting ice cream too! Highly recommend if your ever in South Shields town centre!

The cafe is clean and bright we a lovely menu with daily specials. The staff were friendly and helpful and the food was lovely, portion size was perfect and the cakes were fantastic. Good value for money. There is nearby parking on the roads adjacent (pay and display) or free parking if you want to walk. Great with kids and I imagine oils be busy when the weather is nice.

Me and my friend went here for a quick lunch at half term - despite it being fairly busy we received our orders really quickly (a cheese and onion toastie and an egg muffin with mushrooms). The muffin was delicious, with the bread really fresh and the egg cooked perfectly. It was good value for money and the only slight downfall was the tables which could have done with a bit of a clean, but we weren't too fussy about that.

Well i was not disappointed we had strawberries and cream the ice cream was lovely and creamy you could really taste the difference. Get there as early as possible as the place gets very busy from around 11 am onwards. Try the toasties and coffees as well all very good value for money with very good and attentive staff who also work hard keeping the place clean and tidy. The only thing i found of poor quality was the coke it is very watery with little taste

we visit this café at least twice a month or more and spent about £30 to £50 per month even through the winter months and did this for the last 21/2 years with our granddaughter and now granddaughters. On Sunday 11th march 2018 like normal me my wife and grandchildren went for a meal and ice cream we waited for a seat inside when we sat down my wife asked a young girl if it would be possible if they could make one scrambled egg and a piece of toast for our youngest granddaughter who is only 10 months old and the rest of us having a meal each but she was busy so she asked the older woman who always stands at the till staring at everyone (people know who she is ?) this staff member said I would have to ask the chef if it would be ok but when she stood in front of my wife and the chef she asked him but while asking him she stood shaking her head saying no so the poor chef could not say anything but my wife seen it all and said to the woman it does not matter as I have just watched you telling the chef no. this was so degrading as we waited for a seat sat down with the grandchildren then had to leave because this most ignorant horrible person refused to serve a 10 month old baby with scrambled egg my money not good enough now WILL NOT BUY ANOTHER THING FROM MINCHELLAS. but I would like to add we went to SMITHS CAFE/FISH BAR in the fair ground and they served us no problems at all food and service including staff was excellent and it was at cheaper and cleaner

Today I brought a class of 10, year 3 children from a local special needs school to Minchellas for a taste of their fantastic ice cream. I called ahead to ensure this would be fine and they couldn’t have been anymore accommodating! We had a fabulous afternoon enjoying some well deserved treats with the wonderful view of the park and the staff were amazing, saving us space for our arrival and being incredibly helpful during our visit. It is easy to understand why Minchella’s is so successful with such support of the community and the young individuals who access it. Thank you again for an amazing visit!!

Visited bar blue for a family meal lovely surroundings decor etc staff exceedingly polite and helpful. A vast choice of meals we all funished ours and said how lovely it was best pie lamb fell off the bone and was the best ever. Gdaughter had fish and chips devoured it all, fajitas and mince and dumps fimished the choices and again lovely then desserts arrived to complete a top class meal thankyou from us all for a lovely meal and culinary enjoyment. Additionally it is a total disgrace that customers sre charged 1 50 for a portion of sauce mint ketchup etc even parmesan is £1. My g/dtr loves her ketchup so we ended up grttin several portions BB will no doubt be chaging for salt and pepper soon tight bastards. You can buy catering packs of sachets 100 for less than 8 quid so how PATHETIC is it to charge 1 50 per portion . The owners /management need to get a grip or lose custom be told !!!!
