Vercelli in Northumberland

Delicious food, great service, good-sized portions.

Absolutely fantastic meal tonight for the last day of our holiday. The restaurant was quite busy but everything arrived together, was hot and our server Izzy was superb.

A nice find in Hexham. After 4 days of hiking, pasta was the craving. For Gluten free, this is THE place. GF pasta AND GF pizza choices. Well mixed Cocktails at 2 for only £15. But the food was definitely a highlight. Lots of choice on the menu and every dish our table of 4 ordered was excellent. (Pictures attached). Lovely and friendly service was a bonus

Vercelli Restaurant is a lovely place to visit.Lovely special menu at great prices. Great cocktails.

We visited here following a 10 mile hike, with no prior booking. Staff were very friendly and we were seated in the bar area as it was almost fully booked. The bar area is just as pleasant as the restaurant section. We went for the early bird offer, which was incredible. The portions were big and the food was faultless. I would happily return here for great food, a welcoming atmosphere, and excellent service!

the interior looks lovely and clean. Staffs were pleasant and and lovely looking and neat with their uniform. Also the toilet was clean. I love the place.

We pre booked for Friday evening and the menu is fantastic and lots of lovely choices. The food and service was first class and I had vegetarian spaghetti which was delicious and oh the side of chips best ever. We will definitely recommend and return

Very good pizza, would definitely have it again, glad they're open at lunch time. Good service. Sat outside with the dog.

Really yummy pizza, a good dish selection and super friendly and professional staff. Will come back

Well what I can I say. Unfortunately we were 20 minutes late for our table , should have been 8pm and arrived 8:20. Waiter (she/her) advised us that the kitchen was closing in 10 minutes and as we were late we had better order. The attitude was dreadful but we duly ordered. The restaurant was relatively quiet yet food was still being served. Food continued to be served well after 8:30, and after we had eaten. People were also arriving after 8:30. The waiter was just rude and abrupt and not interested. The food to be fair was very good, pizza and pasta tasted nice. Due to the terrible service we only had one drink and decided against a desert. Didn’t want to spend any more money here. Shame but the service and attitude ruined the meal.

Been here before and will visit again. Food is always beautiful. Lunch time special an absolute treat and three hearty courses for £15 per head. Highly recommend meatballs and the pizza was a delight. Sat outside at the back in the sun trap of a garden hidden gem. Many thanks!

Great find. Food was lovely, big portions, fresh and tasty. Excellent service. And there was a deal of 3 courses for £15 which I thought was really good (we didn't do it though). Would definitely go back if I returned to Hexham.

Come To Vercellis Regularly, Usually for Drinks and Snacks But Occassionally a Meal. Last Week They Hosted Our Wedding Party and It Was Lovely, The Decor Is Great and Always Very Clean, Staff Very Friendly and Accommodating, Food Was Lovely and I Hear the Gluten Free and Vegan Was Great Too! They Provided for Shellfish, Dairy and Nut Allergies as Well as The Above and Vegetarian.

Place is ok but not value for money. I am coeliac so I had limited options and got charged for my pizza extra £3 for gf base and even charged extra £1 for the replacement topping but the chicken on the pizza was nonexistent. Total five cubes of chicken😅😅 I mean this is just a rip off !! I don’t know if I should laugh or get angry ?! 😏 I am asymptomatic coeliac so it’s very important for me to eat at places that guarantee no cross contamination.

Lovely food, excellent service, great atmosphere and a brilliant price.

absolutely the best Risotto I have had in Northumberland . 5 star star 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Don't miss this special place. The dishes were smashing and satisfied my gluten-free wife. The desserts were pleasant.

Gorgeous food but loud and overwhelming atmosphere! Staff are super friendly but service is a little slow- we waited 30+ minutes after ordering for starters. The main restaurant area is lovely but very echoey so everyone's chat is amplified making for a very loud and overwhelming space. Ultimately the food is beautiful so would probably revisit midweek where it would hopefully be less busy.

Really good pizza, sides and fast service. Decent value for money, have been before and will be back.

Don't be put off by the narrow front entrance: inside is a spacious large restaurant and the service is excellent. Classic, well cooked Italian options served by charming young staff who also coped well with some large parties of people, and those with young children.

I booked for this Bottomless brunch weeks ago after seeing it advertised on Vercelli's Facebook page. I have enjoyed lovely meals at Vercelli's in the past and I thought that Bottomless Brunch there with my old school friends would be great. .... I was wrong. 😭. The singer in the bar was right next to our table and he just belted out song after song and it was SO SO LOUD!!! I hadn't seen my friends for years and we couldn't chat as we could not hear each other above the singer. I just want to say, I love live music and the singer was ok but this was not the time or the place for him. It honestly ruined our day! Vercelli's also need to rethink their bottomless brunch experience. I live in Newcastle and have had quite a few Bottomless brunches. This was the WORST! Don't get me wrong, the food was lovely but the bottomless drinks thing was a joke! I think Vercelli's staff need to go to places in Newcastle to see how Bottomless is done properly. One choice of drink for two hours is ridiculous !! If you choose vodka , you have to stick with it! I asked if a bottle of prosecco could be left on the table. The waitress looked disgusted at this request !! Seriously ! ? This is just what I am used to at other B Brunches I have had. At one point, my friends and I had empty glasses for about 15 mins as the waiting staff had all disappeared. £25 pounds for non alcoholic brunch seems expensive too. I would recommend Vercelli s for food but I would definitely not recommend it for a Bottomless Brunch. Such a shame. Don't promise what you can't deliver! And get rid of the music. No need!!!

We were really looking forward to this and I was very impressed. They have a great menu, friendly staff and a very stylish restaurant. My pasta dish was excellent, and I looked forward to returning. However, when we left Hubby said he had had the worst pizza in his life, the dough and topping were tasteless and there was very little tomato sauce (slightly visible at the edges but apparently none at all under the cheese topping). I'm sure this would have been resolved if he had said, and I'm sorry he didn't, because no matter what I said he would not return!

Excellent food and service tonight, as always

Good family friendly Italian style restaurant.

Food excellent as usual. My only criticism is: waitresses were constantly at a large table (a group of ten) asking if they wanted more drinks etc. Sat as a couple felt ignored that no one offered this service hence no extra drinks or desserts ordered and had to ask for the bill.

Outstanding meal last night. My pasta had huge prawns in it & plenty of them . My partner says it the best lasagna he’s ever had. Excellent service too. The staff work very hard & are very nice & friendly.

I haven’t written a review on Tripadvisor for 18 months now, probably because nothing has stood out in either a good way or a bad way. However, this evening we visited Vercelli for the Thursday Early Bird menu. £14 for 3 courses - fantastic value! Good portions and excellent quality food. Outstanding customer service from Megan. This will become a regular on the calendar.

Visited for lunch yesterday. Not the first time we have been and definitely won’t be the last. Staff are lovely, very polite and attentive. We got the lunchtime special- £14 for three courses!! It is an absolute treat! Meatball starter delicious, potato skins, pasta a hearty portion and the pizza delicious and plentiful (we took some home). If you are looking to have a great meal, look no further. Beautiful outdoor seating area for the summer. Can’t wait for the sunshine!!

First time visiting Vercelli today and cannot fault anything. The pizza was one of the best I've had from a restaurant.

Amazing food the best pizza I’ve had in a long time. Very friendly happy stuff would highly recommend if in the area A****

Bottomless brunch was chaotic, Service was poor as didn't seem like enough staff to fulfil the drinks orders. Would of been better if customers could go to bar & ask for a drink themselves when they were ready

Having just arrived in hexham after a long drive from Pompey, Italian was on my list so popped in on the off chance and was made welcome. Very good food, drink and service.

Visited with my Mum on a Wednesday Evening for happy hour. Lovely place,nice atmosphere,quite busy for a week day Evening too. Food was lovely,staff very good,polite and friendly but not too much in your face. Good value for money also 3 courses for £14.

Had a fabulous meal at Vercellis last night. 4 of us there. Starters were great especially the mussels and we had pizzas and pasta for mains. All tasty and pizza bases and toppings fresh.

Great food, fantastic pizza, best gluten free pizza ever according to my wife 😀

Booked a table while staying nearby at Slaley Hall. We received a warm welcome and were able to take advantage of the early bird offer which was 3 courses for £14. Despite the early bird menu being limited, we found plenty to tempt us. I had meatballs followed by pizza and found the food to be very tasty. The pizza was really tasty with a thin crispy base. I selected a coffee as my third course and found staff to be helpful and attentive. Overall a great family restaurant if you are in the area and after a decent Italian. Will definitely call again if in the area.

Pop in every so often for the early bird special, great value but you do need to book

Staff were lovely, we were late and they were marvellous, food brilliant, excellent value and quality. All in all highly recommended.

Lovely big resturant,great food lots to choose from.pasta dish was amazing.the pizzas looked brilliant too

Absolutely amazing!!! The food, the service and the price. I wish I lived closer I would be here every week. The homemade breadsticks are the best ever!!!! Thanks you to the staff and the whole place!!! Keep it up. 1 of the best Italians I have had and I always go to Italians. We will be back.

Total gem! The food was delicious, the service was fab, and the bill was lower than we expected. Highly recommend this palce!

Always a fantastic friendly service and atmosphere

Great food, great service. Excellent evening with friends.

Excellent service, delicious food

Lasagne a bit bland, ice-cream powdery texture,

Delicious calzone of decent proportions

I came here for a graduation celebration with my daughter. There was a 3 course menu special weekdays before 6.30 pm for £14.00. The food we had was really tasty with good sized portions. Excellent value for money too. I would definitely recommend.

Nice food, but dining area could do with some sound proofing, it's so loud.

We've twice had the 3 courses for £14 deal, which is great value. Good food. Spacious. Lovely staff. Huge outside space.

Staff were really friendly and found me a table in the bar area on a busy Saturday night. Service was attentive and my vegetarian lasagne and brownie were delicious, as was the raspberry muddle cocktail. I was too late for the earlybird deal, but even so it was reasonably priced. A nice treat on my visit to Hexham :)

A really lovely place to go and food to eat. We went for the early bird menu which was very reasonable (14.00), the choice was good and portions ample. A very enjoyable evening.

A very pleasant experience. Staff were efficient and attentive without being intrusive. The food was tasty and of good quality. Portions were a decent size too. We had the "Early Bird" menu which represents good value. If ever I am back in Hexham I would seriously consider returning.

Friendly staff , very clean and couldn't fault the food it was beautiful and reasonable priced.

Really great restaurant. Good value for money, great food, family friendly. Food came out quick. Attentive staff. Kids meals really good value. Visited whilst on holiday 2 adults and 2 children, staying locally. Liked it that much we have booked to go back later in the week. Definitely worth a visit for a meal if you are in the area.

Really impressed with this bright spacious restaurant looking into an outside eating area and trees. Staff lovely. Food really tasty and with the Early Bird deal, very reasonable. Starter, pizza or pasta and a coffee for £14. Excellent bruschetta Starter and salmon pasta. Veg lasagne looked good too. A laid back feel. Will return. Was all decorated for Halloween too

We've probably been to this restaurant at least half dozen times in past eighteen months and always enjoyed. We booked for eight people a couple days in advance, but about seven hours before we were due to eat, we had to reduce the booking from eight to six due to illness. We were told there'd be a cancellation fee of £10! It was a Wednesday evening and whilst we were there, I'd guess it was only 40% occupied. Clearly, cancelling two covers had made no difference whatsoever to their customer demand. Especially when we had given good notice. Unfortunately, their staff "paid the fine"......£10 off the tip!! The food was as good as ever, but I felt robbed!

First and last visit. The decor doesn't look like an Italian or even close. The staff looked like they where in a hurry to close.Quickest dinner ever. My mussels where ok. Dont bother better places in the area.

This place has a great vibe, relaxed, friendly yet still professional. People of all ages all having a good time with excellent food and service. Would have given five stars except for two things, spicy really does mean SPICY here and also when our main...

Excellent food and service. Great value for money. Will definitely go back next time we visit the area.

Excellent. Great food, great service. Stopped in Hexham for a meal and picked this place at random. Really glad we did.

Exceptional staff and food . Many restaurants do not don't seem to encourage Wheelchair users but the staff here went out of their way to make us feel welcome. The steps at the access were no problem the staff brought a ramp and even pushed...

Always really enjoy the pizza here and looking forward to trying other dishes. Great service and good desserts.

Overall Food, service and surroundings good and better than I expected. Will go again. Nice outdoor area if the weather good

Great place to eat. Very relaxing atmosphere. Food was great quality.

Lovely place to eat, big portions

Googled on route home from Scotland for an Italian in Hexham. We were not disappointed. Found us a table straight away. Great service and superb food all round. Will definitely return and highly recommend 👌

Went for dinner with 2 friends. Ordered 2x pizzas and a pasta dish. All was very nice and the staff were attentive. Had STP for pudding and couldn’t fault it. It was delicious! Lovely to see a small restaurant with such high standards. Well worth...

Lovely meal. Reasonably priced. Friendly efficient service.

First time in Hexam, simply passing and saw sandwich board on pavement outside- 3 courses for 14 pounds before 6.30. Don't know how they can do it for the price! but they can with bells on!. Excellent Italian fare, spaghetti bolognese to die for. Great house red. Great service.

Stumbled across Vercelli, they deserve their success, cant speak highly enough about the standard of food they serve. Spag bog’ to die for. Excellent house red. Great service. Seems you need to book though we managed to walk in. More than your average Italian!.

Great food, highly recommended.

Staff were great and managed to squeeze us in as we hadn’t booked, but would recommend booking not to miss out on great food and drinks

A birthday meal was thoroughly enjoyed. Great staff..wonderful food. Can't go wrong here!

Pleasant staff, very tasty food. Good value for money

Fantastic food, great value for money and good service.

Our favourite Italian restaurant by far. The food and service are absolutely first class. Can’t recommend this place highly enough

Called in for tea time food , even tho restaurant was empty we were offered a table in the empty bar or outside , not very good customer service , won't be back ... Went to county who found us a great table in there...

Great place for family and friends. Food is always good and atmosphere great whenever I visit.

Fantastic food and great value for money. Staff friendly and helpful. The portions are massive (probably too big to be honest) so don't order too much! Overall very nice meal and evening.

The staff was amazing. The food was delicious. I wish we had had more time to come back for a second meal while we were in town.

Service was excellent, staff helpful and polite, and the food was amazing. I had Squid to start... Cooked beautifully, served with Lime and alioli, my partner had Bruschetta, lovely fresh Tomato & Basil, with just a hint of garlic. My main was Fetuccini Gamberi. This...

Great birthday celebration meal

Really lovely food, good portions and such good value. £14 early bird menus for three courses - hard to believe in these inflationary times. Very nice atmosphere too, would highly recommend.

Popped in and had the early bird menu, main restaurant was busy so offered a booth at the bar. Food was excellent, and the staff were really attentive, would highly recommend.

Lovely food, great service and very reasonable prices. Best restaurant in Hexham ❤️

First time we have visited but won't be the last. Lovely, immaculately clean restaurant. We opted for the lunch time special. Two had the soup, two the potato skins. We all had pizzas which were huge but we all agreed best pizzas we have had...

My three guests enjoyed their food immensely. However, when I ordered steak Diane, the sauce was as runny as the water out your tap. Steak was perfectly cooked, and the sauce ruined my meal. Steak Diane sauce should be thick and creamy, I have eaten it countless times. The staff that I had interactions with were amazing, very professional, young ladies. The restaurant had a good ambience. The chef let this restaurant down.

Lovely restaurant and bar area. Food was really good. Would highly recommend. Best restaurant in Hexham !

Called in for lunch and were not disappointed! We had the set lunch which was absolutely delicious. All of our party were very happy with their choices and the waiting staff were lovely and very helpful. I would definitely recommend this restaurant and will be...

Great food and service at a reasonable price

We stayed in hexham for one night and Vercelli looked a good bet for dinner. From the minute we walked in, it was an excellent experience - the waiting staff were attentive but not intrusive, the food was very good -with some innovative dishes -...

Very good all round, food excellent. Would recommend.

Great food. Great staff. Smashing early bird menu. Will return.

We have been here quite a few times lovely place and staff are very nice always very good service we were there for my husband's birthday unfortunately he was the only only one who had bland food his meal was nice just a little tasteless so that's the only reason for 4*but we will go back as enjoy this restaurant a lot .
