Whistle Stop in County Durham - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Under new ownership, cakes are fantastic freshly baked. Cheesecake best I've tasted. Hot beef sandwiches with proper home made chips to good to describe! Been back and had all day breakfast lovely food and good value for money. Will be back and can highly recommend.

Went in their opening week. Food is absolutely gorgeous. Got the burger and chips couldn’t fault it. My son had cheesy chips(proper chips) was also beautiful. And don’t ask me about the cheesecake. It is definitely the best I have ever had. Will definitely be back.

My work mate and I come across this cafe when working in the area. We where looking forward to it as you could pick your own 8 items which was spot on. The breakfast is described as freshly cooked to order....I very much doubt that as the bacon wasn't even cooked. It was pink and the fat was still raw. The sausages I can't even describe as they where the weirdest looking colour and tasted revolting. The scrambled eggs where full of water and flooded the tray. The hash brown was burnt to a crisp. £4.80 for this breakfast you would expect high quality.

very good value for money lovely tasty dinners at reasonable prices also do a good breakfast and good variety of meals

So we fancied a nice breakfast and cane accross this cafe....it was cold inside but thought as long as food is nice it wont matter....Honestly this was the worst food experience ive had ...the breakfast was over cooked and greesy....from thr big breakfast i ate a little toast and sone crispy crispy bacon....the food was just oily and ill looking the sausages looked ill....i dont understand how they got it so wrong...they have quiches and cakes out that look amazing then they serve u this slop...please dont go there save your money.....

Una pareja encantadora joven que lleva el café. Es limpio y con una buena relación calidad-precio, sin duda volveremos allí.

Never, ever again. Apologies, but the service was less than pleasant. The food qaulity appalling. Veggies should be fresh, not tinned. Yes, truly! Tinned vegetables and the meat; wherever they purchase .... Have never eaten such dire tasteless stringy chicken, ever. Didn't know meat like this still existed. Prices may be low, but sure their trade would increase if they bought quality ingredients and learned how to peel vegs and cook. This is most definitely the worst meals we've ever eaten for years. A previous comment describes the cafe as 'charming' They must surely be confused, or a friend of the proprietor, as this is greasy spoon land, minus good service, pleasant surroundings and even edible food.

Although the price was cheep, the value still wasn't worth it. Gristly chicken, flavourless veg. Very disappointed. Sorry but it really needs improving. Better quality ingredients would really help.

Lovely Sunday roast cheap prices fresh home cooked food clean cafe and charming staff definitely be going again soon xxx

I use this charming little cafe regularly for sandwiches and breakfasts. Great food, excellent value. Handy for the musuem.
