Wyndenwell in Northumberland

The best ice cream in Northumberland can be found at this place. We had two ice creams - blue raspberry, strawberry, pistachio and walnut & maple. The blue raspberry wasn't to my taste, but the other three were nothing short of spectacular! We've previously had banana, coconut, marzipan and other flavours, and they've all be 5*.

We popped into here after walking up from Seahouses. It was dog friendly so we popped in for some drinks. Staff were pleasant and the coffees were nice. There was a good little selection of cakes and pies that looked amazing. Really wanted to try some, but was equally trying to watch the waistline. Will definitely try the lamb pie if i'm there again though.

Amazing ice cream. The best we have tasted. Ferrero rocher is the one to try. Great cones too. Thank you! Helpful friendly staff.

This is a really busy place, standing in the queue that deals with takeout and sit in orders . Well worth the wait . They have a great lunch menu and once seated the service is very good. Portions are more than adequate so make sure that the sea air has given you a good appetite. Close to the castle and a playground it is well placed for families. Only one WC so you can find yourself in another queue.

Wyndenwells is a quirky cafe with a good choice of snacks and delicious ice creams. The staff are friendly and chatty. The coffee was great, likewise my pork pie which was awesome. The grandkids liked the retro feel and the music posters. A pleasant way to recharge when visiting Bamburgh.

Lovely and friendly cafe Delicious ice cream lots of choices of flavours Lots of seating inside Few tables inside Gets busy in the sunshine

Lovely little place. Called after a beach walk from Seahouses and wanted a simple lunch. Family of four and was allowed to take our dog in whilst we ate sandwiches and ice cream. We got seats inside as was sunny so most people wanted to be out but it is very small. Staff were courteous and kept very busy as constant queues out the door. Cost £40 for four sandwiches, ice creams and drinks - but then we are in prime Bamburgh space ! Was lovely though and just what we wanted. Ice cream was amazing !! Would go back.

Delicious ice cream! Not much more to be said but the choice of ice creams and sorbets was great, was particularly impressed that when we asked for sorbet the friendly staff checked if was for an allergy reason. The ice-cream was delicious and really good value for money. Would highly recommend.

Great ice cream, lovely flavours to choose from and definitely worth a visit. The reason for the low rated review is that it was a shame about one member of staff with short grey hair who was extremely rude to a senior member of our party who she made it very clear was in her way whilst looking at the flavours of ice cream to choose. I suggest if they want to make people queue in the doorway with a barrier in the middle that the staff are a bit more polite to their paying customers or change the layout.

Delicious ice cream! They have a variety of flavours. The staff were friendly. Long queues but it moved pretty quickly.

We've stopped here a few times while walking around Bamburgh and always enjoyed their products. This visit I had a latte which was very good. And also had a cranberry and cinnamon cookie dough square which was really really good! Lovely cinnamon flavour with lots of pieces of cranberry and had a really good texture (almost more like flapjack then cookie dough) Will definitely come back again next time we're in the area!

Lovely, cosy cafe with a warm welcome and lovely coffee and cake. Just what was needed on a wet Saturday afternoon.

This place is a gem for ice cream in Bamburgh. In fact, I believe it’s the only real ice cream shop in Bamburgh. However, it definitely doesn’t disappoint. It’s really easy to access and is a cosy small place. Never tried alternative food/drink other than ice cream. Queue can get big but only as a result of the small inside so don’t be put off. Massive variety of flavours, many of which are way above standard and very delicious. My personal favourites include the white chocolate flake and the Creme Egg I had last year (I’m guessing some flavours change regularly). Scoops are massive and very good value - with a wide range of cones and tubs available. A must when visiting Bamburgh.

A nice coffee shop with a few extra sandwiches, snacks and ice creams. Coffee, hot chocolates and soft drinks all good quality. 1 loo, so when it’s busy there becomes a long line quickly.

Coffee always nice here! I’ve creams also really good! Nice and comfortable atmosphere and pleasant staff

Although the cafe was still serving “takeouts” to customers, it had just closed the toilets and when I asked if I could take my adult son with autism and diabetes to use them, the woman behind the counter refused on the grounds they had just been cleaned. It might be part of their “regulations” but kindness costs nothing compared to the extortionate price they charged for three polystyrene cups of tea and a couple of small ice creams and cakes. The star I have allocated goes to the young waiter who fell over himself to be polite but we won’t be going back there again.

We chose this spot for lunch whilst visiting Bamburgh, however, I would not recommend it for lunch based on our experience. I first ordered a coronation chicken sandwich but was advised there was not any left. I then changed to a tuna mayonnaise sandwich and paid extra for the salad. Unfortunately it was not a sandwich but a rather dry bap with a quite tasteless filling and very minimal salad, despite paying extra for it. My husband had a falafel wrap with mango chutney. However, he said it was very dry and quite difficult to eat. The redeeming feature of Wyndenwell however was the ice cream. I took a two scoop away with me as we left and it was delicious! So five stars for ice cream and 2 stars for lunch. Sorry for negative feedback.

Tea £1.60. Fruit scone £2. Delicious. This is Bamburgh! What more can I say except go and see for yourself.

Superb coffee and great sausage rolls. Love coming here when in Bamburgh and would highly recommend. Very friendly

Called in while visiting Bamburgh over the weekend for an ice cream on a hot afternoon. Vast array of flavours on offer and the young guy serving was very polite and chatty. The ice-cream was a little soft however but delicious flavour. Definitely call again.

Very rude older lady told us off first for sitting down when they were stopping serving indoors (as though we should know, we live 100s of miles away so not aware of this cafes serving times), but begrudgingly said we could buy drinks "if we were quick drinking them". We later took our drinks outside as it was hot inside and an outside table became free, and she marched outside after us to tell us in front of our children and other customers we were not allowed to take our cups outside. Her manner was unnecessarily rude and offensive, and we were quite upset. Another customer looked quite shocked by her outburst. Not a good advert for Bamburgh I'm afraid.

Leuk klein restaurantje aanrader voor een bakkie koffie met een heerlijk koekje. Het restaurant zit in de straat naar het kasteel.

Popped in for drinks and ice cream sat outside had a lovely chat with the owner . Excellent service, very clean , great choice of food . Friendly staff .

Staff very rude, my order was incorrect and I informed them. They said I had definitely ordered the coffee because that is what they had written down. The man then proceeded to abruptly place my coffee (which was not my order) on the table, turned his back and walked away. I would definitely NOT recommended this place!

This place is let down badly by very rude staff. One girl in particular, visibly rolled her eyes and sighed when I asked if I could have extra milk in my coffee. She went to grab the cup from our table outside, and in doing so, she collided with my hand and the hot coffee spilled out of the cup and dropped onto our dog who was sitting at our feet. Not even an apology or a check to see if our dog was okay, just a nasty look thrown in our direction as she walked away with the cup. Shocking! I see quite a few reviews of the same nature here so maybe a review of their staff would be an idea. I'll not be back for sure, there are plenty of other, friendlier places to take a break.

Een prima en net koffie café onder de rook van het kasteel. Goeie tussenstop voor een lekkere bak koffie of cappuccino met wat lekkers. Vriendelijke bediening en zeker niet te duur. De moeite waard voor een rustmoment.

Went for morning drink and cake. Friendly welcome and service by a young man. Lovely selection of cakes, pastries and ice creams at reasonable prices. Free WiFi. Worth returning to.

When we arrived I asked if we could bring our dog friendly and a young man said “just to well behaved dogs ad you can only sit at the front section of the coffee shop. After that warm welcome we found a seat and I...

Friendly staff and a nice atmosphere. We have had coffee, cakes and Ice cream from here and they have all been lovely. The pecan pie slice is v good along with any of the brownies which are all super gooey Definitely will visit again

Had a very nice latte and a Snickers pretzel brownie! Nice service and lovely to sit outside on the seats and watch people walking past. Will definitely be back.

Visited many times when in Bamburgh. Staff very friendly and helpful. Nothing is a trouble. Lovely home made cakes. Coffee really nice, good value.

This is the unpretentious cafe in Bamburgh which serves excellent fare in lovely attractive surroundings without ripping you off. Our food was delicious and the staff friendly couldn’t fault it.

Quite busy but didn't have to wait too long and got a table inside. Great range of ice creams, enjoyed the horlicks and malteaser.

Great cafe for coffee first thing in the morning. Great choice of cakes. Gets very busy on a sunny weekend as they sell an enormous choice of icecreams. Not alot of indoor seating & a few outside on the pavement....sadly where the queues form. Good...

Lovely friendly staff. Food came out quickly, great coffee. Very laid back vibe. Great spot for people watching sat outside.

We initially tried to get into The Copper Kettle a little further along the street but they wouldn’t let us in as we had our dog with us. Good result at the end of the day as the Wyndenwell Cafe was excellent Staff were really...

Couldn’t get in at other coffee shops. Tried this one and the scone was delicious. Filled with fruit and cherries.

Managed to secure a table in the front of the cafe which seemed to be missed by the throngs of people trying to get a table.Very nice place.

We visited Saturday for tea and cakes My wife asked for a different tea bag as she did not like the storm tea bags given The guy replied we don’t have any more So I went to my car to get the tetley bags When...

Lovely food and coffee. Decorative style with a nice ambience, staff were friendly. However tables weren’t cleaned down after others had left, would have thought at least a clean.

Lovely little cafe! Delicious ice cream and so reasonably priced. Staff were very friendly also, would recommend!

Double Ginger Ice cream. I don't think any ice-cream in the world of ice-creams is ever going to beat this. I feel like its ruined my expectations of ice creams! And it wasn't a bad price either!

We stopped off here with the intention of grabbing a quick coffee before heading home but when I saw they had vegan brownies on offer I had to try one! The chocolate orange brownie was quite possibly the best brownie I've ever had. My partner...

Fantastic ice cream selection with great service at a reasonable price. Best ice cream in the village of Bamburgh. When we return we shall visit again

Also wondered why there wasn’t many more negative reviews, my review was contested and removed for absolutely no reason. Awful service, rude staff. The reply to my review was extremely unprofessional. Awful place! The bad apple of bamburgh 100%

I wondered why there weren’t many more terrible reviews for this aweful establishment and now I know why, because they are all contested and removed. Ice cream made me sick and attitude of staff was even worse. Such a shame because bamburgh is lovely, this...

We popped in for ice cream after visiting St Aidens church and the choice of flavours was fantastic. We had liquorice and blackcuurent and honeycombe flavours so tasty. Prices were good too

Really nice coffee and delicious scones, busy for takeaway but found a table indoors. Lovely guys working here, highly recommended.

Would not recommend this place as the staff are rude and not friendly. We attended on Wednesday and questioned about not wearing a mask. I am exempt which I advised the young man. He asked to see my ID card which is not required by...

We just popped in for ice creams. There was a nice range of locally produced ices to choose from. Those we selected were thoroughly enjoyed

Really don’t recommend this place, staff are so rude, not welcoming at all. Such a shame because everywhere else in bamburgh is lovely and open to all customers

We enjoyed some takeaway treats suitable for people following a vegan way of life and anyone who likes real, nutritious and great tasting food. The wraps, Moroccan kofta & red pepper houmous and sweet potato pakora & red pepper houmous really hit the spot and...

Called in for a quick brunch and coffee. This was a real treat, having been traveling around all week it was the best coffee and th ewrap was ace

Loved the ice-cream here, really good choice. Visited regularly, excellent choice of food, including vegan, coffee. Staff are so friendly, and its good value. Join the queue, its worth it.

Lovely friendly welcome from two hardworking lads who were deservedly busy. Nice range of prepared sandwiches, pies and wraps as well as delicious cakes and fabulous ice cream. We popped in for lunch and came back for afternoon drink and ice creams. Very tasty pastrami...

Friendly staff, great coffee and delicious cakes (& ice-cream), we visited several times! Recommend a visit.

There was a good selection of reasonable quality food and drinks . We were able to get a table outside

Called here just to try the ice cream and was worth trying I had the marzipan and cinder toffee ice cream both we’re very tasty

We always call when we're in Bamburgh for a Beckleberry's ice cream. There's a wide choice of flavours and they're all delicious. The cafe is well worth a visit for tasty food and coffee too.

Whilst on my trip to Bamburgh this June I found this cafe on my walk down to the beach, hunting vegan food for my picnic. I was surprised at the amount of Vegan food on the menu, everything sounded delicious! Unfortunately as it was lunch...

Wyndenwell offers takeaway drinks and snacks using compostable and recyclable containers. Delicious icecream too. And picnic tables and benches to sit outside

Beautiful little cafe with a range of delicious food! As a vegetarian who avoids dairy- I was delighted at the range of vegan options on offer! Pup friendly inside too so our little bichons were allowed to come enjoy the atmosphere with us! Really friendly...

We took a trip to the coast from staying near Kielder Water. Having walked from Seahouses to Bamburgh, we were in need of some refreshment. On all our visits to this area we have always stopped at Wyndenwell, never disappoints on friendliness, service and the lovely coffee. Keep up the great work.

The Beckleberrys ice cream is delicious and there is a huge variety of flavours to choose from. We visited nearly every day during our week in Northumberland.

We’ve gone two days in a row to order ice creams, and millionaire shortbread - each were lovely - my son raved about the chocolate orange ice cream!!

Nice music, friendly staff. Good from a Covid perspective. Excellent coffee and cakes. Pork pies good too!

We love this cafe! Best flat white in Bamburgh! Nice cakes and lovely staff. We come here every day after we have been on the super beach.

Lovely coffee and cake selection with great icecream choices too! Good friendly service. Would go again!

Just popped in for a coffee n tea. Wonderful service. Comfortable seats. Delicious drinks plus it’s very very reasonably priced. Recommended

A lucky find, wandered in delicious millionaires shortbread and scones, good covid care, cheerful staff

After a great walk along the beach, we called in at Wyndenwell for a ice cream and a can of pop. I had the Rocky Road ice cream and it were great . We sat outside to eat it. But it were windy, nearly blew it away. But it was still great.

We only stopped in here for food on the way out of Bamburgh but the white chocolate & raspberry muffin was so nice, we wanted more!! Was only let down by the softness of the pastel de nata .... it's meant to be crispy filo and it was soft and chewy.

We nipped into Wyndenwell whilst passing for a latte and a sit down. The guys serving are doing a brilliant job due to the new covid restrictions by limiting customers in the store at one time. Especially given the amount of people that seem to struggle with this.The latte was fantastic and we settled on a scone which again, was delicious.We also witnessed an epic 'Karen' battle which was handled wonderfully by staff.#alwayswatching

What a charming, pleasant and nice experience to stop here for a light lunch. The two guys serving were a delight and polite. Food was good and very reasonably priced for such a popular destination and some great home cooked choices.I have put it as cheap eats as the food was reasonably priced not that the food was cheap in terms of quality or quantity.

We visited on a warm Tuesday afternoon in September after walking from Seahouses. As we got more than a little warmed up from the walk an ice cream was in order!I had salted caramel and vanilla and my wife had chocolate orange and lemon meringue. All of the flavours were exceptional, the ice cream was very smooth and creamy and definitely a step up from that of any of the major ice cream brands.Service was swift despite the understandable queue and covid19 arrangements were in place and being followed.We took our ice creams outside and enjoyed them in the sunshine and they really were the tonic needed before setting off on the walk back to Seahouses.

After a long walk on the beach we saw this place had a few table outside so thought we'd have a look.I thought I wanted a coffee but after seeing the massive selection of ice cream flavours I had to have one!I got the Eton mess ice cream and it was really really good. Lovely flavour and texture and was the creamiest ice cream I've had.My wife got the Rocky road ice cream which was also really creamy and tasty.The one way queue was well organised and clear (with a blackboard outside with their rules on) and the staff were really polite.Will definitely come back for more ice cream next time I'm in Bamburgh!

Where do you start? firstly I'm frankly shocked at 'Andrea T' s review of 'The Wyndenwell & would strongly recommend Trip Advisor to withdraw such a petty,spiteful piece of slander (you only have to check her other reviews to see there's an agenda going on). Anyway back to The Wyndenwell, brilliant friendly service, beautiful shop/cafe and if you sit outside one of the finest views ever. Beckleberries icecream is amazing offering loads of unique flavours & the cakes to die for. When I was there the staff were run off their feet with the amount of customers queuing for icecream, it was a hot day too but they were friendly, humerous & made everyone welcome. Brilliant

I arrived at the cafe at 8.29am, cafe wasn’t open, I stood outside waiting as I only wanted a latte to takeaway. The owner came to the door asking what I wanted, he told me he wasn’t open as he had things to do! He proceeded to walk past me putting tables and chairs out, hanging signs up, blackboards etc, there was also another person there who wasn’t capable of working the coffee machine as I was told! This man is rude and awful, I’m not a tourist, I live in bamburgh every weekend, in fact I’m in the cafe often for a takeaway latte, whatever happened to customer care, we don’t have it anymore! THIS CAFE OPENS AT 9AM

Lucky enough to have Wyndenwell over road from our holiday home, so popped over every day for our regular takeaway caffeine intake. Whole family loved their coffee (supplied by Ouseburn Coffee), particularly recommend latte and cortado.

We stumbled upon this cafe and it ticked every box. The cup of tea was the best I'd had on our trip to Northumberland and there were many tempting cakes to choose from. The decor had a modern vibe and the music was great. One thing I need to mention is that the toilet was a decent size with baby changing unit. I would love to return to have lunch. Next time!

Brilliant cafe, great service- professional and friendly- very good value for top notch food; a real find and would definitely recommend and /or visit again.

Had to wait a while for them due to COVID-19 restrictions but definitely worth it. Nice strip of grass to sit outside and people watch whilst you eat them.

Really well prepared for Covid and social distancing, but still making it a good experience to buy coffee and ice cream - we’ll done. Other place in Bamburgh like the Copper Kettle should visit you and find out how to adhere to social distancing properly.

Have visited this ice cream shop on many occasions during our holidays to Bamburgh over the last five years. It’s always a treat to look forward to after a long walk on the beach.The staff are always polite and helpful.One small thing that could make our visits there much better would be vegan ice cream. Even if they only do one flavour then my vegan daughter wouldn’t feel left out.They do gluten free but not dairy free. I find this strange as there are many vegans and many people with dairy allergies. I usually have the dairy free options at home so I’m pretty sure there are a lot of people would really appreciate a dairy free option. They do two flavours of sorbet but it’s not the same as having an ice cream.Apart from that one thing which is easily remedied, lovely little cafe/ice cream shop.

Takeaway only due to COVID, had toastie sandwich and coffee both were lovely, as were the staff. Ate on a bench outside on the grass with a lovely view of Bamburgh castle in the sunshine, lovely way to pass an hour

Excellent place to stop off and very reasonable prices. Great service and atmosphere with some nice extras to browse through. Great pictures and loved the tiles! 🙂

Called in many times for coffee and their mint choc chip ice cream, fantastic, served by Noel and Cameron who are always welcoming despite it being extremely busy.

Excellent coffee, service, cake, pies and good prices highly recommended in fact for the quality offered I would have happily paid more

After a couple of hours walking the coastal routes we stopped by for coffee and scones. Of all the places on the mains street, Wyndenwell looked like what we were after. I ordered an Americano and a Latte, 2 fruit scones with butter and one jam. We got 2 lattes and 2 jams. When I queried I was told that I had been charged for 2 lattes . Doesn’t mean I ordered 2 lattes. Like the staff member said - they usually drink it anyway! That aside, the coffee was really nice and the scones huge and tasty. At £8.60 I found it reasonable for what we had. Quirky surroundings but the customer is obviously not always right!!

We visited here 3 times over the course of a week. The ice creams and scones are beautiful. There is a large choice of ice cream flavours. I loved the chocolate orange one! On the Saturday of the August bank holiday the queue went to the back of the shop but it moved really quickly and the staff were still pleasant even though it looked like they’d had a busy dayIt’s a must if you’re stopping off in Bamburgh
