The best restaurants in North East

Fully vegan menu. Delicious food. Friendly service. They were very understanding of someone with extra dietary requirements and they were happy to (having been asked and given notice) provide a special meal for me whilst my partner could choose from the menu. Both our meals were delicious. Would definitely go there again if we are in the area.

A great addition to the Chillingham Road - very good variety of food, and good coffee. Well worth a visit for fresh and unusual food, a change from the usual, and you can tell the quality by the number of people waiting outside for their orders!

Great portion size, tasty fish, all been said already by other reviewers. What I found especially good was the batter on the fish, crispy and thin, not greasy, and the most magical of all, is that the fish goes all the way to end of the batter shell! They’ve go the batter nailed down! Bravo, please continue doing your thing and do not stop

Doing both occupational physical and was Doug speech therapy all there are knowledgeable and down to earth they’re wonderful people and therapists would recommend to anybody

Wolfmann’s is a pretty unique place in South Shields. Great healthy food, lovely surroundings and very nice staff. Our favourites are the Korean Fried Chicken and anything from the sea! There’s a distinctly Asian vibe with lots of the food but they also do great breakfasts, burgers and a fantastic Sunday lunch. There is also a lovely selection of cakes in the cabinet if you fancy something sweet. We need to make sure that good quality neighbourhood eateries like this stay the distance, so if you are looking for somewhere in South Shields that won’t disappoint, definitely try Wolfmann’s!

Popped in for a drink after a dog walk (dogs very welcome here) with my husband and daughter. My daughter had a gorgeous and generous milkshake while my husband and I had coffee and tea. The owners are lovely and the cafe was a great, welcoming space with a fun mini ice cream van for the little ones. Our dog was offered a treat (and gladly accepted!) and there was fresh water for him too. We even bought a gift from the lovely selection of gifts and homewards on offer. We didn’t eat but the food looked great and we’ll definitely be back!

Had fabulous food with friends! Staff very welcoming & all of our meals were excellent. We were deciding what we might have on our next visit 😊

Me encanta la comida y el ambiente muy relajado y agradable y la comida almeja es lo mejor de este lado de Cape Cod.

You have to try afternoon tea here! Likely need to book in advance, we were given a great choice of sandwiches when we booked. On the day, we were seated upstairs right by the window looking over the sea, a fabulous view even on a grey winter afternoon. The food was delicious, more than we could eat though we gave it a good go. Good mix of savoury and sweet, some other afternoon teas elsewhere have too much sweet stuff. Suzanne, the owner, and the staff are so welcoming and helpful, and the cost was so reasonable. I highly recommend this place.

We have been visiting Newbiggin for many years and love the quirkiness of it. The Artisan Tea Rooms is always our go-to place for breakfast when we are there. All the food is home-made, of good quality and is produced singlehandedly by the owner and everyone is happy to wait. A little oasis in Newbiggin!

Lovely family run business. Food was made on the premises and was great. The sausage rolls and cakes are amazing, we will definatly be going again. Friendly efficient staff and beautiful little tea room.

Visited today for the first time, what a lovely piece of chocolate cake and a delicious bowl of soup, made very welcome, will certainly be back when next in the area

Really love this little van. Have been getting pizza from them for a couple of years. We particularly love the summer when they are at Seaton Carew and we call in and get a pizza to take home. Made fresh. The dough and ingredients are all fresh and taste amazing.

The decor is lovely, the staff are friendly and the meal was excellent. I highly recommend your afternoon teas here. Will definitely be coming back

Beautiful lunch spot! I’ve heard so much about the food here so decided to give it a try and I’m so glad I did. I will be back as a regular definitely. I had the pesto and mozzarella pizza and the pistachio cake and wow it was amazing! The prices are so affordable too, a great find.
