The best restaurants in Blaydon Gateshead North East

Had a lovely afternoon here. The great barmaid whom I didn’t catch her name was very friendly and warm and poured a great pint. Excellent beer here. She also lent me a phone charger and I am very grateful. Great beer, great service and lovely locals and atmosphere. Great pub

This is a lovely restaurant to visit and was very handy for us as we were staying at the Holiday inn. Food was reasonably priced and portions were big. We ate two nights that we stayed and were not disappointed. Lovely food, good atmosphere and staff were great. This is a must if in the area. Usually in places like this with hotels nearby you are stuck with the usual chain restaurants - Brewers fayre etc… so we were pleasantly surprised!!

Fuimos para el almuerzo del domingo y conseguimos un montón de todo y la carne estaba tan sabrosa y derretida en la boca. La camarera le preguntó a mi madre si le gustaría un plato pequeño ya que los almuerzos normales son grandes, mi madre tenía el plato pequeño y no pudo terminarlo todo. Bueno, definitivamente volveremos.

Birthday lunch for 8. Meal excellent choices, and service good.

Room smelled strongly of swimming pool type aroma was quite awful Hole in kettle Hairdryer didn't work

Worst diner ever. Surprised it’s open given the service we experienced at the time was anything to go by. So unlike the theme of which we received in USA that’s it’s hard to believe it is the same chain. Staff serving us lacked the appetite for helpfulness.

DONT EVEN BOTHER- used to go here quite regularly as a family now they don’t even take walk ins- RUBBISH- what a shame it wasn’t even busy

Handy for the metro centre - but still requires a car to get there. The hotel is starting to show its age, the rooms lack usb sockets.

Really sad as I’ve never had problems before, but 1hr45mins for delivery was too much. When it came we were missing a portion of rice, chicken was dry as sticks and everything was cold. So disappointing ☹️

We have been to Zizzi’s from Plymouth to Glasgow, the food is consistently great. The restaurants have a similar atmosphere and prices are usually the same. The service on this occasion was of a lower standard than usual set in the Zizzi’s chain. The mannerism’s of the waiting staff came across as rude and abrupt. Further to this we did not recieve our food at the same time. IMPORTANTLY - the staff did take the food which arrived late off the bill. We are huge Zizzi’s eaters so will be back, just slightly disappointed with this visit.

The service is terrible! When we arrived, we waited in a queue to be seated as they needed to see if there were enough tables available, even though half of the restaurant was empty. We were placed at an extremely small table in a tight space between two large families, despite the fact that every table was available on the other side of the restaurant. There was minimal room between us and the other families, which meant we kept accidentally nudging each other and we kept accidentally sitting and stepping on each other's coats and bags as we were struggling to move. There were plenty of unoccupied tables so it was quite strange that we needed to wait to get a seat and ended up in an extremely cramped space. I don’t know why they weren't seating anyone on the other side of the restaurant but it was probably because the staff didn’t want to serve more people and didn’t want to clean more tables! The service after we were given a table was also terrible. We were handed the menu and quickly decided what we wanted to order. However, we waited for over 40 minutes without anyone coming to take our drink or food orders. We had attempted to find a server, but there was no one available around our table. Since we were short on time, we ultimately had to leave without eating or even getting a drink. As we were leaving, the man at the door asked if we had enjoyed our meal, and we explained that we had been waiting for over 40 minutes and hadn't even had our drink orders taken. He apologized, but it didn't look like he acknowledged what we said. I would definitely not recommend anyone to visit unless you have around 4 hours to waste.

Kala nos sirvió y el servicio al cliente fue absolutamente increíble muy hablador y sonriente! La comida era deliciosa y las bebidas eran buenas también.

My wife loves the JD chicken from here, great experience today thanks to our server Kala she was really friendly and attentive filling our drinks and serving with a smile! Portion sizes big too!

Good portion size chips, old school but you pay modern prices for it, wrapped in paper, best chips around

Went on a Tuesday night at 7.30 for a family members birthday. There were 8 of us and table had been booked. We were seated quickly however there was quite a wait for drinks order to be taken and the older waiter was very abrupt, verging on rude. Food when it came was fairly bland and nothing to write home about. The place closes at 9 but staff began turning everything off at 8.40 meaning our whole party felt very uncomfortable. Will not be going again
