The best restaurants in Saltwell Gateshead North East

I should have written a review a long time ago since Spice Connection is my local go-to restaurant and takeaway. Its always a pleasure to visit as the staff are so welcoming. The food is of the highest quality, always served piping hot. Takeaways are excellent but if you're nearby I'd definitely take the opportunity to have a meal in the restaurant.

Stopped for a cup of tea after quite a long walk from Kells lane in low fell. Choices of tea, coffee and bites to eat are very good. I opted for a cup of breakfast tea and was perusing the choices until I was told that the sausage rolls has just come out of the oven. Sold! Mine was with Black pudding. Delicious. Nice outdoor seating area which was OK on a sunny autumn day overlooking the park. Highly recommend

We stayed here while we were attending a wedding a few miles away. We received the warmest welcome on our arrival, the man checking us in was lovely and made us feel welcome, and interacted with our 2 young children as well. Our room was beautifully decorated, clean and spacious. The beds were comfortable and we all had 2 good nights sleep. We had breakfast on each morning of our stay, the team again were very attentive and welcoming. They lose a star on my rating though as the hash brown on both mornings was so unbelievably salty there were clumps of salt residue on my plate; and the scrambled eggs had an unusual unpleasant taste that I was unable to eat it. The continental breakfast was good though. All in all a lovely visit.

Absolutely spot on, couldn’t fault it. It’s busy so they’re clearly doing something right. Lush honest fresh food

Visited the Nine Pins this week sadly for the wake of a treasured friend. The buffet was excellent - there was a great selection and food was very fresh and tasty. The bar staff were friendly and service great as was the Camden Helles pale ale. Many thanks x

Thank you for the buffet yesterday, everything was excellent.x

always amazing service and food

Good food and quick delivery and piping hot 👌

Came half hr after they said! 1 word answers on the phone food was cold when arrived

La comida estuvo genial todo muy rico, pero lo mejor fue como nos atendieron , merece la pena pasar una velada romantica

Food is fresh and tasty but delivery is letting this place down sort your delivery service out please

Waited 2 hrs for delivery tonight, fair enough it’s bank holiday, but yet again my order is wrong, 2nd time this year, rang up and nicely advised, whole mouthful of abuse, and hung up, will not be ordering from here again, don’t usually leave reviews but don’t waste your money folks!!

the fish was perfect but the chips were cold

Food is excellent, swift delivery, won't go anywhere else

Absolutely brilliant! Fish beautiful and fresh, the chips really perfect.
