The best restaurants in Northumberland North East

We called in at the Rocking Horse cafe for tea and cake with our new little border collie pup. We spent an hour or so chatting with Andrew the owner and he gave us some really good advice on canine behaviour and very useful training tips. The cafe is very welcoming, food is amazing and it’s great that dogs are so welcome and even get to play with the two resident collies in the large secure garden. I would highly recommend a visit for both food and help with dog training and agility skills

Lovely food. Couldn't fault it. The kipper sandwich was lush. Fresh food cooked to order. Owner very friendly Highly recommend.

Amazing cake , sones and freak shake . All the food coming out was big potions and everyone eating looked really happy . I'll be visiting again

We read reviews before going to Alnwick and restaurant sounded fab .. sadly Restaurant doing take away at present.so didnt sit in ..however it was honestly OUTSTANDING. NEVER tasted thai food so fresh it was my 50th and quite honestly it made my day....we got a takeaway and it was a meal we will never forget .This is a message to ANYONE who lives in or near Alnwick. If you want fresh... exceptional authentic tasting thai food packed with flavour and like to spend ure meals going..nom..nom..nom....out loud...this is the place for YOU.

I was recommended the Bari Tea Brewery by a friend and was not disappointed. The range of teas on offer was vast with many interesting flavours! I had the green ginger tea with a scone which was freshly baked and was very tasty! Service was very good and all the staff very friendly.

At first glance this place looked like a bustling cafe, with fresh cakes and a warm welcome, from great suggestions and fresh food this is the place to come in Hexham! I opted for a sausage and onion toastie with fries and a choccy milkshake whilst I was doing some work! Beautiful and very tasty! All the staff had big smiles, and time for each and every customer! Claire was especially helpful, making me a beautiful milkshake, and explaining what Rising Cafe is all about! All I can say is wow! Thank you so much and keep up the amazing work! It was lovely to spend an hour somewhere that was so full of laughter and good vibes! I will be back!

Arguably the best Indian restaurant in the North East. The service is always fantastic and the food is excellent. On this occasion we had the Chicken Coconut Chilli Ceylon and Lamb Madras and both were superb. We're already looking forward to our next visit.

Great service and value and local produce in shop. 8 of us called in for a pre-walk coffee and cake/teacake. Although the place was busy, we were served swiftly and courteously. Definitely will revisit and recommend.

Me and the wife visited here for a full English breakfast , and I must say it’s one of the best I’ve had , food very fresh and hot , caramel latte best ever, and the staff very friendly . Highly recommend, free car park at the rear.

Beautiful little village, Stopped for a light lunch at the fountains cottage cafe . Staff were lovely food was excellent, so glad we stopped. 😄

A lovely location, sat outside in the sunshine with my dog, a pot of tea, cheese scone followed by a piece of carrot cake, absolutely delicious. Thank You, I can't wait to return

A lovely little find. We came to Amble on our way home and were a bit peckish and 1911 was the first spot we saw. It was nice and busy for a Wednesday morning, the staff were all absolutely lovely, so friendly. The food was delicious and great value for money. Will definitely be back when over this way

Wow, from start to finish, this meal was delicious. For such an amazing fine dining restaurant, it still felt casual and welcoming. Staff were friendly and down to earth, easy to talk to and there to answer any questions. Simply outstanding

The coffee stop absolutely went above and beyond for a 50th party that I arranged the food was exceptional and everyone off the guests said the same, more than enough food and amazing service I would rate Angela and George 100% if I could I honestly can not thank them enough for making the occasion so special.

Great place, we were sent for breakfast from the local inn, and presented with the best breakfast we’d ever been offered! Relaxed and friendly atmosphere, well used by the locals, (always a good sign) dog friendly - a real treat from beginning to end - many thanks
