The best restaurants in Bywell Northumberland North East

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.

I’ve been lucky enough to experience Flat Earth a few times and there’s always something different. Imaginative use of flavours, all ingredients home made, such a refreshing change from the usual take away offering.

Just called in for a drink during a golf holiday, great little bar friendly landlord, good service and excellent beer.

Great pub, very nice food, reasonably priced

Lovely place with some antiques as a bonus. Usually don't choose Italian food but this was definitely one of the best I've tasted.

We have been customers of Bistro en Glacé for many years, long before the current owners took over the restaurant. We visit 3/4 times year spending approximately £150 every time. The food has always been good until our most recent visit when we experienced an issue that should have dealt with in a much more professional manner. We were not upset about the fault re one of the main courses as everyone makes mistake in their own occupation, that happens, but for me you judge the true values of a business by how the handle negative circumstances and in this instance Bistro en Glacé failed miserably. Our son ordered his usual, steak with peppercorn sauce, which he’s had several times previously at this restaurant. After pouring the sauce over the meat and fries he took a mouthful of food and commented that the sauce was not right. My wife and I tasted it and it was clearly wrong, it tasted and smelt cheesy as if the cream used was off. It was truly awful. I commented to the waiter and he went to the kitchen. We naturally expected that a replacement would be provided, that would have been a normal response. Instead after several minutes the lady that we assume to be the owner came to our table and said that she, the chef and waiter had tasted the sauce and it was exactly as they make it and turned away. That was patently not true as my son had eaten the peppercorn sauce on previous occasions and it had been nice. At this stage, I was understandably disgruntled and ready to tough it out but my wife and son do not like it when disagreements occur so for that reason I very reluctantly held my tongue. My son eat the very few mouthfuls of fries and steak that were not covered with sauce. Later that evening we received an automated text message from the restaurant requesting review. It was negative, explaining why as I have in this review and invited them to respond. Had they reflected and realised they had failed in the first rule of commerce “Customer is King” and apologised we would most likely have put the experience behind us but they did not respond it just reaffirmed their only priority was monetary and not customer satisfaction. For that reason I decided to post this review to make others aware of our experience that could so easily have been avoided at minimal cost to them , their cost of a steak and a few potatoes, £10 at most for which they charge over £30. Instead they will lose over £450 of our custom annually as we shall never again set foot in the premises.

I echo the sentiment of the other reviewers about how good the Wood Oven is. Friendly staff, a nice vibe and super food and drink. And flexible and responsive ! I telephoned literally just before closing time at 8pm on a Thursday night and secured a table without the hesitation that such late bookings can often engender and was then able to walk from my B&B accommodation next door at Wormald House to enjoy a delicious pizza and a couple of well earned beers after a long day’s hike along the Hadrians Walk Path. Much appreciated 👍👏 And a shout out for Jayne and Ian at Wormald House- super friendly, marvellous accommodation and good food. What more could you want !

Delicious Sunday lunch I had the beef it melted in my mouth will be back. The roast potatoes were crispy and perfect inside 😋

What a lovely hotel. All rooms(we booked 3 rooms) were nice with different designs, good size bathroom and well equipped. Bed was comfortable. Breakfast was good with plenty choices. We were sitting inside the building and can see green field view through the window. Services was attentive.

Great atmosphere freindly staff

Sunny day. Sat outside ,view over Tyne valley breathtaking. Very busy. We had to wait for a seat. Spent time looking in Christmas shop. Well designed. Excellent sausage sandwich and coffee.

Sunday lunchtime visit with my wife. The Robin Hood delivers every time. We both had roast beef, which was tender, tasty and plentiful. Surrounded by great roast potatoes and a variety of winter vegetables. The Yorkshire pudding and gravy were exceptionally tasty. For dessert we managed somehow to fit in apple and blackberry crumble with a jug of custard. A wonderful end to the meal. The staff are always welcoming and friendly and just get on with making sure you enjoy your meal. Highly recommended and it will not disappoint.

Lovely feeling when you walk in, it seemed quiet when we got there around 6.45pm. Sat at a table looking onto the outside garden area. It took almost an hour for 3 tiny duck pancakes as a starter to arrive! Average in taste. We waited a further 10-15 minutes for our mains: Steak pie, mash & veg and a smashed burger. I hate it when I expect a pie but only get a pie crust! Mash was cold, small jug of gravy was ok. Burger was ok, but not what we were expecting, smaller and underwhelming is the best description. On a lighter note, the South African Sauvignon Blanc was delicious. Overall cost us £64 for a mediocre meal that neither of us really enjoyed.

Used to be one of the best pubs around, now infested by sheep interfering young locals who threaten others away, staff shrug and say they are regulars so can't do anything. Avoid

Paid over £6 for bacon egg and mushroom sarnie and coffee wouldn't have minded the price but there was only 3or 4 slices of mushroom in egg was snotty the bacon was cooked well but when they asked if I wanted Brown or White I assumed it would be in a bun (roll, bap) but to my surprise it was in between to slices of white soggy bread. The coffee was good to be fair. Won't be in a hurry to return.
