The best restaurants in Rothbury Northumberland North East

This pub is fantastic! The location is great to explore the Northumberland National Park. The food is well considered with a "rapid" lunch menu, and a full menu with specials. Obviously made from scratch with care. Flavours are exceptional showing great attention to detail. Cosy log burning stove in bar. Friendly service. We only popped in for lunch on a bike ride on a Monday in November, but we'll be coming back as soon as possible to enjoy everything properly with an overnight stay!!

Just like when i was a young lad, fish and chip van stopping here and there serving great food, was told by a lady in the butchers in Rothbury to look on the website and then you know where he will be, did not let us down, lovely fresh fish.

Really tasty Italian food, friendly attentive staff, cozy interior albeit with rather dated decor, very reasonable prices. Recommended.

We were passing through Rothbury with friends, when hunger struck the kids. We were unfamiliar to the area and so just tried a couple of places nearest to where we’d parked - but seemed quite reluctant to accommodate, perhaps fatigued by the space between Christmas and new year. Cue Bewicks - we were warmly welcomed by a really lovely guy, who accommodated our party of four adults and four kids. We had coffees/juices and scones - although the menu looks really varied, with some wonderful sounding breakfasts and brunches. Coffee was very nice, cheese scones were amazing and the onion relish that accompanies… well, I really regret leaving without either a jar or the recipe. Well worth a visit.

Another fantastic lunch!! Good service, excellent food and good value. Friendly staff and fabulous views the carvery was great, fish's and chips brilliant and a good choice of beers and wines.

Hi We visited for Sunday lunch 4 adults and 1 child...wow wow wow food is amazing and staff are very friendly cannot help you enough....would highly recommend this pub for a meal and a drink...we will be definitely be back thank you also the staff...

A Christmas treat! A very friendly, comfortable dinning room with fantastic views. Delicious food, good sized portions, well presented. Must try the Christmas menu, seafood cocktail or haggis bon bons for starter and of course delicious turkey. Although all the other options looked delicious too. Great selection of deserts to follow. A real gem, cant wait to try the Sunday lunch venue in the new year.

This has got to be one of the worst experiences of going away for a mini break...originally booked for my partner's birthday in January. We turned up for check in time and the whole place was closed, absolutely no sign of life. I rang the host to see what was happening and apparently the person who should have been there had broken down, but they shouldn't be too long. Could we let ourselves in, which we did with their instructions trying to find our way through a very dark pub to the room we booked. On the first impression the room was amazing, gorgeously set. However, I had asked for chocolate covered strawberries as a surprise for my partner, which there were none to be found. About an hour later there was still no sign of anyone arriving and we were alone in this pub/hotel with nothing to do. We had hoped to eat and drink at the pub on it opening. I rang the host again and it was still unclear when someone was coming to open up everything. In Elsdon there is very little around so there wasn't even a chance we could pop somewhere else. As the evening went on we were no closer to finding out when we'd have someone there to speak to so I said to the host we were driving home. I was devastated we'd been sat around waiting on my partner's birthday, which was supposed to be a lovely little trip away. The host did very kindly provide me with a refund, for that I am grateful and said we could stay another night some time through the year to make up for it. This leads me into the next major disappointment with this place.......we got a night booked in for the first weekend in November. which the host confirmed over text message. I tried to message the night before to double check everything was ok for us coming, none of my messages would send so I rang the pub to check and what do I find out but the room we supposedly were booked into was already booked out to someone else. It's a good job I rang to check as this would have been another wasted journey with a hugely disappointing experience. I spoke to a lovely lady at the pub explained the situation and I was told she would try to speak to the host and get her to ring me back. However, I have never heard back from the host, none of my messages continued to go through to her. I am bitterly disappointed with this whole experience as I have been let down twice with little thought or consideration. I would never recommend this place to anyone.

Lovely tea shop with indoor and outdoor seating so dog friendly. Great place gor a break after a long walk.

I'm writing this as there aren't many reviews food is always excellent run by geordie ratcliffe as this was his late wife's cafe for years he runs the cafe as Jeanette would i may be a friend but he serves excellent food keep up the good work geordie see you tomorrow morning around 9.30a.m

Lovely little friendly cafe. Must stop here for Gibbet cake. Fabulous! Nice country area to walk around.

Beautiful site with very knowledgeable staff / volunteers on site giving talks. Listened to a talk while waiting to enter the house.

Been closed for about a month now, Google and Facebook pages need to be updated.

Went for lunch after a walk up the crags. Had Cod and chips. Really fresh and tasty. Staff member who served us was friendly and helpful.

Lovey cosy warm room. Loved how high the bed was and very comfortable. The bathroom was very modern but had a very strong smell of ammonia that made my eyes water and gave me a bad head. Am guessing it was what was used to clean it but the smell never left. The breakfast was lovely too . Cooked fresh to order. I loved the fact that dogs can stay to I will remember that for future reference. The bar had a lovely vibe with local folk .
