The best restaurants in Rothbury Northumberland North East

They hosted a group dinner for approximately 40 people that they couldn't manage at all. The pizza was older than Lord Armstrong himself. I don't think the 'stew' can actually be defined as stew, just beef and mushrooms with gravy. Half of us finished our mains before the other half were served, and the restaurant obviously tried to serve us all at once. The service was just extremely slow. They also lost the main one of our group had ordered. One person ordered a gluten free cheesecake and the restaurant didn't actually have it. Half the times we went to the bar for drinks it was unattended.

We had an Indian and sat in cafe. The food was delicious and freshly cooked. Staff members courteous and friendly. The cafe is slightly dated but it didn’t deter from a lovely meal. When next in Rothbury we will definitely go again.

Would not order again chips over cooked about 3 times food was horrible and water coming from food had some Indian in my time but this was the worst

Popped In for what we Expected to be a coffee befitting a “Deli” Can safely say it was the worst coffee we have had They even got our cake order wrong Mentioned it at the till and their response was “oh”

The premises had been refurbished since out last visit in August 2018 - to the better. Very good food and friendly and competent service.

We were recommended this restaurant by a Rothbury resident so were looking forward to trying it. We arrived a few minutes after our reservation time of 7.00pm and ordered our two course meal (starter and main) for £17.00 at approx 7.15. At the time of our arrival there were two tables who had finished their meal and another three empty tables. After approx 30 minutes we were still waiting for our starter whilst a table who had arrived after us had received their main meal. I mentioned this to the waiting staff and was told it was busy with people turning up without reservations. Ten minutes later two tables who turned up after us got their starters then ours arrived! 45 minutes after ordering! I mentioned this to the waiting staff and again was told the kitchen was busy. I said the kitchen obviously have a problem and need to prioritise their orders. When we finally got our main meal, approx 1 hour after ordering, my extra side dish of vegetables didn’t arrive. The waiting staff came to check if everything was ok and I told her the vegetables were missing but as I was nearly through my meal I didn’t want them. I wish I could say the meal was worth the wait but unfortunately not. It was ok pub grub. Once the bill arrived we were billed for full price food and not the meal deal we had ordered. We pointed this out to the waiting staff who apologised. The waiting staff were polite and apologetic but there is obviously an issue with the kitchen.

Amazing Sunday dinner, served so quickly by wonderfully friendly staff - the beef was beautifully tender and the vegetables were well seasoned. The place was full of happy customers!

We was celebrating a birthday in a group of 7 women. The place was beautiful, clean, spacious and well cared for. We had an amazing party in the massive kitchen. The living room is huge and stunning. The bedrooms are spacious, spotlessly clean, with comfy beds. We also went to the pub below, the locals was so friendly and the bar staff was outstanding.

The smell of cooking oil just hits you when you open the door. Not an encouraging sign. Mediocre coffee and cakes. Seats dated and uncomfortable. Whole place looks untidy and unkempt Asked lady who was serving where the toilets were. Was directed round to the back of the building to a filthy muddy courtyard only to find there was a handwritten sign on the door saying toilet was closed. Thank goodness there are lovely public toilets just round the corner. What a shame that this seems to be the only cafe Rothbury has on what used to be a lovely Main Street but sadly like so many other towns is showing signs of decline. Will take a picnic and a flask the next time we visit Rothbury!

Saturday night: the bar is full of chavs vaping while people are eating. The staff are totally complicit. This is against the law, but it's the wild west out here and nobody cares. After a while we left as the fumes were giving us a headache. Visible vape clouds everywhere and after a couple of drinks, by 9pm they weren't even hiding the fact they were vaping. This is against the law. A case for the Police and Environmental Health.
