The best restaurants in Rothbury Northumberland North East

I called in just prior to our booking to leave a birthday cake. The staff were so kind and made sure the table that was reserved would be suitable. When we arrived for our lunch they had put balloons on a chair and a banner was on the wall. Our food was delicious and my grandchildren were also made welcome. They made our celebration perfect. Thanks you all the staff 💕💐

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.

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

Unfortunately this is not a proper Indian restaurant anymore but a cafe that sells Indian food, the takeaway food was really great and the service was good but if you're looking for a sit in meal then it's disappointing.

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

Booked The Turks for an overnight break and booked a table for Sunday Lunch . We were shown to our table by one of the waiting staff how took our drinks order and gave us the menu. I opted for Beef turkey and pork , my wife opted for Beef pork and beef again . After a short wait our plates arrived nicely presented ,everything was beautiful, we got an extra gravey boat as we like our dinner swimming. Nothing was too much hassle for any of the staff and we thoroughly enjoyed our experience.

Pleasant lunch with the kids. Mine was a touch over-cooked but the kids rated their chicken as some of the best they'd had. Cartmel sticky toffee pudding was a winner all round. Friendly staff and good service.

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.
