The best restaurants in Northumberland North East

Wonderful lunch, Brilliant food. Lovely staff. Warm and cosy and a fabulous menu. What more could you want.

Very nice staff, food and service. Our best place to rest before getting to newcastle airport 😊

Fish was just a large fish finger. All batter and no fish. Poured the spare oil in my engine. Would not recommend. 😲

Food quality is always better than expected. Service is always nice and friendly. A bit more seasoning and would be perfect

Standards seemed to have plummeted recently, understaffed, bar prices sky high, freezing rooms and shower runs either boiling hot or cold. Shame as stayed here many many times and standards were high then with nothing a bother.

A family run business with a warm welcome, drinks offered straight away along with the menus. The menu offered a bit of everything single meat choice or a trio, I went for the chicken with black pudding with pepper sauce you can have veg or...

Yummmmmmmy. Fabulous find on our travels. This really is a lovely pub. Doesn't serve food all day so check the kitchen times but worth a drink in the bar while you wait for it to start serving. It seemed like quite a locals pub but in no way intimidating and made to feel very welcome. There was a good choice of drinks and some nice real ales. We all had a lovely meal. It is dog friendly so that is a bonus. Would definitely have used again whilst away if we were in the right direction.

Me and my wife visited this place with our good friends, a brilliant atmosphere and brilliant staff they couldn't do more during this awful and confusing situation we are all in at the moment. The service and the food are second to none definately recommend...

Extremely overpriced, which could be justified if the portions were not so small! Cheese scone (small) no cheese in it and just a sprinkle on the top! Soup again in an extremely small bowl! Panini small and mediocre! Advice if you want to charge just under £10 for a toasted sandwich it needs to be exceptional!

Recently taken over after 25yrs, really disappointing, mediocre food and service. This place used to be rammed for lunch yet today was only missing the tumbleweed, waitress miserable, food v average, lukewarm and worst gravy ever, all veg on the plate, never asked once was the food ok, never came and asked us if we wanted more drinks or dessert. I’ve worked in catering and know how hard a good lunch service can be but with only two in the whole place they couldn’t have cared less….bring back hot plates, steaming bowls of veg and good beef gravy 😢

On holiday in the area and thought we’d try here, the pizzas were excellent, the best takeaway pizzas we’ve had. The stuffed crust was also really tasty. Big portion sizes too

One of the really great bacon sandwiches here, but this time we only had time for a coffee. Friendly and competent service as always. Try it - you won't be disappointed

Visited as we’d received a recommendation and were going to theatre nearby. First impressions were excellent, stylishly kitted out and a warm welcome from the staff….then it got even better! Lovely menu (lots of slightly different options too) and when the food arrived it was absolutely delicious and beautifully presented. We really can’t fault anything….and we’re pretty picky! I had the honey chicken and it was so so tasty. The portions sizes are very generous too. The service was excellent and the prices very reasonable indeed. I really hope this restaurant thrives as they’ve thought of everything and deserves to do well. We’ll definitely come back when we’re next in the area. Thank you for a superb meal

Went here for a meal after returning from a week's holiday which we always do if possible unfortunately they are now closing earlier and often they are closed when we return, so disappointing as we really enjoy our meals there. As usual had a lovely meal 😋 staff as usual were great friendly helpful and cheerful, was very sad to hear that they are closing down soon, such a shame as it's a really lovely place excellent food, good quality, and very good price. Hope to call again before we lose you 😟 .

We popped in for lunch while visiting on the Heatherslaw Light Railway. What a perfect addition to an already enjoyable trip. Very friendly, helpful staff. Food was nicely prepared and served promptly with a good range of choices. Nice atmosphere and would recommend.
