The best restaurants in South Tyneside North East

This friendly pub is the second oldest pub in South Shields and has a wonderful view across the river and out to sea. Their Sunday dinners are delicious easily the best roasts in the area, with all the trimmings and generous helpings. Highly recommended to all.

We booked dinner tonight to celebrate my sisters 50th birthday, this is our ‘go to’ place for Indian food, we love the restaurant and the staff, Shah and the team always make you feel welcome. The food was amazing as always, I always highly recommend Delhi 6 to friends and family due to the continual first class service and food. Now the reason I am posting a review this evening in particular is in fact due to the service, tonight was a busy night for the restaurant, we had ordered our food and drinks and were happily sitting chatting away, a little bit of time had passed when the waiter approached the table with our plates for our main meals, we explained we had not had our starters as yet, this was quickly sorted out and soon our starters arrived, again amazing food! A little bit later we had our mains, one meal was incorrect, however again this was sorted out in a moment, again amazing food! Now my review and comments here are not to be viewed as annoyed/angry/upset, instead my review is that of thanks, it is thanks to the team and Shah and his business partner, they in fact were more concerned over our experience, we reassured them that this was not at all any problem, we in fact had enjoyed a really nice evening celebrating my sisters birthday and enjoying good food, drink and family time, that is all that mattered tonight. I feel at times folk fly off the handle about slow service/mistakes in service etc but i honestly cannot fault any part of this evening. Shah, thank you and thank you to your team, this was the perfect night for my family, please do not feel there was any failing on the part of our service and experience, if anything we were more concerned that you guys were okay, you were run off your feet! For anyone looking for a proper good and tasty Indian food experience, this is the place!

Wolfmann’s is a pretty unique place in South Shields. Great healthy food, lovely surroundings and very nice staff. Our favourites are the Korean Fried Chicken and anything from the sea! There’s a distinctly Asian vibe with lots of the food but they also do great breakfasts, burgers and a fantastic Sunday lunch. There is also a lovely selection of cakes in the cabinet if you fancy something sweet. We need to make sure that good quality neighbourhood eateries like this stay the distance, so if you are looking for somewhere in South Shields that won’t disappoint, definitely try Wolfmann’s!

Best vegan place in South Shields drinks are lush especially the lovely peppermint milkshakes also the cheeses are just too nice

A real gem of a place. Fantastic food, good portions and excellent friendly staff. Nothing was too much trouble. Great value for money.

Fantastic place to visit friendly staff excellent service and quality food would highly recommend this place to visit any time good prices and great service fantastic

Went here for 1st time, Ordered omelette but run out of salad so just had chips, got 1 salt packet and 1 vinegar packet, Quick n friendly service, quite expensive It's was ok so 3/5

Gluten free without the worry- we were told no risk of contamination because everything is gluten free. Chips no different to other places. Batter lighter but lovely & crisp. Curry sauce was lovely! I’m not gluten free but are this with my partner because he is. Really enjoyed our take away.

One of the best family owned cafe's in South Shields. Always a smile when we show up and the food is amazing. Julie and Ian make you feel like you're at home and not in a cafe.

Absolutely amazing portions! Chips were very chunky and tasty. Fish tasted amazing. Excellent menu with plenty to choose.

Let’s be honest, the food is what matters, and in this case it’s beautiful. However, as a reviewer, I need to paint the whole picture. The restaurant is a small, shabby eatery with no proper bar and it’s quite run down. The toilet is directly off the dining room so not ideal. The service is good and the food is tasty and well priced, but if you’re going for a special occasion like a birthday, I’d have to recommend you go somewhere more upmarket. This was a curry place for years and they haven’t spent money on it since. I hope they do well, and I’ll continue to go, but it feels like half a job. Dining out is a treat for most of us and we want the entire experience.

Delicious food, great service and very reasonable. Would definitely recommend this lovely, quirky, coffee shop. Nothing was too much bother for them.

Popped in on my lunch break. I had not pre-ordered, so I opted to get a chicken burger. Service was rather quick, I only waited just under 10 minutes. Food was okay, fries weren't great but still edible and the burger was tasty but I feel it lacked a bit of seasoning. Paid £6 for the meal which I think was pretty good. I will return to order one of their specials soon, because from all accounts they are great.

Greetings, fellow food enthusiasts! I'm thrilled to share my recent culinary escapade to the renowned Wolfmann's Eating House on Sunderland Road in South Shields. After reading so many rave reviews, I couldn't resist a visit, and boy, was it worth the hype! As we stepped into the cozy restaurant, we were instantly charmed by its laid-back ambiance and the groovy tunes playing in the background. The intimate setting, with only six tables, makes booking in advance a must! We noticed a few couples walk in, hoping for a table, but they ended up grabbing seats at the bar. So, word to the wise: book ahead to avoid disappointment! On a chilly evening, the warmth of the restaurant felt like a loving embrace. And although they don't have an alcohol license, the 'bring your own booze' policy is a fun touch. We chose to keep it sober this time, in preparation for the upcoming holiday festivities. Wolfmann's menu, a delightful selection of Asian-inspired dishes, changes weekly, with some specials featured on a board above the bar. You can always sneak a peek at previous menus on their Facebook page to get a taste of what to expect. The friendly staff welcomed us with open arms and promptly took our drink orders while we ogled the mouthwatering menu options. After much debate (and the desire to order everything), I settled on the salt and pepper Tofu with a side of spring rolls. My better half couldn't resist the roast belly pork, accompanied by a generous serving of salt and chilli fries. To our delight, the service was impressively swift, and our food arrived in just 20 minutes! The Tofu was a symphony of flavors and textures, with tender pieces perfectly seasoned and paired with a vibrant mix of fresh greens. The spring rolls were crispy, succulent, and packed with a punch, thanks to the spicy dipping sauce. My wife's roast belly pork was a showstopper, boasting crispy crackling atop melt-in-your-mouth pork, served on a bed of tangy pickled cabbage. The salt and chilli fries were the perfect sidekick, adding a spicy kick and satisfying crunch. In conclusion, our experience at Wolfmann's Eating House was nothing short of spectacular. The combination of a relaxed atmosphere, attentive staff, and, most importantly, divine Asian-inspired dishes make this spot a must-visit in South Shields. Can't wait to return and continue exploring their ever-changing menu! Bon appétit!
