The best restaurants in Northern Parishes Stockton-on-Tees North East

I would never have guessed this pub is part of the Stonegate empire. It really does have the feel of a cosy local where the staff were engaging and helpful and the food was good VFM pub food. Not a gastropub but definitely fit for purpose. We'll be back.

Ordered delivery absolutely appalling, thrown in bag, wrong burger, paid for zinger burger got fillet torn wrap cold lettuce everywhere forced into tiny bag

Is Billingham’s Toby Carvery where mediocre chefs go to die? Today (17/09/24) I had what I can only describe as the most disgusting meal I’ve had prepared by allegedly professional chefs. If I had served such poor quality food to paying customers, I’d throw myself off the restaurant’s roof. The food was over cooked, cold, tasteless and disgusting. I have literally thrown out better quality food that I’d prepared myself. Any self respecting chef would feel embarrassed serving such a poor quality food. The irony is the elderly lady in front of me asked for warm gravy, the carving chef was abrupt and rude to her saying “our gravy is always hot don’t be such a rude old lady”. Well young man, it wasn’t. My beer was warmer! I know that the Toby Carvary chain is cheap and cheerful’ but please chefs have some pride in your cooking and respect for your customers. If today was you at your best, it’s time to resign and find an alternative career. Today’s efforts was inexcusable.

Called here for a couple of pizzas while staying over at the premier inn. Very quick service but the only downside is that they are only taking card payments at the moment.

We have frequented this pub for many years on and off but will not be returning. There are too many dogs if you don't like dogs then DO NOT GO The girls serving the food were all over the dogs and then serving the food and collecting glasses. There is no need to let dogs in the main pub plenty of room outside!

We stopped by here to get some drinks whilst the car was on charge. It's your typical mcdonalds, nothing fancy. We ordered at the machine so no really interaction with staff other than to go up and collect our drinks order.

Typical McDonalds. The staff were friendly and the food good. The McDonads is near the Premier Inn we stayed at so convenient for that.

23/08/2023 Arrived at Greggs today around 11. I have never been so appalled by a manager in my whole entire life. Shouting and yelling at a young lassie in the middle of a store. I have been into this Greggs many of times. Also, been served by this young lassie nearly every day. She is always polite i can never fault her, but by coming in today seeing how the staff are treated it made my stomach churn, I immediately turned around and walked straight out! Don’t think I’ll be back, won’t be giving any of my money to this store no longer. ABSOLUTELY APPALLED!! Just hope the young lassie is fine, no one deserves to be treated like that.

Ordered on the app for quickness, how ironic! Used the drive thru, were given our drinks and mayo and asked to park up to await 2 meals which were for our teenagers. Waited 20 minutes watching several cars coming through the drive thru after having being served. Went in to be told they had no record our our meal and didn't know what had happened. The manager said he couldn't give any discount but would upgrade both meals and add extras. Meanwhile the Indian takeaway we had collected for ourselves previously was getting cold but we waited again and after about 5 minutes they produced our order. On arriving home we found no upgrade had been made and the only extra was a portion of popcorn chicken! We had to heat our Indian food back up before we ate it, but it was by now, lukewarm. Terrible service with no ownership taken an no real apology or explanation.

Called in just after 9 am with my granddaughter as car park pretty empty and drive through fairly empty placed 1 order of pancakes and not many people waiting and thought nice to sit in for a change. fast forward 25 mins, I along with several others asked for our orders, staff apologised and offered refund. However then proceeded to mention they only had one oven working and were doing their best. It would have been nice to have been given the choice after a 25minute wait for “fast food” or leave. Could have been managed better.
